mlx5-updates-2018-02-28-1 (IPSec-1) This series consists of some fixes and refactors for the mlx5 drivers, especially around the FPGA and flow steering. Most of them are trivial fixes and are the foundation of allowing IPSec acceleration from user-space. We use flow steering abstraction in order to accelerate IPSec packets. When a user creates a steering rule, [s]he states that we'll carry an encrypt/decrypt flow action (using a specific configuration) for every packet which conforms to a certain match. Since currently offloading these packets is done via FPGA, we'll add another set of flow steering ops. These ops will execute the required FPGA commands and then call the standard steering ops. In order to achieve this, we need that the commands will get all the required information. Therefore, we pass the fte object and embed the flow_action struct inside the fte. In addition, we add the shim layer that will later be used for alternating between the standard and the FPGA steering commands. Some fixes, like " net/mlx5e: Wait for FPGA command responses with a timeout" are very relevant for user-space applications, as these applications could be killed, but we still want to wait for the FPGA and update the kernel's database.

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.
