2019-11-07net: atlantic: change email domains to MarvellIgor Russkikh1-3/+3
Aquantia is now part of Marvell, eventually we'll cease standalone aquantia.com domain. Thus, change the maintainers file and some other references to @marvell.com domain Signed-off-by: Igor Russkikh <irusskikh@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2019-11-07net: atlantic: implement UDP GSO offloadIgor Russkikh1-0/+15
atlantic hardware does support UDP hardware segmentation offload. This allows user to specify one large contiguous buffer with data which then will be split automagically into multiple UDP packets of specified size. Bulk sending of large UDP streams lowers CPU usage and increases bandwidth. We did estimations both with udpgso_bench_tx test tool and with modified iperf3 measurement tool (4 streams, multithread, 200b packet size) over AQC<->AQC 10G link. Flow control is disabled to prevent RX side impact on measurements.

2019-11-07net: atlantic: loopback tests via private flagsIgor Russkikh1-0/+25
Here we add a number of ethtool private flags to allow enabling various loopbacks on HW. Thats useful for verification and bringup works. Signed-off-by: Igor Russkikh <irusskikh@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
