Marcus Sundberg 77332894c2 r8169: avoid thrashing PCI conf space above RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_06
The magic write to register 0x82 will often cause PCI config space on
my 8168 (PCI ID 10ec:8168, revision 2. mounted in an LG P300 laptop)
to be filled with ones during driver load, and thus breaking NIC
operation until reboot. If it does not happen on first driver load it
can easily be reproduced by unloading and loading the driver a few
times.

The magic write was added long ago by this commit:

     [netdrvr r8169] Merge of changes done by Realtek to rtl8169_init_one():
     - phy capability settings allows lower or equal capability as suggested
       in Realtek's changes;
     - I/O voodoo;
     - no need to s/mdio_write/RTL8169_WRITE_GMII_REG/;
     - s/rtl8169_hw_PHY_config/rtl8169_hw_phy_config/;
     - rtl8169_hw_phy_config(): ad-hoc struct "phy_magic" to limit duplication
       of code (yep, the u16 -> int conversions should work as expected);
     - variable renames and whitepace changes ignored.

As the 8168 wasn't supported by that version this patch simply removes
the bogus write from mac versions <= RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_06.

David S. Miller d1d08d1265 [NET]: Fix drivers to handle napi_disable() disabling interrupts.
When we add the generic napi_disable_pending() breakout
logic to net_rx_action() it means that napi_disable()
can cause NAPI poll interrupt events to be disabled.

And this is exactly what we want.  If a napi_disable()
is pending, and we are looping in the ->poll(), we want
->poll() event interrupts to stay disabled and we want
to complete the NAPI poll ASAP.

When ->poll() break out during device down was being handled on a
per-driver basis, often these drivers would turn interrupts back on
when '!netif_running()' was detected.

And this would just cause a reschedule of the NAPI ->poll() in the
interrupt handler before the napi_disable() could get in there and
grab the NAPI_STATE_SCHED bit.

The vast majority of drivers don't care if napi_disable() might have
the side effect of disabling NAPI ->poll() event interrupts.  In all
such cases, when a napi_disable() is performed, the driver just
disabled interrupts or is about to.

However there were three exceptions to this in PCNET32, R8169, and
SKY2.  To fix those cases, at the subsequent napi_enable() points, I
added code to ensure that the ->poll() interrupt events are enabled in
the hardware.

Jeff Garzik 88d3aafdae [ETHTOOL] Provide default behaviors for a few ethtool sub-ioctls
For the operations
	get-tx-csum
	get-sg
	get-tso
	get-ufo
the default ethtool_op_xxx behavior is fine for all drivers, so we
permit op==NULL to imply the default behavior.

This provides a more uniform behavior across all drivers, eliminating
ethtool(8) "ioctl not supported" errors on older drivers that had
not been updated for the latest sub-ioctls.

The ethtool_op_xxx() functions are left exported, in case anyone
wishes to call them directly from a driver-private implementation --
a not-uncommon case.  Should an ethtool_op_xxx() helper remain unused
for a while, except by net/core/ethtool.c, we can un-export it at a
later date.

Stephen Hemminger bea3348eef [NET]: Make NAPI polling independent of struct net_device objects.
Several devices have multiple independant RX queues per net
device, and some have a single interrupt doorbell for several
queues.

In either case, it's easier to support layouts like that if the
structure representing the poll is independant from the net
device itself.

The signature of the ->poll() call back goes from:

	int foo_poll(struct net_device *dev, int *budget)

to

	int foo_poll(struct napi_struct *napi, int budget)

The caller is returned the number of RX packets processed (or
the number of "NAPI credits" consumed if you want to get
abstract).  The callee no longer messes around bumping
dev->quota, *budget, etc. because that is all handled in the
caller upon return.

The napi_struct is to be embedded in the device driver private data
structures.

Furthermore, it is the driver's responsibility to disable all NAPI
instances in it's ->stop() device close handler.  Since the
napi_struct is privatized into the driver's private data structures,
only the driver knows how to get at all of the napi_struct instances
it may have per-device.

With lots of help and suggestions from Rusty Russell, Roland Dreier,
Michael Chan, Jeff Garzik, and Jamal Hadi Salim.

Bug fixes from Thomas Graf, Roland Dreier, Peter Zijlstra,
Joseph Fannin, Scott Wood, Hans J. Koch, and Michael Chan.

Francois Romieu d78ae2dcc2 r8169: workaround against ignored TxPoll writes (8168)
The 8168 ignores the requests to fetch the Tx descriptors when
the relevant TxPoll bit is already set. It easily kills the
performances of the 8168. David Gundersen has noticed that it
is enough to wait for the completion of the DMA transfer (NPQ
bit is cleared) before writing the TxPoll register again.

The extra IO traffic added by the proposed workaround could be
minimalized but it is not a high-priority task.

Francois Romieu 864022344c r8169: confusion between hardware and IP header alignment
The rx copybreak part is straightforward.

The align field in struct rtl_cfg_info is related to the alignment
requirements of the DMA operation. Its value is set at 2 to limit the
scale of possible regression but my old v1.21 8169 datasheet claims a
8 bytes requirements (which never appeared in the driver, of course)
and the 8101/8168 go with a plain 8 bytes alignment.

Says Francois:

  "Go revert it.

   It would probably be enough to remove the call to

David Howells 7d12e780e0 IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlers
Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
Linux kernel.

The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
space and code to pass it around.  On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
(ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).

Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
something different with the variable.  On FRV, for instance, the address is
maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
handling.

Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
through up to twenty or so layers of functions.  Consider a USB character
device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller.  A character
device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.

I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386.  I've runtested the
main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
with minimal configurations.

This will affect all archs.  Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:

	struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);

And put the old one back at the end:

	set_irq_regs(old_regs);

Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().

In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:

	-	update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
	-	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
	+	update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
	+	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);

I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().

Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:

 (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely.  The regs pointer is no longer stored in
     the input_dev struct.

 (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking.  It does
     something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
     pointer or not.

 (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
     irq_handler_t.

Patrick McHardy 84fa7933a3 [NET]: Replace CHECKSUM_HW by CHECKSUM_PARTIAL/CHECKSUM_COMPLETE
Replace CHECKSUM_HW by CHECKSUM_PARTIAL (for outgoing packets, whose
checksum still needs to be completed) and CHECKSUM_COMPLETE (for
incoming packets, device supplied full checksum).

Patch originally from Herbert Xu, updated by myself for 2.6.18-rc3.

Francois Romieu b39fe41f48 r8169: quirk for the 8110sb on arm platform
Inverting the write ordering of the TxDescAddr{High/Low} registers
suffices to trigger a sabbat of PCI errors which make the device
completely dysfunctional. The issue has not been reported on a
different platform.

Switching from MMIO accesses to I/O ones as done in Realtek's
own driver fixes (papers over ?) the bug as well but I am not
thrilled to see everyone pay the I/O price for an obscure bug.

This is the minimal change to handle the issue.
