The only user of the net_device->last_rx field is bonding. This patch adds a conditional update of last_rx to the bonding special logic in skb_bond_should_drop, causing last_rx to only be updated when the ARP monitor is running. This frees network device drivers from the necessity of updating last_rx, which can have cache line thrash issues. Signed-off-by: Jay Vosburgh <fubar@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

This patch gets about 1.25% back on tbench regression. My change to NAPI for multiqueue support changed the time limit on network receive processing. Under sustained loads like tbench, this can cause the receiver to reschedule prematurely. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Add IPv6 support to LBLC and LBLCR schedulers. These were the last schedulers without IPv6 support, but we might want to keep the supports_ipv6 flag in the case of future schedulers without IPv6 support.

This patch refines the phylib support in the tg3 driver. The patch does the following things : * Rename tg3_mdio_config() to tg3_mdio_config_5785(). The 5785 will be the only device that will use it so the name might as well reflect that. * Fix a memory leak if mdiobus_register() fails. * Add code to deal with phy device detection failures. * Add code to correct the supported list of phy features based on the MAC <=> PHY interface.

Commit 12dac075 ("tg3: adapt tg3 to use reworked PCI PM code") introduced the new PCI PM API to the tg3 driver. The patch was understandably conservative, so this patch elaborates on that work. The patch starts by creating a single point in tg3_set_power_state() to decide whether or not to enable WOL. The rest of the code in tg3_set_power_state() was then pivoted to use the result of this decision. The patch then makes sure the device is allowed to wakeup before reporting whether or not WOL is currently enabled. The final hunks of the patch consolidate where the WOL capability and WOL enabled flags are set to a single location.

With older versions of the NVRAM format, the driver may mistakenly determine that APE is enabled. Make sure this doesn't happen by restricting the ENABLE_APE check to devices known to have more recent NVRAM image formats.

This patch reclaims the TG3_FLG3_5761_5784_AX_FIXES flag. It only used twice in non-fast paths.

This patch moves the __tg3_set_mac_addr() function earlier in the file listing, to avoid a function prototype, and calls the function to restore the LAA after a driver unload chip reset. With this code in place, the administrator can wake the machine using the LAA.

DASH firmware runs on the APE side of the chip, but it requires a few MAC to be programmed correctly. When WOL is enabled and management firmware is disabled, incoming packets are evaluated and discarded at the chip's rule processor. When management firmware is enabled, the hardware must be informed that there are agents further up the stack that still use the incoming frames. Normally management firmware will configure the MAC correctly on its own, but there can be cases where the setting could get clobbered by the driver. The first hunk of this patch preserves this setting. The second hunk of this patch wipes out the driver present signature of the APE memory space. By doing so, the DASH firmware can assume driver absent behavior. Signed-off-by: Matt Carlson <mcarlson@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Chan <mchan@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

This patch replaces the existing APE register mapping code with a call to pci_ioremap_bar(). The code that maps the main device register space did not undergo a similar change because the information derived from the pci_resource_start() and pci_resource_len() is still used to populate the (optional) mem_start and mem_end netdevice members. Replace hardcoded constants where appropriate. Signed-off-by: Matt Carlson <mcarlson@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Chan <mchan@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

This eliminates the following often-generated warning from my 64 bit Opteron SMP test stand: eth0: too many iterations (6) in nv_nic_irq According to the web, the problem is that the forcedeth driver has a too-low value for max_interrupt_work. Grepping the kernel I see that forcedeth has the second lowest value of all ethernet drivers (ie, 6). Most are in the 20-40 range. So this patch increases this a bit, from 6 to 15 (at 15 forcedeth becomes the driver with third-lowest max_interrupt_work value). My test stand, which used to print out the above warnings repetitively whenever it was under heavy net load, no longer does so.
