The ThunderX NIC has set of registers which allows to configure filter policy for ingress packets. There are three possible regimes of filtering multicasts, broadcasts and unicasts: accept all, reject all and accept filter allowed only. Current implementation has enum with all of them and two generic macro for enabling filtering et all (CAM_ACCEPT) and enabling/disabling broadcast packets, which also should be corrected in order to represent register bits properly. All these values are private for driver and there is no need to ‘publish’ them via header file. This commit is to move filtering register manipulation values from header file into source with explicit assignment of exact register values to them to be used while register configuring.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
