David S. Miller f9b6ae29ae mlx5-updates-2018-01-19
From: Or Gerlitz <ogerlitz@mellanox.com>
 =======
 First six patches of this series further enhances the mlx5 hairpin support.
 The first two patches deal with using different hairpin instances
 for flows whose packets have different priorities to align with the port
 TX QoS model. The next four patches allow us to do HW spreading
 of flows over a set of hairpin pairs using RSS. The last two patches
 change the driver to also set the size of the HW hairpin queues.
 ========
 
 Next four patches from Eran Ben Elisha <eranbe@mellanox.com>:
 Add more debug data for TX timeout handling, and further enhance and optimize
 TX timeout handling upon lost interrupts, which adds a mechanism for explicitly
 polling EQ in case of a TX timeout in order to recover from a lost interrupt.
 If this is not the case (no pending EQEs), perform a channels full recovery as
 usual.
 
 From Kamal Heib <kamalh@mellanox.com>, Two patches to extend the stats group API
 to have an update_stats() callback which will be used to fetch the hardware or
 software counters data, this will improve the current API and reduce code
 duplication.
 
 From Gal Pressman <galp@mellanox.com>, Last patch, Add likely to the common RX checksum
 flow.
 
 Thanks,
 Saeed.

README

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.
