Add an interface for the rate limiting feature which allows to add, remove and modify a QAT SLA (Service Level Agreement). This adds a new sysfs attribute group, `qat_rl`, which can be accessed from /sys/bus/pci/devices/<BUS:DEV:FUNCTION> with the following hierarchy: |-+ qat_rl |---- id (RW) # SLA identifier |---- cir (RW) # Committed Information Rate |---- pir (RW) # Peak Information Rate |---- srv (RW) # Service to be rate limited |---- rp (RW) (HEX) # Ring pairs to be rate limited |---- cap_rem (RW) # Remaining capability for a service |---- sla_op (WO) # Allows to perform an operation on an SLA The API works by setting the appropriate RW attributes and then issuing a command through the `sla_op`. For example, to create an SLA, a user needs to input the necessary data into the attributes cir, pir, srv and rp and then write into `sla_op` the command `add` to execute the operation. The API also provides `cap_rem` attribute to get information about the remaining device capability within a certain service which is required when setting an SLA.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. 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.
