7d146e1769 net/netvsc: support multicast/promiscuous settings on VF
Provide API's to enable allmulticast and promiscuous in Netvsc PMD
with VF. This keeps the VF and PV path in sync.

dc7680e859 net/netvsc: support integrated VF
Integrate accelerated networking support into netvsc PMD.
This allows netvsc to manage VF without using failsafe or vdev_netvsc.
For the exception vswitch path some tests like transmit
get a 22% increase in packets/sec.
For the VF path, the code is slightly shorter but has no
real change in performance.

Pro:
   * using netvsc is more like other DPDK NIC's
   * the exception packet uses less CPU
   * much smaller code size
   * no locking required on VF transmit/receive path
   * no legacy Linux network device to get mangled by userspace
   * much simpler (1K vs 9K) LOC
   * unified extended statistics

Con:
   * using netvsc has more complex startup model
   * no bifurcated driver support
   * no flow support (since host does not have flow API).
   * no tunnel offload support
   * no receive interrupt support

f6ddcf80ad net/netvsc: implement link state change callback
Implement callback functionality on link state changes.
This is not really driven off of interrupt file descriptor like most other
PMD's. Instead, it happens when a link state change message arrives
in the common ring buffer.

85c4209189 net/netvsc: exhausting Tx descriptors is not an error
If application sends faster than vswitch can keep up, then the
transmit descriptor pool will be exhausted. This is not a failure
so change the name statistic and don't include it in oerrors.

323e7b667f ethdev: make default behavior CRC strip on Rx
Removed DEV_RX_OFFLOAD_CRC_STRIP offload flag.
Without any specific Rx offload flag, default behavior by PMDs is to
strip CRC.

PMDs that support keeping CRC should advertise DEV_RX_OFFLOAD_KEEP_CRC
Rx offload capability.

Applications that require keeping CRC should check PMD capability first
and if it is supported can enable this feature by setting
DEV_RX_OFFLOAD_KEEP_CRC in Rx offload flag in rte_eth_dev_configure()

1f2766b7ee net/netvsc: resize event buffer as needed
The event buffer was changed to be a fixed size value,
had a couple of issues. The big one is that rte_free was still
being called for a pointer that was not setup with rte_malloc().

The event buffer was also too small to handle heavy receive
traffic; and running the event buffer out would crash
the application.

Fix by going back to a dynamically resized event buffer.
And grow it by 25% to avoid lots of realloc's.

0312753ef2 net/netvsc: set lower host latency
Tune the vmbus connection so the host scans faster. This improves
transmit performance. The host default value is 100us but setting
to 50us reduces packet loss significantly.

If setting up chimney buffer fails, then it is not connected so
no need to send disconnect.

530af95a78 bus/vmbus: avoid signalling host on read
Don't signal host that receive ring has been read until all events
have been processed. This reduces the number of guest exits and
therefore improves performance.

7e6c824307 net/netvsc: avoid over filling Rx descriptor ring
If the number of packets requested are already present in the
rx_ring then skip reading the ring buffer from the host.

If the ring between the poll and receive side is full, then don't
poll (let incoming packets stay on host).

If no more transmit descriptors are available, then still try and
flush any outstanding data.

c49825f895 build: fix meson build on FreeBSD
A number of drivers have dependencies on libraries which
are only built on Linux, and so they need to be disabled
on FreeBSD. Rather than basing the disabling on OS, in
each case we base the building of the library on the
presence of the required dependency.

4e9c73e96e net/netvsc: add Hyper-V network device
The driver supports Hyper-V networking directly like
virtio for KVM or vmxnet3 for VMware.

This code is based off of the FreeBSD driver. The file and variable
names are kept the same to help with understanding (with most of the
BSD style warts removed).

This version supports the latest NetVSP 6.1 version and
older versions.
