David S. Miller e32f55f373 Merge branch '10GbE' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jkirsher/next-queue
Jeff Kirsher says:

====================
L2 Fwd Offload & 10GbE Intel Driver Updates 2018-07-09

This patch series is meant to allow support for the L2 forward offload, aka
MACVLAN offload without the need for using ndo_select_queue.

The existing solution currently requires that we use ndo_select_queue in
the transmit path if we want to associate specific Tx queues with a given
MACVLAN interface. In order to get away from this we need to repurpose the
tc_to_txq array and XPS pointer for the MACVLAN interface and use those as
a means of accessing the queues on the lower device. As a result we cannot
offload a device that is configured as multiqueue, however it doesn't
really make sense to configure a macvlan interfaced as being multiqueue
anyway since it doesn't really have a qdisc of its own in the first place.

The big changes in this set are:
  Allow lower device to update tc_to_txq and XPS map of offloaded MACVLAN
  Disable XPS for single queue devices
  Replace accel_priv with sb_dev in ndo_select_queue
  Add sb_dev parameter to fallback function for ndo_select_queue
  Consolidated ndo_select_queue functions that appeared to be duplicates

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.
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.
