2008-06-12bnx2x: Updating the MaintainerEilon Greenstein
I would like to thank Eliezer Tamir for writing and maintaining the driver for the past two years. I will take over maintaining the bnx2x driver from now on.

2008-04-09BNX2X: Correct bringing chip out of resetEliezer Tamir
Fixed bug: Wrong register was written to when bringing the chip out of reset. [ Bump driver version and release date -DaveM ] Signed-off-by: Eliezer Tamir <eliezert@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-03-23BNX2X: prevent ethtool from setting port typeEliezer Tamir
On 10GBaseT boards setting the type to TP will cause the driver to try to configure 1GBaseT. Since there are currently no boards that support setting of the port type, disable this for now. Signed-off-by: Eliezer Tamir <eliezert@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2008-02-28[BNX2X]: Fix Xmit bugsEliezer Tamir
Several endianity corrections in start_xmit() Fixed TSO bug where packets were missing the TCP flags. Signed-off-by: Eliezer Tamir <eliezert@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-02-28[BNX2X]: fix slowpath races and lockingEliezer Tamir
Fixed locking between fastpath and slowpath operations. Corrected order of traffic disabling to prevent race when going down under traffic. - first have the microcode drop all incoming packets - then do the slowpath stuff - only then reset the MAC Got rid of in_reset_task. Remove_one() and friends would deference a null pointer if init_one failed. Signed-off-by: Eliezer Tamir <eliezert@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-02-28[BNX2X]: fix HW attentions and error handlingEliezer Tamir
Some of the HW attentions, used to indicate an error were not properly acked. This will cause the driver to endlessly receive interrupts when such an error happens. Had to break the code into smaller chunks because it got too nested. Signed-off-by: Eliezer Tamir <eliezert@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-02-28[BNX2X]: fix MSI-X/INT#A errataEliezer Tamir
Errata A0.158 workaround. Running in INT#A mode after running with MSI-X fails due to a PCI core bug. Signed-off-by: Eliezer Tamir <eliezert@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-02-28[BNX2X]: correct statisticsEliezer Tamir
Errors were summed improperly, some stats were missing. Signed-off-by: Eliezer Tamir <eliezert@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-02-28[BNX2X]: Correct RX filtering and MC configurationEliezer Tamir
The configuration of RX filtering needed the following corrections: Drop flags need to be set per Rx queue. Have to tell the microcode to collect drop stats, and properly wait for them to complete when going down. Sometimes we failed to detect proper completion due to a logical error in the wait loop.

2008-02-28[BNX2X]: Correct Link managementEliezer Tamir
Properly protect PHY access between two devices on the same board with a HW lock. Use GPIO to clear all previous configurations before changing link parameters. Shut down the external PHY in case of fan failure. Reducing the MDC/MDIO clock to 2.5MHz due to problems with some devices. Resolve the flow control response according to autoneg with external PHY. Unmasking all PHY interrupts in single write to prevent a race in the interrupts order. LASI indication fixes to work with peculiarities of PHYs. Disable MAC RX to avoid a HW bug when closing the MAC under traffic. Disable parallel detection on HiGig due to HW limitation. Updating the shared memory structure to work with the current bootcode.
