Clément Léger 753a026cfe net: ocelot: add FDMA support
Ethernet frames can be extracted or injected autonomously to or from
the device’s DDR3/DDR3L memory and/or PCIe memory space. Linked list
data structures in memory are used for injecting or extracting Ethernet
frames. The FDMA generates interrupts when frame extraction or
injection is done and when the linked lists need updating.

The FDMA is shared between all the ethernet ports of the switch and
uses a linked list of descriptors (DCB) to inject and extract packets.
Before adding descriptors, the FDMA channels must be stopped. It would
be inefficient to do that each time a descriptor would be added so the
channels are restarted only once they stopped.

Both channels uses ring-like structure to feed the DCBs to the FDMA.
head and tail are never touched by hardware and are completely handled
by the driver. On top of that, page recycling has been added and is
mostly taken from gianfar driver.

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.
