Pls consider applying to the net-next tree. Thanks. v2 changes: a) dropped the "don't enable pause by default" patch b) described how the "spoof check" works in patch 1's commit log c) I had to update our email addresses from "@emulex" to "@avagotech". I'll send a separate patch updating the maintainers Patch 1 adds support for the "spoofchk" knob for VFs. When it is enabled, "spoof checking" is done for both MAC-address and VLAN. For each VF, the HW ensures that the source MAC address (or vlan) of every outgoing packet of the VF exists in the MAC-list (or vlan-list) configured for RX filtering for that VF. If not, the packet is dropped and an error is reported to the driver in the TX completion. Patch 2 improves interrupt moderation on Skyhawk-R chip by using the EQ-DB mechanism to set a "re-arm to interrupt" delay. Currently interrupt moderation is adjusted by calculating and configuring an EQ-delay every second. This is done via a FW-cmd. This patch uses the EQ_DB facility to calculate and set the interrupt delay every 1ms. This helps moderating interrupts better when the traffic is bursty. Patch 3 adds L3/L4 error accounting to BE3 VFs, by passing L3/4 error packets to the network stack. Patch 4 adds an extra FW-cmd error value check in the driver to identify an "out of vlan filters" scenario. Patch 5 stops enabling pause by default as this setting fails in some HW-configs where priority pause is enabled in FW. If the user tries to do the same, an appropriate error is returned via ethtool. Patch 5 posts the full RXQ in be_open() to prevent packet drops due to bursty traffic when the interface is enabled. Patch 6 refactors the be_check_ufi_compatibility() routine, that checks to see if a UFI file meant for a lower rev of a chip is being flashed on a higher rev, to make it simpler. Patch 7 replaces the usage of !be_physfn() macro with be_virtfn() that is already avialble in the driver. Patch 8 updates the year in the copyright text to 2015. Path 9 bumps up the driver version to 10.6.02. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller --- b2a6c326b252fe86482ae2f256409ba96bafc7b5
