2006-05-10sis900: phy for FoxCon motherboardJames Cameron
661FX7MI-S motherboard which uses the SiS 661FX chipset. The patch adds an entry to mii_chip_info for the transceiver. The PHY ids were found using the sis900_c_122.diff patch from http://brownhat.org/sis900.html but that patch didn't solve the problem, because the PHY at address 1 was already being chosen. Without my patch, when bursts of packets arrive from other hosts on a LAN, the interface dropped one roughly 10% of the time, causing retransmits. There were fifth second pauses in refresh of large xterms, and it made Netrek suck. I can provide further test data. Workaround in lieu of patch is to use mii-tool to advertise 100baseTx-HD, then force renegotiation. I wasn't able to identify the actual transceiver, so the description field is a guess. This patch is similar to Artur Skawina's patch: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-netdev&m=114297516729079&w=2 I'm not sure, but I wonder if it means the default behaviour should be changed, so as to better handle future transceivers. Diff is against 2.6.16.13. Signed-off-by: James Cameron <james.cameron@hp.com> Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org>
2006-04-20[PATCH] Add VLAN (802.1q) support to sis900 driverDaniele Venzano
The attached patch adds support for VLANs to the sis900 driver and bumps the version number. It is based on an old (2003) patch for the 2.4 series by Hamid Hashemi Golpayegani. It applies on top of 2.6.16(.5). I have one report that it works and behaves as intended. Please review and consider for inclusion.

2006-03-22[PATCH] sis900 adm7001 PHY supportArtur Skawina
this patch is required to get a SIS964 based motherboard ethernet working (FSC D1875) (picking the #1 transceiver, instead of the last one, in case no known ones were found might be a better default, and would have worked in this case too) Signed-off-by: Artur Skawina <art_k@o2.pl> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

2006-02-25Fix Wake on LAN support in sis900Daniele Venzano
Fix two bugs in the WoL implementation of sis900. The first causes hangs on some system on driver load, the second causes troubles when disabling WoL support. Both fixes are one liner and really simple. Signed-off-by: Lennert Buytenhek <buytenh@wantstofly.org> Signed-off-by: Daniele Venzano <venza@brownhat.org>
2005-10-28[PATCH] Add Wake on LAN support to sis900 (2)Daniele Venzano
Sorry, but that day I had smoked somthing too heavy for me, the patch didn't apply. Here's a new one. The patch availble below adds support for Wake on LAN to the sis900 driver. Some register addresses were added to sis900.h and two new functions were implemented in sis900.c. WoL status is controlled by ethtool. Patch is against 2.6.13. Comments are welcome, but also consider for inclusion in the -mm series. Signed-off-by: Daniele Venzano <venza@brownhat.org> -- Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
2005-10-28sis900: come alive after temporary memory shortageVasily Averin
1) Forgotten counter incrementation in sis900_rx() in case it doesn't get memory for skb, that leads to whole interface failure. Problem is accompanied with messages: eth0: Memory squeeze,deferring packet. eth0: NULL pointer encountered in Rx ring, skipping 2) If counter cur_rx overflows and there'll be temporary memory problems buffer can't be recreated later, when memory IS available. 3) Limit the work in handler to prevent the endless packets processing if new packets are generated faster then handled.

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.

2005-06-26[PATCH] net/sis900: Use the DMA_32BIT_MASK constantTobias Klauser
Use the DMA_32BIT_MASK constant from dma-mapping.h when calling pci_set_dma_mask() or pci_set_consistent_dma_mask() instead of custom macros. This patch includes dma-mapping.h explicitly because it caused errors on some architectures otherwise.

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds
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!
