Maxime Chevallier says: ==================== net: mvpp2: Classifier updates and cleanups In preparation for the future addition of classification offload support, this series cleans-up the current code dealing with the classification engines. As of today, the classification code only deals with RSS, which is a very narrow use-case when considering all of the classifier's features. This lead to design and naming decisions that don't really stand when considering using more classification features. This series therefore includes quite a lot a renaming of functions and macros, and tries to make the naming schemes more consistent and the code more readable. The debugfs interface that allows reading the various Parsing and Classification engines has been cleaned-up and made more generic, allowing to read the Flow Table and C2 engine hit counters on a per-entry basis. The Classifier itself has been made more robust by introducing the lu_type field in classification lookups, that prevents false-positive matches in the future. We also initialise the various engine in a more extensive and less error-prone way by assining default values to all entries in the C2 and Flow table. This is a pretty big series considering it's mostly cleanup, but my goal is to make the future series that will contain new big features easier to review, focusing on the real logic. Besides the debugfs interface, this series doesn't intend to introduce any new features or change in behaviours. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> |

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.
