====================
40GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2018-01-26

This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf.

Michal updates the driver to pass critical errors from the firmware to
the caller.

Patryk fixes an issue of creating multiple identical filters with the
same location, by simply moving the functions so that we remove the
existing filter and then add the new filter.

Paweł adds back in the ability to turn off offloads when VLAN is set for
the VF driver.  Fixed an issue where the number of TC queue pairs was
exceeding MSI-X vectors count, causing messages about invalid TC mapping
and wrong selected Tx queue.

Alex cleans up the i40e/i40evf_set_itr_per_queue() by dropping all the
unneeded pointer chases.  Puts to use the reg_idx value, which was going
unused, so that we can avoid having to compute the vector every time
throughout the driver.

Upasana enable the driver to display LLDP information on the vSphere Web
Client by exposing DCB parameters.

Alice converts our flags from 32 to 64 bit size, since we have added
more flags.

Dave implements a private ethtool flag to disable the processing of LLDP
packets by the firmware, so that the firmware will not consume LLDPDU
and cause them to be sent up the stack.

Alan adds a mechanism for detecting/storing the flag for processing of
LLDP packets by the firmware, so that its current state is persistent
across reboots/reloads of the driver.

Avinash fixes kdump with i40e due to resource constraints.  We were
enabling VMDq and iWARP when we just have a single CPU, which was
starving kdump for the lack of IRQs.

Jake adds support to program the fragmented IPv4 input set PCTYPE.
Fixed the reported masks to properly report that the entire field is
masked, since we had accidentally swapped the mask values for the IPv4
addresses with the L4 port numbers.

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.
