Hence, this patch fixes a number of missing docs, Fixes: e81a315e5dc5 ("ixgbe: add MAC short packet discard count to Rx errors") Fixes: 48dd1a82a615 ("ixgbe: remove mac fault counts from Rx errors") Fixes: 256ff05a9cae ("ixgbe: fix Rx errors statistics for UDP checksum") Also, the CRC byte removal was not added to release notes, so Fixes: 156c5a8cf913 ("e1000: remove CRC size from byte counters") Fixes: c03fcee9abbd ("ixgbe: remove CRC size from byte counters") Fixes: 0834d1524dee ("i40e: remove CRC size from byte counters") Signed-off-by: Harry van Haaren Acked-by: John McNamara --- diff --git a/doc/guides/rel_notes/release_2_2.rst b/doc/guides/rel_notes/release_2_2.rst index 1ad589110b..bb7d15a645 100644 --- a/doc/guides/rel_notes/release_2_2.rst +++ b/doc/guides/rel_notes/release_2_2.rst @@ -341,6 +341,8 @@ Drivers Assign a random MAC address in VF when not assigned by PF. +* **igb: Removed CRC bytes from byte counter statistics.** + * **ixgbe: Fixed issue with X550 DCB.** Fixed a DCB issue with x550 where for 8 TCs (Traffic Classes), if a packet @@ -361,6 +363,17 @@ Drivers packets have to be sent.
