* igbvf: add lock around mailbox opsGreg Edwards2017-08-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The PF driver assumes the VF will not send another mailbox message until the PF has written its reply to the previous message. If the VF does, that message will be silently dropped by the PF before it writes its reply to the mailbox. This results in a VF mailbox timeout for posted messages waiting for an ACK, and the VF is reset by the igbvf_watchdog_task in the VM. Add a lock around the VF mailbox ops to prevent the VF from sending another message while the PF is still processing the previous one.

* igb/igbvf: don't give upMitch Williams2016-02-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The driver shouldn't just give up if it fails to get the hardware mailbox lock. This can happen in a situation where the PF-VF communication channel is heavily loaded and causes complete communications failure between the PF and VF drivers. Add a counter and a delay. The driver will now retry ten times, waiting one millisecond between retries.

* igbvf: Fix code comments and whitespaceJeff Kirsher2015-02-23
| | | | | | | | | | Fix the code comments to align with the drivers/net/ commenting style. Also fix other checkpatch errors such as using tabs where possible and properly wrap lines to conform to the 80 char limit (unless it is a string).

Remove it from the new location instead. - fs/sysfs/dir.c: Fairly nasty conflicts with the sysfs rb-tree usage, conflicting with Eric Biederman's changes for tagged directories.
