This change is meant to combine all of the TX flags fields into one u32 flags field so that it can be stored into the tx_buffer_info structure. This includes the time stamp flag as well as mapped_as_page flag info.

This change is meant to improve the readability of the driver by separating out the cmd_type configuration and the olinfo configuration into their own functions. By doing this it is much easier to determine which ingredients go into setting up these to portions of the descriptor.

This change converts two tx_buffer_info index values into pointers. The advantage to this is that we reduce unnecessary computations and in the case of next_to_watch we get an added bonus of the value being able to provide additional information as a NULL value indicates it is unset versus a 0 not having any meaning for the index value.

This patch is meant to simplify the transmit path by reducing the overhead for creating a transmit context descriptor. The current implementation is split with igb_tso and igb_tx_csum doing two separate implementations on how to setup the tx_buffer_info structure and the tx_desc. By combining them it is possible to reduce code and simplify things since now only one function will create context descriptors.

In order to be able to improve the performance of the TX path it has been necessary to add addition info to the tx_buffer_info structure. However a side effect is that the structure has gotten larger and this in turn has also increased the size of the RX buffer info structure. In order to avoid this in the future I am splitting the single buffer_info structure into two separate ones and instead I will join them by making the buffer_info pointer in the ring a union of the two.

When short packets are received with jumbos enabled on 82579, they can be interpreted to have a receive address that does not match any configured address. This is due to a hardware bug that can be worked around by reducing the number of IPG octets added when the packet is transferred from the PHY to the MAC.

The e1000 driver when running with lockdep could run into some possible deadlocks between the work items acquiring rtnl and the rtnl lock being acquired before work items were cancelled. Use a private mutex to make sure lock ordering isn't violated. The private mutex is only used to protect areas not generally covered by the rtnl lock already.

Thomas Gleixner (tglx) reported that e1000 was delaying for many milliseconds (using mdelay) from inside timer/interrupt context. None of these paths are performance critical and can be moved into threads/work items. This patch implements the work items and the next patch changes the mdelays to msleeps.

This patch verifies that the length of a buffer stored in a linked list of pages is small enough to fit into a skb. If the size is larger than a max size of a skb, it means that we shouldn't go ahead building skbs anyway since we won't be able to send the buffer as the user requested.

This is based on an earlier patch by Nick Carter with comments by David Lamparter but with some refinements. Thanks for their patience this is a confusing area with overlap of standards, user requirements, and compatibility with earlier releases. It adds a new sysfs attribute /sys/class/net/brX/bridge/group_fwd_mask that controls forwarding of frames with address of: 01-80-C2-00-00-0X The default setting has no forwarding to retain compatibility. One change from earlier releases is that forwarding of group addresses is not dependent on STP being enabled or disabled. This choice was made based on interpretation of tie 802.1 standards. I expect complaints will arise because of this, but better to follow the standard than continue acting incorrectly by default. The filtering mask is writeable, but only values that don't forward known control frames are allowed. It intentionally blocks attempts to filter control protocols. For example: writing a 8 allows forwarding 802.1X PAE addresses which is the most common request.

PCI device ID 0x1501 has a hardware bug when the link downshifts for whatever reason which requires a workaround. The workaround already exists for other similar devices but is not called for 0x1501 (it should be called for any ICH8-based device that uses a GbE PHY). There is also one other instance when the workaround should be called - after disabling gigabit speed when going to Sx.

There is a problem in the ixgbe driver with the reporting of the flow control parameters. The autoneg parameter is shown to be of if *either* it really is off, or current modes for both tx and rx are off. The problem is seen when the parameters are read or set when the link is down. In this case, the driver sees that tx and rx are currently off and therefore autoneg parameter is incorrectly reported to be off too. Also, the ethtool binary can not set the autoneg off since it sees that it already is. When a link later comes up, the autonegotiation is carried out normally and the driver later on reports the autoneg parameter to be on (as it is) and then it can also be changed with ethtool. The patch is made against v3.0 kernel, but the problem seems to be there since v2.6.30-rc1. Reviewer comments: What we are trying to do is to disable flow control while the cable is disconnected. Since ixgbe defaults to full flow control, we call ethtool -A autoneg off rx off tx off while the cable is disconnected. This doesn't work, because the driver sets hw->fc.current_mode = ixgbe_fc_none if the cable is unplugged. ixgbe_get_pauseparam() then reports to ethtool that nothing needs to be done. The code fixes this, but it might have some unknown consequences.
