2009-05-29net: convert unicast addr listJiri Pirko
This patch converts unicast address list to standard list_head using previously introduced struct netdev_hw_addr. It also relaxes the locking. Original spinlock (still used for multicast addresses) is not needed and is no longer used for a protection of this list. All reading and writing takes place under rtnl (with no changes). I also removed a possibility to specify the length of the address while adding or deleting unicast address. It's always dev->addr_len. The convertion touched especially e1000 and ixgbe codes when the change is not so trivial.

2009-05-17mv643xx_eth: fix PPC DMA breakageGabriel Paubert
After 2.6.29, PPC no more admits passing NULL to the dev parameter of the DMA API. The result is a BUG followed by solid lock-up when the mv643xx_eth driver brings an interface up. The following patch makes the driver work on my Pegasos again; it is mostly a search and replace of NULL by mp->dev->dev.parent in dma allocation/freeing/mapping/unmapping functions.

It is not a good idea to blindly unmask the RX and TX_END interrupts for all eight queues on all mv643xx_eth hardware, since some variations of the hardware have less than eight transmit/receive queues, and the RX/TX_END interrupts for the queues they don't have can be in use by other interrupt sources.

On the platforms that mv643xx_eth is used on, the manual skb->data alignment logic in mv643xx_eth can be simplified, as the only case we need to handle is where NET_SKB_PAD is not a multiple of the cache line size. If this is the case, the extra padding we need can be computed at compile time, while if NET_SKB_PAD _is_ a multiple of the cache line size, the code can be optimised out entirely.

2009-04-29mv643xx_eth: 64bit mib counter read fixLennert Buytenhek
On several mv643xx_eth hardware versions, the two 64bit mib counters for 'good octets received' and 'good octets sent' are actually 32bit counters, and reading from the upper half of the register has the same effect as reading from the lower half of the register: an atomic read-and-clear of the entire 32bit counter value. This can under heavy traffic occasionally lead to small numbers being added to the upper half of the 64bit mib counter even though no 32bit wrap has occured. Since we poll the mib counters at least every 30 seconds anyway, we might as well just skip the reads of the upper halves of the hardware counters without breaking the stats, which this patch does.

2009-04-29mv643xx_eth: OOM handling fixesLennert Buytenhek
Currently, when OOM occurs during rx ring refill, mv643xx_eth will get into an infinite loop, due to the refill function setting the OOM bit but not clearing the 'rx refill needed' bit for this queue, while the calling function (the NAPI poll handler) will call the refill function in a loop until the 'rx refill needed' bit goes off, without checking the OOM bit. This patch fixes this by checking the OOM bit in the NAPI poll handler before attempting to do rx refill. This means that once OOM occurs, we won't try to do any memory allocations again until the next invocation of the poll handler. While we're at it, change the OOM flag to be a single bit instead of one bit per receive queue since OOM is a system state rather than a per-queue state, and cancel the OOM timer on entry to the NAPI poll handler if it's running to prevent it from firing when we've already come out of OOM.

2009-03-13mv643xx_eth: fix unicast address filter corruption on mtu changeLennert Buytenhek
When mv643xx_eth_open() is called to up an interface, port_start() will first re-program the unicast address filter, and then re-initialise the PORT_CONFIG register, but that will disable unicast promiscuous mode if it was enabled by the unicast address filter setup. This isn't a problem on ifconfig up, as ->set_rx_mode() will be called shortly afterwards which will program the filters again, but it does trigger when changing the MTU, which calls mv643xx_eth_stop() and then mv643xx_eth_open() by hand to repopulate the receive rings with skbuffs of the new size. Swap the initialisation of the PORT_START register and the call to the unicast filter setup function to fix this. Signed-off-by: Lennert Buytenhek <buytenh@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2009-02-18net/mv643xx: don't disable the mib timer too early and lock properlySebastian Siewior
mib_counters_update() also restarts the timer. So the timer is dequeued, the stats are read and then the timer is enqueued again. This is "okay" unless someone unloads the module. The locking here is also broken: mib_counters_update() grabs just a simple spinlock. The only thing the lock is good for is to protect the timer func against other callers namely mv643xx_eth_stop() && mv643xx_eth_get_ethtool_stats(). That means if the spinlock is taken via the ethtool path and than the timer kicks in then the box will lock up.

2009-01-19mv643xx_eth: prevent interrupt storm on ifconfig downGabriel Paubert
Contrary to what the docs say, the 'extended interrupt cause' bit in the interrupt cause register (bit 1) appears to not be maskable on at least some of the mv643xx_eth platforms, making writing zeroes to the interrupt mask register but not the extended interrupt mask register insufficient to stop interrupts from occuring. Therefore, also write zeroes to the extended interrupt mask register when shutting down the port. This fixes the interrupt storm seen on the Pegasos board when shutting down the interface.

Commit 66e63ffbc04706568d8789cbb00eaa8ddbcae648 ("mv643xx_eth: implement ->set_rx_mode()") cleaned up mv643xx_eth's multicast filter programming, but broke it as well. The non-special multicast filter table (for multicast addresses that are not of the form 01:00:5e:00:00:xx) consists of 256 hash table buckets organised as 64 32-bit words, where the 'accept' bits are in the LSB of each byte, so in bits 24 16 8 0 of each 32-bit word. The old code got this right, but the referenced commit broke this by using bits 3 2 1 0 instead. This commit fixes this up.

2008-11-20mv643xx_eth: implement ->set_rx_mode()Lennert Buytenhek
Currently, if multiple unicast addresses are programmed into a mv643xx_eth interface, the core networking will resort to enabling promiscuous mode on the interface, as mv643xx_eth does not implement ->set_rx_mode(). This patch switches mv643xx_eth over from ->set_multicast_list() to ->set_rx_mode(), and implements support for secondary unicast addresses. The hardware can handle multiple unicast addresses as long as their first 11 nibbles are the same (i.e. are of the form xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xy where the x part is the same for all addresses), so if that is the case, we use that mode. If it's not the case, we enable unicast promiscuous mode in the hardware, which is slightly better than enabling promiscuous mode for multicasts as well, which is what would happen before. While we are at it, change the programming sequence so that we don't clear all filter bits first, so we don't lose all incoming packets while the filter is being reprogrammed.

2008-11-03mv643xx_eth: fix SMI bus access timeoutsLennert Buytenhek
The mv643xx_eth mii bus implementation uses wait_event_timeout() to wait for SMI completion interrupts. If wait_event_timeout() would return zero, mv643xx_eth would conclude that the SMI access timed out, but this is not necessarily true -- wait_event_timeout() can also return zero in the case where the SMI completion interrupt did happen in time but where it took longer than the requested timeout for the process performing the SMI access to be scheduled again. This would lead to occasional SMI access timeouts when the system would be under heavy load. The fix is to ignore the return value of wait_event_timeout(), and to re-check the SMI done bit after wait_event_timeout() returns to determine whether or not the SMI access timed out.

2008-10-08phylib: rename mii_bus::dev to mii_bus::parentLennert Buytenhek
In preparation of giving mii_bus objects a device tree presence of their own, rename struct mii_bus's ->dev argument to ->parent, since having a 'struct device *dev' that points to our parent device conflicts with introducing a 'struct device dev' representing our own device.

2008-09-19mv643xx_eth: convert to phylibLennert Buytenhek
Switch mv643xx_eth from using drivers/net/mii.c to using phylib. Since the mv643xx_eth hardware does all the link state handling and PHY polling, the driver will use phylib in the "Doing it all yourself" mode described in the phylib documentation.

2008-09-19mv643xx_eth: enforce frequent hardware statistics pollingLennert Buytenhek
If we don't poll the hardware statistics counters at least once every ~34 seconds, overflow might occur without us noticing. So, set up a timer to poll the statistics counters at least once every 30 seconds. Signed-off-by: Lennert Buytenhek <buytenh@marvell.com>
