2010-09-30e1000e: use hardware writeback batchingJesse Brandeburg
Most e1000e parts support batching writebacks. The problem with this is that when some of the TADV or TIDV timers are not set, Tx can sit forever. This is solved in this patch with write flushes using the Flush Partial Descriptors (FPD) bit in TIDV and RDTR. This improves bus utilization and removes partial writes on e1000e, particularly from 82571 parts in S5500 chipset based machines. Only ES2LAN and 82571/2 parts are included in this optimization, to reduce testing load.

2010-05-05e1000/e1000e: implement a simple interrupt moderationJesse Brandeburg
Back before e1000-7.3.20, the e1000 driver had a simple algorithm that managed interrupt moderation. The driver was updated in 7.3.20 to have the new "adaptive" interrupt moderation but we have customer requests to redeploy the old way as an option. This patch adds the old functionality back. The new functionality can be enabled via module parameter or at runtime via ethtool. Module parameter: (InterruptThrottleRate=4) to use this new moderation method.

2008-10-01e1000e: write protect ICHx NVM to prevent malicious write/eraseBruce Allan
Set the hardware to ignore all write/erase cycles to the GbE region in the ICHx NVM. This feature can be disabled by the WriteProtectNVM module parameter (enabled by default) only after a hardware reset, but the machine must be power cycled before trying to enable writes.

2008-01-28e1000e: Disable L1 ASPM power savings for 82573 mobile variantsAuke Kok
L1 ASPM link (pci-e link power savings) has significant benefits (~1W savings when link is active) but unfortunately does not work correctly on any of the chipsets that have 82573 on mobile platforms which causes various nuisances: - eeprom reads return garbage information leading to bad eeprom checksums - long ping times (up to 2 seconds) - complete system hangs (freeze/lockup) A lot of T60 owners have been plagued by this, but other mobile solutions also suffer from these symptoms. Disabling L1 ASPM before we activate the PCI-E link fixes all of these issues at the cost of some power consumption. Remove a workaround RDTR adjustment that is no longer needed with this new one.

2007-10-10[E1000E]: New pci-express e1000 driver (currently for ICH9 devices only)Auke Kok
This driver implements support for the ICH9 on-board LAN ethernet device. The device is similar to ICH8. The driver encompasses code to support 82571/2/3, es2lan and ICH8 devices as well, but those device IDs are disabled and will be "lifted" from the e1000 driver over one at a time once this driver receives some more live time. Changes to the last snapshot posted are exclusively in the internal hardware API organization. Many thanks to Jeff Garzik for jumping in and getting this organized with a keen eye on the future layout.
