i40e/i40evf: moderate interrupts differently
The XL710 hardware has a different interrupt moderation design that can support a limit of total interrupts per second per vector, in addition to the "number of interrupts per second" controls already established in the driver. This combination of hardware features allows us to set very low default latency settings but minimize the total CPU utilization by not making too many interrupts, should the user desire. The current driver implementation is still enabling the dynamic moderation in the driver, and only using the rx/tx-usecs limit in ethtool to limit the interrupt rate per second, by default. The new code implemented in this patch 2) adds init/use of the new "Interrupt Limit" register 3) adds ethtool knob to control/report the limits above Usage is ethtool -C ethx rx-usecs-high <value> Where <value> is number of microseconds to create a rate of 1/N interrupts per second, regardless of rx-usecs or tx-usecs values. Since there is a credit based scheme in the hardware, the rx-usecs and tx-usecs can be configured for very low latency for short bursts, but once the credit runs out the refill rate on the credits is limited by rx-usecs-high.
