Running Solarflare PMD over PCI virtual functions requires few fixes: - periodic MAC stats DMA is not supported for VFs - promiscious and all-multicast modes may be denied by FW/PF - MCDI proxy authorization made by FW should be properly handled by the VF driver
v1 -> v2 * rephrase git logs * add release notes * add SR-IOV feature to the driver list * reorder patches to advertise VF support when it works Andrew Rybchenko (1): net/sfc/base: don't ignore requested MAC stats update period Ivan Malov (5): net/sfc: add kvarg control for MAC statistics update period net/sfc: poll MAC stats if periodic DMA is not supported net/sfc: avoid failure on port start if Rx mode is rejected net/sfc: add support for MCDI proxy net/sfc: add VFs to the table of PCI IDs for supported NICs doc/guides/nics/features/sfc_efx.ini | 1 + doc/guides/nics/sfc_efx.rst | 9 +++ doc/guides/rel_notes/release_17_05.rst | 4 ++ drivers/net/sfc/base/efx_mcdi.c | 24 +++++--- drivers/net/sfc/base/efx_mcdi.h | 2 +- drivers/net/sfc/efsys.h | 2 +- drivers/net/sfc/sfc.h | 13 ++++ drivers/net/sfc/sfc_ethdev.c | 4 ++ drivers/net/sfc/sfc_kvargs.c | 20 ++++++ drivers/net/sfc/sfc_kvargs.h | 5 ++ drivers/net/sfc/sfc_mcdi.c | 74 +++++++++++++++++++++-- drivers/net/sfc/sfc_port.c | 107 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++---- drivers/net/sfc/sfc_rx.c | 54 ++++++++++++++++- 13 files changed, 285 insertions(+), 34 deletions(-) -- 2.9.3
