ixgbe: Replace ndo_add/del_vxlan_port with ndo_add/del_udp_enc_port

2016-06-18T03:23:30+00:00

This change replaces the network device operations for adding or removing a
VXLAN port with operations that are more generically defined to be used for
any UDP offload port but provide a type.  As such by just adding a line to
verify that the offload type is VXLAN we can maintain the same
functionality.

In addition I updated the socket address family check so that instead of
excluding IPv6 we instead abort of type is not IPv4.  This makes much more
sense as we should only be supporting IPv4 outer addresses on this
hardware.

The last change is that I pulled the rtnl_lock/unlock into the conditional
statement for IXGBE_FLAG2_VXLAN_REREG_NEEDED.  The motivation behind this
is to avoid unneeded bouncing of the mutex which will just slow down the
handling of this call anyway.

i40e: Move all UDP port notifiers to single function

2016-06-18T03:23:30+00:00

This patch goes through and combines the notifiers for VXLAN and GENEVE
into a single function for each action.  So there is now one combined
function for getting ports, one for adding the ports, and one for deleting
the ports.

net: intel: remove dead links

2016-04-07T03:54:45+00:00

The Kconfig for Intel NICs references two different URLs for the "Adapter
& Driver ID Guide". Neither of those two links works. The current URL seems
to be
http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/network-and-i-o/ethernet-products/000005584.html
but given it's apparently constantly changing, there's no point in having it
in the help text.

Just keep a generic pointer to http://support.intel.com. Hopefully, this one
will have a longer live. It still works, at least.

Furthermore, remove a link to "the latest Intel PRO/100 network driver for
Linux", this has no place in the mainline kernel and the latest Linux driver
it offers is from 2006, anyway.

e1000e: Adds hardware supported cross timestamp on e1000e nic

2016-03-03T22:28:46+00:00

Modern Intel systems supports cross timestamping of the network device
clock and Always Running Timer (ART) in hardware.  This allows the
device time and system time to be precisely correlated. The timestamp
pair is returned through e1000e_phc_get_syncdevicetime() used by
get_system_device_crosststamp().  The hardware cross-timestamp result
is made available to applications through the PTP_SYS_OFFSET_PRECISE
ioctl which calls e1000e_phc_getcrosststamp().

Revert "i40e: remove CONFIG_I40E_VXLAN"

2015-12-06T16:23:30+00:00

This reverts commit 8fe269991aece394a7ed274f525d96c73f94109a.
The case where VXLAN is a module and i40e driver is inbuilt
will not be handled properly with this change since i40e
will have an undefined symbol vxlan_get_rx_port in it.

i40e: remove CONFIG_I40E_VXLAN

2015-12-03T10:23:35+00:00

Instead of having our own custom symbol, we can just rely
on whether or not the kernel has the feature enabled.

In this case use IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_VXLAN) in order to handle
built-in or module in the current BKM way.

drivers/net: remove all references to obsolete Ethernet-HOWTO

2015-06-23T13:50:35+00:00

This howto made sense in the 1990s when users had to manually configure
ISA cards with jumpers or vendor utilities, but with the implementation
of PCI it became increasingly less and less relevant, to the point where
it has been well over a decade since I last updated it.  And there is
no value in anyone else taking over updating it either.

However the references to it continue to spread as boiler plate text
from one Kconfig file into the next.  We are not doing end users any
favours by pointing them at this old document, so lets kill it with
fire, once and for all, to hopefully stop any further spread.

No code is changed in this commit, just Kconfig help text.
