Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2019-06-28
This series contains a smorgasbord of updates to many of the Intel
drivers.
Gustavo A. R. Silva updates the ice and iavf drivers to use the
strcut_size() helper where possible.
Miguel increases the pause and refresh time for flow control in the
e1000e driver during reset for certain devices.
Dann Frazier fixes a potential NULL pointer dereference in ixgbe driver
when using non-IPSec enabled devices.
Colin Ian King fixes a potential overflow during a shift in the ixgbe
driver. Also fixes a potential NULL pointer dereference in the iavf
driver by adding a check.
Venkatesh Srinivas converts the e1000 driver to use dma_wmb() instead of
wmb() for doorbell writes to avoid SFENCEs in the transmit and receive
paths.
Arjan updates the e1000e driver to improve boot time by over 100 msec by
reducing the usleep ranges suring system startup.
Artem updates the igb driver register dump in ethtool, first prepares
the register dump for future additions of registers in the dump, then
secondly, adds the RR2DCDELAY register to the dump. When dealing with
time-sensitive networks, this register is helpful in determining your
latency from the device to the ring.
Alex fixes the ixgbevf driver to use the current cached link state,
rather than trying to re-check the value from the PF.
Harshitha adds support for MACVLAN offloads in i40e by using channels as
MACVLAN interfaces.
Detlev Casanova updates the e1000e driver to use delayed work instead of
timers to run the watchdog.
Vitaly fixes an issue in e1000e, where when disconnecting and
reconnecting the physical cable connection, the NIC enters a DMoff
state. This state causes a mismatch in link and duplexing, so check the
PCIm function state and perform a PHY reset when in this state to
resolve the issue.
