Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== 40GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2017-09-29 This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf only. Jake provides several of the changes starting with the renaming of a variable to clarify what the value is actually calculating. Found we were misusing the __I40E_RECOVERY_PENDING bit to determine when we should actually request a new IRQ in i40e_setup_misc_vector(), which lead to a design mistake, so to resolve the issue, use a separate state bit for miscellaneous IRQ setup and fix up the design while we are at it. Cleaned up the old legacy PM support in the driver since we support the newer generic PM callbacks. Fixed a failure to hibernate issue, where on some platforms with a large number of CPUs, we would allocate many IRQ vectors which we would try to migrate to CPU0 when hibernating. Sudheer cleans up a check for unqualified module inside i40e_up_complete() because the link state information is in flux at time, so log messages are getting logged with incorrect link state information. Also provided additional log message cleanups and simplify member variable access in the printing of the link messages. Mariusz relaxes the firmware check since Fortville and Fort Park NICs can and do have different firmware versions, so only warn for older Fortville firmware. Fixed an errata with a flow director statistic that was not wrapping as expected, simply reset after reading. Mitch prevents consternation by lowering the log level to debug on a message seen regularly on VF reset or unload, which is meaningless under normal circumstances. Refactor the firmware version checking since Fortville and Fort Park devices can have different firmware versions. Alan fixes a ring to vector mapping, where the past implementation attempted to map each Tx and Rx ring to its own vector, however we use combined queues so we should be mapping the Tx/Rx rings together on one vector. Adds the ability for the VF to request a different number of queues allocated to it. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> |

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.
