David S. Miller 93dda1e0d6 Merge branch 'qed-RDMA-and-infrastructure-for-iWARP'
Yuval Mintz says:

====================
qed*: RDMA and infrastructure for iWARP

This series focuses on RDMA in general with emphasis on required changes
toward adding iWARP support. The vast majority of the changes introduced
are in qed/qede, with a couple of small changes to qedr
[mentioned below].

The infrastructure changes:
 - Patch #1 adds the ability to pass PBL memory externally for a newly
created chain.
 - Patches #4, #5 rename qede_roce.[ch] into qede_rdma.[ch] + change
prefixes from _roce_ to _rdma_, as the API between qede and qedr is
agnostic to the variant of the RDMA protocol used. These patches also
touch qedr [basically to align it with the renaming, nothing more].
 - Patch #7 replaces the current SPQ async mechanism into serving
registered callbacks [before adding iWARP which would add another client
in need of this sort of functionallity].

The non-infrastrucutre changes:
 - Patches #2, #3 contain DCB-related changes to better align RDMA with
configured DCB.
 - Patch #6 contains a minor [mostly theoretical fix] to release flow.

Changes from previous versions
------------------------------
 - V4: This is actually a repost of V3 due to some confusion regarding
   the sent cover-letter
 - V3: Add commit log message in #4 indicating change in header inclusion
 - V2: Add several inclusion into qede_rdma.h to have proper declarations
   of all variable types used in it

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.
