2006-05-08spidernet: introduce new settingJens Osterkamp
We found a new chip setting that we need in order to make the driver work more reliable. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd.bergmann@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org>
2006-01-17[PATCH] spidernet: performance optimizationsArnd Bergmann
Performance optimizations, changes in these areas: - RX and TX checksum offload - correct maximum MTU - don't use TX interrupts anymore, use a timer instead - remove some superfluous barriers - improve RX RAM full handling From: Utz Bacher <utz.bacher@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Osterkamp <jens.osterkamp@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arndb@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
2006-01-17[PATCH] spidernet: fix HW structures for 64 bit dma_addr_tArnd Bergmann
The driver incorrectly used dma_addr_t to describe HW structures and consequently broke when that type was changed in 2.6.15-rc. This changed spidernet to use u32 for 32 bit HW defined structure elements.

2005-09-06[PATCH] net: add driver for the NIC on Cell BladesJens Osterkamp
This patch adds a driver for a new 1000 Mbit ethernet NIC. It is integrated on the south bridge that is used for our Cell Blades. The code gets the MAC address from the Open Firmware device tree, so it won't compile on platforms other than ppc64. This is the first public release, so I don't expect the first version to get merged, but I'd aim for integration within the 2.6.13 time frame.
