2008-07-22sfc: Create one RX queue and interrupt per CPU package by defaultBen Hutchings
Using multiple cores in the same package to handle received traffic does not appear to provide a performance benefit. Therefore use CPU topology information to count CPU packages and use that as the default number of RX queues and interrupts. We rely on interrupt balancing to spread the interrupts across packages.

2008-07-22sfc: Use a separate workqueue for resetsBen Hutchings
This avoids deadlock in case a reset is triggered during self-test. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>
2008-07-15netdev: Do not use TX lock to protect address lists.David S. Miller
Now that we have a specific lock to protect the network device unicast and multicast lists, remove extraneous grabs of the TX lock in cases where the code only needs address list protection. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-07-15netdev: Add netdev->addr_list_lock protection.David S. Miller
Add netif_addr_{lock,unlock}{,_bh}() helpers. Use them to protect operations that operate on or read the network device unicast and multicast address lists. Also use them in cases where the code simply wants to block calls into the driver's ->set_rx_mode() and ->set_multicast_list() methods. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-05-30sfc: Use kernel I2C system and i2c-algo-bit driverBen Hutchings
Remove our own implementation of I2C bit-banging. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>

2008-05-22sfc: Correct and expand some commentsBen Hutchings
These comments have been revised in response to questions raised by Andrew Morton in <20080501120858.207b6dd6.akpm@linux-foundation.org>. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>
2008-05-22sfc: Use resource_size_t for PCI bus addressBen Hutchings
This should make the driver work on 32-bit systems with 64-bit PCI support. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>

2008-05-22sfc: Simplified efx_rx_calc_buffer_size() using get_order()Ben Hutchings
Merged it into its only caller, efx_init_channels(). Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>

2008-05-13[netdrvr] sfc: Add TSO supportBen Hutchings
The SFC4000 controller does not have hardware support for TSO, and the core GSO code incurs a high cost in allocating and freeing skbs. This TSO implementation uses lightweight packet header structures and is substantially faster. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>
2008-04-29New driver "sfc" for Solarstorm SFC4000 controller.Ben Hutchings
The driver supports the 10Xpress PHY and XFP modules on our reference designs SFE4001 and SFE4002 and the SMC models SMC10GPCIe-XFP and SMC10GPCIe-10BT. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>
