Subject: [PATCH 00/13] QLogic Virtual NIC (VNIC) Driver
Date: Wednesday, April 30, 2008 - 1:15 pm

Roland,

This is the QLogic Virtual NIC driver patch series which has been tested
against your for-2.6.26 and for-2.6.27 branches. We intended these patches to
make it to the 2.6.26 kernel, but if it is too late for the 2.6.26 merge window
please consider them for 2.6.27.

This patch series adds the QLogic Virtual NIC (VNIC) driver which works in
conjunction with the the QLogic Ethernet Virtual I/O Controller (EVIC) hardware.
The VNIC driver along with the QLogic EVIC's two 10 Gigabit ethernet ports,
enables Infiniband clusters to connect to Ethernet networks. This driver also
works with the earlier version of the I/O Controller, the VEx.

The QLogic VNIC driver creates virtual ethernet interfaces and tunnels the
Ethernet data to/from the EVIC over Infiniband using an Infiniband reliable
connection.

The driver compiles cleanly with sparse endianness checking enabled. We have
also tested the driver with lockdep checking enabled.

We have run these patches through checkpatch.pl and the only warnings are
related to lines slightly longer than 80 columns in some of the statements.

The driver itself has has been tested with long duration iperf, netperf TCP,
UDP streams.
