David S. Miller 7d982567f4 mlx5 and mlx5e updates 2017-01-19
This series includes some updates for mlx5 core and mlx5e netdevice driver.
 
 From Leon, a small fix that remove an unnecessary print.
 
 From Eli Cohen, a fix to the FW version printout in case of internal error.
 
 From Eugenia Emantayev, two patches, the 1st adds mlx5 1pps (pulse per
 second) mlx5 infrastructure support and the 2nd adds the necessary bits
 for mlx5e ptp logic and structures.
 
 From Mohamad, add support for s-tagged packet receive when in promiscuous
 mode.
 
 Form Gal Pressman, MCAM (Management capabilities mask register) and PCAM
 (Ports capabilities mask register) registers infrastructure, those
 registers are needed in order to query the different statistics registers
 support in FW, in order for the driver to enable/disable query and
 reporting them back to user.  On top of this infrastructure we've exposed
 new set of statistics groups:
    - MPCNT: Physical layer statistical counters (For symbol errors)
    - PPCNT: PCIe performance counters
 
 In addition to the statistics capabilities series we've moved the mlx5 HCA
 capabilities fields to a dedicated struct under the driver private data.
 
 At the end a small patch to update & query statistics in the most desired
 order.
 
 Thanks,
 Saeed.

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.
