Subject: s390/qeth: indicate error when netdev allocation fails
Patch-mainline: v4.19-rc4
Git-commit: 778b1ac737494cec156f17c80da44664c1f77cf6
References: FATE#326350, LTC#169511, bsc#1113509
Summary: qeth: performance improvements
Description: This adds recent functional and performance improvements for the
qeth network driver.
Primarily this brings Scatter-Gather support for HiperSockets,
reduced CPU consumption in the L3 IPv4 transmit path for OSA,
improved Promiscuous Mode performance due to IFF_UNICAST_FLT,
support for Scatter-Gather on z/VM virtual NICs, and
support for delayed GRO flushing.
For sanity & stability reasons, this effectively constitutes a
backport of the qeth device driver from 4.19 mainline.
Upstream-Description:
s390/qeth: indicate error when netdev allocation fails
Bailing out on allocation error is nice, but we also need to tell the
ccwgroup core that creating the qeth groupdev failed.
