2d42d21f11 [PATCH] sky2: pci config space checking
There were bugs in mmconfig access to PCI space, up to and
include 2.6.16-rc1. These prevented the sky2 driver from being
able to clear PCI express errors.

This patch makes the driver check (during probe), for errors
in PCI config access and fail.

For debugging, it is useful to allow ethtool to dump all of
the PCI mapped space. There is one small set of registers for RAM
diagnostics that needs to be avoided to prevent hanging, but all
the rest is accessible.

79e57d32fe [PATCH] sky2: fix FIFO DMA alignment problems
The Yukon2 chip FIFO has a problem recovering from a pause frame
if the receive buffer is not aligned. The workaround is to just
leave receive buffer at original alignment, which will make IP
header unaligned. Rework receive logic for clarity.

Need to ignore receive overrun interrupts (or mac hangs).

These fixes make the sky2 driver generally usable.

793b883ed1 [PATCH] sky2: driver update.
Here is revised patch against netdev sky2 branch.
It includes whitespace fixes, all the changes from the previous
review as well as some optimizations and timing fixes to
solve some of the hangs.

The stall problem is better but not perfect. It appears that
under stress the chip can't keep up with the bus
and sends a pause frame, then hangs. This version is for
testing, and hopefully other eyes might see the root
cause of the problem.

I don't want to reinvent the ugly watchdog code in the syskonnect
version of sk98lin.  If you read it you will see, the original
driver writer and the hardware developer obviously didn't
understand each other.

Dual port support is included, but not tested yet. It did
require small change to NAPI since both ports share same
IRQ.

cd28ab6a4e [PATCH] sky2: new experimental Marvell Yukon2 driver
New driver for the Marvell Yukon2 Gigabit Ethernet chipset.
This driver is based on the skge driver, but using the logic
from the SysKonnect version of the sk98lin driver.
It should support all the Yukon2 chipsets that are available
in many current Intel and AMD motherboards.

The driver does support ethtool, tx and rx checksum, and
tcp segmentation offload.  But it has only been tested for
a short while and is known to stop receiving under heavy load.
