In DCB Willing Mode (FW managed LLDP), when the link partner changes configuration which requires fewer TCs, the TCs that are no longer needed are suspended by EMP FW, removed, and never resumed. This occurs before a MIB change event is indicated to SW. The permanent suspension and removal of these TC nodes in the scheduler prevents RDMA from being able to destroy QPs associated with this TC, requiring a CORE reset to recover. A new DCBX configuration change flow is defined to allow SW driver and other SW components (RDMA) to properly adjust to the configuration changes before they are taking effect in HW. This flow includes a two-way handshake between EMP FW<->LAN SW<->RDMA SW. List of changes: - Add 'Execute Pending LLDP MIB' AQC. - Add 'Pending Event Enable' bit. - Add additional logic to ignore Pending Event Enable' request while 'LLDP MIB Chnage' event is disabled. - Add 'Execute Pending LLDP MIB' AQC sending function to FW, which is needed to take place MIB Event change.

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.
