In disagreement with the SPROM specs, revision 3 devices appear to have moved the MAC address. Change ssb to handle the revision 4 SPROM, which is a different size. This change in size is handled by adding a new variable to the ssb_sprom struct and using it whenever possible. For those routines that do not have access to this structure, a 'u16 size' argument is added. The new PCI_ID for the BCM4328 is also added. Testing of the Revision 4 SPROM, which is used on the BCM4328, was done by Michael Gerdau <mgerdau@tiscali.de>. Signed-off-by: Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

The SPROM's for various devices utilizing the Sonics Silicon Backplane come with various revisions. The Revision 2 SPROM inherited the data layout of 1, and Revision 3 inherited the layout of 2. The first instance of Revision 4 has now been found in a BCM4328 wireless LAN card. This device does not inherit any layout from previous versions. Although it was possible to create a data structure that kept all the old layouts, we decided to start fresh, keep only those SPROM variables that are used by the drivers that utilize ssb, and to do the conversion in such a manner that neither compilation or execution will be affected if a bisection lands in the middle of these changes, while keeping the patches as small as possible. In this patch, the sprom structures are changed while maintaining the old ones. Signed-off-by: Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

rt2400pci, rt2500pci and rt61 require different txdone handling, but the code that pushes the frame upstream and cleans up the entry is identical to all of them. This will create the function rt2x00pci_txdone() to remove the duplicate code. Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

This patch fixes the iwl4965 problem for "Can not find a suitable rate issues." by making rs_switch_to_mimo and rs_switch_to_siso functions return -1 when CONFIG_IWL4965_HT is not selected. They used to return 0, which means we can switch to HT rate causing the rate scale problem and the error message. The patch also fix another bug reported by Ben Cahill that it uses wrong value for max_success_limit.

pasemi_mac: Don't enable RX/TX without a link (if possible) Don't enable RX/TX of packets until we have a link, since there's a chance we'll just get RX frame errors, etc. The case where we don't have a PHY we can't do much about: Just enable it and deal with errors as they come in.

pasemi_mac: Print warning when not attaching to a PHY Print a warning on the console when not connecting to a phy for an interface.

Olof Johansson authored
pasemi_mac: Improve RX interrupt mitigation Currently the receive side interrupts will go off on the reception of a packet, NAPI will poll the ring and keep polling as long as there's a decent amount of packets to receive. This is less than optimal, especially for LRO where it's better if we have a more substantial amount of packets to process at once, to get the real LRO benefits. So, set the count threshold to a higher value and use the timeout feature that will give us an interrupt even if not enough packets have come in to set off the count threshold. FIXME: It'd be real nice to have ethtool support for users to tune this at runtime. Signed-off-by: Olof Johansson <olof@lixom.net> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

pasemi_mac: Fix TX cleaning This is a bit awkward. We don't have a timer-delayed interrupt on TX complete, but we have a count threshold. So set that reasonably high (32 packets), and schedule the NAPI poll when it goes off. Also bump a regular timer that will take care of rotting packets for the last 1..31 ones in case we don't trigger a TX interrupt (and there's no RX activity that would otherwise trigger the poll). The longer-term fix is to separate TX from RX NAPI and do two separate poll loops. Signed-off-by: Olof Johansson <olof@lixom.net> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

pasemi_mac: performance tweaks * Seems like we do better with a smaller RX ring, probably because chances of still having the SKB cached are better * Const-ify variables to get better code generation and fewer reloads * Move prefetching around a little, and try to prefetch the whole SKB * Set NETIF_F_HIGHDMA * Misc other minor tweaks Signed-off-by: Olof Johansson <olof@lixom.net> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

When using larger MTU's sky2 driver changes from allocating one data area, to using multiple pages. The threshold for this was based on a heuristic where the cost of a single allocation is bigger than one page. Since the allocator has changed, this heuristic is now incorrect; instead just make the threshold be when the total size of the allocation is greater than one page.
