mainlining shenanigans
Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== 40GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2018-02-26 This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf only. Mariusz adds a new ethtool private flag for forcing true link state with the requested changes from Jakub Kicinski. Paweł fixes an issue where we were double locking the same resource which would generate a kernel panic after bringing an interface up for i40evf. Alan modifies both drivers to use software values to determine if there are packets stalled on the ring with the added benefit of being less CPU intensive since we do not need to reach into the hardware to get the values. Colin Ian King provides a few fixes detected by Coverity, first was to pass a struct by reference versus by value to be more efficient. Then verify the VSI pointer is not NULL before trying to dereference it. Cleaned up redundant checks that always return true. Dan Carpenter fixes over indented lines of code. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> |

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.
