Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/8][pull request] ice: use less resources in switchdev
Michal Swiatkowski says:
Switchdev is using one queue per created port representor. This can
quickly lead to Rx queue shortage, as with subfunction support user
can create high number of PRs.
Save one MSI-X and 'number of PRs' * 1 queues.
Refactor switchdev slow-path to use less resources (even no additional
resources). Do this by removing control plane VSI and move its
functionality to PF VSI. Even with current solution PF is acting like
uplink and can't be used simultaneously for other use cases (adding
filters can break slow-path).
In short, do Tx via PF VSI and Rx packets using PF resources. Rx needs
additional code in interrupt handler to choose correct PR netdev.
Previous solution had to queue filters, it was way more elegant but
needed one queue per PRs. Beside that this refactor mostly simplifies
switchdev configuration.
The following are changes since commit 537c2e91d3549e5d6020bb0576cf9b54a845255f:
Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net
