2009-08-04igbvf: Allow VF driver to correctly recognize failure to set macAlexander Duyck
The VF driver was not correctly recognizing that it did not correctly set it's mac address. As a result the VF driver was unable to receive network traffic until being unloaded and reloaded. The issue was root caused to the fact that the CTS bit was not taken into account when checking for the request being NAKed.

2009-04-11igbvf: fix unused external referencesAlexander Duyck
The igbvbf driver exposed several unused extrnal references due to the fact that code was copied from igb and then some functionality was removed. This changes that so that unused functions are either removed or made static.

2009-04-08igbvf: add new driver to support 82576 virtual functionsAlexander Duyck
This adds an igbvf driver to handle virtual functions provided by the igb driver when SR-IOV has been enabled. A virtual function is a lightweight pci-e function that supports a single queue and shares resources with the 82576 physical function contained within the igb driver. To spawn virtual functions from the igb driver all that is needed is to enable CONFIG_PCI_IOV and have an 82576 Ethernet adapter on a system that supports SR-IOV in the BIOS. The virtual functions will appear after the interface is loaded.
