During some performance diagnostics I stumbled on this slightly wasteful
code in pcnet_cs.c which I made the patch included at the bottom for (two
minor comment fixes included).
Improvement:
instead of *always* calculating
lea 0x2c0(%edx),%ebx
and then additionally doing the
mov %edx,0xc0(%ebx)
addition *if we need it*,
we now do the *whole* calculation of
mov %edx,0x380(%ebx)
*only* if we need it.
This even manages to save us a whole 16-byte alignment buffer loss
in this compilation case.
Result: slightly improves IRQ handler performance in both shared and
non-shared IRQ case, which should make my rusty P3/700 a slight bit happier.
Thank you for your support,
Andreas Mohr

The spin loop in 8139cp is limited to 100 iterations when pulling hardware
stats. There is no allowance for processor speed so on a fast machine, the
stats may not be available that fast. Also, if the board doesn't return
soon enough make sure turn the address back off to prevent later updates
when memory has gone away.

Add support for alternate slave selection algorithms to bonding
balance-xor and 802.3ad modes. Default mode (what we have now: xor of
MAC addresses) is "layer2", new choice is "layer3+4", using IP and port
information for hashing to select peer.
Originally submitted by Jason Gabler for balance-xor mode;
modified by Jay Vosburgh to additionally support 802.3ad mode. Jason's
original comment is as follows:
The attached patch to the Linux Etherchannel Bonding driver modifies the
driver's "balance-xor" mode as follows:
- alternate hashing policy support for mode 2
* Added kernel parameter "xmit_policy" to allow the specification
of different hashing policies for mode 2. The original mode 2
policy is the default, now found in xmit_hash_policy_layer2().
* Added xmit_hash_policy_layer34()
This patch was inspired by hashing policies implemented by Cisco,
Foundry and IBM, which are explained in
Foundry documentation found at:

1. Establish a simple API for process freezing defined in linux/include/sched.h:
frozen(process) Check for frozen process
freezing(process) Check if a process is being frozen
freeze(process) Tell a process to freeze (go to refrigerator)
thaw_process(process) Restart process
frozen_process(process) Process is frozen now
2. Remove all references to PF_FREEZE and PF_FROZEN from all
kernel sources except sched.h
3. Fix numerous locations where try_to_freeze is manually done by a driver
4. Remove the argument that is no longer necessary from two function calls.
5. Some whitespace cleanup
6. Clear potential race in refrigerator (provides an open window of PF_FREEZE
cleared before setting PF_FROZEN, recalc_sigpending does not check
PF_FROZEN).
This patch does not address the problem of freeze_processes() violating the rule
that a task may only modify its own flags by setting PF_FREEZE. This is not clean
in an SMP environment. freeze(process) is therefore not SMP safe!

1. Move tp->irq_sync = 0 to before the interrupt mailbox IO in
tg3_enable_ints() so that the interrupt handler will always see
irq_sync == 0 when interrupts are enabled.
2. Remove the tg3_enable_ints() call in tg3_reset_hw(). Interrupts are
always enabled explicitly or through tg3_netif_start(). This is to
prevent interrupts being enabled while poll is disabled.
3. Update trans_start with jiffies in tg3_netif_stop() to prevent false
NETDEV WATCHDOG.
4. Pass in the proper irq_sync parameter to tg3_full_lock() depending on
netif_running() in some of the ethtool set calls.

Move all driver spinlocks to be taken at sw IRQ
context only.
This fixes the skb_copy() we were doing with hw
IRQs disabled (which is illegal and triggers a
BUG() with HIGHMEM enabled). It also simplifies
the locking all over the driver tremendously.
We accomplish this feat by creating a special
sequence to synchronize with the hw IRQ handler
using a binary state and synchronize_irq().
This idea is from Herbert Xu.
Thanks to Michael Chan for helping to track down
all of the race conditions in initial versions
of this code.

There must be a rmb() between reading the status block tag
and calling tg3_has_work(). This was missing in tg3_mis()
and tg3_interrupt_tagged(). tg3_poll() got it right.
Also, SD_STATUS_UPDATED must be cleared in the status block
right before we call tg3_has_work(). Only tg3_poll() got this
wrong.
Based upon patches and commentary from Grant Grundler and
Michael Chan.

We can avoid assignments to the local variable 'tmp' and
actually get rid of tmp alltogether in sl_free_bufs(). This patch does
that. This is safe since both kfree() and slhc_free() handles NULL

My patch from a few weeks back (now in mainline), called "Cleanup skbs to
prevent unregister_netdevice() hanging", can cause our TX timeout code to
fire on machines with lots of VLANs (because it takes > 2 seconds between
when we stop the queues and when we're finished stopping the connections).
When that happens the TX timeout code freaks out and does a WARN_ON()
because as far as it's concerned there shouldn't be a TX timeout happening,
which is fair enough.
I have a "proper" fix for this, which is to a) do refcounting on
connections and b) implement a proper ack timer so we don't keep unacked
skbs lying around for ever. But for 2.6.12 I propose just supressing the
WARN_ON(). Users will still see the "NETDEV WATCHDOG" warning, but that's
not nearly as bad as a WARN_ON() which users interpret as an Oops.

On some 5701 devices with older bootcode, the LED configuration bits in
SRAM may be invalid with value zero. The fix is to check for invalid
bits (0) and default to PHY 1 mode. Incorrect LED mode will lead to
error in programming the PHY.
Thanks to Grant Grundler for debugging the problem.
>From Grant:
| In May, 2004, tg3 v3.4 changed how MAC_LED_CTRL (0x40c) was getting
| programmed and how to determine what to program into LED_CTRL. The new
| code trusted NIC_SRAM_DATA_CFG (0x00000b58) to indicate what to write
| to LED_CTRL and MII EXT_CTRL registers. On "IOX Core Lan", SRAM was
| saying MODE_MAC (0x0) and that doesn't work.
