 Support 4 ports VF LAG, part 2/2
 
 This series continues the series[1] "Support 4 ports VF LAG, part1/2".
 This series adds support for 4 ports VF LAG (single FDB E-Switch).
 
 This series of patches refactoring LAG code that make assumptions
 about VF LAG supporting only two ports and then enable 4 ports VF LAG.
 
 Patch 1:
 - Fix for ib rep code
 Patches 2-5:
 - Refactors LAG layer.
 Patches 6-7:
 - Block LAG types which doesn't support 4 ports.
 Patch 8:
 - Enable 4 ports VF LAG.
 
 This series specifically allows HCAs with 4 ports to create a VF LAG
 with only 4 ports. It is not possible to create a VF LAG with 2 or 3
 ports using HCAs that have 4 ports.
 
 Currently, the Merged E-Switch feature only supports HCAs with 2 ports.
 However, upcoming patches will introduce support for HCAs with 4 ports.
 
 In order to activate VF LAG a user can execute:
 
 devlink dev eswitch set pci/0000:08:00.0 mode switchdev
 devlink dev eswitch set pci/0000:08:00.1 mode switchdev
 devlink dev eswitch set pci/0000:08:00.2 mode switchdev
 devlink dev eswitch set pci/0000:08:00.3 mode switchdev
 ip link add name bond0 type bond
 ip link set dev bond0 type bond mode 802.3ad
 ip link set dev eth2 master bond0
 ip link set dev eth3 master bond0
 ip link set dev eth4 master bond0
 ip link set dev eth5 master bond0
 
 Where eth2, eth3, eth4 and eth5 are net-interfaces of pci/0000:08:00.0
 pci/0000:08:00.1 pci/0000:08:00.2 pci/0000:08:00.3 respectively.
 
 User can verify LAG state and type via debugfs:
 /sys/kernel/debug/mlx5/0000\:08\:00.0/lag/state
 /sys/kernel/debug/mlx5/0000\:08\:00.0/lag/type

This series continues the series[1] "Support 4 ports VF LAG, part1/2".
This series adds support for 4 ports VF LAG (single FDB E-Switch).

This series of patches refactoring LAG code that make assumptions
about VF LAG supporting only two ports and then enable 4 ports VF LAG.

Patches 2-5:
- Refactors LAG layer.
Patches 6-7:

This series specifically allows HCAs with 4 ports to create a VF LAG
with only 4 ports. It is not possible to create a VF LAG with 2 or 3

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.
