Jeff Kirsher says:

====================
40GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2017-04-19

This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf only, most notable being
the addition of trace points for BPF programs.

Tobias Klauser updates i40evf to use net_device stats struct instead
of a local private copy.

Preethi updates the VF driver to not enable receive checksum offload by
default for tunneled packets.

Alex fixes an issue he introduced when he converted the code over to
using the length field to determine if a descriptor was done or not.

Mitch adds the ability to dump additional information on the VFs, which
is not available through 'ip link show' using debugfs.

Scott adds trace points to the drivers so that BPF programs can be
attached for feature testing and verification.

Jingjing adds admin queue functions for Pipeline Personalization Profile
commands.

Jake does most of the heavy lifting in this series, starting with the
a reduction in the scope of the RTNL lock being held while resetting VFs
to allow multiple PFs to reset in a timely manner.  Factored out the
direct queue modification so that we are able to re-use the code.
Reduced the wait time for admin queue commands to complete, since we were
waiting a minimum of a millisecond, when in practice the admin queue
command is processed often much faster.  Cleaned up code (flag) we never
use.  Make the code to resetting all the VFs optimized for parallel
computing instead of the current way is a serialized fashion, to help
reduce the time it takes.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

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.
