2009-11-13igb: Rework how netdev->stats is handledAlexander Duyck
This patch does some refactoring work that I felt was needed after reviewing the changes recently submitted relating to the replacement of net_stats with netdev->stats. This patch essentially creates two different collections of stats. The first handles the adapter specific states and is stored in gstring_stats, and the second is for netdev specific stats and is stored in gstring_net_stats.

Changing ring sizes while the interface was down was causing a double allocation of the receive and transmit rings. This issue is amplified when there are multiple rings enabled.

2009-05-26igb: Record host memory receive overflow in net_statsJesper Dangaard Brouer
Based on previous patch from Jesper Dangaard Brouer. The RNBC (Receive No Buffers Count) register for the 82576, indicate that frames were received when there were no available buffers in host memory to store those frames (receive descriptor head and tail pointers were equal). The packet is still received by the NIC if there is space in the FIFO on the NIC. As the RNBC value is not a packet drop, the driver stores this value in net_stats.rx_fifo_errors to indicate that there were no system buffers available for the incoming packet. Actual dropped packets are counted in the MPC value. Saving the stats in dev->net_stats makes it visible via /proc/net/dev as "fifo", and thus viewable to ifconfig as "overruns" and 'netstat -i' as "RX-OVR". The Receive No Buffers Count (RNBC) can already be queried by ethtool -S as "rx_no_buffer_count".

2009-05-26igb: Implement reading of reg RQDPC (Receive Queue Drop Packet Count)Jesper Dangaard Brouer
Based on the previous patches from Jesper Dangaard Brouer <hawk@comx.dk> Implement reading the per queue drop stats register RQDPC (Receive Queue Drop Packet Count). It counts the number of packets dropped by a queue due to lack of descriptors available. Notice RQDPC (Receive Queue Drop Packet Count) stats only gets incremented, if the DROP_EN bit it set (in the SRRCTL register for that queue). If DROP_EN bit is NOT set, then the some what equivalent count is stored in RNBC (not per queue basis). The RQDPC register is only 12 bit, thus the precision might suffer due to overrun in-netween the watchdog polling interval.

2009-01-21igb: Replace LRO with GROHerbert Xu
This patch makes igb invoke the GRO hooks instead of LRO. As GRO has a compatible external interface to LRO this is a very straightforward replacement. Three things of note: 1) I've kept the LRO Kconfig option until we decide to enable GRO across the board at which point it can also be killed. 2) The poll_controller stuff is broken in igb as it tries to do the same work as the normal poll routine. Since poll_controller can be called in the middle of a poll, this can't be good. I noticed this because poll_controller can invoke the GRO hooks without flushing held GRO packets. However, this should be harmless (assuming the poll_controller bug above doesn't kill you first :) since the next ->poll will clear the backlog. The only time when we'll have a problem is if we're already executing the GRO code on the same ring, but that's no worse than what happens now. 3) I kept the ip_summed check before calling GRO so that we're on par with previous behaviour.

We have some reasons to kill netdev->priv: 1. netdev->priv is equal to netdev_priv(). 2. netdev_priv() wraps the calculation of netdev->priv's offset, obviously netdev_priv() is more flexible than netdev->priv. But we cann't kill netdev->priv, because so many drivers reference to it directly. This patch is a safe convert for netdev->priv to netdev_priv(netdev).
