Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== 100GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2019-03-25 This series contains updates to the ice driver only. Victor updates the ice driver to be able to update the VSI queue configuration dynamically, by providing the ability to increase or decrease the VSI's number of queues. Michal fixes an issue when the VM starts or the VF driver is reloaded, the VLAN switch rule was lost (i.e. not added), so ensure it gets added in these cases. Brett updates the driver to support link events over the admin receive queue, instead of polling link events. Maciej refactors the code a bit to introduce a new function to fetch the receiver buffer and do the DMA synchronization to reduce the code duplication. Also added ice_can_reuse_rx_page() to verify whether the page can be reused so that in the future, we can use this check elsewhere in the driver. Additional driver optimizations so that we can drop the ice_pull_tail() altogether. Added support for bulk updates of refcount instead of doing it one by one. Refactored the page counting and buffer recycling so that we can use this code to clean up receive buffers when there is no skb allocated, like XDP. Added DMA_ATTR_WEAK_ORDERING and DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC attributes to the DMA API during the mapping operations on the receive side, so that nonx86 platforms will be able to sync with what is being used (2k buffers) instead of the entire page. Dave fixes the driver to perform the most intrusive of the resets requested and clear the other request bits so that we do not end up with repeated reset, after reset. Bruce adds a iterator macro to clean up several for() loops. Chinh modifies the packet flags to be more generic so that they can be used for both receive and transmit. ==================== 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.
