Three basic changes to the comments at the top of each file: 1) remove stale "Maintained by" line...I prefer people look in MAINTAINERS. 2) Drop reference to stale sf.net/tulip website (I didn't see anything of value there) 3) Point people at bugzilla.kernel.org to submit bugs...will always get tracked regardless of who the maintainer is.

Currently all but one user (AT91SAM9261EK) of the dm9000 driver passes their IRQ flags through the resources attached to the platform device. This means we can remove the use of DEFAULT_TRIGGER as the blackfin machines all seem to have their triggers set properly. Signed-off-by:

The ENC28J60 driver ended up adding itself inbetween the two DM9000 Kconfig entries, so re-unite the two together. Signed-off-by:

The DM9000's internal PHY reports a copy of the link status in the NSR register of the chip. Reading the status when polling for link status is faster as it eliminates the need to sleep, but does not print as much information. Add an platform flag to force this behaviour, and a Kconfig option to allow it to be forced to the faster method always. Signed-off-by:

The DM9000_NSR register contains a copy of the internal PHY's link status which we can use to determine if the link is up or down. This eliminates the more costly (and sleeping) PHY read when using the DM9000's own PHY. Signed-off-by:

Remove the now extraneous checks in dm9000_release_board() now that the two-resource case is removed. Also remove the check on pdev->num_resources, as we check the return data from platform_get_resource() to ensure we have not only the right number but the right type of resources as well.

Add support for both the DM9000A and DM9000B versions of the DM9000 networking chip. This includes adding support for the Link-Change IRQ which is used instead of polling the PHY every 2 seconds. Signed-off-by:

The dm9000 driver accepts either 2 or 3 resources to describe the platform devices. The 2 resources case abuses the ioresource mechanism by passing ioremap()ed memory through the platform device resources. This patch removes converts boards that were using it to the 3 resources scheme. CC: Bryan Wu <cooloney@kernel.org> Signed-off-by:

The TPA stands for Transparent Packet Aggregation. When enabled, the FW aggregate in-order TCP packets according to the 4-tuple match and sends 1 big packet to the driver. This packet is stored on an SGL in which each SGE is 1 page. The FW also implements a timeout algorithm and it honors all TCP flag, including the push flag as a trigger to halt aggregation. After receiving Ben Hutchings comments, we also added ethtool support, so now, thanks to Ben's patch, when forwarding is enabled, our aggregation is turned off using the LRO flags. Signed-off-by:

Supporting the 57711 and 57711E - refers to in the code as E1H. The 57710 is referred to as E1. To support the new members in the family, the bnx2x structure was divided to 3 parts: common, port and function. These changes caused some rearrangement in the bnx2x.h file. A set of accessories macros were added to make access to the bnx2x structure more readable Signed-off-by:

This new initialization code supports the 57711 HW. It also supports the emulation and FPGA for the 57711 and 57710 initializations values (very small amount of code which is very helpful in the lab - less than 30 lines). The initialization is done via DMAE after the DMAE block is ready - before it is ready, some of the initialization is done via PCI configuration transactions (referred to as indirect write). A mutex to protect the DMAE from being overlapped was added. There are few new registers which needs to be initialized by SW - the full comment for those registers is added to the register file. A place holder for the 57711 (referred to as E1H) microcode was added- the microcode itself is too big and it is split over the following 4 patches Signed-off-by:

New Link code: Moving all the link related code (including the calculations, the initialization of the MAC and PHY and the external PHY's code) into a separated file. The changes from the code that used to be part of bnx2x.c (now called bnx2x_main.c) are: - Using separate structures for link inputs and link outputs to clearly identify what was configured and what is the outcome - Adding code to read external PHY FW version and print it as part of ethtool -i - Adding code to upgrade external PHY FW from ethtool -E with special magic number - Changing the link down indication to ERR level - Adding a lock on all PHY access to prevent an interrupt and setting changes to overlap - Adding support for emulation and FPGA (small chunk of code that really helps in the lab) - Adding support for 1G on BCM8706 PHY - Adding clear debug print incase of fan failure (the PHY type is now "failure") Signed-off-by:

Use the same MSI-X handler to schedule NAPI. Change the dev_instance void pointer to the bnx2_napi struct instead so we can have the proper context for each MSI-X vector. Add a new bnx2_poll_msix() that is optimized for handling MSI-X NAPI polling of rx/tx work only. Remove the old bnx2_tx_poll() that is no longer needed. Each MSI-X vector handles 1 tx and 1 rx ring. The first vector handles link events as well. Signed-off-by:

Add hw_tx_cons_ptr and hw_rx_cons_ptr to speed up the retreival of the tx and rx consumer index, since the MSI-X and default status blocks have different structures. Combine status_blk and status_blk_msix into a union. We'll only use one type of status block for each vector. Separate the code to detect more rx and tx work from the code to detect link related work. Signed-off-by:

In preparation for multi-ring support, rx ring variables are now put in a separate bnx2_rx_ring_info struct. With MSI-X, we can support multiple rx rings. The functions to allocate/free rx memory and to initialize rx rings are now modified to handle multiple rings. Signed-off-by:

In preparation for multi-ring support, tx ring variables are now put in a separate bnx2_tx_ring_info struct. Multi tx ring will not be enabled until it is fully supported by the stack. Only 1 tx ring will be used at the moment. The functions to allocate/free tx memory and to initialize tx rings are now modified to handle multiple rings. Signed-off-by:

Large Receive Offload (LRO) is only appropriate for packets that are destined for the host, and should be disabled if received packets may be forwarded. It can also confuse the GSO on output. Add dev_disable_lro() function which uses the appropriate ethtool ops to disable LRO if enabled. Add calls to dev_disable_lro() in br_add_if() and functions that enable IPv4 and IPv6 forwarding.

RFC 4960, Section 11.4. Protection of Non-SCTP-Capable Hosts When an SCTP stack receives a packet containing multiple control or DATA chunks and the processing of the packet requires the sending of multiple chunks in response, the sender of the response chunk(s) MUST NOT send more than one packet. If bundling is supported, multiple response chunks that fit into a single packet MAY be bundled together into one single response packet. If bundling is not supported, then the sender MUST NOT send more than one response chunk and MUST discard all other responses. Note that this rule does NOT apply to a SACK chunk, since a SACK chunk is, in itself, a response to DATA and a SACK does not require a response of more DATA. We implement this by not servicing our outqueue until we reach the end of the packet. This enables maximum bundling. We also identify 'response' chunks and make sure that we only send 1 packet when sending such chunks. Signed-off-by:
