Linux kernel source tree

Currently, there are two major issues with stmmac driver statistics First of all, statistics in stmmac_extra_stats, stmmac_rxq_stats and stmmac_txq_stats are 32 bit variables on 32 bit platforms. This can cause some stats to overflow after several minutes of high traffic, for example rx_pkt_n, tx_pkt_n and so on. Secondly, if HW supports multiqueues, there are frequent cacheline ping pongs on some driver statistic vars, for example, normal_irq_n, tx_pkt_n and so on. What's more, frequent cacheline ping pongs on normal_irq_n happens in ISR, this makes the situation worse. To improve the driver, we convert those statistics to 64 bit, implement ndo_get_stats64 and update .get_ethtool_stats implementation accordingly. We also use per-queue statistics where necessary to remove the cacheline ping pongs as much as possible to make multiqueue operations faster. Those statistics which are not possible to overflow and not frequently updated are kept as is.

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.
