This is a RFC for inclusion of the Intel igb wired ethernet driver. Patches are split per kernel release that makes it easier to review the changes and gives a nice history of what was necessary for each release. Also the igb driver changes have been split up into individual patches in patches/collateral-evolutions/network/82-ethernet. This and file names are up for discussion, suggestions welcome.
Support goes back to kernel 3.0 since current igb relies on ptp support which got introduced in 3.0. Currently the patches still break for kernel before 3.0 but I wanted to get the RFC out, this should be fixed next time. One thing I'm not sure how to fix is the following HWMON warning. make KLIB=/lib/modules/3.0.0 defconfig-igb make[2]: `conf' is up to date. boolean symbol HWMON tested for 'm'? test forced to 'n' boolean symbol HWMON tested for 'm'? test forced to 'n' Patches apply against tag backports-20131206, feedback is very welcome.
