2008-12-25forcedeth: don't poll NV event 36Johannes Berg
Polling doesn't seem to be necessary on my hardware, at least I haven't seen any bad effects testing it a while. Remove the polling so the CPU doesn't have to wake up a hundred times per second.

2008-12-22net: Remove unused netdev arg from some NAPI interfaces.Neil Horman
When the napi api was changed to separate its 1:1 binding to the net_device struct, the netif_rx_[prep|schedule|complete] api failed to remove the now vestigual net_device structure parameter.

2008-12-08netdevice: Kill netdev->privWang Chen
This is the last shoot of this series. After I removing all directly reference of netdev->priv, I am killing "priv" of "struct net_device" and fixing relative comments/docs. Anyone will not be allowed to reference netdev->priv directly. If you want to reference the memory of private data, use netdev_priv() instead. If the private data is not allocted when alloc_netdev(), use netdev->ml_priv to point that memory after you creating that private data.

2008-12-03forcedeth: power down phy when interface is downEd Swierk
Bring the physical link down when the interface is down by placing the PHY in power-down state, unless WOL is enabled. This mirrors the behavior of other drivers including e1000 and tg3. Without the patch, ifconfig down leaves the physical link up, which confuses datacenter users who expect the link lights both on the NIC and the switch to go out when they bring an interface down. Furthermore, even though the phy is powered on, autonegotiation stops working, so a normally gigabit link might suddenly become 100 Mbit half-duplex when the interface goes down, and become gigabit when it comes up again. Ayaz said: I would not include this patch until further testing is performed. NVIDIA MCP chips use 3rd party PHY vendors. By powering down the phy, it could have adverse affects on certain phys. Arthur Jones said: I just ran across this patch. Tested on a Marvell 88E1121R (GigE PHY) and works great. This is a very important feature for me.

This patch moves neigh_setup and hard_start_xmit into the network device ops structure. For bisection, fix all the previously converted drivers as well. Bonding driver took the biggest hit on this.

2008-11-03drivers/net: Kill now superfluous ->last_rx stores.David S. Miller

Some cases had to be skipped over because the drivers were making use of the ->last_rx value themselves. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-11-02forcdeth: increase max_interrupt_workJoe Korty
This eliminates the following often-generated warning from my 64 bit Opteron SMP test stand: eth0: too many iterations (6) in nv_nic_irq According to the web, the problem is that the forcedeth driver has a too-low value for max_interrupt_work. Grepping the kernel I see that forcedeth has the second lowest value of all ethernet drivers (ie, 6). Most are in the 20-40 range. So this patch increases this a bit, from 6 to 15 (at 15 forcedeth becomes the driver with third-lowest max_interrupt_work value). My test stand, which used to print out the above warnings repetitively whenever it was under heavy net load, no longer does so.

2008-09-05forcedeth: fix kexec regressionRafael J. Wysocki
Fix regression tracked as http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11361 and caused by commit f735a2a1a4f2a0f5cd823ce323e82675990469e2 ("[netdrvr] forcedeth: setup wake-on-lan before shutting down") that makes network adapters integrated into the NVidia MCP55 chipsets fail to work in kexeced kernels. The problem appears to be that if the adapter is put into D3_hot during ->shutdown(), it cannot be brought back into D0 after kexec (ref. http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=121900062814967&w=4). Therefore, only put forcedeth into D3 during ->shutdown() if the system is to be powered off. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2008-08-27forcedeth: fix checksum flagAyaz Abdulla
Fix the checksum feature advertised in device flags. The hardware support TCP/UDP over IPv4 and TCP/UDP over IPv6 (without IPv6 extension headers). However, the kernel feature flags do not distinguish IPv6 with/without extension headers. Therefore, the driver needs to use NETIF_F_IP_CSUM instead of NETIF_F_HW_CSUM since the latter includes all IPv6 packets. A future patch can be created to check for extension headers and perform software checksum calculation.

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.

Various registers need to be preserved before resetting the device. Signed-off-by: Ayaz Abdulla <aabdulla@nvidia.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
2008-02-06forcedeth: phy status fixAyaz Abdulla
The driver needs to ack only the phy status bits that it is currently handling and preserve the other bits for the other handlers. For example, when reading/writing from the phy, it should not clear the link change interrupt bit. This will cause a missing link change interrupt.

2008-02-03forcedeth: checksum fixAyaz Abdulla
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.
