This series contains fixes to i40e only.
Stefan Assmann provides the changes in this series to resolve an issue
where when we run out of MSIx vectors, iWARP gets disabled automatically.
First adds a check for "no vectors left" during MSIx vector allocation
for VMDq, which will prevent more vectors
From: Stefan Assmann
The driver allocates 1 vector per CPU thread and the current hardware
limit for vectors is 129 per PF. On systems with 128 or more threads
this currently means all vectors are used by the PF leaving no room for
additional features like VMDq, iWARP, etc...
The code that should
From: Stefan Assmann
Currently if the MSI-X vector limit is reached the sideband flow
director gets disabled. A bit too early to make that decision, as
vectors may get re-distributed. So move the check further back.

The Broadcom PHYs unconditionally enable this feature.

Set bit 0 in register 1C.23 to enable the EDPD feature of the
KSZ9031 PHY. This reduces power consumption when the link is
down. To use this, set "enable-edpd" in the devicetree.

Writes to u16 has a special handling on 3 PXA platforms, where the
hardware wiring forces these writes to be u32 aligned.
This patch isolates this handling for PXA platforms as before, but
enables this "workaround" to be set up dynamically, which will be the
case in device-tree build types.
This

For device-tree builds, platforms such as mainstone, idp and stargate2
must have their u16 writes all aligned on 32 bit boundaries. This is
already enabled in platform data builds, and this patch adds it to
device-tree builds.

Hi Andrew,
Thank you for code review and valuable comments.

This allows full 64K skbuffs (with 1500 mtu ethernet, composed of 45
fragments) to be handled by netback for to-guest rx.

This series refactors the guest rx side of xen-netback:
- The code is moved into its own source module.
- The prefix variant of GSO handling is retired (since it is no longer
in common use, and alternatives exist).
- The code is then simplified and modifications made to improve
performance.
The netback source module has become very large and somewhat confusing.
This patch simply moves all code related to the backend to frontend (i.e
guest side rx) data-path into a separate rx source module.
This patch contains no functional change, it is code movement and
minimal changes to avoid pat

Refactor the to-guest (rx) path to:
1. Push responses for completed skbs earlier, reducing latency.
2. Reduce the per-queue memory overhead by greatly reducing the
maximum number of grant copy ops in each hypercall (from 4352 to
64). Each struct xenvif_queue is now onl
From: David Vrabel
Instead of flushing the copy ops when an packet is complete, complete
packets when their copy ops are done. This improves performance by
reducing the number of grant copy hypercalls.
Latency is still limited by the relatively small size of the copy
batch.

Instead of only placing one skb on the guest rx ring at a time, process
a batch of up-to 64. This improves performance by ~10% in some tests.

As far as I am aware only very old Windows network frontends make use of
this style of passing GSO packets from backend to frontend. These
frontends can easily be replaced by the freely available Xen Project
