Sebastian adds support for firmware NVM recovery mode, which logs a message when errors are detected and un-registers the device. Also fixed RSS type recognition with VF to VF communication. Shannon Nelson implements IPsec hardware offload for VF devices in Intel's 10GbE x540 family of Ethernet devices. The IPsec HW offload feature has been in the x540/Niantic family of network devices since their release in 2009, but there was no Linux kernel support for the offload until 2017. After the XFRM code added support for the offload last year, the HW offload was added to the ixgbe PF driver. Since the related x540 VF device uses same setup as the PF for implementing the offload, adding the feature to the ixgbevf seemed like a good idea. In this case, the PF owns the device registers, so the VF simply packages up the request information into a VF<->PF message and the PF does the device configuration. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
