Srujana Challa says: ==================== Add Support for Marvell OcteonTX2 Cryptographic This patchset adds support for CPT in OcteonTX2 admin function(AF). CPT is a cryptographic accelerator unit and it includes microcoded Giga Cipher engines. OcteonTX2 SOC's resource virtualization unit (RVU) supports multiple physical and virtual functions. Each of the PF/VF's functionality is determined by what kind of resources are attached to it. When the CPT block is attached to a VF, it can function as a security device. The following document provides an overview of the hardware and different drivers for the OcteonTX2 SOC: https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/networking/device_drivers/marvell/octeontx2.rst This patch series includes: - Patch to update existing Marvell sources to support CPT. - Patch that adds mailbox messages to the admin function (AF) driver, to configure CPT HW registers. - Patch to provide debug information about CPT. ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20201118114416.28307-1-schalla@marvell.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
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.
