Jiri Pirko says: ==================== mlxsw: Introduce TC Flower offload using TCAM This patchset introduces support for offloading TC cls_flower and actions to Spectrum TCAM-base policy engine. The patchset contains patches to allow work with flexible keys and actions which are used in Spectrum TCAM. It also contains in-driver infrastructure for offloading TC rules to TCAM HW. The TCAM management code is simple and limited for now. It is going to be extended as a follow-up work. The last patch uses the previously introduced infra to allow to implement cls_flower offloading. Initially, only limited set of match-keys and only a drop and forward actions are supported. As a dependency, this patchset introduces parman - priority array area manager - as a library. v1->v2: - patch11: - use __set_bit and __test_and_clear_bit as suggested by DaveM - patch16: - Added documentation to the API functions as suggested by Tom Herbert - patch17: - use __set_bit and __clear_bit as suggested by DaveM ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

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.
