Currently the routines that configure the HW for DCB require a ixgbe_dcb_config structure. This structure was designed to support the CEE standard and does not match the IEEE standard well. This patch changes the HW routines in ixgbe_dcb_8259x.{ch} to use raw pfc and bandwidth values. This requires some parsing of the DCB configuration but makes the HW routines independent of the data structure that contains the DCB configuration. The primary advantage to doing this is we can do HW setup directly from the 802.1Qaz ops without having to arbitrarily encapsulate this data into the CEE structure. Signed-off-by:

The DCB credits refill quantum _must_ be greater than half the max packet size. This is needed to guarantee that TX DMA operations are not attempted during a pause state. Additionally, the min IFG must be set correctly for DCB mode. If a DMA operation is requested unexpectedly during the pause state the HW data store may be corrupted leading to a DMA hang. The DMA hang requires a reset to correct. This fixes the HW configuration to avoid this condition. Signed-off-by:

This patch adds the DCB (Data Center Bridging) support for 82599 hardware. This is similar to how the 82598 DCB code works. This patch also removes the BCN (Backwards Congestion Notification) netlink configuration code from the driver. BCN was a pre-standard congestion notification framework, and was not what the IEEE body decided upon for standard congestion management. QCN (802.1Qau), Quantized Congestion Notification is the accepted standard, which is not supported by 82599, hence we remove the support altogether. Signed-off-by:
