2006-08-09[PATCH] myri10ge: always re-enable dummy rdmas in myri10ge_resumeBrice Goglin
Dummy RDMA are always enabled on device startup since commit 9a71db721a2cbb9921b929b2699ab181f5a3c6c0 (to work around buggy PCIe chipsets which do not implement resending properly). But, we also need to always re-enable them when resuming the device. Signed-off-by: Brice Goglin <brice@myri.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
2006-08-07[TG3]: Fix tx race conditionMichael Chan
Fix a subtle race condition between tg3_start_xmit() and tg3_tx() discovered by Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>: CPU0 CPU1 tg3_start_xmit() if (tx_ring_full) { tx_lock tg3_tx() if (!netif_queue_stopped) netif_stop_queue() if (!tx_ring_full) update_tx_ring netif_wake_queue() tx_unlock } Even though tx_ring is updated before the if statement in tg3_tx() in program order, it can be re-ordered by the CPU as shown above. This scenario can cause the tx queue to be stopped forever if tg3_tx() has just freed up the entire tx_ring. The possibility of this happening should be very rare though. The following changes are made: 1. Add memory barrier to fix the above race condition. 2. Eliminate the private tx_lock altogether and rely solely on netif_tx_lock. This eliminates one spinlock in tg3_start_xmit() when the ring is full. 3. Because of 2, use netif_tx_lock in tg3_tx() before calling netif_wake_queue(). 4. Change TX_BUFFS_AVAIL to an inline function with a memory barrier. Herbert and David suggested using the memory barrier instead of volatile. 5. Check for the full wake queue condition before getting netif_tx_lock in tg3_tx(). This reduces the number of unnecessary spinlocks when the tx ring is full in a steady-state condition. 6. Update version to 3.65. Signed-off-by: Michael Chan <mchan@broadcom.com> Acked-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2006-07-12[PATCH] sky2: optimize receive restartStephen Hemminger
When the driver handles multiple packets per NAPI poll, it is better to reload the receive ring, then tell the hardware. Otherwise, under packet storm with flow control, the driver/hardware will degrade down to one packet getting through per pause-exchange.
