2006-09-27[PATCH] sky2: fragmented receive for large MTUStephen Hemminger
Use hardware support for chained receive to break up large frames into multiple pages. This avoids having to do a mult-page allocation that can fail on a busy system due to fragmented memory. For normal size MTU, this code behaves the same. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
2006-09-27[PATCH] sky2: use netif_tx_lock instead of LLTXStephen Hemminger
Use the netdevice transmit lock via netif_tx_lock rather than putting lock in device specific code and using lockless transmit. The code is cleaner using netif_tx_lock, and the performance is same. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
2006-09-27[PATCH] sky2: incremental transmit completionStephen Hemminger
Since a transmit can take several control blocks, the old code waited until the last control block was marked as done. This code processes the return values incrementally. This makes slots in the tx ring available and less chance of getting stuck. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
2006-09-27[PATCH] sky2: use standard pci register capabilties for error registerStephen Hemminger
Use the standard pci capability mechanism to access PCI express error registers, rather than hard coding the offset. Mask off the PCI express error from ever occuring on non-PCI express systems. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
2006-09-13[PATCH] sky2: big endianStephen Hemminger
Fix support for big endian platforms like PPC. Still not sure about VLAN acceleration (does it need swapping)? Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
2006-09-13[PATCH] sky2: fiber supportStephen Hemminger
Fix the support for fiber connected gigabit boards. Allow half duplex gigabit to be configured. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
2006-09-13[PATCH] sky2: tx pause bug fixStephen Hemminger
Fix problems with transmit pause frames. The driver was telling the GMAC to flush (not process) pause frames. Manually disabling pause wasn't working because of problems in the setup. This maybe the cause of the lockup under load. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6839 Patch against netdev-2.6 git tree Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
2006-08-29[PATCH] sky2: optimize checksum offload informationshemminger@osdl.org
Since many packets have the same checksum starting offset and insertion location; the driver can save the last information and only tell hardware when it changes. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
2006-08-29[PATCH] sky2: dont use force status bitshemminger@osdl.org
Don't use force status bit. It was never implemented on all chips, or has no impact. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
2006-07-12[PATCH] sky2: fix truncated collision threshold maskStephen Hemminger

2006-05-08Add more support for the Yukon Ultra chip found in dual core centino laptops.Stephen Hemminger
The newest Yukon Ultra chipset's require more special tweaks. They seem to be like the Yukon XL chipsets. This code is transliterated from the latest SysKonnect driver; I don't have any Ultra hardware.

2006-04-12[PATCH] sky2: bad memory reference on dual port cardsStephen Hemminger
Sky2 driver will oops referencing bad memory if used on a dual port card. The problem is accessing past end of MIB counter space. Applies for both 2.6.17 and 2.6.16 (with fuzz) Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

2006-03-21[PATCH] sky2: handle all error irqsStephen Hemminger
The hardware has additional error trap interrupt bits. I have never seen them trigger, but if they do, it looks like this might be useful. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.rog> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

2006-03-21[PATCH] sky2: rework of NAPI and IRQ managementStephen Hemminger
Redo the interupt handling of sky2 driver based on the IRQ mangement documentation. All interrupts are handled by the device0 NAPI poll routine. Don't need to adjust interrupt mask in IRQ context, done only when changing device under RTNL. Therefore don't need hwlock anymore.

2006-03-21[PATCH] sky2: drop broken wake on lan supportStephen Hemminger
Remove wake on lan support for now. It doesn't work right, and I don't have a machine with working suspend/resume to test or fix it. It will be re-enabled later. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
2006-03-21[PATCH] sky2: remove support for untested Yukon EC/rev 0Stephen Hemminger
The Yukon EC/rev0 (A1) chipset requires a bunch of workarounds. I copied these from sk98lin. But since they never got tested and add more cruft to the code; any attempt at using driver as is on this version will probably fail. It looks like this was a early engineering sample chip revision, if it ever shows up on a real system. Produce an error message.

2006-02-28[PATCH] sky2: remove MSI supportStephen Hemminger
Remove Message Signaled Interrupt support (for 2.6.16). MSI is inherently edge-triggered and that is incompatiable (without more work) with NAPI. In future, will replace with smarter lockless-IRQ handling like tg3.c Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
2006-02-23[PATCH] sky2: close race on IRQ mask update.Stephen Hemminger
Need to avoid race in updating IRQ mask. This can probably be replaced smarter use of the interrupt control registers (if/when chipset docs are available). Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org>
2006-02-23[PATCH] sky2: use device iomem to access PCI configStephen Hemminger
To avoid problems with PCI config access without ACPI (or busted ACPI tables), use the device's window into PCI config space. I know this probably will upset the purists, but I would rather have users than ACPI testers. It also generates less code. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org>
2006-02-23[PATCH] sky2: yukon-ec-u chipset initializationStephen Hemminger

2006-02-07[PATCH] sky2: pci config space checkingStephen Hemminger
There were bugs in mmconfig access to PCI space, up to and include 2.6.16-rc1. These prevented the sky2 driver from being able to clear PCI express errors. This patch makes the driver check (during probe), for errors in PCI config access and fail. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
2005-12-12[PATCH] sky2: tx/rx ring data structure splitStephen Hemminger
Split Tx and Rx ring into two different data structures. Tx needs the next value (to handle partial status), and Rx always needs the mapaddr (to handle resubmitting same buffer). Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>

2005-09-21[PATCH] sky2: fix FIFO DMA alignment problemsStephen Hemminger
The Yukon2 chip FIFO has a problem recovering from a pause frame if the receive buffer is not aligned. The workaround is to just leave receive buffer at original alignment, which will make IP header unaligned. Rework receive logic for clarity. Need to ignore receive overrun interrupts (or mac hangs). These fixes make the sky2 driver generally usable. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
2005-09-16[PATCH] sky2: driver update.Stephen Hemminger
Here is revised patch against netdev sky2 branch. It includes whitespace fixes, all the changes from the previous review as well as some optimizations and timing fixes to solve some of the hangs. The stall problem is better but not perfect. It appears that under stress the chip can't keep up with the bus and sends a pause frame, then hangs. This version is for testing, and hopefully other eyes might see the root cause of the problem. I don't want to reinvent the ugly watchdog code in the syskonnect version of sk98lin. If you read it you will see, the original driver writer and the hardware developer obviously didn't understand each other. Dual port support is included, but not tested yet. It did require small change to NAPI since both ports share same IRQ. Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
2005-08-17[PATCH] sky2: new experimental Marvell Yukon2 driverStephen Hemminger
New driver for the Marvell Yukon2 Gigabit Ethernet chipset. This driver is based on the skge driver, but using the logic from the SysKonnect version of the sk98lin driver. It should support all the Yukon2 chipsets that are available in many current Intel and AMD motherboards. The driver does support ethtool, tx and rx checksum, and tcp segmentation offload. But it has only been tested for a short while and is known to stop receiving under heavy load. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
