Linux kernel source tree
7237f5b0db
Add an ethtool "legacy-rx" priv flag for toggling the Rx path. This control knob will be mainly used for build_skb usage as well as buffer size/MTU manipulation. In preparation for adding build_skb support in a way that it takes care of how we set the values of max_frame and rx_buf_len fields of struct ice_vsi. Specifically, in this patch mentioned fields are set to values that will allow us to provide headroom and tailroom in-place. This can be mostly broken down onto following: - for legacy-rx "on" ethtool control knob, old behaviour is kept; - for standard 1500 MTU size configure the buffer of size 1536, as network stack is expecting the NET_SKB_PAD to be provided and NET_IP_ALIGN can have a non-zero value (these can be typically equal to 32 and 2, respectively); - for larger MTUs go with max_frame set to 9k and configure the 3k buffer in case when PAGE_SIZE of underlying arch is less than 8k; 3k buffer is implying the need for order 1 page, so that our page recycling scheme can still be applied; With that said, substitute the hardcoded ICE_RXBUF_2048 and PAGE_SIZE values in DMA API that we're making use of with rx_ring->rx_buf_len and ice_rx_pg_size(rx_ring). The latter is an introduced helper for determining the page size based on its order (which was figured out via ice_rx_pg_order). Last but not least, take care of truesize calculation. In the followup patch the headroom/tailroom computation logic will be introduced. This change aligns the buffer and frame configuration with other Intel drivers, most importantly with iavf.

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.
