Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== 1GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2017-10-10 This series contains updates to e1000e and igb. Benjamin Poirier provides several fixes for e1000e, starting with a correction to the return status which was always returning success even if it was not successful. Fixed code comments to reflect the actual code behavior. Fixed the conditional test for the correct return value. Fixed a potential race condition reported by Lennart Sorensen, where the single flag get_link_status is used to signal two different states. Sasha fixes a buffer overrun for i219 devices, where the chipset had reduced the round-trip latency for the LAN controller DMA accesses which in some high performance cases caused a buffer overrun while processing the DMA transactions. Willem de Bruijn changes the default behavior of e1000e to use the burst mode settings by default unless the user specifies the receive interrupt delay (RxIntDelay). Florian Fainelli updates the driver to differentiate between when e1000e_put_txbuf() is called from normal reclamation or when a DMA mapping failure to make the driver more "drop monitor friendly". Christophe JAILLET fixes a potential NULL pointer dereference by properly returning -ENOMEM on memory allocation failures. ==================== 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.
