b53cd86965 net/mlx5: adjust inline setting for large Tx queue sizes
The hardware may have limitations on maximal amount of
supported Tx descriptors building blocks (WQEBB). Application
requires the Tx queue must accept the specified amount of packets.
If inline data feature is engaged the packet may require more WQEBBs
and overall amount of blocks may exceed the hardware capabilities.
Application has to make a trade-off between Tx queue size and maximal
data inline size.

In case if the inline settings are not requested explicitly with
devarg keys the default values are used. This patch adjusts the
applied default values if large Tx queue size is requested and
default inline settings can not be satisfied due to hardware
limitations.

The explicitly requested inline setting may be aligned (enlarging
only) by configurations routines to provide better WQEBB filling,
this implicit alignment is the subject for adjustment either.

The warning message is emitted to the log if adjustment happens.

0cb4150f82 net/bnx2x: update to latest FW 7.13.11
Use latest firmware 7.13.11.

7.13.11 FW changelog:
    - Packets from a VF with pvid configured which were sent with a
      different vlan were transmitted instead of being discarded.
    - In some multi-function configurations, inter-PF and inter-VF
      Tx switching is incorrectly enabled.
    - Wrong assert code in FLR final cleanup in case it is sent not
      after FLR.
    - Chip may stall in very rare cases under heavy traffic with FW GRO
      enabled.
    - VF malicious notification error fixes.
    - Default gre tunnel to IPGRE which allows proper RSS for IPGRE
      packets, L2GRE traffic will reach single queue.
    - Removes unnecessary internal mem config, latest FW performs this
      autonomously.

Update the PMD version to 1.1.0.1.

DCB features:
Up can be mapped to other tc driver permits according to business
requirement. We can config DCB information and enable PFC by
rte_eth_dev_configure interface. Besides, enabling flow control of a
priority is supported by rte_eth_dev_priority_flow_ctrl_set interface.
we can also set flow mode and pause time by
rte_eth_dev_priority_flow_ctrl_set. we do not support manual setting of
ETS, but driver equally distributes bandwidth for each tc according to
number of used tc.

In addition, flow control function by default is turned off to ensure
that app startup state is the same each time.

during initialization. Users can use "lspci -vs" to get the device
serial number.
The pkg search path are /lib/firmware/updates/intel/ice/ddp/
and /lib/firmware/intel/ice/ddp/. If the package exists,
the driver will download it to the device instead of the default
one. The loaded package type (OS default and COMMS) will be

030febb664 doc: remove deprecated ethdev features
As legacy filter API "filter_ctrl" is superseded since 2017
by the rte_flow API, and got the deprecated attribute in DPDK 19.05,
it is time to remove the associated features from the matrix.
Not documenting deprecated features as supported will avoid confusion.

499b461f90 doc: remove useless console syntax in mlx guides
It is not needed to use "console" syntax highlighting
for literal blocks.
The file is easier to read by removing the code-block lines
and simply having double colons in previous line.

ae28c04547 doc: improve firmware configuration in mlx5 guide
The command mlxconfig was not enough explained and too much verbose
at the same time.
The syntax is now explained in introduction before listing the options,
without repeating the commands.
Some options, which are explained elsewhere in the doc,
are added to this list.
