Mainly focus on files that use BSD 3-Clause license.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
Special thanks to Wind River for providing access to "The Duke of
Highlander" tool: an older (2014) run over FreeBSD tree was useful as a
starting point.
Includes:
- Support for X550EM devices.
- Support for Bypass adapters.
- Flow Director code moved to separate files
- SR-IOV code moved to separate files
- Netmap code moved to separate files

These include standalone X550 adapters, X552 10GbE backplane, and
X552/X557-AT 10GBASE-T; with the latter two being integrated into Xeon D SoCs.
As well, this bumps the ixgbe version number to 2.8.3, and includes updates
to shared code for support for the new devices.

- Split the driver into independent pf and vf loadables. This is
in preparation for SRIOV support which will be following shortly.
This also allows us to keep a seperate revision control over the
two parts, making for easier sustaining.
- Make the TX/RX code a shared/seperated file, in the old code base
the ixv code would miss fixes that went into ixgbe, this model
will eliminate that problem.
- The driver loadables will now match the device names, something that
has been requested for some time.
- Rather than a modules/ixgbe there is now modules/ix and modules/ixv
- It will also be possible to make your static kernel with only one
or the other for streamlined installs, or both.
Enjoy!
