2011-09-19igb: streamline Rx buffer allocation and cleanupAlexander Duyck
This change is meant to streamline the Rx buffer allocation and cleanup. This is accomplished by reducing the number of writes by only having the Rx descriptor ring written by software during allocation, and it will only be read during cleanup.

2011-09-19igb: drop support for single buffer modeAlexander Duyck
This change removes support for single buffer mode from igb and makes the driver function in packet split always. The advantage to doing this is that we can reduce total memory allocation overhead significantly as we will only need to allocate one 1K slab per packet and then make use of a reusable half page instead of allocating a 2K slab per packet.

2011-09-19igb: Update max_frame_size to account for an optional VLAN tag if presentAlexander Duyck
This patch modifies the max_frame_size in order account for an optional VLAN tag. In order to support this we must also increase the MAX_STD_JUMBO_FRAME_SIZE to account for the 4 extra bytes.

2011-09-19igb: Update RXDCTL/TXDCTL configurationsAlexander Duyck
This change cleans up the RXDCTL and TXDCTL configurations and optimizes RX performance by allowing back write-backs on all hardware other than 82576.

2011-08-17net: introduce IFF_UNICAST_FLT private flagJiri Pirko
Use IFF_UNICAST_FTL to find out if driver handles unicast address filtering. In case it does not, promisc mode is entered. Patch also fixes following drivers: stmmac, niu: support uc filtering and yet it propagated ndo_set_multicast_list bna, benet, pxa168_eth, ks8851, ks8851_mll, ksz884x : has set ndo_set_rx_mode but do not support uc filtering Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko <jpirko@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
