<content type='text'>
In commit a75e8005d506f3 ("i40e: queue-specific settings for interrupt
moderation") the i40e driver gained support for setting interrupt
moderation values per queue. This patch adds support for this feature
to the i40evf driver as well. In addition, a few changes are made to
the i40e implementation to add function header documentation comments,
as well.

This behaves in a similar fashion to the implementation in i40e. Thus,
requesting the moderation value when no queue is provided will report
queue 0 value, while setting the value without a queue will set all
queues at once.

<title>i40e/i40evf: Add txring_txq function to match fm10k and ixgbe</title>

<id>e486bdfd7c491e997f29fcdf6a4216861ab1d06a</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch adds a txring_txq function which allows us to convert a
i40e_ring/i40evf_ring to a netdev_tx_queue structure.  This way we
can avoid having to make a multi-line function call for all the spots
that need access to this.

<title>i40e: Fix Flow Director raw_buf cleanup</title>

<content type='text'>
The Tx cleanup flow was incorrectly assuming it could check for the flow
director bits after it had unmapped the buffer.  However in this case it
results in us trying to free a raw_buf as though it is an sk_buff.

To fix this I am moving up the flag test for the FD_SB bit so that when
find a non-NULL skb or raw_buf value we then check the flag and use the
appropriate call to free the buffer.

All of the code to support adaptive interrupt throttling is already in
the interrupt handler, it just needs to be enabled. Fill out the data
structures properly to make it happen. Single-flow traffic tests may
show slightly lower throughput, but interrupts per second will drop by
about 75%.

Add ENCAP_CSUM offload negotiation flag. Currently VF assumes checksum
offload for encapsulated packets is supported by default. Going forward,
this feature needs to be negotiated with PF before advertising to the
stack. Hence, we need a flag to control it.
This is in regards to prepping up for VF base mode functionality support.

<title>i40e: Limit TX descriptor count in cases where frag size is greater than 16K</title>

<content type='text'>
The i40e driver was incorrectly assuming that we would always be pulling
no more than 1 descriptor from each fragment.  It is in fact possible for
us to end up with the case where 2 descriptors worth of data may be pulled
when a frame is larger than one of the pieces generated when aligning the
payload to either 4K or pieces smaller than 16K.

To adjust for this we just need to make certain to test all the way to the
end of the fragments as it is possible for us to span 2 descriptors in the
block before us so we need to guarantee that even the last 6 descriptors
have enough data to fill a full frame.
