Jakub Kicinski says: ==================== devlink: expose instance locking and simplify port splitting This series puts the devlink ports fully under the devlink instance lock's protection. As discussed in the past it implements my preferred solution of exposing the instance lock to the drivers. This way drivers which want to support port splitting can lock the devlink instance themselves on the probe path, and we can take that lock in the core on the split/unsplit paths. nfp and mlxsw are converted, with slightly deeper changes done in nfp since I'm more familiar with that driver. Now that the devlink port is protected we can pass a pointer to the drivers, instead of passing a port index and forcing the drivers to do their own lookups. Both nfp and mlxsw can container_of() to their own structures. ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220315060009.1028519-1-kuba@kernel.org 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.
