Provide support for the Nvidia MSN4800-XX line cards for MSN4800 Ethernet modular switch system, providing a high performance switching solution for Enterprise Data Centers (EDC) for building Ethernet based clusters, High-Performance Computing (HPC) and embedded environments. Initial version provides support for line card type MSN4800-C16. This type of line card is equipped with: - Lattice CPLD device, used for system and ports control. - four Nvidia gearbox devices, used for port splitting. - FPGA device, used for gearboxes management. - 16x100G QSFP28 ports. - hotpswap controllers, voltage regulators, analog-to-digital convertors, nvram devices. - status LED. During initialization driver creates: - line card's I2C tree through "i2c-mux-mlxcpd" driver. - line card's LED objects through "leds-mlxreg" driver. - line card's CPLD register space input / output "hwmon" attributes for line control and monitoring through "mlxreg-io" driver. These attributes provide CPLD and FPAG versioning, control for upgradable components burning, NVRAM devices write protection, line card revision, line card power consuming, line card reset cause indication, etcetera. Lattice CPLD device and nvram devices are feeding from auxiliary power domain and accessible, when line card is powered off. These devices are connected by line card driver probing routine, invoked after line card security verification is done by hardware and event lc#n_verified is received for line card located in slot #n. Gearboxes, FPGA, hotpswap controllers, voltage regulators, analog-to-digital convertors are feeding from main power domain. These devices are connected after power good event "lc#n_powered" is received for line card located in slot #n. The driver 'mlxreg-lc' is driven by 'mlxreg-hotplug' driver following relevant "hotplug" events.

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.
