08c3103a56 [PATCH] bcm43xx: remove badness variable and related routine
When the periodic work function in bcm43xx was converted for voluntary preemption
to reduce latency, a new function was created to estimate the "badness" of
each step, and this quantity was used to determine if preemption should be
enabled when periodic work was undertaken. This concept was quite useful
while debugging of periodic work was in progress. Now that this routine
seems to be working correctly, it is time to simplify the code. This
patch keeps the functionality intact, but simplifies the code.

6b655529c3 [PATCH] Fixed a number of bugs in the PHY Layer
* genphy_update_link is now exported
* Added a fix from ncase@xes-inc.com which changes forcing so it
  only updates the link.  Otherwise, it never tries the lower
  values, since it is always overwriting the speed/duplex values
  with the current ones, rather than the intended ones.
* Fixed a bug where bringing up a PHY with no link caused it to
  timeout, and enter forcing mode.  Once in forcing mode,
  plugging in the link didn't autonegotiate.  Now the AN state
  detects the lack of link, and enters the NO_LINK state.  AN
  only times out if the link is up and AN fails
* Cleaned up the PHY_AN case, reducing one level of indentation
  for the timeout code.

835bb12983 e1000: add dynamic itr modes
Add a new dynamic itr algorithm, with 2 modes, and make it the default
operation mode. This greatly reduces latency and increases small packet
performance, at the "cost" of some CPU utilization. Bulk traffic
throughput is unaffected.

The driver can limit the amount of interrupts per second that the
adapter will generate for incoming packets. It does this by writing a
value to the adapter that is based on the maximum amount of interrupts
that the adapter will generate per second.

Setting InterruptThrottleRate to a value greater or equal to 100 will
program the adapter to send out a maximum of that many interrupts per
second, even if more packets have come in. This reduces interrupt
load on the system and can lower CPU utilization under heavy load,
but will increase latency as packets are not processed as quickly.

The default behaviour of the driver previously assumed a static
InterruptThrottleRate value of 8000, providing a good fallback value
for all traffic types,but lacking in small packet performance and
latency. The hardware can handle many more small packets per second
however, and for this reason an adaptive interrupt moderation algorithm
was implemented.

Since 7.3.x, the driver has two adaptive modes (setting 1 or 3) in
which it dynamically adjusts the InterruptThrottleRate value based on
the traffic that it receives. After determining the type of incoming
traffic in the last timeframe, it will adjust the InterruptThrottleRate
to an appropriate value for that traffic.

The algorithm classifies the incoming traffic every interval into
classes.  Once the class is determined, the InterruptThrottleRate
value is adjusted to suit that traffic type the best. There are
three classes defined: "Bulk traffic", for large amounts of packets
of normal size; "Low latency", for small amounts of traffic and/or
a significant percentage of small packets; and "Lowest latency",
for almost completely small packets or minimal traffic.

In dynamic conservative mode, the InterruptThrottleRate value is
set to 4000 for traffic that falls in class "Bulk traffic". If
traffic falls in the "Low latency" or "Lowest latency" class, the
InterruptThrottleRate is increased stepwise to 20000. This default
mode is suitable for most applications.

For situations where low latency is vital such as cluster or
grid computing, the algorithm can reduce latency even more when
InterruptThrottleRate is set to mode 1. In this mode, which operates
the same as mode 3, the InterruptThrottleRate will be increased
stepwise to 70000 for traffic in class "Lowest latency".

Setting InterruptThrottleRate to 0 turns off any interrupt moderation
and may improve small packet latency, but is generally not suitable
for bulk throughput traffic.

8390.c.  Since we generate a single 8390.o and then link with it, in any
config with both oddball and normal 8390-based driver we will end up with
breakage in at least one of them.  Solution: take most of 8390.c into
lib8390.c and have 8390.c, etherh.c and the rest of oddballs #include it.
Helper macros are taken from 8390.h to whoever includes lib8390.c.  That
way odd drivers get separate instances of compiled 8390 stuff and stop
stepping on each other's toes.  8390.h gets cleaned up - we don't have
the cascade of ifdefs in there and are left with the stuff that can be
used by any 8390-based driver.  Current problems are exactly because of
that cascade - we attempt to choose the set of helpers by looking at config
and that, of course, doesn't work well when we have several sets needed
by various drivers in our config.

Tobias Diedrich <ranma@tdiedrich.de> sayeth:

Vanilla forcedeth doesn't seem to support suspend and an ifdown/up-cycle is
needed to get it working again after suspend.  Francois Romieu's "Awfully
experimental" patch is working just fine for me (with message signalled
interrupts disabled) and has survived quite a few suspend/resume cycles.

So I'd very much like to see (at least partial, with msi disabled)
suspend support for forcedeth in mainline.

3c3070d713 [PATCH] 2.6.18: sb1250-mac: Phylib IRQ handling fixes
This patch fixes a couple of problems discovered with interrupt handling
in the phylib core, namely:

1. The driver uses timer and workqueue calls, but does not include
   <linux/timer.h> nor <linux/workqueue.h>.

2. The driver uses schedule_work() for handling interrupts, but does not
   make sure any pending work scheduled thus has been completed before
   driver's structures get freed from memory.  This is especially
   important as interrupts may keep arriving if the line is shared with
   another PHY.

   The solution is to ignore phy_interrupt() calls if the reported device
   has already been halted and calling flush_scheduled_work() from
   phy_stop_interrupts() (but guarded with current_is_keventd() in case
   the function has been called through keventd from the MAC device's
   close call to avoid a deadlock on the netlink lock).

Through some experimentation with the similarly built bcm43xx I came to
the conclusion that if the hw/firmware sets a bit in the interrupt

the interrupt mask. Hence, the interrupt mask is more like an interrupt
control mask.

36da4d869f [TG3]: Fix 2nd ifup failure on 5752M.
This fixes a bug reported in:

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7438

tg3_close() turns off the PHY if WoL and ASF are both disabled.  On
the next tg3_open(), some devices such as the 5752M will not be
brought up correctly without a PHY reset early in the reset sequence.
The PHY clock is needed for some internal MAC blocks to function
correctly.

This problem is fixed by always resetting the PHY early in
tg3_reset_hw() when it is called from tg3_open() or tg3_resume().
tg3_setup_phy() can then be called later in the sequence without the
reset_phy parameter set to 1, since the PHY reset is already done.

Update version to 3.68.

df6d7c94b0 [PATCH] bcm43xx: fix unexpected LED control values in BCM4303 sprom
The bcm43xx driver uses 4 locations in the devices sprom to determine
the behavior of the leds. Certain defaults are assigned if all bits are
set in those locations. On at least one BCM4303 chip, the sprom contains
values other than the default, which executes an assertion placed in the
default case of a following switch statement. This patch makes the leds
on the above mentioned interface behave correctly. In addition, it limits
the number of logged messages to 20 for the case of unexpected values in
the sprom locations.

81e171b95d [PATCH] bcm43xx: Fix low-traffic netdev watchdog TX timeouts
This fixes a netdev watchdog timeout problem.
The software needs to call netif_tx_disable before running the
hardware calibration code. The problem condition can be shown by the
following timegraph.

|---5secs - ~10 jiffies time---|---|OOPS
^                              ^
last real TX                   periodic work stops netif

At OOPS, the following happens:
The watchdog timer triggers, because the timeout of 5secs
is over. The watchdog first checks for stopped TX.
_Usually_ TX is only stopped from the TX handler to indicate
a full TX queue. But this is different. We need to stop TX here,
regardless of the TX queue state. So the watchdog recognizes
the stopped device and assumes it is stopped due to full
TX queues (Which is a _wrong_ assumption in this case). It then
tests how far the last TX has been in the past. If it's more than
5secs (which is the case for low or no traffic), it will fire
a TX timeout.

115e222d53 [PATCH] hostap_plx: fix CIS verification
The length of the manfid CIS should be at least 4, and it's normally 4.
It's incorrect to require it to be at least 5.  This breaks support for
most (if not all) cards.

The right place to ensure that we don't access beyond the CIS buffer is
to strengthen another check.  Make sure that the next tuple begins at
least at the CIS buffer end (in which case we stop processing) or
before that.

0ca43235b3 [PATCH] sky2: netpoll on dual port cards
The sky2 driver uses a single NAPI poll routine for both ports on dual ported
cards (because there is a single IRQ and status ring). Netpoll makes assumptions
about the relationship between network device and NAPI that aren't correct
on the second port, this will cause the port to never clear work.

Most systems, just have single port, so not a big issue.
The easy fix is just make the second port, not netpoll capable.
