Tony Nguyen says: ==================== net: implement devlink reload in ice Michal Swiatkowski says: This is a part of changes done in patchset [0]. Resource management is kind of controversial part, so I split it into two patchsets. It is the first one, covering refactor and implement reload API call. The refactor will unblock some of the patches needed by SIOV or subfunction. Most of this patchset is about implementing driver reload mechanism. Part of code from probe and rebuild is used to not duplicate code. To allow this reuse probe and rebuild path are split into smaller functions. Patch "ice: split ice_vsi_setup into smaller functions" changes boolean variable in function call to integer and adds define for it. Instead of having the function called with true/false now it can be called with readable defines ICE_VSI_FLAG_INIT or ICE_VSI_FLAG_NO_INIT. It was suggested by Jacob Keller and probably this mechanism will be implemented across ice driver in follow up patchset. Previously the code was reviewed here [0].

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.
