Sieng Piaw Liew says: ==================== bcm63xx_enet: major makeover of driver This patch series aim to improve the bcm63xx_enet driver by integrating the latest networking features, i.e. batched rx processing, BQL, build_skb, etc. The newer enetsw SoCs are found to be able to do unaligned rx DMA by adding NET_IP_ALIGN padding which, combined with these patches, improved packet processing performance by ~50% on BCM6328. Older non-enetsw SoCs still benefit mainly from rx batching. Performance improvement of ~30% is observed on BCM6333. The BCM63xx SoCs are designed for routers. As such, having BQL is beneficial as well as trivial to add. v3: * Simplify xmit_more patch by not moving around the code needlessly. * Fix indentation in xmit_more patch. * Fix indentation in build_skb patch. * Split rx ring cleanup patch from build_skb patch and precede build_skb patch for better understanding, as suggested by Florian Fainelli. v2: * Add xmit_more support and rx loop improvisation patches. * Moved BQL netdev_reset_queue() to bcm_enet_stop()/bcm_enetsw_stop() functions as suggested by Florian Fainelli. * Improved commit messages. ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210106144208.1935-1-liew.s.piaw@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org> |

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.
