This series contains updates to ixgbe and ixgbevf. Emil updates ixgbevf to match ixgbe functionality, starting with the consolidating of functions that represent logical steps in the receive process so we can later update them more easily. Updated ixgbevf to only synchronize the length of the frame, which will typically be the MTU or smaller. Updated the VF driver to use the length of the packet instead of the DD status bit to determine if a new descriptor is ready to be processed, which saves on reads and we can save time on initialization. Added support for DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC/WEAK_ORDERING to help improve performance on some platforms. Updated the VF driver to do bulk updates of the page reference count instead of just incrementing it by one reference at a time. Updated the VF driver to only go through the region of the receive ring that was designated to be cleaned up, rather than process the entire ring.
Colin Ian King adds the use of ARRAY_SIZE() on various arrays. Miroslav Lichvar fixes an issue where ethtool was reporting timestamping filters unsupported for X550, which is incorrect. Paul adds support for reporting 5G link speed for some devices. Dan Carpenter fixes a typo where && was used when it should have been ||. The following are changes since commit 9515a2e082f91457db0ecff4b65371d0fb5d9aad: net/ipv4: Allow send to local broadcast from a socket bound to a VRF and are available in the git repository at: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jkirsher/next-queue 10GbE Colin Ian King (2): ixgbevf: use ARRAY_SIZE for various array sizing calculations ixgbe: use ARRAY_SIZE for array sizing calculation on array buf Dan Carpenter (1): ixgbe: Fix && vs || typo Emil Tantilov (10): ixgbevf: add function for checking if we can reuse page ixgbevf: only DMA sync frame length ixgbevf: use length to determine if descriptor is done ixgbevf: add support for DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC/WEAK_ORDERING ixgbevf: update code to better handle incrementing page count ixgbevf: add counters for Rx page allocations ixgbevf: clear rx_buffer_info in configure instead of clean ixgbevf: improve performance and reduce size of ixgbevf_tx_map() ixgbevf: don't bother clearing tx_buffer_info in ixgbevf_clean_tx_ring() ixgbe: don't set RXDCTL.RLPML for 82599 Miroslav Lichvar (1): ixgbe: Don't report unsupported timestamping filters for X550 Paul Greenwalt (1): ixgbe: add support for reporting 5G link speed drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ixgbe/ixgbe_common.c | 2 +- drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ixgbe/ixgbe_ethtool.c | 37 +-- drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ixgbe/ixgbe_main.c | 11 +- drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ixgbe/ixgbe_x550.c | 2 +- drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ixgbevf/ethtool.c | 3 + drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ixgbevf/ixgbevf.h | 16 +- drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ixgbevf/ixgbevf_main.c | 362 +++++++++++++--------- drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ixgbevf/vf.c | 17 +- 8 files changed, 271 insertions(+), 179 deletions(-) -- 2.14.3
