* forcedeth: realtek phy crossover detectionAyaz Abdulla2008-04-251-42/+178
| | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes an issue seen with the realtek 8201 phy. This phy has a problem with crossover detection and it needs to be disabled. The problem only arises on certain switches. Therefore, a module parameter has been added to allow enabling crossover detection if needed. The default will be set to disabled.

* forcedeth: new backoff implementationAyaz Abdulla2008-04-251-34/+178
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds support for a new backoff algorithm for half duplex supported in newer hardware. The old method is will be designated as legacy mode. Re-seeding random values for the backoff algorithms are performed when a transmit has failed due to a maximum retry count (1 to 15, where max is considered the wraparound case of 0).

| * forcedeth: mac address fixAyaz Abdulla2008-04-121-2/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This critical patch fixes a mac address issue recently introduced. If the device's mac address was in correct order and the flag NVREG_TRANSMITPOLL_MAC_ADDR_REV was set, during nv_remove the flag would get cleared. During next load, the mac address would get reversed because the flag is missing. As it has been indicated previously, the flag is cleared across a low power transition. Therefore, the driver should set the mac address back into the reversed order when clearing the flag. Also, the driver should set back the flag after a low power transition to protect against kexec command calling nv_probe a second time.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The driver should inform the stack when checksum has been performed by the HW when both IP and TCP (or UDP) checksum flags are indicated by HW. Previously, it would also inform the stack when only IP checksum flag was indicated by HW. This can cause data corruption when IP fragments are used. The IP Identification field can wrap around and cause data from new fragments to fill into older fragment slots with same IP Id. The stack would then not perform TCP/UDP checksum (after re-assembly of all fragments) since driver falsely stated it was already calculated.

* [FORCEDETH]: Fix reversing the MAC address on suspend.Björn Steinbrink2008-01-081-4/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For cards that initially have the MAC address stored in reverse order, the forcedeth driver uses a flag to signal whether the address was already corrected, so that it is not reversed again on a subsequent probe. Unfortunately this flag, which is stored in a register of the card, seems to get lost during suspend, resulting in the MAC address being reversed again. To fix that, the MAC address needs to be written back in reversed order before we suspend and the flag needs to be reset. The flag is still required because at least kexec will never write back the reversed address and thus needs to know what state the card is in.

* [NET]: Make NAPI polling independent of struct net_device objects.Stephen Hemminger2007-10-101-31/+38
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Several devices have multiple independant RX queues per net device, and some have a single interrupt doorbell for several queues. In either case, it's easier to support layouts like that if the structure representing the poll is independant from the net device itself. The signature of the ->poll() call back goes from: int foo_poll(struct net_device *dev, int *budget) to int foo_poll(struct napi_struct *napi, int budget) The caller is returned the number of RX packets processed (or the number of "NAPI credits" consumed if you want to get abstract). The callee no longer messes around bumping dev->quota, *budget, etc. because that is all handled in the caller upon return. The napi_struct is to be embedded in the device driver private data structures. Furthermore, it is the driver's responsibility to disable all NAPI instances in it's ->stop() device close handler. Since the napi_struct is privatized into the driver's private data structures, only the driver knows how to get at all of the napi_struct instances it may have per-device.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the forcedeth driver receives too much work in an interrupt, it assumes it has a broken hardware with stuck IRQ. It works around the problem by disabling interrupts on the nic but makes a printk while holding device spinlog - which isn't smart thing to do if you have netconsole on the same nic. This patch moves the printk's out of the spinlock protected area. Without this patch the machine hangs hard.

* [NET]: ethtool_perm_addr only has one implementationMatthew Wilcox2007-07-311-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | All drivers implement ethtool get_perm_addr the same way -- by calling the generic function. So we can inline the generic function into the caller and avoid going through the drivers. Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox <matthew@wil.cx> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

* | PCI: Change all drivers to use pci_device->revisionAuke Kok2007-07-111-3/+1
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of all drivers reading pci config space to get the revision ID, they can now use the pci_device->revision member. This exposes some issues where drivers where reading a word or a dword for the revision number, and adding useless error-handling around the read. Some drivers even just read it for no purpose of all. In devices where the revision ID is being copied over and used in what appears to be the equivalent of hotpath, I have left the copy code and the cached copy as not to influence the driver's performance. Compile tested with make all{yes,mod}config on x86_64 and i386.

* forcedeth: use unicast receive mode for WoLTim Mann2007-06-201-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I happened to notice that a system with an NVidia NIC using the forcedeth driver won't wake-on-LAN if the interface was in promiscuous mode when you power off. By experiment, it looks like the hardware needs to have NvRegPacketFilterFlags set to NVREG_PFF_ALWAYS|NVREG_PFF_MYADDR (i.e., receive unicast packets to my address) in order for WoL to work.

| | | | | | | | | | | | Many drivers had code that did kill_vid, but they weren't doing vlan filtering. With new API the stub is unneeded unless device sets NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_FILTER. Bad habit: I couldn't resist fixing a couple of nearby style things in acenic, and forcedeth.
