Simon Horman says: ==================== nfp: implement firmware loading policy Dirk says: This series adds configuration capabilities to the firmware loading policy of the NFP driver. NFP firmware loading is controlled via three HWinfo keys which can be set per device: 'abi_drv_reset', 'abi_drv_load_ifc' and 'app_fw_from_flash'. Refer to patch #11 for more detail on how these control the firmware loading. In order to configure the full extend of FW loading policy, a new devlink parameter has been introduced, 'reset_dev_on_drv_probe', which controls if the driver should reset the device when it's probed. This, in conjunction with the existing 'fw_load_policy' (extended to include a 'disk' option) provides the means to tweak the NFP HWinfo keys as required by users. Patches 1 and 2 adds the devlink modifications and patches 3 through 9 adds the support into the NFP driver. Furthermore, the last 2 patches are documentation only. v2: Renamed all 'reset_dev_on_drv_probe' defines the same as the devlink parameter name (Jiri) ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

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.
