We noticed performance issues with VF interface on sparc compared to PF. Setting the RX to IXGBE_DCA_RXCTRL_DATA_WRO_EN brings it on far with PF. Also this matches to the default sparc setting in PF driver. Signed-off-by: Babu Moger <redacted> Acked-by: Sowmini Varadhan <redacted> --- v2: Alexander had concerns about this negativily affecting other architectures. Added CONFIG_SPARC check so this should not affect other architectures. drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ixgbevf/ixgbevf_main.c | 6 ++++++ 1 files changed, 6 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-)
