[TG3]: Fix ethtool autonegotiate flags.
I recently noticed that when calling: # ethtool -s eth0 autoneg on on a 5722 (though I'm sure it's not specific to that card) that subsequent checks of the cards status looked like this: # ethtool eth0 Settings for eth0: Supported ports: [ MII ] Supported link modes: 10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full 100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full 1000baseT/Half 1000baseT/Full Supports auto-negotiation: Yes Advertised link modes: 10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full 100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full 1000baseT/Half 1000baseT/Full Advertised auto-negotiation: No <---- This seems odd?!? Speed: 1000Mb/s Duplex: Full Port: Twisted Pair PHYAD: 1 Transceiver: internal Auto-negotiation: on Supports Wake-on: g Wake-on: d Current message level: 0x000000ff (255) Link detected: yes I noticed that the following commit: commit 3600d918d870456ea8e7bb9d47f327de5c20f3d6 Author: Michael Chan <mchan@broadcom.com> Date: Thu Dec 7 00:21:48 2006 -0800 [TG3]: Allow partial speed advertisement. Honor the advertisement bitmask from ethtool. We used to always advertise the full capability when autoneg was set to on. changed things around so that ethtool speed settings were strictly followed. Unfortunately ethtool doesn't seem to set ADVERTISED_Autoneg in the advertising field (and maybe it shouldn't have to). I'd vote that it should be fixed there, but it should also be added here just in case someone using ethtool ioctls in their own application gets what they want. Adding that flag in tg3_set_settings seemed like the most logical place since the driver works fine on boot. This is just an issue when re-enabling autonegotiation, so we should probably nip it there.
