2008-03-17ixgbe: Add optional DCA infrastructureJeb Cramer
82598 cards and up support DCA, which enables the chipset to warm up the caches for upcoming payload data. This code makes the driver plug into the CONFIG_DCA infrastructure that was merged earlier.

2008-03-17ixgbe: Introduce adaptive interrupt moderationAyyappan Veeraiyan
82598 can produce a formidable interrupt rate, and is largely unusable without some form of moderation. The default behaviour before this patch is to limit irq's to a reasonable number. However, just like our other drivers we can reduce latency for small packet-type traffic considerably by allowing the irq rate to go up dynamically. This patch introduces a simple irq moderation algorithm based on traffic analysis. The driver will use more CPU to service small packets quicker but will perform the same on bulk traffic as the old code.

2008-03-17ixgbe: Introduce Multiqueue TXAyyappan Veeraiyan
Now that the irq vector code is in place, we can add the conditional multiqueue TX code in the driver. This requires the optional CONFIG_NETDEVICES_MULTIQUEUE=y and will not be enabled without it.

2008-03-17ixgbe: Introduce MSI-X queue vector codeAyyappan Veeraiyan
This code abstracts the per-queue MSI-X interrupt vector into a queue vector layer. This abstraction is needed since there can be many more queues than available MSI-X vectors in a machine. The MSI-X irq vectors are remapped to a shared queue vector which can point to several (both RX and TX) hardware queues. The NAPI algorithm then cleans the appropriate ring/queues on interrupt or poll. The remapping is a delicate and complex calculation to make sure that we're not unbalancing the irq load, and spreads the irqs as much as possible, and may combine RX and TX flows onto the same queue vector. This effectively enables receive flow hashing across vectors and helps irq load balance across CPUs.

2008-03-17atl1: simplify tx packet descriptorJay Cliburn
The transmit packet descriptor consists of four 32-bit words, with word 3 upper bits overloaded depending upon the condition of its bits 3 and 4. The driver currently duplicates all word 2 and some word 3 register bit definitions unnecessarily and also uses a set of nested structures in its definition of the TPD without good cause. This patch adds a lengthy comment describing the TPD, eliminates duplicate TPD bit definitions, and simplifies the TPD structure itself. It also expands the TSO check to correctly handle custom checksum versus TSO processing using the revised TPD definitions. Finally, shorten some variable names in the transmit processing path to reduce line lengths, rename some variables to better describe their purpose (e.g., nseg versus m), and add a comment or two to better describe what the code is doing.

2008-03-17atl1: fix broken TSOJay Cliburn
The L1 tx packet descriptor expects TCP Header Length to be expressed as a number of 32-bit dwords. The atl1 driver uses tcp_hdrlen() to populate the field, but tcp_hdrlen() returns the header length in bytes, not in dwords. Add a shift to convert tcp_hdrlen() to dwords when we write it to the tpd. Also, some of our bit assignments are made to the wrong tpd words. Change those to the correct words. Finally, since all this fixes TSO, enable TSO by default.

2008-03-17atl1: move common functions to atlx filesJay Cliburn
The future atl2 driver and the existing atl1 driver can share certain functions and definitions. Move these shareable functions and definitions out of atl1-specific files and into atlx.c and atlx.h. Some transitory hackery will be present until atl2 is merged. Reduce the number of source files by moving ethtool, hw, and param functions from separate files into atl1_main.c, then rename it to just atl1.c. Move all atl1-specific definitions from atl1_hw.h to atl1.h. Finally, clean up to make checkpatch.pl happy.

Commit 721fdf34167580ff98263c74cead8871d76936e6 introduced a subtle bug by accidently removing the "static" from iodc_dbuf. This resulted in, what appeared to be, a trap without *current set to a task. Probably the result of a trap in real mode while calling firmware. Also do other misc clean ups.
