2009-09-17be2net: fix some cmds to use mccq instead of mboxSathya Perla
All cmds issued to BE after the creation of mccq must now use the mcc-q (and not mbox) to avoid a hw issue that results in mbox poll timeout. Signed-off-by: Sathya Perla <sathyap@serverengines.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-09-07be2net: Changes to support flashing of the be2 network adapterAjit Khaparde
Changes to support flashing of the be2 network adapter using the request_firmware() & ethtool infrastructure. The trigger to flash the device will come from ethtool utility. The driver will invoke request_firmware() to start the flash process. The file containing the flash image is expected to be available in /lib/firmware/ Signed-off-by: Ajit Khaparde <ajitk@serverengines.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-09-02netdev: drivers should make ethtool_ops constStephen Hemminger
No need to put ethtool_ops in data, they should be const. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-08-01be2net: remove pci_func field from be_adapter structSathya Perla
pci function is available as PCI_FUNC(pdev->devfn); no need for a separate field. Signed-off-by: Sathya Perla <sathyap@serverengines.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-08-01be2net: get rid of be_ctrl_info struct/abstractionSathya Perla
Currently only the be_ctrl_info struct ptr (instead of adapter) is passed to all the routines in be_cmds.c. Instead pass be_adapter ptr to allow access to all its fields. Merge the contents of struct be_ctrl_info into be_adapter. The resulting code is simpler. Signed-off-by: Sathya Perla <sathyap@serverengines.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-07-23be2net: Add GRO support to the be2net driver. LRO is not supported anymore.Ajit Khaparde
This patch removes support for INET_LRO and switches over to GRO. Signed-off-by: Ajit Khaparde <ajitk@serverengines.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-06-28be2net: Fix to avoid a crash seen on PPC with LRO and Jumbo frames.Ajit Khaparde
While testing the driver on PPC, we ran into a crash with LRO, Jumbo frames. With CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES configured (a default in PPC), MAX_SKB_FRAGS drops to 3 and we were crossing the array limits on skb_shinfo(skb)->frags[]. Now we coalesce the frags from the same physical page into one slot in skb_shinfo(skb)->frags[] and go to the next index when the frag is from different physical page. This patch is against the net-2.6 tree. Signed-off-by: Ajit Khaparde <ajitk@serverengines.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-06-19be2net: receive asynchronous link status notifications from BESathya Perla
Rcv and process ansync link status notifications from BE instead of polling for link status in the be_worker thread. Signed-off-by: Sathya Perla <sathyap@serverengines.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-06-19be2net: cleanup multicast_set cmd to avoid mc_list copySathya Perla
Cleanup multicast_set method to avoid an extra copy of mc_list and unwanted promiscuos sets to BE. Signed-off-by: Sathya Perla <sathyap@serverengines.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-06-19be2net: Add MCC queue mechanism for BE cmdsSathya Perla
Currenlty all cmds use the blocking MCC mbox to post cmds. An mbox cmd is protected via a spin_lock(cmd_lock) and not spin_lock_bh() as it is undesirable to disable BHs while a blocking mbox cmd is in progress (and take long to finish.) This can lockup a cmd in progress in process context. Instead cmds that may be called in BH context must use the MCC queue to post cmds. The cmd completions are rcvd in a separate completion queue and the events are placed in the tx-event queue. Signed-off-by: Sathya Perla <sathyap@serverengines.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2009-03-24be2net: cleanup rx/tx rate calculationsSathya Perla
Hi, Pls accept this patch to cleanup rx/tx rate calculations as follows: - check for jiffies wraparound - remove typecast of a denominator - do rate calculation only in workqueue context periodically Signed-off-by: Sathya Perla <sathyap@serverengines.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

This is a patch to replenish the rx-queue when it is in a starved state (due to out-of-mem conditions) Signed-off-by: Sathya Perla <sathyap@serverengines.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
