Each Octeon output ring can DMA packets to host memory in two modes: info- pointer mode and buffer-pointer-only mode. In info-pointer mode, Octeon takes two buffer pointers for each packet and places the length of the packet along with specified number of bytes from the beginning of the packet into one buffer and the rest of the packet in a separate buffer. In buffer-pointer-only mode, Octeon takes single buffer pointer and places the length of the packet at the beginning of the buffer followed by the packet data. This patch switches all Octeon output rings from info-pointer mode to buffer-pointer-only mode. This results in fewer DMA setups and cache line snoops.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
