[PATCH 1/2] staging: fsl-dpaa2/eth: convert documentation to .rst format

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Convert the DPAA2 Ethernet driver documentation to .rst format
and rename the file accordingly.
Also add a SPDX tag to the new rst file.

 Unlike regular NICs, in the DPAA2 architecture there is no single hardware block
 representing network interfaces; instead, several separate hardware resources
 concur to provide the networking functionality:
-        - network interfaces
-        - queues, channels
-        - buffer pools
-        - MAC/PHY
