2006-10-18[TG3]: Fix set ring params tx ring size implementationRanjit Manomohan
Fixes the implementation of the ethtool set ring parameters for the tg3 transmit ring. The size of tx_pending is taken into account before doing a netif_wake_queue. This prevents the interface from locking up when smaller transmit ring sizes are used.

2006-10-17sky2: GMAC pause frameStephen Hemminger
This reverts earlier change that attempted to fix flow control. Device needs to discard pause frames, otherwise it hangs after a while. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org>
2006-10-17sky2: accept multicast pause framesStephen Hemminger
When using flow control, the PHY needs to accept multicast pause frames. Without this fix, these frames were getting discarded by the PHY before doing any flow control. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org>

2006-10-17sky2: no message on rx fifo overflowStephen Hemminger
Under high load it is possible to make the receiver FIFO get overloaded. The driver/hardware recover properly, so there is no reason to fill the log with lots of extra messages, just update counter. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org>
2006-10-17sky2: flow control setting fixesStephen Hemminger
The result of flow control negotiation should not limit the next negotiatition. If board is plugged into an old half duplex 10Mbit port, without pause, then replugged into a gigabit port, it should negotiate what is desired, not inherit that last negotiation.

2006-10-11[PATCH] sky2: set lower pause threshold to prevent overrunStephen Hemminger

2006-10-11[PATCH] sky2: revert pci express extensionsStephen Hemminger
The pci express error handling extensions don't work unless PCI access is via mmconfig. Otherwise, all accesses to pci config registers greater than 256 fail. Since the sky2 driver has other ways of getting to PCI config space, it works around this short coming, but the pci_find_ext_capablity doesn't work. This backs out commit 91aeb3edbcf4e6ed72d138ac8c22fd68e6d717c3 Go back to hardcoding, since we know where the error registers are anyway.

2006-10-11[PATCH] powerpc/cell spidernet reduce DMA kickingLinas Vepstas
The current code attempts to start the TX dma every time a packet is queued. This is too conservative, and wastes CPU time.

2006-10-11[PATCH] powerpc/cell spidernet refine lockingLinas Vepstas
The transmit side of the spider ethernet driver currently places locks around some very large chunks of code. This results in a fair amount of lock contention is some cases. This patch makes the locks much more fine-grained, protecting only the cirtical sections. One lock is used to protect three locations: the queue head and tail pointers, and the queue low-watermark location.

2006-10-11[PATCH] powerpc/cell spidernet low watermark patch.Linas Vepstas
Implement basic low-watermark support for the transmit queue. Hardware low-watermarks allow a properly configured kernel to continously stream data to a device and not have to handle any interrupts at all in doing so. Correct zero-interrupt operation can be actually observed for this driver, when the socket buffer is made large enough. The basic idea of a low-watermark interrupt is as follows. The device driver queues up a bunch of packets for the hardware to transmit, and then kicks the hardware to get it started. As the hardware drains the queue of pending, untransmitted packets, the device driver will want to know when the queue is almost empty, so that it can queue some more packets. If the queue drains down to the low waterark, then an interrupt will be generated. However, if the kernel/driver continues to add enough packets to keep the queue partially filled, no interrupt will actually be generated, and the hardware can continue streaming packets indefinitely in this mode. The impelmentation is done by setting the DESCR_TXDESFLG flag in one of the packets. When the hardware sees this flag, it will interrupt the device driver. Because this flag is on a fixed packet, rather than at fixed location in the queue, the code below needs to move the flag as more packets are queued up. This implementation attempts to keep the flag at about 1/4 from "empty".
