We are adding the Cavium OCTEON-III network driver. Since interacting
with the input and output queues is done via special CPU local memory,
we also need to add support to the MIPS/Octeon architecture code. The
four patch set to add this prerequisite code has been split out to a
seperate patch set sent to the mips-linux list.
A separate pull request was recently done by Steven Hill for the
firmware required by the driver.
Changes in v8:
o Fixed locking in bgx port functions as noted by davem.
o Corrected SPDX-License-Identifier tags.
o Split driver from prerequisite patches.
Changes in v7:
o There was no v7, we go to v8 to synchronize version numbers with
prerequisites.
Changes in v6:
o Added back cleanup patch for previous generation SoC "staging"
driver, as Greg K-H acked it.
o Moved FPA driver to drivers/net/ethernet/cavium/octeon as it is
currently only used by the octeon3-ethernet driver.
o Many code formatting fixes as noted by davem.
Changes in v5:
o Removed cleanup patch for previous generation SoC "staging" driver,
as it will be sent as a follow-on.
o Fixed kernel doc formatting in all patches.
o Removed redundant licensing text boilerplate.
o Reviewed-by: header added to 2/7.
o Rewrote locking code in 3/7 to eliminate inline asm.
Changes in v4:
o Use phy_print_status() instead of open coding the equivalent.
o Print warning on phy mode mismatch.
o Improve dt-bindings and add Acked-by.
Changes in v3:
o Fix PKI (RX path) initialization to work with little endian kernel.
Changes in v2:
o Cleanup and use of standard bindings in the device tree bindings
document.
o Added (hopefully) clarifying comments about several OCTEON
architectural peculiarities.
o Removed unused testing code from the driver.
o Removed some module parameters that already default to the proper
values.
o KConfig cleanup, including testing on x86_64, arm64 and mips.
o Fixed breakage to the driver for previous generation of OCTEON SoCs (in
the staging directory still).
o Verified bisectability of the patch set.
