Back before e1000-7.3.20, the e1000 driver had a simple algorithm that
managed interrupt moderation. The driver was updated in 7.3.20 to
have the new "adaptive" interrupt moderation but we have customer
requests to redeploy the old way as an option. This patch adds the
old functionality back. The new functionality can be enabled via
module parameter or at runtime via ethtool.
Module parameter: (InterruptThrottleRate=4) to use this new
moderation method.
Ethtool method: ethtool -C ethX rx-usecs 4

This change increases the RX fifo size to 36K for standard frames and
decreases the TX fifo size to 4K. The reason for this change is that on
slower systems the RX is much more likely to backfill and need space than
the TX is. As long as the TX fifo is twice the size of the MTU we should
have more than enough TX fifo.

In e1000_tx_map, precompute number of segements and bytecounts which
are derived from fields in skb; these are stored in buffer_info. When
cleaning tx in e1000_clean_tx_irq use the values in the associated
buffer_info for statistics counting, this eliminates cache misses

With following patch I can reach maximum rate of my pktgen+udpsink
simulator :
- 'old' machine : dual quad core E5450 @3.00GHz
- 64 UDP rx flows (only differ by destination port)
- RPS enabled, NIC interrupts serviced on cpu0
- rps dispatched on 7 other cores. (~130.000 IPI per second)
- SLAB allocator (faster than SLUB in this workload)
- tg3 NIC
- 1.080.000 pps without a single drop at NIC level.
Idea is to add two prefetchw() calls in __alloc_skb(), one to prefetch
first sk_buff cache line, the second to prefetch the shinfo part.
Also using one memset() to initialize all skb_shared_info fields instead
of one by one to reduce number of instructions, using long word moves.
All skb_shared_info fields before 'dataref' are cleared in
__alloc_skb().

All distributions enable it, therefore no significant body of users
are even testing the driver with it disabled. And making NAPI
configurable is heavily discouraged anyways.
I left the MSI-X interrupt enabling thing in an "#if 0" block
so hopefully someone can debug that and it can get re-enabled.
Probably it was just one of the NVIDIA chipset MSI erratas that
we work handle these days in the PCI quirks (see drivers/pci/quirks.c

Use correct bit positions in DM_SHARED_CTRL register for writes.
Michael Planes recently encountered a 'KY-RS9600 USB-LAN converter', which
came with a driver CD containing a Linux driver. This driver turns out to
be a copy of dm9601.c with symbols renamed and my copyright stripped.
That aside, it did contain 1 functional change in dm_write_shared_word(),
and after checking the datasheet the original value was indeed wrong
(read versus write bits).
On Michaels HW, this change bumps receive speed from ~30KB/s to ~900KB/s.
On other devices the difference is less spectacular, but still significant
(~30%).

In ppp_input(), PPP_PROTO(skb) may refer to invalid data in the skb.
If this happens and (proto >= 0xc000 || proto == PPP_CCPFRAG) then
the packet is passed directly to pppd.
This occurs frequently when using PPPoE with an interface MTU
greater than 1500 because the skb is more likely to be non-linear.

When IBSS is fixed to a frequency, it can still
scan to try to find the right BSSID. This makes
sense if the BSSID isn't also fixed, but it need
not scan all channels -- just one is sufficient.
Make it do that by moving the scan setup code to
ieee80211_request_internal_scan() and include
a channel variable setting.
Note that this can be further improved to start
the IBSS right away if both frequency and BSSID
are fixed.

This allows enabling TX and disabling both TX and
RX aggregation sessions manually in debugfs. It is
very useful for debugging session initiation and
teardown problems since with this you don't have
to force a lot of traffic to get aggregation and
thus have less data to analyse.
Also, to debug mac80211 code itself, make hwsim
"support" aggregation sessions. It will still just
transfer the frame, but go through the setup and
teardown handshakes.

Local bus and USB drivers will need to do locking differently.
The original orinoco_usb patches had a boolean variable controlling
whether spin_lock_bh was used, or irq based locking. This version
provides wrappers for the lock functions and the drivers specify the

This will introduce a performance penalty, but I'm not expecting it to
