Linux kernel source tree
ce74496a15
The patch changes the maximum number of RX/TX queues it advertises to the kernel (via alloc_etherdev_mq()) from a value received from the device to a constant value which is the minimum between 128 and the number of CPUs in the system. By allocating the net_device struct with a constant number of queues, the driver is able to allocate it at a much earlier stage, before calling any ena_com functions. This would allow to make all log prints in ena_com to use netdev_* log functions instead or current pr_* ones. Note: netdev_* prints in ena_com functions that are called before net_device registration in ena_probe() might print messages that are a bit ugly (with strings like "(unnamed net_device) (uninitialized)"). However we decided to use netdev_* prints in these functions anyway, for the sake of getting better messages later, when ena_com functions are called after ena_probe() form other parts of the driver. See discussion about this decision in [1].

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.
