2018-02-23Documentation/ABI: update infiniband sysfs interfacesAishwarya Pant
Add documentation for core and hardware specific infiniband interfaces. The descriptions have been collected from git commit logs, reading through code and data sheets. Some drivers have incomplete doc and are annotated with the comment '[to be documented]'.

2016-05-26IB/core: Make device counter infrastructure dynamicChristoph Lameter
In practice, each RDMA device has a unique set of counters that the hardware implements. Having a central set of counters that they must all adhere to is limiting and causes many useful counters to not be available. Therefore we create a dynamic counter registration infrastructure. The driver must implement a stats structure allocation routine, in which the driver must place the directory name it wants, a list of names for all of the counters, an array of u64 counters themselves, plus a few generic configuration options. We then implement a core routine to create a sysfs file for each of the named stats elements, and a core routine to retrieve the stats when any of the sysfs attribute files are read. To avoid excessive beating on the stats generation routine in the drivers, the core code also caches the stats for a short period of time so that someone attempting to read all of the stats in a given device's directory will not result in a stats generation call per file read. Future work will attempt to standardize just the shared stats elements, and possibly add a method to get the stats via netlink in addition to sysfs.

2016-03-10staging/rdma/hfi1: Method to toggle "fast ECN" detectionVennila Megavannan
Add a per port sysfs paramter to toggle cc_prescan/Fast ECN Detection and remove the Kconfig option which was previously used to control this. While am updating the sysfs documentation, fix the name of CCMgtA.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
