eth: remove neterion/vxge
The last meaningful change to this driver was made by Jon in 2011.
As much as we'd like to believe that this is because the code is
perfect the chances are nobody is using this hardware.
Because of the size of this driver there is a nontrivial maintenance
cost to keeping this code around, in the last 2 years we're averaging
more than 1 change a month. Some of which require nontrivial review
effort, see commit 877fe9d49b ("Revert "drivers/net/ethernet/neterion/vxge:
Fix a use-after-free bug in vxge-main.c"") for example.
Let's try to remove this driver. In general, IMHO, we need to
establish a clear path for shedding dead code. It will be hard
to unless we have some experience trying to delete stuff.

1. Introduction
|
||||
===============
|
||||
|
||||
This Linux driver supports all Neterion's X3100 series 10 GbE PCIe I/O
|
||||
Virtualized Server adapters.
|
||||
|
||||
The X3100 series supports four modes of operation, configurable via
|
||||
firmware:
|
||||
|
||||
- Single function mode
|
||||
- Multi function mode
|
||||
- SRIOV mode
|
||||
- MRIOV mode
|
||||
|
||||
The functions share a 10GbE link and the pci-e bus, but hardly anything else
|
||||
inside the ASIC. Features like independent hw reset, statistics, bandwidth/
|
||||
priority allocation and guarantees, GRO, TSO, interrupt moderation etc are
|
||||
supported independently on each function.
|
||||
|
||||
(See below for a complete list of features supported for both IPv4 and IPv6)
|
||||
|
||||
2. Features supported
|
||||
=====================
|
||||
|
||||
i) Single function mode (up to 17 queues)
|
||||
|
||||
ii) Multi function mode (up to 17 functions)
|
||||
|
||||
iii) PCI-SIG's I/O Virtualization
|
||||
|
||||
- Single Root mode: v1.0 (up to 17 functions)
|
||||
- Multi-Root mode: v1.0 (up to 17 functions)
|
||||
|
||||
iv) Jumbo frames
|
||||
|
||||
X3100 Series supports MTU up to 9600 bytes, modifiable using
|
||||
ip command.
|
||||
|
||||
v) Offloads supported: (Enabled by default)
|
||||
|
||||
- Checksum offload (TCP/UDP/IP) on transmit and receive paths
|
||||
- TCP Segmentation Offload (TSO) on transmit path
|
||||
- Generic Receive Offload (GRO) on receive path
|
||||
|
||||
vi) MSI-X: (Enabled by default)
|
||||
|
||||
Resulting in noticeable performance improvement (up to 7% on certain
|
||||
platforms).
|
||||
|
||||
vii) NAPI: (Enabled by default)
|
||||
|
||||
For better Rx interrupt moderation.
|
||||
|
||||
viii)RTH (Receive Traffic Hash): (Enabled by default)
|
||||
|
||||
Receive side steering for better scaling.
|
||||
|
||||
ix) Statistics
|
||||
|
||||
Comprehensive MAC-level and software statistics displayed using
|
||||
"ethtool -S" option.
|
||||
|
||||
x) Multiple hardware queues: (Enabled by default)
|
||||
|
||||
Up to 17 hardware based transmit and receive data channels, with
|
||||
multiple steering options (transmit multiqueue enabled by default).
|
||||
|
||||
3) Configurable driver parameters:
|
||||
----------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
i) max_config_dev
|
||||
Specifies maximum device functions to be enabled.
|
||||
|
||||
Valid range: 1-8
|
||||
|
||||
ii) max_config_port
|
||||
Specifies number of ports to be enabled.
|
||||
|
||||
Valid range: 1,2
|
||||
|
||||
Default: 1
|
||||
|
||||
iii) max_config_vpath
|
||||
Specifies maximum VPATH(s) configured for each device function.
|
||||
|
||||
Valid range: 1-17
|
||||
|
||||
iv) vlan_tag_strip
|
||||
Enables/disables vlan tag stripping from all received tagged frames that
|
||||
are not replicated at the internal L2 switch.
|
||||
|
||||
Valid range: 0,1 (disabled, enabled respectively)
|
||||
|
||||
Default: 1
|
||||
|
||||
v) addr_learn_en
|
||||
Enable learning the mac address of the guest OS interface in
|
||||
virtualization environment.
|
||||
|
||||
Valid range: 0,1 (disabled, enabled respectively)
|
||||
|
||||
Default: 0
