Amritha Nambiar 2027d4deac i40e: Add support setting TC max bandwidth rates
This patch enables setting up maximum Tx rates for the traffic
classes in i40e. The maximum rate is offloaded to the hardware through
the mqprio framework by specifying the mode option as 'channel' and
shaper option as 'bw_rlimit' and is configured for the VSI. Configuring
minimum Tx rate limit is not supported in the device. The minimum
usable value for Tx rate is 50Mbps.

Example:
# tc qdisc add dev eth0 root mqprio num_tc 2  map 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1\
  queues 4@0 4@4 hw 1 mode channel shaper bw_rlimit\
  max_rate 4Gbit 5Gbit

To dump the bandwidth rates:
# tc qdisc show dev eth0

qdisc mqprio 804a: root  tc 2 map 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
             queues:(0:3) (4:7)
             mode:channel
             shaper:bw_rlimit   max_rate:4Gbit 5Gbit

README

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.
