====================
add octeon_ep_vf driver
This driver implements networking functionality of Marvell's Octeon
PCI Endpoint NIC VF.
This driver support following devices:
* Network controller: Cavium, Inc. Device b203
* Network controller: Cavium, Inc. Device b403
* Network controller: Cavium, Inc. Device b103
* Network controller: Cavium, Inc. Device b903
* Network controller: Cavium, Inc. Device ba03
* Network controller: Cavium, Inc. Device bc03
* Network controller: Cavium, Inc. Device bd03
Changes:
V7:
- Separated octep_vf_get_if_stats from octep_vf_main.h to later patch
in [1/8]
- Moved introducing ndo_ops from [3/8] to [5/8]
V6: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240207065207.3092004-1-srasheed@marvell.com/
- Removed reuse of netif_tx_stop_all_queues, called implicitly in
netif_tx_disable, when stopping netdev
- Corrected error jump labels to have proper action-specific names in
probe function
- Removed singlethreaded workqueue implementation, since only tx
timeout task is run. Run the same in the system workqueue
- netdev_hold when tx_timeout happens to protect against free_netdev
if race occurs between rmmod and a tx timeout. netdev_put the
reference when timeout task ends to progress freeing netdev
V5: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240129050254.3047778-1-srasheed@marvell.com/
- Changed unchecked return types to void and removed unnecessary
initializations in [2/8] patch.
V4: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240108124213.2966536-1-srasheed@marvell.com/
- Moved some stats from ethtool and added more to ndo_get_stats64
- Replaced code in IQ full check function to use helper from
net/netdev_queues.h
- Refactored code so that NETDEV_TX_BUSY is avoided
V3: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240105203823.2953604-1-srasheed@marvell.com/
- Removed UINT64_MAX, which is unused
- Replaced masks and ULL declarations with GENMASK_ULL(), ULL() and
other linux/bits.h macros, corrected declarations to conform to xmas tree format in patch [2/8]
- Moved vfree and vzalloc null pointer casting corrections to patch
[3/8], and corrected return values to follow standard kernel error codes in same
- Set static budget of 64 for tx completion processing in NAPI
- Replaces napi_complete and build_skb APIs to napi_complete_done and
napi_build_skb APIs respectively
- Replaced code with helper from net/netdev_queues.h to wake queues in TX completion
processing
- Removed duplicate reporting of TX/RX packets/bytes, which is already
done during ndo_get_stats64
V2: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20231223134000.2906144-1-srasheed@marvell.com/
- Removed linux/version.h header file from inclusion in
octep_vf_main.c
- Corrected Makefile entry to include building octep_vf_mbox.c in
[6/8] patch.
- Removed redundant vzalloc pointer cast and vfree pointer check in
[6/8] patch.
V1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20231221092844.2885872-1-srasheed@marvell.com/

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.
