Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2015-02-24
This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf only, which bumps their
versions to i40e 1.2.9 and i40evf 1.2.3.
Paul fixes i40e_debug_aq() for big endian machines by adding the
appropriate LExx_TO_CPU wrappers.
Catherine adds a requested speed variable to the link_status to store the
last speeds we requested from the firmware and use the advertised speed
settings in get_settings in ethtool now that we have it. Due to the
new code addition, she also refactors get_settings to improve readability
and to accommodate some of the longer lines of code by adding two
functions i40e_get_settings_link_up() and i40e_get_settings_link_down().
Carolyn adds a struct to the VSI struct to keep track of RXNFC settings
done via ethtool. Adds more information to the interrupt vector
names, specifically to the VF misc vector name so that we can distinguish
between all the interrupts.
Ashish enables the i40evf driver to enable debug prints via ethtool.
Mitch updates i40e to enable packet split only when IOMMU is in use,
since it shows a distinct advantage over the single-buffer path
because it minimizes DMA mapping and unmapping. Also adds the receive
routine in use to the features log message to be able to print the
receive packet split status.
Greg adds the ability to get, set and commit permanently the NPAR
partition BW configuration through configfs. Enables an application
to query the i40e driver's private flags to get the status of NPAR
enablement via ethtool.
Neerav adds support for bridge offload ndo_ops getlink and setlink
to enable bridge hardware mode as per the mode set via IFLA_BRIDGE_MODE.
The support is only enabled in the case of a PF VSI and not available for
any other VSI type.
Kevin fixes i40e by ensuring the BUF and FLAG_RD flags are set for
indirect admin queue command.
Vasu updates the driver to setup FCoE netdev device type as "fcoe", so that
it shows up in sysfs as FCoE device.
