Ilan Tayari bebb23e6cb net/mlx5: Accel, Add IPSec acceleration interface
Add routines for manipulating the hardware IPSec SA database (SADB).

In Innova IPSec, a Security Association (SA) is added or deleted
via a command message over the SBU connection.
The HW then sends a response message over the same connection.

Add implementation for Innova IPSec (FPGA-based) hardware.

These routines will be used by the IPSec offload support in a later patch
However they may also be used by others such as RDMA and RoCE IPSec.

mlx5/accel is a middle acceleration layer to allow mlx5e and other ULPs
to work directly with mlx5_core rather than Innova FPGA or other mlx5
acceleration providers.

In this patchset we add Innova IPSec support and mlx5/accel delegates
IPSec offloads to Innova routines.

In the future, when IPSec/TLS or any other acceleration gets integrated
into ConnectX chip, mlx5/accel layer will provide the integrated
acceleration, rather than the Innova one.

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.
