sfc: Correct address of gPXE boot configuration in EEPROM

2008-11-07T08:33:45Z

Due to a hardware bug, the originally assigned range cannot reliably be used for boot configuration and must not be modifiable through ethtool. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik

sfc: Fix type of FALCON_SPI_MAX_LEN

2008-09-24T22:54:42Z

FALCON_SPI_MAX_LEN has type size_t while other SPI lengths have type unsigned int. This results in warnings from min() on 64-bit architectures where they are different. Add a cast to make it match. From: Steve Hodgson Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik

sfc: Use CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS where appropriate

2008-09-24T22:54:42Z

For some buffers we use a starting offset of either NET_IP_ALIGN or 0 depending on whether we believe the architecture supports efficient access to unaligned words. There is now a config macro specifying whether this is the case, so check that rather than checking for specific architectures. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik

sfc: Remove obsolete comment about PCI modes

sfc: Disable interrupts after a fatal interrupt occurs until reset

2008-09-24T22:54:40Z

This should avoid an interrupt storm, which has been observed in the field with one faulty board. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik

sfc: Insert read memory barrier after checking MAC statistics flag

2008-09-24T22:54:40Z

This prevents speculative reading of the statistics before the completion flag. From: Neil Turton Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik

sfc: Stop generating bogus events in tenxpress_check_hw()

2008-09-24T22:54:39Z

mdio_clause45_links_ok() correctly checks efx_phy_mode_disabled(), so tenxpress_link_ok() doesn't need to. From: Steve Hodgson Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik

sfc: Don't include net_driver.h from falcon_io.h

sfc: Make queue flushes more reliable

2008-09-24T22:54:37Z

Increase the potential retry count for RX flushes from 5 to 100. Stop polling the RX_DESC_PTR_TBL to infer that a flush might have happened. Instead absolutely rely on the flush events, unless bug 7803 applies (Falcon rev A only). To keep things quick, request flushes for every TX and RX queue up front, and match up the events to requests. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik

sfc: Don't use EFX_OWORD_FIELD on an event (64-bit, quad-word)
