Subject: net/ixgbe: fix too many interrupts
X-Git-Url: http://git.droids-corp.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=874f79102d2a15dd50293082842006fbc06572c7;p=dpdk.git

net/ixgbe: fix too many interrupts

To support kernel VF, PBA bit is always set. But it may
cause the too many interrupts issue on specific Linux
kernel versions, e.g. 4.4.0-116.
PF host should set the auto clean, mask and throttling
as we always set the register for kernel VF.
