2015-12-01i40e/i40evf: Fix RS bit update in Tx path and disable force WB workaroundAnjali Singhai Jain
This patch fixes the issue of forcing WB too often causing us to not benefit from NAPI. Without this patch we were forcing WB/arming interrupt too often taking away the benefits of NAPI and causing a performance impact. With this patch we disable force WB in the clean routine for X710 and XL710 adapters. X722 adapters do not enable interrupt to force a WB and benefit from WB_ON_ITR and hence force WB is left enabled for those adapters. For XL710 and X710 adapters if we have less than 4 packets pending a software Interrupt triggered from service task will force a WB. This patch also changes the conditions for setting RS bit as described in code comments. This optimizes when the HW does a tail bump amd when it does a WB. It also optimizes when we do a wmb.

2015-12-01hv_netvsc: rework link status change handlingVitaly Kuznetsov
There are several issues in hv_netvsc driver with regards to link status change handling: - RNDIS_STATUS_NETWORK_CHANGE results in calling userspace helper doing '/etc/init.d/network restart' and this is inappropriate and broken for many reasons. - link_watch infrastructure only sends one notification per second and in case of e.g. paired disconnect/connect events we get only one notification with last status. This makes it impossible to handle such situations in userspace. Redo link status changes handling in the following way: - Create a list of reconfig events in network device context. - On a reconfig event add it to the list of events and schedule netvsc_link_change(). - In netvsc_link_change() ensure 2-second delay between link status changes. - Handle RNDIS_STATUS_NETWORK_CHANGE as a paired disconnect/connect event.

2015-11-25i40evf: handle many MAC filters correctlyMitch Williams
When a lot (many hundreds) of MAC or VLAN filters are added at one time, we can overflow the Admin Queue buffer size with all the requests. Unfortunately, the driver would then calculate the message size incorrectly, causing it to be rejected by the PF. Furthermore, there was no mechanism to trigger another request to allow for configuring the rest of the filters that didn't fit into the first request. To fix this, recalculate the correct buffer size when we detect the overflow condition instead of just assuming the max buffer size. Also, don't clear the request bit in adapter->aq_required when we have an overflow, so that the rest of the filters can be processed later.
