[PATCH net-next v3 1/3] netvsc: transparent VF management

2017-08-01 Thread Stephen Hemminger
This patch implements transparent fail over from synthetic NIC to SR-IOV virtual function NIC in Hyper-V environment. It is a better alternative to using bonding as is done now. Instead, the receive and transmit fail over is done internally inside the driver. Using bonding driver has lots of issue
