[PATCH net-next v9 0/4] Prerequisites for Cavium OCTEON-III network driver.

2018-04-26 Thread Steven J. Hill
We want to add the Cavium OCTEON-III network driver. But since interacting with the input and output queues is done via special CPU local memory, we also need to add support to the MIPS/Octeon architecture code. Aren't SoCs nice in this way? These are the prerequisite patches that are needed
