Alex Duyck splits up the descriptor count function from the function that stops the ring to have access to the descriptor count used for the data portion of the frame. The rewrites the logic for how we determine if we can transmit the frame or if it needs to be linearized. Place the checksum close to TSO since they have a lot in common and it can help to reduce the decision tree for how to handle the frame as the first check in TSO is to see if checksumming is offloaded. Carolyn adds functions to blink leds on devices using 10GBaseT PHY since MAC registers used in other designs do not work in this device configuration. Fixes an issue where a previously removed message has returned. Kevin increases the timeout when checking GLGEN_RSTAT_DEVSTATE bit since linking with particular PHY types, the amount of time it takes for the GLGEN_RSTAT_DEVSTATE to be set increases greatly. Neerav changes the receive queues to not wait to be disabled before DCB has been reconfigured, like transmit queues. Anjali adds new register definitions for programming the parser, flow director and RSS blocks in the hardware. Shannon adds the new opcodes and structures used for asking the firmware to update receive control registers that need extra care when being accessed while under heavy traffic. Integrates the new AdminQ functions for safely accessing the receive control registers that may be affected by heavy small packet traffic. Mitch provides another colorful patch description on letting go of the stale local VSI pointer when the VF resets. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
