2005-06-28[NET]: Remove gratuitous use of skb->tail in network drivers.David S. Miller
Many drivers use skb->tail unnecessarily. In these situations, the code roughly looks like: dev = dev_alloc_skb(...); [optional] skb_reserve(skb, ...); ... skb->tail ... But even if the skb_reserve() happens, skb->data equals skb->tail. So it doesn't make any sense to use anything other than skb->data in these cases. Another case was the s2io.c driver directly mucking with the skb->data and skb->tail pointers. It really just wanted to do an skb_reserve(), so that's what the code was changed to do instead. Another reason I'm making this change as it allows some SKB cleanups I have planned simpler to merge. In those cleanups, skb->head, skb->tail, and skb->end pointers are removed, and replaced with skb->head_room and skb->tail_room integers. Signed-off-by: David S.

2005-06-268139cp: safer spin loop for get_statisticsStephen Hemminger
The spin loop in 8139cp is limited to 100 iterations when pulling hardware stats. There is no allowance for processor speed so on a fast machine, the stats may not be available that fast. Also, if the board doesn't return soon enough make sure turn the address back off to prevent later updates when memory has gone away.

2005-05-12 [PATCH] drivers/net/8139cp: Use the DMA_{64, 32}BIT_MASK constantsTobias Klauser
The previous patch did not compile cleanly on all architectures so here's a fixed one. Use the DMA_{64,32}BIT_MASK constants from dma-mapping.h when calling pci_set_dma_mask() or pci_set_consistent_dma_mask() Signed-off-by: Tobias Klauser <tklauser@nuerscht.ch> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>

2005-05-12 [PATCH] 8139cp - add netpoll supportSteffen Klassert
Patch adds netpoll support to the 8139cp driver. The patch needs some tests because I have no NIC of this type for testing. Applies against linux-2.6.9-rc2-mm3 Signed-off-by: Steffen Klassert <klassert@mathematik.tu-chemnitz.de>
2005-05-12 [PATCH] 8139cp - module_paramStephen Hemminger
Not sure if I sent this already... Convert 8139cp to use new module_param() not old MODULE_PARM Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org>
2005-05-12 [PATCH] 8139cp: SG support fixesFrancois Romieu
- suspicious length in pci_unmap_single; - wait for the last frag before freeing the relevant skb; - no need to crash when facing some unexpected csum combination.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
