Ronak Doshi says: ==================== vmxnet3: upgrade to version 7 vmxnet3 emulation has recently added several new features including support for uniform passthrough(UPT). To make UPT work vmxnet3 has to be enhanced as per the new specification. This patch series extends the vmxnet3 driver to leverage these new features. Compatibility is maintained using existing vmxnet3 versioning mechanism as follows: - new features added to vmxnet3 emulation are associated with new vmxnet3 version viz. vmxnet3 version 7. - emulation advertises all the versions it supports to the driver. - during initialization, vmxnet3 driver picks the highest version number supported by both the emulation and the driver and configures emulation to run at that version. In particular, following changes are introduced: Patch 1: This patch introduces utility macros for vmxnet3 version 7 comparison and updates Copyright information. Patch 2: This patch adds new capability registers to fine control enablement of individual features based on emulation and passthrough. Patch 3: This patch adds support for large passthrough BAR register. Patch 4: This patch adds support for out of order rx completion processing. Patch 5: This patch introduces new command to set ring buffer sizes to pass this information to the hardware. Patch 6: For better performance, hardware has a requirement to limit number of TSO descriptors. This patch adds that support. Patch 7: With vmxnet3 version 7, new descriptor fields are used to indicate encapsulation offload. Patch 8: With all vmxnet3 version 7 changes incorporated in the vmxnet3 driver, with this patch, the driver can configure emulation to run at vmxnet3 version 7. Changes in v2->v3: - use correct byte ordering for ringBufSize Changes in v2: - use local rss_fields variable for the rss capability checks in patch 2 ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220608032353.964-1-doshir@vmware.com Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com> |

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.
