net: ena: Update LLQ header length in ena documentation

2022-01-08T03:25:50+00:00

LLQ entry length is 128 bytes. Therefore the maximum header in
the entry is calculated by:
tx_max_header_size =
LLQ_ENTRY_SIZE - DESCRIPTORS_NUM_BEFORE_HEADER * 16 =
128 - 2 * 16 = 96

This patch updates the documentation so that it states the correct
max header length.

ixgbe: Document how to enable NBASE-T support

2021-12-15T19:09:29+00:00

Commit a296d665eae1 ("ixgbe: Add ethtool support to enable 2.5 and 5.0
Gbps support") introduced suppression of the advertisement of NBASE-T
speeds by default, according to Todd Fujinaka to accommodate customers
with network switches which could not cope with advertised NBASE-T
speeds, as posted in the E1000-devel mailing list:

https://sourceforge.net/p/e1000/mailman/message/37106269/

However, the suppression was not documented at all, nor was how to
enable NBASE-T support.

Properly document the NBASE-T suppression and how to enable NBASE-T
support.

net/mlx5: Print health buffer by log level

2021-10-25T20:51:19+00:00

Add log macro which gets log level as a parameter. Use the severity
read from the health buffer and the new log macro to log the health buffer
with severity as log level.  Prior to this patch, health buffer was
printed in error log level regardless of its severity. Now the user may
filter dmesg (--level) or change kernel log level to focus on different
severity levels of firmware errors.
