net: Unify user-visible "Qualcomm" nameVarious names for Qualcomm as a company are used in user-visible configoptions: QCOM, Qualcomm and Qualcomm Technologies. Switch to unified"Qualcomm" so it will be easier for users to identify the options whenfor example running menuconfig.Signed-off-by: Krzysztof Kozlowski Reviewed-by: Simon Horman Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260427070127.18471-2-krzysztof.kozlowski@oss.qualcomm.comSigned-off-by: Jakub Kicinski List of files: /linux/drivers/net/ethernet/qualcomm/Kconfig

net: ethernet: qualcomm: Add PPE driver for IPQ9574 SoCThe PPE (Packet Process Engine) hardware block is available on QualcommIPQ SoC that support PPE architecture, such as IPQ9574.The PPE in IPQ9574 includes six integrated Ethernet MAC for 6 PPE ports,buffer management, queue management and scheduler functions. The MACscan connect with the external PHY or switch devices using the UNIPHY PCSblock available in the SoC.The PPE also includes various packet processing offload capabilitiessuch as L3 routing and L2 bridging, VLAN and tunnel processing offload.It also includes Ethernet DMA function for transferring packets betweenARM cores and PPE Ethernet ports.This patch adds the base source files and Makefiles for the PPE driversuch as platform driver registration, clock initialization, and PPEreset routines.Signed-off-by: Luo Jie Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20250818-qcom_ipq_ppe-v8-3-1d4ff641fce9@quicinc.comSigned-off-by: Paolo Abeni List of files: /linux/drivers/net/ethernet/qualcomm/Kconfig

138b15ed877eff8149ae32c12fa1f4795c9cb4cf - drivers/net: remove all references to obsolete Ethernet-HOWTO

Sun, 21 Jun 2015 22:28:02 +0200

drivers/net: remove all references to obsolete Ethernet-HOWTOThis howto made sense in the 1990s when users had to manually configureISA cards with jumpers or vendor utilities, but with the implementationof PCI it became increasingly less and less relevant, to the point whereit has been well over a decade since I last updated it. And there isno value in anyone else taking over updating it either.However the references to it continue to spread as boiler plate textfrom one Kconfig file into the next. We are not doing end users anyfavours by pointing them at this old document, so lets kill it withfire, once and for all, to hopefully stop any further spread.No code is changed in this commit, just Kconfig help text.Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker Signed-off-by: David S.
