This critical patch fixes a mac address issue recently introduced. If the
device's mac address was in correct order and the flag
NVREG_TRANSMITPOLL_MAC_ADDR_REV was set, during nv_remove the flag would get
cleared. During next load, the mac address would get reversed because the
flag is missing.
As it has been indicated previously, the flag is cleared across a low power
transition. Therefore, the driver should set the mac address back into the
reversed order when clearing the flag.
Also, the driver should set back the flag after a low power transition to
protect against kexec command calling nv_probe a second time.

a) if you initialize something with le32_to_cpu(...), then |= it
with host-endian and feed to cpu_to_le32(), it's most definitely
*not* __le32. As sparse would've told you...
b) the whole sequence is |= cpu_to_le32(host-endian constant)

This is a critical patch which adds a workaround for a HW bug. The patch
will limit the number of outstanding tx packets to 16. Otherwise, the HW

The driver should inform the stack when checksum has been performed by
the HW when both IP and TCP (or UDP) checksum flags are indicated by HW.
Previously, it would also inform the stack when only IP checksum flag
was indicated by HW. This can cause data corruption when IP fragments
are used. The IP Identification field can wrap around and cause data
from new fragments to fill into older fragment slots with same IP Id.
The stack would then not perform TCP/UDP checksum (after re-assembly of
all fragments) since driver falsely stated it was already calculated.

* misannotation: struct register_test members are actually host-endian

->bufhigh and similar for ->buflow (take low bits, _then_ convert to
little-endian, not the other way round).
* bug: setup_hw_rings() should not convert to little-endian at all (we
feed the result to writel(), not store in shared data structure), let
alone try to play with shifting and masking little-endian values. Introduced
when setup_hw_rings() went in, screwed both 64bit case and the old code for
32bit rings it had replaced.

For cards that initially have the MAC address stored in reverse order,
the forcedeth driver uses a flag to signal whether the address was
already corrected, so that it is not reversed again on a subsequent
probe.
Unfortunately this flag, which is stored in a register of the card,
seems to get lost during suspend, resulting in the MAC address being
reversed again. To fix that, the MAC address needs to be written back
in reversed order before we suspend and the flag needs to be reset.
The flag is still required because at least kexec will never write
back the reversed address and thus needs to know what state the card
is in.

pci_enable_msi() replaces the INTx irq number in pci_dev->irq with the
new MSI irq number.
The forcedeth driver did not update the copy in netdevice->irq and
parts of the driver used the stale copy.
See bugzilla.kernel.org, bug 9047.
The patch
- updates netdevice->irq
- replaces all accesses to netdevice->irq with pci_dev->irq.
The patch is against 2.6.23.1. IMHO suitable for both 2.6.23 and 2.6.24

main change:
* greatly improve per-NIC probe diagnostic output. Similar to other
net drivers, print out MAC address, PHY info, and various hardware and
software flags that may be relevant.
other changes:
* similar to other net drivers, only print the initial version message
when we have found at least one board.
* don't bother to print error message when pci_enable_device() fails,
it will do so for us.
* use dev_printk() rather than printk() in nv_probe(). This gives
use a standardized output similar to the rest of the kernel, and
eliminates the need to manually print out PCI bus id.
* use DRV_NAME constant where appropriate
* clean struct pci_driver indentation

For the operations
get-tx-csum
get-sg
get-tso
get-ufo
the default ethtool_op_xxx behavior is fine for all drivers, so we
permit op==NULL to imply the default behavior.
This provides a more uniform behavior across all drivers, eliminating
ethtool(8) "ioctl not supported" errors on older drivers that had
not been updated for the latest sub-ioctls.
The ethtool_op_xxx() functions are left exported, in case anyone
wishes to call them directly from a driver-private implementation --
a not-uncommon case. Should an ethtool_op_xxx() helper remain unused
for a while, except by net/core/ethtool.c, we can un-export it at a
later date.

Several devices have multiple independant RX queues per net
device, and some have a single interrupt doorbell for several
queues.
In either case, it's easier to support layouts like that if the
structure representing the poll is independant from the net
device itself.
The signature of the ->poll() call back goes from:
int foo_poll(struct net_device *dev, int *budget)
to
int foo_poll(struct napi_struct *napi, int budget)
The caller is returned the number of RX packets processed (or
the number of "NAPI credits" consumed if you want to get
abstract). The callee no longer messes around bumping
dev->quota, *budget, etc. because that is all handled in the
caller upon return.
The napi_struct is to be embedded in the device driver private data
structures.
Furthermore, it is the driver's responsibility to disable all NAPI
instances in it's ->stop() device close handler. Since the
napi_struct is privatized into the driver's private data structures,
only the driver knows how to get at all of the napi_struct instances
it may have per-device.
With lots of help and suggestions from Rusty Russell, Roland Dreier,
Michael Chan, Jeff Garzik, and Jamal Hadi Salim.

If the forcedeth driver receives too much work in an interrupt, it
assumes it has a broken hardware with stuck IRQ. It works around the
problem by disabling interrupts on the nic but makes a printk while
holding device spinlog - which isn't smart thing to do if you have
netconsole on the same nic.
This patch moves the printk's out of the spinlock protected area.
Without this patch the machine hangs hard. With this patch everything
still works even when there is significant increase on CPU usage while
using the nic.

Instead of all drivers reading pci config space to get the revision
ID, they can now use the pci_device->revision member.
This exposes some issues where drivers where reading a word or a dword
for the revision number, and adding useless error-handling around the
read. Some drivers even just read it for no purpose of all.
In devices where the revision ID is being copied over and used in what
appears to be the equivalent of hotpath, I have left the copy code
and the cached copy as not to influence the driver's performance.

I happened to notice that a system with an NVidia NIC using the
forcedeth driver won't wake-on-LAN if the interface was in promiscuous
mode when you power off. By experiment, it looks like
the hardware needs to have NvRegPacketFilterFlags set to
NVREG_PFF_ALWAYS|NVREG_PFF_MYADDR (i.e., receive unicast packets to my
address) in order for WoL to work.

Many drivers had code that did kill_vid, but they weren't doing vlan
filtering. With new API the stub is unneeded unless device sets
NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_FILTER.
Bad habit: I couldn't resist fixing a couple of nearby style things
in acenic, and forcedeth.

This patch fixes the cpu irq mask define to include the timer irq.
Another flag check was setting up the timer bit in all cases so we
didn't notice the issue.

Now to convert the last one, skb->data, that will allow many simplifications
and removal of some of the offset helpers.
