The existing method of reserving unicast filter count leads to wasted MCAM entries if the functionality is not used or fewer entries are used. Furthermore, the amount of MCAM entries differs amongst Octeon SoCs. We implemented a means to adjust the UC filter count via devlink, allowing for better use of MCAM entries across Netdev apps. commands: To get the current unicast filter count # devlink dev param show pci/0002:02:00.0 name unicast_filter_count To change/set the unicast filter count # devlink dev param set pci/0002:02:00.0 name unicast_filter_count value 5 cmode runtime Signed-off-by: Sai Krishna <saikrishnag@marvell.com> Reviewed-by: Simon Horman <horms@kernel.org> 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 reStructuredText 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.
