40GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2019-06-14
This series contains updates to i40e only.
Aleksandr adds stub functions for Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) to
currently report that it is not supported in i40e. Fixed up the Link
Layer Detection Protocol (LLDP) code to ensure we do not set the LLDP
flag too early before we ensure that we have a successful start. This
also will prevent needles restarting of the device if LLDP did not
change its state with an unsuccessful start.
Piotr bumps up the amount of VLANs that an untrusted VF can implement,
from 8 VLANs to 16. Adds checks to the Virtual Embedded Bridge (VEB)
and channel arrays so access does not exceed the boundary and ensure the
index is below the maximum. Fixed an issue in the driver where we were
not checking the response from the LLDP flag and were returned success
no matter what the value of the response was.
Mitch fixes a variable counter, which can be negative in value so make
it an integer instead of an unsigned-integer.
Doug improves the admin queue log granularity by making it possible to
log only the admin queue descriptors without the entire admin queue
message buffers.
Sergey fixes up the virtchnl code by removing duplicate checks, ensure
the variable type is correct when comparing integers, enhance error and
warning messages to include useful information.
Adam fixes a potential kernel panic when the i40e driver was being bound
to a non-i40e port by adding a check on the BAR size to ensure it is
large enough by reading the highest register.
Jake fixes a statistics error in the "transmit errors" stat, which was
being calculated twice.
Gustavo A. R. Silva adds a fall-through code comment to help with
compiler checks.
v2: Fixed the return values wrapped in parenthesis in patch 8 and
cleaned up the commit message in patch 12 so the Gustavo does
not repeat himself.

README
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.
