Now that core network takes care of trans_start updates, dont do it
in drivers themselves, if possible. Drivers can avoid one cache miss
(on dev->trans_start) in their start_xmit() handler.
Exceptions are NETIF_F_LLTX drivers

The driver stores the PCI resource address into 'unsigned long' variable before
calling ioremap() on it. This warrants a kernel oops when the registers are
accessed on PPC 44x platforms which (being 32-bit) have PCI memory space mapped
beyond 4 GB.
The arch/ppc/ kernel has a fixup in ioremap() that creates an illusion of the
PCI memory resources are mapped below 4 GB, but arch/powerpc/ code got rid of
this trick, having instead CONFIG_RESOURCES_64BIT enabled.

the NULL dereference is here:
(gdb) list *0xffffffff804a9504
0xffffffff804a9504 is in natsemi_poll (drivers/net/natsemi.c:717).
712 return count;
713 }
714
715 static inline void __iomem *ns_ioaddr(struct net_device *dev)
716 {
717 return (void __iomem *) dev->base_addr;
718 }
719
which is this code from natsemi.c:
2227 struct net_device *dev = np->dev;
2228 void __iomem * ioaddr = ns_ioaddr(dev);
2229 int work_done = 0;
seems like the NAPI changes in -rc1 added an np->dev field but forgot to
initialize it ...
does the patch below fix the oops for you?

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.

Michael Chan, Jeff Garzik, and Jamal Hadi Salim.

This episode illustrates how an overused warning can train people to
ignore that warning, which winds up hiding bugs.
The warning
drivers/net/natsemi.c: In function ‘natsemi_remove1’:
drivers/net/natsemi.c:3222: warning: ignoring return value of
‘device_create_file’, declared with attribute warn_unused_result
is oft-ignored, even though at close inspection one notices this occurs
in the /remove/ function, not normally where creation occurs. A quick

The natsemi driver contains a workaround for broken hardware which can
partially reset the chip at unpredictable times, detected by checking for
spontaneous changes in the DspCfg register. The effects of the hardware
bug appear to be variable and can range from minor problems like small
numbers of corrupted packets to major ones such as the chip becoming
non-functional. In the case of minor problems the chip reconfiguration
required to work around the hardware can cause more problems than the bug
itself.
Since we have no way of automatically determining how badly the problem
manifests on any given system provide an option in sysfs allowing users to
disable the workaround at runtime and provides a module option to set the
default.

The interrupt status register for the natsemi chips is clear on read and
was read unconditionally from both the interrupt and from the NAPI poll
routine, meaning that if the interrupt service routine was called (for
example, due to a shared interrupt) while a NAPI poll was scheduled
interrupts could be missed. This patch fixes that by ensuring that the
interrupt status register is only read by the interrupt handler when
interrupts are enabled from the chip.
It also reverts a workaround for this problem from the netpoll hook and
improves the trace for interrupt events.

The natsemi drivers include functions for enabling and disabling
interrupts from the chip but these are not used in all code paths. This
patch changes the code paths that touch the interrupt enable register to
use the functions. In all cases this adds an extra PCI read to post the

too much of a problem.

Fix two issues in this driver's netpoll path: one usual, with spin_unlock_irq()
enabling interrupts which nobody asks it to do (that has been fixed recently in
a number of drivers) and one unusual, with poll_controller() method possibly
causing loss of interrupts due to the interrupt status register being cleared
by a simple read and the interrpupt handler simply storing it, not accumulating.

This patch provides code paths which allow the natsemi driver to use the
external MII port on the chip but ignore any PHYs that may be attached to it.
The link state will be left as it was when the driver started and can be
configured via ethtool. Any PHYs that are present can be accessed via the MII
ioctl()s.
This is useful for systems where the device is connected without a PHY
or where either information or actions outside the scope of the driver
are required in order to use the PHYs.
