10GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2015-12-29
This series contains updates to ixgbe and ixgbevf.
William Dauchy provides a fix for ixgbevf that was implemented for ixgbe,
commit
5d6002b7b822c7 ("ixgbe: Fix handling of NAPI budget when multiple
queues are enabled per vector"). The issue was that the polling routine
would increase the budget for receive to at least 1 per queue if multiple
queues were present, which resulted in receive packets being processed
when the budget was 0.
Emil provides minor cleanups for ixgbevf, one being that we need to
check rx_itr_setting with == and not &, since it is not a mask. Added
QSFP PHY support in ixgbe to allow for more accurate reporting of port
settings. Fixed the max RSS limit for X550 which is 63, not 64.
Veola fixes ixgbe ethtool reporting of backplane type interfaces as
1000/10000baseT link modes, instead, report the media as KR, KX or KX4
based on the backplane interface present.
Mark cleans up redundancy in the setting of hw_enc_features that makes
it appear that X550 has more encapsulation features than other devices.
Also do not set NETIF_F_SG any longer since that is set by the
register_netdev() call. Also fixed the X550EM_x revision check, which
needs to check a value, not just a bit.
Alex Duyck fixes additional bugs in ixgbe_clear_vf_vlans(), one being
that the mask was using a divide instead of a modulus, which resulted
in the mask bit being incorrectly set to 0 or 1 based on the value of
the VF being tested. Alex also found that he was not consistent in
using the "word" argument as an offset or as a register offset, so
made the code consistently use word as the offset in the array.
v2: dropped patch 8 of the original series, as it was undoing a part of
the fix Alex Duyck was doing in patch 9 of the original series.
Dropped based on feedback from Emil (the author).
