2009-09-30be2net: Workaround to fix a bug in Rx Completion processing.Ajit Khaparde
vtp bit in RX completion descriptor could be wrongly set in some skews of BladEngine. Ignore this bit if vtm is not set. Resending because the previous patch was against net-next tree. This patch is against the net-2.6 tree. Signed-off-by: Ajit Khaparde <ajitk@serverengines.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-09-17be2net: fix some cmds to use mccq instead of mboxSathya Perla
All cmds issued to BE after the creation of mccq must now use the mcc-q (and not mbox) to avoid a hw issue that results in mbox poll timeout. Signed-off-by: Sathya Perla <sathyap@serverengines.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-09-07be2net: Changes to support flashing of the be2 network adapterAjit Khaparde
Changes to support flashing of the be2 network adapter using the request_firmware() & ethtool infrastructure. The trigger to flash the device will come from ethtool utility. The driver will invoke request_firmware() to start the flash process. The file containing the flash image is expected to be available in /lib/firmware/ Signed-off-by: Ajit Khaparde <ajitk@serverengines.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-09-02netdev: drivers should make ethtool_ops constStephen Hemminger
No need to put ethtool_ops in data, they should be const. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-08-01be2net: remove pci_func field from be_adapter structSathya Perla
pci function is available as PCI_FUNC(pdev->devfn); no need for a separate field. Signed-off-by: Sathya Perla <sathyap@serverengines.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-08-01be2net: get rid of be_ctrl_info struct/abstractionSathya Perla
Currently only the be_ctrl_info struct ptr (instead of adapter) is passed to all the routines in be_cmds.c. Instead pass be_adapter ptr to allow access to all its fields. Merge the contents of struct be_ctrl_info into be_adapter. The resulting code is simpler. Signed-off-by: Sathya Perla <sathyap@serverengines.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-07-23be2net: Add GRO support to the be2net driver. LRO is not supported anymore.Ajit Khaparde
This patch removes support for INET_LRO and switches over to GRO. Signed-off-by: Ajit Khaparde <ajitk@serverengines.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-06-28be2net: Fix to avoid a crash seen on PPC with LRO and Jumbo frames.Ajit Khaparde
While testing the driver on PPC, we ran into a crash with LRO, Jumbo frames. With CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES configured (a default in PPC), MAX_SKB_FRAGS drops to 3 and we were crossing the array limits on skb_shinfo(skb)->frags[]. Now we coalesce the frags from the same physical page into one slot in skb_shinfo(skb)->frags[] and go to the next index when the frag is from different physical page. This patch is against the net-2.6 tree. Signed-off-by: Ajit Khaparde <ajitk@serverengines.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-06-19be2net: receive asynchronous link status notifications from BESathya Perla
Rcv and process ansync link status notifications from BE instead of polling for link status in the be_worker thread. Signed-off-by: Sathya Perla <sathyap@serverengines.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-06-19be2net: cleanup multicast_set cmd to avoid mc_list copySathya Perla
Cleanup multicast_set method to avoid an extra copy of mc_list and unwanted promiscuos sets to BE. Signed-off-by: Sathya Perla <sathyap@serverengines.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-06-19be2net: Add MCC queue mechanism for BE cmdsSathya Perla
Currenlty all cmds use the blocking MCC mbox to post cmds. An mbox cmd is protected via a spin_lock(cmd_lock) and not spin_lock_bh() as it is undesirable to disable BHs while a blocking mbox cmd is in progress (and take long to finish.) This can lockup a cmd in progress in process context. Instead cmds that may be called in BH context must use the MCC queue to post cmds. The cmd completions are rcvd in a separate completion queue and the events are placed in the tx-event queue. Signed-off-by: Sathya Perla <sathyap@serverengines.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2009-03-24be2net: cleanup rx/tx rate calculationsSathya Perla
Hi, Pls accept this patch to cleanup rx/tx rate calculations as follows: - check for jiffies wraparound - remove typecast of a denominator - do rate calculation only in workqueue context periodically Signed-off-by: Sathya Perla <sathyap@serverengines.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
