2009-02-01smsc911x: allow mac address to be saved before device resetSteve Glendinning
Some platforms (for example pcm037) do not have an EEPROM fitted, instead storing their mac address somewhere else. The bootloader fetches this and configures the ethernet adapter before the kernel is started. This patch allows a platform to indicate to the driver via the SMSC911X_SAVE_MAC_ADDRESS flag that the mac address has already been configured via such a mechanism, and should be saved before resetting the chip.

2009-02-01smsc911x: add external phy detection overridesSteve Glendinning
On LAN9115/LAN9117/LAN9215/LAN9217, external phys are supported. These are usually indicated by a hardware strap which sets an "external PHY detected" bit in the HW_CFG register. In some cases it is desirable to override this hardware strap and force use of either the internal phy or an external PHY. This patch adds SMSC911X_FORCE_INTERNAL_PHY and SMSC911X_FORCE_EXTERNAL_PHY flags so a platform can indicate this preference via its platform_data.

Convert the driver to select 16-bit or 32-bit bus access at runtime, at a small performance cost. Signed-off-by: Steve Glendinning <steve.glendinning@smsc.com> Acked-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-11-06SMSC LAN911x and LAN921x vendor driverSteve Glendinning
Attached is a driver for SMSC's LAN911x and LAN921x families of embedded ethernet controllers. There is an existing smc911x driver in the tree; this is intended to replace it. Dustin McIntire (the author of the smc911x driver) has expressed his support for switching to this driver. This driver contains workarounds for all known hardware issues, and has been tested on all flavours of the chip on multiple architectures. This driver now uses phylib, so this patch also adds support for the device's internal phy Signed-off-by: Steve Glendinning <steve.glendinning@smsc.com> Signed-off-by: Bahadir Balban <Bahadir.Balban@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Dustin Mcintire <dustin@sensoria.com> Signed-off-by: Bill Gatliff <bgat@billgatliff.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>
