From 784401bfc0b22b5521492047884e8d834de4dfab Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Todd Fujinaka Date: Fri, 20 Mar 2015 17:41:54 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] igbvf: use netif_carrier_off earlier when bringing if down Use netif_carrier_off() first, since that will prevent the stack from queuing more packets to this IF. This operation is fast, and should behave much nicer when trying to bring down an interface under load.
