This series contains updates to i40e, i40evf and the "new" AVF virtchnl.
This is the introduction of the Intel(R) Ethernet Adaptive Virtual Function driver code and device ID, as presented at the NetDEV 1.2 conference in 2016. http://netdevconf.org/1.2/session.html?anjali-singhai The idea is to convert the interface between the i40evf driver and the parent i40e PF driver to be generic, as the i40evf driver should in the future be able to run on top of other Intel PF drivers, and negotiate any features beyond a "base expected" set. The following are changes since commit 0266f79778de0afadd070941aae493c28529d974: mlxsw: spectrum: Add bridge dependency for spectrum and are available in the git repository at: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jkirsher/next-queue 40GbE Jesse Brandeburg (11): i40evf: drop i40e_type.h include i40e/i40evf: create and use new unified header file i40e: use new unified virtchnl header file virtchnl: rename i40e to generic virtchnl virtchnl: move some code to core driver virtchnl: convert to new macros i40e/virtchnl: refactor code for validate checks i40evf/virtchnl: whitespace cleanups virtchnl: finish conversion to virtchnl interface i40e/virtchnl: move function to virtchnl i40evf: update i40evf.txt with new content Preethi Banala (1): i40evf: Add support for Adaptive Virtual Function Sridhar Samudrala (2): virtchnl: Add pad fields to a couple of structures virtchnl: Add compile time static asserts to validate structure sizes Documentation/networking/i40evf.txt | 23 +- MAINTAINERS | 1 + drivers/net/ethernet/intel/Kconfig | 10 +- drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e/i40e.h | 2 +- drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e/i40e_client.c | 2 +- drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e/i40e_common.c | 2 +- drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e/i40e_prototype.h | 6 +- drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e/i40e_virtchnl.h | 449 ------------- drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e/i40e_virtchnl_pf.c | 474 +++++--------- drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e/i40e_virtchnl_pf.h | 9 +- drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40evf/i40e_common.c | 15 +- drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40evf/i40e_devids.h | 1 + drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40evf/i40e_prototype.h | 6 +- drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40evf/i40e_virtchnl.h | 448 ------------- drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40evf/i40evf.h | 26 +- drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40evf/i40evf_client.c | 18 +- drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40evf/i40evf_main.c | 66 +- .../net/ethernet/intel/i40evf/i40evf_virtchnl.c | 285 +++++---- include/linux/avf/virtchnl.h | 701 +++++++++++++++++++++ 19 files changed, 1109 insertions(+), 1435 deletions(-) delete mode 100644 drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e/i40e_virtchnl.h delete mode 100644 drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40evf/i40e_virtchnl.h create mode 100644 include/linux/avf/virtchnl.h -- 2.12.2
