2007-06-03e1000: disable polling before registering netdeviceAuke Kok
To assure the symmetry of poll enable/disable in up/down, we should initialize the netdevice to be poll_disabled at load time. Doing this after register_netdevice leaves us open to another race, so lets move all the netif_* calls above register_netdevice so the stack starts out how we expect it to be.

2007-05-30e1000: restore netif_poll_enable call but make sure IRQs are offHerbert Xu
This restores the previously removed netif_poll_enable call in e1000_open. It's needed on all but the first call to e1000_open for a NIC as e1000_close always calls netif_poll_disable. netif_poll_enable can only be called safely if no polls have been scheduled. This should be the case as long as we don't enter our IRQ handler. In order to guarantee this we explicitly disable IRQs as early as possible when we're probing the NIC.

e1000_clean(), kernel 2.6.21.1) Herbert Xu wrote: "netif_poll_enable can only be called if you've previously called netif_poll_disable. Otherwise a poll might already be in action and you may get a crash like this." Removing the call to netif_poll_enable in e1000_open should fix this issue, the only other call to netif_poll_enable is in e1000_up() which is only reached after a device reset or resume.

2007-05-17e1000: Fix msi enable leak on error, don't print error message, cleanupAuke Kok
pci_enable_msi failure is a normal event so we should not print any error. Going over the code I spotted a missing pci_disable_msi() leak when irq allocation fails. The whole code also needed a cleanup, so I combined the two different calls to pci_request_irq into a single call making this look a lot better. All #ifdef CONFIG_PCI_MSI's have been removed.

2007-05-09unify flush_work/flush_work_keventd and rename it to cancel_work_syncOleg Nesterov
flush_work(wq, work) doesn't need the first parameter, we can use cwq->wq (this was possible from the very beginnig, I missed this). So we can unify flush_work_keventd and flush_work. Also, rename flush_work() to cancel_work_sync() and fix all callers. Perhaps this is not the best name, but "flush_work" is really bad.

2007-04-28user of the jiffies rounding code: e1000Arjan van de Ven
Use the round_jiffies() function in e1000. These timers all were of the "about once a second" or "about once every X seconds" variety and several showed up in the "what wakes the cpu up" profiles that the tickless patches provide. Some timers are highly dynamic based on network load; but even on low activity systems they still show up so the rounding is done only in cases of low activity, allowing higher frequency timers in the high activity case. The various hardware watchdogs are an obvious case; they run every 2 seconds but aren't otherwise specific of exactly when they need to run.

2007-04-25[NETDRV]: Perform missing csum_offset conversionsHerbert Xu
When csum_offset was introduced we did a conversion from csum to csum_offset where applicable. A couple of drivers were missed in this process. It was harmless to begin with since the two fields coincided. Now that we've made them different with the addition of csum_start, the missed drivers must be converted or they can't send packets out at all that require checksum offload.

2007-04-19Revert "e1000: fix NAPI performance on 4-port adapters"Linus Torvalds
This reverts commit 60cba200f11b6f90f35634c5cd608773ae3721b7. It's been linked to lockups of the e1000 hardware, see for example https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=229603 but it's likely that the commit itself is not really introducing the bug, but just allowing an unrelated problem to rear its ugly head (ie one current working theory is that the code exposes us to a hardware race condition by decreasing the amount of time we spend in each NAPI poll cycle). We'll revert it until root cause is known. Intel has a repeatable reproduction on two different machines and bus traces of the hardware doing something bad.

2006-12-26e1000: Do not truncate TSO TCP header with 82544 workaroundHerbert Xu
The e1000 driver has a workaround for 82544 on PCI-X where if the terminating byte of a buffer is at addresses 0-3 mod 8, then 4 bytes are shaved off it and defered to a new segment. This is due to an erratum that could otherwise cause TX hangs. Unfortunately this breaks TSO because it may cause the TCP header to be split over two segments which itself causes TX hangs. The solution is to pull 4 bytes of data up from the next segment rather than pushing 4 bytes off. This ensures the TCP header remains in one piece and works around the PCI-X hang. This patch is based on one from Jesse Brandeburg. This bug has been trigered by both CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB as well as Xen. Note that the only reason we don't see this normally is because the TCP stack starts writing from the end, i.e., it writes the TCP header first then slaps on the IP header, etc. So the end of the TCP header (skb->tail - 1 here) is always aligned correctly. Had we made the start of the IP header (e.g., IPv6) 8-byte aligned instead, this would happen for normal TCP traffic as well.

2006-12-26[PATCH] e1000: No-delay link detection at interface upJesse Brandeburg
Currently after an interface up, the link state is detected 2 seconds later when the first watchdog timer runs. This patch changes that by triggering the hardware to generate a link-change interrupt from the up() function instead. This has the result that the link state gets detected immediately and without races. This has the potential to speed up booting since a normal distribution boot process waits for a link before DHCP is attempted.
