      cxgb4vf: make a couple of functions static · ebf6b131
      Colin Ian King authored
      The functions t4vf_link_down_rc_str and t4vf_handle_get_port_info are
      local to the source and do not need to be in global scope, so make
      them static.
      
      Cleans up sparse warnings:
      symbol 't4vf_link_down_rc_str' was not declared. Should it be static?
      symbol 't4vf_handle_get_port_info' was not declared. Should it be static?

      ravb: RX checksum offload · 4d86d381
      Simon Horman authored
      Add support for RX checksum offload. This is enabled by default and
      may be disabled and re-enabled using ethtool:
      
       # ethtool -K eth0 rx off
       # ethtool -K eth0 rx on
      
      The RAVB provides a simple checksumming scheme which appears to be
      completely compatible with CHECKSUM_COMPLETE: sum of all packet data after
      the L2 header is appended to packet data; this may be trivially read by the
      driver and used to update the skb accordingly.
      
      In terms of performance throughput is close to gigabit line-rate both with
      and without RX checksum offload enabled. Perf output, however, appears to
      indicate that significantly less time is spent in do_csum(). This is as
      expected.
      
      Test results with RX checksum offload enabled:

      Above results collected on an R-Car Gen 3 Salvator-X/r8a7796 ES1.0.
      Also tested on a R-Car Gen 3 Salvator-X/r8a7795 ES1.0.
      
      By inspection this also appears to be compatible with the ravb found
      on R-Car Gen 2 SoCs, however, this patch is currently untested on such
      hardware.
