The last meaningful change to this driver was made by Jon in 2011.
As much as we'd like to believe that this is because the code is
perfect the chances are nobody is using this hardware.
Because of the size of this driver there is a nontrivial maintenance
cost to keeping this code around, in the last 2 years we're averaging
more than 1 change a month. Some of which require nontrivial review
effort, see commit 877fe9d49b ("Revert "drivers/net/ethernet/neterion/vxge:
Fix a use-after-free bug in vxge-main.c"") for example.
Let's try to remove this driver. In general, IMHO, we need to
establish a clear path for shedding dead code. It will be hard
to unless we have some experience trying to delete stuff.

This is the can327 driver. It does a surprisingly good job at turning
ELM327 based OBD-II interfaces into cheap CAN interfaces for simple
homebrew projects.

Looks like almost all changes to this driver had been tree-wide
refactoring since git era begun. There is one commit from Al
15 years ago which could potentially be fixing a real bug.
The driver is using virt_to_bus() and is a real magnet for pointless
cleanups. It seems unlikely to have real users. Let's try to shed
this maintenance burden.

Two issues were observed in the ReST doc added by commit c3a0addefb
("docs: ctucanfd: CTU CAN FD open-source IP core documentation.")
with Sphinx versions 2.4.4 and 4.5.0.
The plain "figure" directive broke "make pdfdocs" due to a missing
PDF figure. For conversion of SVG -> PDF to work, the "kernel-figure"
directive, which is an extension for kernel documentation, should
be used instead.
The directive of "code:: raw" causes a warning from both
"make htmldocs" and "make pdfdocs", which reads:
[...]/can/ctu/ctucanfd-driver.rst:75: WARNING: Pygments lexer name
'raw' is not known
A plain literal-block marker should suffice where no syntax
highlighting is intended.
Fix the issues by using suitable directive and marker.

Commit a296d665ea ("ixgbe: Add ethtool support to enable 2.5 and 5.0
Gbps support") introduced suppression of the advertisement of NBASE-T
speeds by default, according to Todd Fujinaka to accommodate customers
with network switches which could not cope with advertised NBASE-T
speeds, as posted in the E1000-devel mailing list:
https://sourceforge.net/p/e1000/mailman/message/37106269/
However, the suppression was not documented at all, nor was how to
enable NBASE-T support.
Properly document the NBASE-T suppression and how to enable NBASE-T

Implement support for pushing vlan header into untagged packet on ingress
of port that has pvid configured and support for popping vlan on egress of
port that has the matching vlan configured as untagged. To support such
configurations packet reformat contexts of {INSERT|REMOVE}_HEADER types are
created per such vlan and saved to struct mlx5_esw_bridge_vlan which allows
all FDB entries on particular vlan to share single packet reformat
instance. When initializing FDB entries with pvid or untagged vlan type set
its mlx5_flow_act->pkt_reformat action accordingly.
Flush all flows when removing vlan from port. This is necessary because
even though software bridge removes all FDB entries before removing their
vlan, mlx5 bridge implementation deletes their corresponding flow entries
from hardware in asynchronous workqueue task, which will cause firmware
error if vlan packet reformat context is deleted before all flows that
point to it.

Hardware supported by mlx5 driver doesn't provide learning and requires the
driver to emulate all switch-like behavior in software. As such, all
packets by default go through miss path, appear on representor and get to
software bridge, if it is the upper device of the representor. This causes
bridge to process packet in software, learn the MAC address to FDB and send
SWITCHDEV_FDB_ADD_TO_DEVICE event to all subscribers.
In order to offload FDB entries in mlx5, register switchdev notifier
callback and implement support for both 'added_by_user' and dynamic FDB
entry SWITCHDEV_FDB_ADD_TO_DEVICE events asynchronously using new
mlx5_esw_bridge_offloads->wq ordered workqueue. In workqueue callback
offload the ingress rule (matching FDB entry MAC as packet source MAC) and
egress table rule (matching FDB entry MAC as destination MAC). For ingress
table rule also match source vport to ensure that only traffic coming from
expected bridge port is matched by offloaded rule. Save all the relevant
FDB entry data in struct mlx5_esw_bridge_fdb_entry instance and insert the
instance in new mlx5_esw_bridge->fdb_list list (for traversing all entries
by software ageing implementation in following patch) and in new
mlx5_esw_bridge->fdb_ht hash table for fast retrieval. Notify the bridge
that FDB entry has been offloaded by sending SWITCHDEV_FDB_OFFLOADED
notification.

The documentation file used to be written in markdown format but was
converted to reStructuredText (rst).
The converted file doesn't keep up with rst format requirements which
results in hard-to-read text.
This patch fixes the formatting of the file. The patch also
* Highlights and emphasizes some lines to improve readability
* Rephrases some hard-to-understand text
* Updates outdated function descriptions.
* Removes TSO description which falsely claims the driver supports it

Probably because the original file was pre-processed by some
tool, both i40e.rst and iavf.rst files are using this character:
- U+2013 ('–'): EN DASH
meaning an hyphen when calling a command line application, which
is obviously wrong. So, replace them by an hyphen, ensuring
that it will be properly displayed as literals when building
the documentation.

Currently each packet inserted in eswitch is tagged with a internal
metadata to indicate source vport. Metadata tagging is not always
needed. Metadata insertion is needed for multi-port RoCE, failover
between representors and stacked devices. In many other cases,
metadata enablement is not needed.
Metadata insertion slows down the packet processing rate of the E-switch
when it is in switchdev mode.
Below table show performance gain with metadata disabled for VXLAN
offload rules in both SMFS and DMFS steering mode on ConnectX-5 device.
----------------------------------------------
| steering | metadata | pkt size | rx pps |
| mode | | | (million) |
----------------------------------------------
| smfs | disabled | 128Bytes | 42 |
----------------------------------------------
| smfs | enabled | 128Bytes | 36 |
----------------------------------------------
| dmfs | disabled | 128Bytes | 42 |
----------------------------------------------
| dmfs | enabled | 128Bytes | 36 |
----------------------------------------------
Hence, allow user to disable metadata using driver specific devlink
parameter. Metadata setting of the eswitch is applicable only for the
switchdev mode.
Example to show and disable metadata before changing eswitch mode:
$ devlink dev param show pci/0000:06:00.0 name esw_port_metadata
pci/0000:06:00.0:
name esw_port_metadata type driver-specific
values:
cmode runtime value true
$ devlink dev param set pci/0000:06:00.0 \
name esw_port_metadata value false cmode runtime
$ devlink dev eswitch set pci/0000:06:00.0 mode switchdev

Here is the "big" set of staging and IIO driver patches for 5.12-rc1.
Nothing really huge in here, the number of staging tree patches has gone
down for a bit, maybe there's only so much churn to happen in here at
the moment.
The IIO changes are:
- new drivers
- new DT bindings
- new iio driver features
with full details in the shortlog.
The staging driver patches are just a lot of tiny coding style cleanups,
along with some semi-larger hikey driver cleanups as those are _almost_
good enough to get out of the staging tree, but will probably have to
wait until 5.13 to have happen.
All of these have been in linux-next with no reported issues.

=================
This patchset introduces support for mlx5 subfunction (SF).
A subfunction is a lightweight function that has a parent PCI function on
which it is deployed. mlx5 subfunction has its own function capabilities
and its own resources. This means a subfunction has its own dedicated
queues(txq, rxq, cq, eq). These queues are neither shared nor stolen from
the parent PCI function.
When subfunction is RDMA capable, it has its own QP1, GID table and rdma
resources neither shared nor stolen from the parent PCI function.
A subfunction has dedicated window in PCI BAR space that is not shared
with the other subfunctions or parent PCI function. This ensures that all
class devices of the subfunction accesses only assigned PCI BAR space.
A Subfunction supports eswitch representation through which it supports tc
offloads. User must configure eswitch to send/receive packets from/to
subfunction port.
Subfunctions share PCI level resources such as PCI MSI-X IRQs with
their other subfunctions and/or with its parent PCI function.
Patch summary:

Patch-3 adds port add and delete driver callbacks
Patch-4 adds port function state get and set callbacks
Patch-5 mlx5 vhca event notifier support to distribute subfunction
state change notification
Patch-6 adds SF auxiliary device
Patch-7 adds SF auxiliary driver
Patch-8 prepares eswitch to handler SF vport
Patch-9 adds eswitch helpers to add/remove SF vport

Patch-11 implements devlink port function get/set callbacks
Patch-12 to 14 adds documentation
Patch-12 added mlx5 port function documentation
Patch-13 adds subfunction documentation
Patch-14 adds mlx5 subfunction documentation
Subfunction support is discussed in detail in RFC [1] and [2].
RFC [1] and extension [2] describes requirements, design and proposed
plumbing using devlink, auxiliary bus and sysfs for systemd/udev
support. Functionality of this patchset is best explained using real
examples further below.
overview:
--------
A subfunction can be created and deleted by a user using devlink port
add/delete interface.
A subfunction can be configured using devlink port function attribute
before its activated.
When a subfunction is activated, it results in an auxiliary device on
the host PCI device where it is deployed. A driver binds to the
auxiliary device that further creates supported class devices.
example subfunction usage sequence:
-----------------------------------
Change device to switchdev mode:
$ devlink dev eswitch set pci/0000:06:00.0 mode switchdev
Add a devlink port of subfunction flavour:
$ devlink port add pci/0000:06:00.0 flavour pcisf pfnum 0 sfnum 88
Configure mac address of the port function:
$ devlink port function set ens2f0npf0sf88 hw_addr 00:00:00:00:88:88
Now activate the function:
$ devlink port function set ens2f0npf0sf88 state active
Now use the auxiliary device and class devices:
$ devlink dev show
pci/0000:06:00.0
auxiliary/mlx5_core.sf.4
$ ip link show

$ devlink port function set ens2f0npf0sf88 state inactive
Now delete the subfunction port:
