Add support for DMA Coalescing (DMAC) hardware feature. The feature allows synchronization of port DMA activity across ports in order to optimize power consumption. DMAC is supported on igb and ixgbe devices. Support for enabling and configuring the DMAC watchdog timer is via the ethtool coalesce [-c|-C] dmac option added with this patch. Since DMAC is disabled when interrupt moderation is disabled, placing the dmac option in the coalesce command provides related -c 'show' information with a single command. The dmac option allows the users to disable DMAC, or enable and set the DMAC watchdog timer. When in coalescing mode, this timer starts counting down when the first transaction is batched. The controller moves to the not coalescing state when the watchdog timer reaches zero. Set usage: ethtool -C DEVNAME dmac [0 | N] Where 0 disables DMAC, and N is watchdog timer interval in usecs. The device driver will check that N is within a valid range. Example: Enable and configure DMAC watchdog timer to 1000 usecs: # ethtool -C dmac 1000 Disable DMAC: # ethtool -C dmac 0 Signed-off-by: Paul Greenwalt <paul.greenwalt@intel.com> --- ethtool-copy.h | 2 ++ ethtool.8.in | 1 + ethtool.c | 8 +++++++- 3 files changed, 10 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-)
