The dump register function is being refactored. The third step in refactoring is to support tlv info in regs data for HNS3 PF driver. Currently, if we use "ethtool -d" to dump regs value, the output is as follows: offset1: 00 01 02 03 04 05 ... offset2：10 11 12 13 14 15 ... ...... We can't get the value of a register directly. This patch deletes the original separator information and add tag_len_value information in regs data. ethtool can parse register data in key-value format by -d command. a patch will be added to the ethtool to parse regs data in the following format: reg1 : value2 reg2 : value2 ......

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.
