Michel Lespinasse 942527634e drivers/net: fix build warnings with CONFIG_PM_SLEEP disabled
This fixes a couple of build warnings when CONFIG_PM is enabled but
CONFIG_PM_SLEEP is disabled. Applies on top of v2.6.38-rc7 - I know it's
late, but it would be great if v2.6.38 could compile without warnings!

Ivan Vecera 0d672e9f8a drivers/net: Call netif_carrier_off at the end of the probe
Without calling of netif_carrier_off at the end of the probe the operstate
is unknown when the device is initially opened. By default the carrier is
on so when the device is opened and netif_carrier_on is called the link
watch event is not fired and operstate remains zero (unknown).

This patch fixes this behavior in forcedeth and r8169.

Rafael J. Wysocki dba5a68ae1 forcedeth: Do not use legacy PCI power management
The forcedeth driver uses the legacy PCI power management, so it has
to do PCI-specific things in its ->suspend() and ->resume() callbacks
and some of them are not done correctly.

Convert forcedeth to the new PCI power management framework and make
it let the PCI subsystem take care of all the PCI-specific aspects of
device handling during system power transitions.

Tested with nVidia Corporation MCP55 Ethernet (rev a2).

Jesse Gross eab6d18d20 vlan: Don't check for vlan group before vlan_tx_tag_present.
Many (but not all) drivers check to see whether there is a vlan
group configured before using a tag stored in the skb.  There's
not much point in this check since it just throws away data that
should only be present in the expected circumstances.  However,
it will soon be legal and expected to get a vlan tag when no
vlan group is configured, so remove this check from all drivers
to avoid dropping the tags.

The macros for the values of the bit field describing the four
different versions of statistics supported by different hardware
variants were being misused.  Where the code was trying to test if the
hardware implements V3, it was actually testing whether it implements
any of V1, V2, or V3, causing the driver to report statistics that
don't really exist in the hardware, with bogus values.

David S. Miller 0a12761bcd forcedeth: Kill NAPI config options.
All distributions enable it, therefore no significant body of users
are even testing the driver with it disabled.  And making NAPI
configurable is heavily discouraged anyways.

I left the MSI-X interrupt enabling thing in an "#if 0" block
so hopefully someone can debug that and it can get re-enabled.
Probably it was just one of the NVIDIA chipset MSI erratas that
we work handle these days in the PCI quirks (see drivers/pci/quirks.c
and stuff like nvenet_msi_disable()).

Tejun Heo 5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

pci_map_page() should be paired with pci_unmap_page()

forcedeth xmit path uses pci_map_single() & pci_map_page(),
but tx completion path only uses pci_unmap_single()

nv_loopback_test() uses pci_map_single() & pci_unmap_page()

Add a dma_single field in struct nv_skb_map, and
define a helper function nv_unmap_txskb

Ayaz Abdulla 3c2e1c11d9 forcedeth: remove device id macros
This patch removes the device id macros and instead uses the constants
directly.

The areas in which logic expressions where using the macros now instead
use feature/workaround flags.

No new functionality has been introduced in this patch, only clean up of
flags and macros.

Ed Swierk 5a9a8e32eb forcedeth: add phy_power_down parameter, leave phy powered up by default (v2)
Add a phy_power_down parameter to forcedeth: set to 1 to power down the
phy and disable the link when an interface goes down; set to 0 to always
leave the phy powered up.

The phy power state persists across reboots; Windows, some BIOSes, and
older versions of Linux don't bother to power up the phy again, forcing
users to remove all power to get the interface working (see
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13072).  Leaving the phy
powered on is the safest default behavior.  Users accustomed to seeing
the link state reflect the interface state and/or wanting to minimize
power consumption can set phy_power_down=1 if compatibility with other
OSes is not an issue.

Ayaz Abdulla 88d7d8b00c forcedeth: add clock gating feature <resend>
This patch adds new logic to support a clock gating feature found on the
latest set of chipsets. The clock gating is performed on the tx/rx
engines when the link is disconnected. Clock gating helps in reducing
power consumption.

* modified based on comments from netdev

Ayaz Abdulla 8f955d7f04 forcedeth: tx timeout fix
This patch fixes the tx_timeout() to properly handle the clean up of the
tx ring. It also sets the tx put pointer back to the correct position to
be in sync with HW.
