* sfc: Use write-combining to reduce TX latencyBen Hutchings2011-03-041-4/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Based on work by Neil Turton <nturton@solarflare.com> and Kieran Mansley <kmansley@solarflare.com>. The BIU has now been verified to handle 3- and 4-dword writes within a single 128-bit register correctly. This means we can enable write- combining and only insert write barriers between writes to distinct registers. This has been observed to save about 0.5 us when pushing a TX descriptor to an empty TX queue. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com>

* sfc: Remove locking from implementation of efx_writeo_paged()Ben Hutchings2010-12-061-1/+14
| | | | | | | | It is not necessary to serialise writes to the paged 128-bit registers. However, if we don't then we must always write the last dword separately, not as part of a qword write. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com>

* sfc: Expand/correct comments on collector behaviour and function usageBen Hutchings2010-12-061-49/+49
| | | | | | | Document exactly which registers and functions have special behaviour, and why races on writes to descriptor pointers are safe. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com>
* sfc: Implement message level controlBen Hutchings2010-06-241-12/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Replace EFX_ERR() with netif_err(), EFX_INFO() with netif_info(), EFX_LOG() with netif_dbg() and EFX_TRACE() and EFX_REGDUMP() with netif_vdbg(). Replace EFX_ERR_RL(), EFX_INFO_RL() and EFX_LOG_RL() using explicit calls to net_ratelimit(). Implement the ethtool operations to get and set message level flags, and add a 'debug' module parameter for the initial value.

* sfc: Rename register I/O header and functions used by both Falcon and SienaBen Hutchings2009-10-241-0/+256
While we're at it, use type suffixes of 'd', 'q' and 'o', consistent with register type names. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
