2008-01-30Mostly revert "e1000/e1000e: Move PCI-Express device IDs over to e1000e"Linus Torvalds
The new e1000e driver is apparently not yet suitable for general use, so mark it experimental, and re-instate all the PCI-Express device IDs in the old and stable e1000 driver so that people (namely me) can continue to use a driver that actually works. Auke & co have been appraised of the situation.

2008-01-28e1000/e1000e: Move PCI-Express device IDs over to e1000eAuke Kok
e1000e will from now on support the PCI-Express adapters that previously were supported by e1000. This support means better performance and easier debugging from now on for both the old PCI-X/PCI hardware and PCI-Express adapters. This patch also moves 3 recently merged device IDs over to e1000e that are identical to quad-port versions of already existing dual port versions. With this last bit every former e1000 pci-e device should work now with e1000e. Here is a brief list of which gigabit driver to use with which adapter: e1000: 82540 -> 82547 e1000e: 82571 -> 82573 ich8, ich9 (82562 or 82566) es2lan (80003eslan) igb: (not yet merged, only available from e1000.sf.net) 82575 Signed-off-by: Auke Kok <auke-jan.h.kok@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

2008-01-20[NET]: Fix interrupt semaphore corruption in Intel drivers.David S. Miller
Several of the Intel ethernet drivers keep an atomic counter used to manage when to actually hit the hardware with a disable or an enable. The way the net_rx_work() breakout logic works during a pending napi_disable() is that it simply unschedules the poll even if it still has work. This can potentially leave interrupts disabled, but that is OK because all of the drivers are about to disable interrupts anyways in all such code paths that do a napi_disable(). Unfortunately, this trips up the semaphore used here in the Intel drivers. If you hit this case, when you try to bring the interface back up it won't enable interrupts. A reload of the driver module fixes it of course. So what we do is make sure all the sequences now go: napi_disable(); atomic_set(&adapter->irq_sem, 0); *_irq_disable(); which makes sure the counter is always in the correct state.

This fixes a regression added by changeset 53e52c729cc169db82a6105fac7a166e10c2ec36 ("[NET]: Make ->poll() breakout consistent in Intel ethernet drivers.") As pointed out by Jesse Brandeburg, for three of the drivers edited above there is breakout logic in the *_clean_tx_irq() code to prevent running TX reclaim forever. If this occurs, we have to elide NAPI poll completion or else those TX events will never be serviced. Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-01-08[NET]: Make ->poll() breakout consistent in Intel ethernet drivers.David S. Miller
This makes the ->poll() routines of the E100, E1000, E1000E, IXGB, and IXGBE drivers complete ->poll() consistently. Now they will all break out when the amount of RX work done is less than 'budget'. At a later time, we may want put back code to include the TX work as well (as at least one other NAPI driver does, but by in large NAPI drivers do not do this). But if so, it should be done consistently across the board to all of these drivers. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Acked-by: Auke Kok <auke-jan.h.kok@intel.com>

2007-10-10[ETHTOOL] Provide default behaviors for a few ethtool sub-ioctlsJeff Garzik
For the operations get-tx-csum get-sg get-tso get-ufo the default ethtool_op_xxx behavior is fine for all drivers, so we permit op==NULL to imply the default behavior. This provides a more uniform behavior across all drivers, eliminating ethtool(8) "ioctl not supported" errors on older drivers that had not been updated for the latest sub-ioctls. The ethtool_op_xxx() functions are left exported, in case anyone wishes to call them directly from a driver-private implementation -- a not-uncommon case. Should an ethtool_op_xxx() helper remain unused for a while, except by net/core/ethtool.c, we can un-export it at a later date.

2007-10-10[NET]: Make NAPI polling independent of struct net_device objects.Stephen Hemminger
Several devices have multiple independant RX queues per net device, and some have a single interrupt doorbell for several queues. In either case, it's easier to support layouts like that if the structure representing the poll is independant from the net device itself. The signature of the ->poll() call back goes from: int foo_poll(struct net_device *dev, int *budget) to int foo_poll(struct napi_struct *napi, int budget) The caller is returned the number of RX packets processed (or the number of "NAPI credits" consumed if you want to get abstract). The callee no longer messes around bumping dev->quota, *budget, etc. because that is all handled in the caller upon return. The napi_struct is to be embedded in the device driver private data structures. Furthermore, it is the driver's responsibility to disable all NAPI instances in it's ->stop() device close handler. Since the napi_struct is privatized into the driver's private data structures, only the driver knows how to get at all of the napi_struct instances it may have per-device. With lots of help and suggestions from Rusty Russell, Roland Dreier, Michael Chan, Jeff Garzik, and Jamal Hadi Salim.

2007-07-11PCI: Change all drivers to use pci_device->revisionAuke Kok
Instead of all drivers reading pci config space to get the revision ID, they can now use the pci_device->revision member.

Some drivers even just read it for no purpose of all. In devices where the revision ID is being copied over and used in what appears to be the equivalent of hotpath, I have left the copy code and the cached copy as not to influence the driver's performance.

This restores the previously removed netif_poll_enable call in e1000_open. It's needed on all but the first call to e1000_open for a NIC as e1000_close always calls netif_poll_disable. netif_poll_enable can only be called safely if no polls have been scheduled. This should be the case as long as we don't enter our IRQ handler. In order to guarantee this we explicitly disable IRQs as early as possible when we're probing the NIC.

2007-04-25[TCP]: Introduce tcp_hdrlen() and tcp_optlen()Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
The ip_hdrlen() buddy, created to reduce the number of skb->h.th-> uses and to avoid the longer, open coded equivalent. Ditched a no-op in bnx2 in the process. I wonder if we should have a BUG_ON(skb->h.th->doff < 5) in tcp_optlen()... Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
