2009-09-02drivers: Kill now superfluous ->last_rx storesEric Dumazet
The generic packet receive code takes care of setting netdev->last_rx when necessary, for the sake of the bonding ARP monitor. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Acked-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@txudriver.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2009-08-05vxge: prefetch skb->dataBenjamin LaHaise
This patch implements prefetching of skb->data from a copy of the pointer in the descriptor (which is already in the L1 cache at this point). This improves netperf rx performance (netperf -L 0,0 -c -H 192.168.254.2 -- -M 131072 -m 131072) by 4.9% on a P4 Xeon host.

2009-08-05vxge: prefetch RxD descriptorsBenjamin LaHaise
This patch prefetches RxD descriptors which helps to lower the latency of a cache miss in vxge_hw_ring_rxd_next_completed. This lowers the % of CPU time used by vxge_hw_ring_rxd_next_completed() where the descriptor is accessed in profiling netperf on a P4 Xeon from 1.5% to 1.0%.

2009-08-05vxge: improve tx performance by using mmiowb() instead of wmb()Benjamin LaHaise
wmb() is extremely heavy on x86. The semantics required in the driver are provided by mmiowb(), so use that and improve tx performance on P4 Xeons by 5-10%.

2009-08-05vxge: fix pktgen hangs (don't abuse skb->cb[])Benjamin LaHaise
This patch fixes a case in the transmit completion code which was resulting in pktgen hanging at the end of a run. The cause is due to the fact that the ->cb[] area of an skb cannot be used in a network driver's transmit path, as that area belongs to the network protocol. Pktgen hangs, as it sends out the same packet multiple times, and vxge's use of this area of the skb for a temporary list can only add the packet to the temporary list once (while it may be on the queue many times). The fix is to remove this abuse of skb->cb[]. Instead, skb pointers are placed into a temporary stack array, and then free outside of the tx lock. This retains the smp optimization of doing dev_kfree_skb() outside of the tx lock.

2009-08-05vxge: don't drop frame on tx queue fullBenjamin LaHaise
The vxge driver will drop a packet in its transmit function if the number of TxDs available hits 0. Instead of doing that, simply stop the transmit queue when transmitting a packet with the last available TxD.

2009-07-05vxge: Disable fcs stripping.Sreenivasa Honnur
- Disable fcs stripping. The minimum frame size that can be received by the hardware is 57 Bytes. A 64 Byte Ethernet frame with the vlan tag and fcs stripped will result in a 56 Byte frame which will lock up the receive engine. The work around is to disable fcs stripping in the hardware which is done with a firmware upgrade. The fixes are - 1. Ensure that the correct firmware version is used. 2. Decrement the indicated packet length of the receive packet by 4 bytes (FCS length).
