	- Enabling Flow Control on external ports.
	- Forcing link up, full-duplex, 1000Mbps speed and flow control for ports connected to a GMAC unit.
	- Improved Switch state and statistics printout.
   + Ethtools:
   	- The interval for ethtool timeout autoneg (MV_ETH_TOOL_AN_TIMEOUT) 
	  was changed to 5000 (5 seconds) instead of 2000 (2 seconds) due to a timeout
	- When restaring autonegotioation with mvEthPhyRestarrAN().
	- AutoNegotation restart was added to ethtools restore setting method and also
	  in one case in set_pauseparam() (for "ethtool -K autoneg on tx on rx on").

 o Fixed issue with Gateway driver not receiving broadcast packets 
   (packets with MAC broadcast destination address).
 o Performing SMI accesses using GbE#1 registers.
 o Fixed minor issue - previously tried to access Switch PHY on port 4 
   even if port 4 is not connected.

   + Support init-time configuration of working with the Switch in Gateway mode / External Switch mode (non-Gateway): 
     - Separate Switch driver (QD HAL) load from Switch init function
     - Select Gateway mode / External Switch mode according to the mvNetConfig
       parameter in U-Boot. (See LSP Readme for further details).

   UART to work a little slower for applications with large amount of
   printouts.

   mvBoardTdmDevicesCountGet().

   - MAC port 1 is connected to switch port 5.
   - Internal PHY is connected to switch port 4.
 o Add support for RD-88F6536-MDU board.
 o Updated Ethernet Complex initialization code to support SGMII,
   QSGMII, Internal PHYs and switch.
 o Cesa HAL code cleanup.
 o TDM:
   - Added support for CommUnit (Up to 4 channels are currently
     supported).
   - Only Zarlink-VE880 SLICs are currently supported.
   - Added an option to compile the mv_phone.ko driver using a pre-built
     SLIC drivers library (This is the default kernel setting).
   - Updated SLIC electrical initialization parameters table (For
     Zarlink-VE880).
   - Fix SLIC initialization process.
   - Enhanced phone_test utilitiy with capability to read SLIC
     registers.


- Changes from version 0.1.0-NQ
-------------------------------
 o Initial support for TDM-32 Channels unit.

4. Known Issues
===============
Networking:
- For getting GRO offload paramaters , you must have version
  ethtool-2.6.33-pre1 or higher.
- MTU change is not supported.
- When working with QSGMII module connected to the Switch, flow control is not enabled on the Switch external ports.
- Connecting Switch port 5 to RGMII or internal PHY is currently not supported.
- Allmulticast mode is not supported for Gateway interfaces.
- Cannot use Gateway mode for RD-SFU board, must select External Switch mode.

Telephony/CommUnit:
- No support for Linear mode(A-law/U-law only).
- False MCSC/MCDMA parity error generation.
- Zarlink SLIC/s initialization process may end up with false off-hook detection for part/all lines.
- FSync signal is tied to the TDM enable - therefore all CommUnit blocks are functional prior to SLIC/s
  initialization process.
- Periodic interrupt counter drifts by one frame(125usec).
- Re-enabling the CommUnit may end up with small sampling offset(1 or 2 samples) between voice channels.

USB:
- Linux doesn't handle well a case of 2 ISO devices(full speed) working
  simultaneously through the high speed hub.

NAND:
- When working with 4bit ECC configuration, it is not recommended to perform
  read from an erased page, since no ECC was calculated for this page.
  In this case we compared the page data against 512 bytes of 0xFF and if we
  get a match, then return gracefully, otherwise, there is an uncorrectable
  error.

CESA:
- OpenSSL speed test multiple sessions cause to board terminal ,telnet and ssh
  sessions to stop working.

5. Notes
========

- This release support up to 512MB of DRAM with current memory layout definition.
