Subject: [PATCH v2] doc/dlb2: update dlb2 documentation
Date: Tue, 7 Dec 2021 17:01:51 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211207230151.2332031-1-rashmi.shetty@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20211206163639.2220123-1-rashmi.shetty@intel.com>
Number of direct credits, atomic inflight and history list are
updated to DLB2.0 supported sizes. As DLB2.0 does not provide
dev arg to override the default per-queue atomic inflight
allocation, it is removed from the documentation.
