Jason Gunthorpe 55c293c38e Merge branch 'devx-async' into k.o/for-next
Yishai Hadas says:

Enable DEVX asynchronous query commands

This series enables querying a DEVX object in an asynchronous mode.

The userspace application won't block when calling the firmware and it will be
able to get the response back once that it will be ready.

To enable the above functionality:

- DEVX asynchronous command completion FD object was introduced.
- The applicable file operations were implemented to enable using it by
  the user application.
- Query asynchronous method was added to the DEVX object, it will call the
  firmware asynchronously and manages the response on the given input FD.
- Hot unplug support was added for the FD to work properly upon
  unbind/disassociate.
- mlx5 core fence for asynchronous commands was implemented and used to
  prevent racing upon unbind/disassociate.

This branch is based on mlx5-next & v5.0-rc2 due to dependencies, from
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mellanox/linux

* branch 'devx-async':
  IB/mlx5: Implement DEVX hot unplug for async command FD
  IB/mlx5: Implement the file ops of DEVX async command FD
  IB/mlx5: Introduce async DEVX obj query API
  IB/mlx5: Introduce MLX5_IB_OBJECT_DEVX_ASYNC_CMD_FD

README

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.
