2010-02-03e1000: Report link status in ethtool when interface is downNick Nunley
With this change ethtool will correctly report link status when the interface is down. Currently ethtool reports the link as not detected when the interface is down.

2010-02-03ixgbe: only process one ixgbe_watchdog_task at a time.John Fastabend
Processing multiple ixgbe_watchdog_task calls may cause the link_up variable and IXGBE_FLAG_NEED_LINK_UPDATE flag to be set incorrectly. In the worse case this is causing the netif_carrier_off to be called inappropriately which results in an interface that can't be brought up. Although schedule_work() will only schedule the task if it is not already on the work queue the WORK_STRUCT_PENDING bits are cleared just before calling the work function. This allows WORK_STRUCT_PENDING to be cleared, the work function to start and meanwhile schedule another task. This patch adds a mutex to the watchdog task. This bug is actualized by changing DCB settings or doing extended cable pull or reset tests.

2010-02-03ixgbe: Fix return of invalid txqKrishna Kumar
a developer had complained of getting lots of warnings: "eth16 selects TX queue 98, but real number of TX queues is 64" http://www.mail-archive.com/e1000-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/msg02200.html As there was no follow up on that bug, I am submitting this patch assuming that the other return points will not return invalid txq's, and also that this fixes the bug (not tested).

2010-02-03ixgbe: Fix ixgbe_tx_map error pathAnton Blanchard
Commit e5a43549f7a58509a91b299a51337d386697b92c (ixgbe: remove skb_dma_map/unmap calls from driver) looks to have introduced a bug in ixgbe_tx_map. If we get an error from a PCI DMA call, we loop backwards through count until it becomes -1 and return that. The caller of ixgbe_tx_map expects 0 on error, so return that instead.

SFC9000-family boards do not all use MDIO PHYs, so we need a different test for PHY aliveness. Introduce a PHY operation test_alive(). For PHYs attached to Falcon, use a common implementation based on the existing PHY MDIO test. For PHYs managed through MCDI, use the appropriate MCDI request. Change test name in ethtool from 'core mdio' to 'phy alive'. Rename test_results::mdio to phy_alive and test_results::phy to phy_ext.

2010-02-03b43: Fix throughput regressionLarry Finger
Commit c7ab5ef9bcd281135c21b4732c9be779585181be entitled "b43: implement short slot and basic rate handling" reduced the transmit throughput for my BCM4311 device from 18 Mb/s to 0.7 Mb/s. The basic rate handling portion is OK, the problem is in the short slot handling. Prior to this change, the short slot enable/disable routines were never called. Experimentation showed that the critical part was changing the value at offset 0x0010 in the shared memory. This is supposed to contain the 802.11 Slot Time in usec, but if it is changed from its initial value of zero, performance is destroyed. On the other hand, changing the value in the MMIO register corresponding to the Interframe Slot Time increased performance from 18 to 22 Mb/s. A BCM4306/3 also shows dramatic improvement of the transmit rate from 5.3 to 19.0 Mb/s. Other changes in the patch include removal of the magic number for the MMIO register, and allowing the slot time to be set for any PHY operating in the 2.4 GHz band. Previously, the routine was executed only for G PHYs.

2010-02-02virtio_net: Defer skb allocation in receive path Date: Wed, 13 Jan 2010 ↵Shirley Ma
12:53:38 -0800 virtio_net receives packets from its pre-allocated vring buffers, then it delivers these packets to upper layer protocols as skb buffs. So it's not necessary to pre-allocate skb for each mergable buffer, then frees extra skbs when buffers are merged into a large packet. This patch has deferred skb allocation in receiving packets for both big packets and mergeable buffers to reduce skb pre-allocations and skb frees. It frees unused buffers by calling detach_unused_buf in vring, so recv skb queue is not needed.
