Add an interface for the rate limiting feature which allows to add,
remove and modify a QAT SLA (Service Level Agreement).
This adds a new sysfs attribute group, `qat_rl`, which can be accessed
from /sys/bus/pci/devices/<BUS:DEV:FUNCTION> with the following
hierarchy:
|-+ qat_rl
|---- id (RW) # SLA identifier
|---- cir (RW) # Committed Information Rate
|---- pir (RW) # Peak Information Rate
|---- srv (RW) # Service to be rate limited
|---- rp (RW) (HEX) # Ring pairs to be rate limited
|---- cap_rem (RW) # Remaining capability for a service
|---- sla_op (WO) # Allows to perform an operation on an SLA
The API works by setting the appropriate RW attributes and then
issuing a command through the `sla_op`. For example, to create an SLA, a
user needs to input the necessary data into the attributes cir, pir, srv
and rp and then write into `sla_op` the command `add` to execute the
operation.
The API also provides `cap_rem` attribute to get information about
the remaining device capability within a certain service which is
required when setting an SLA.

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.
