The last update to the Ethernet HowTo (over 10 years ago) listed this: ------------------------ SEEQ 8005 Status: Obsolete, Driver Name: seeq8005 There is little information about the card included in the driver, and hence little information to be put here. If you have a question, you are probably best trying to e-mail the driver author as listed in the source. It was marked obsolete as of the 2.4 series kernels. ------------------------ If it was obsolete over a decade ago, the situation can not have improved with the passage of time, so let us act on that. Even with today's improved search engines, I was unable to locate any real meaningful information on the ISA implementation of this rare chip. There are ARM and SGI variants of the driver in tree, but they do not depend on the original x86 driver source or header file. We leave those non-x86 drivers to be deleted by the arch maintainers when they decide to expire those legacy platforms as a whole. Signed-off-by: NPaul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>

This is another one that makes sense to target for obsolescence, since it (a)appeared pre-1995, and (b)was rather rare, and (c)did not really have any statistically significant active linux user base. Removing this ISA 10Mbit driver support is unlikely to be even noticed by the user base of 3.9+ linux kernels, especially when the documentation clearly indicates the vintage with this text: "...designed to work with all kernels > 1.1.33" Signed-off-by: NPaul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>

These are old ISA 10Mbit cards from the 1st 1/2 of the 1990s and required manual jumper settings in order to configure them. Here we remove them on the premise that they are no longer used in any modern 3.9+ kernels. Signed-off-by: NPaul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>

This is an area I know all too well, after being author of several 8390 drivers, and maintainer of all 8390 drivers during a large part of their active lifecycle. To that end, I can say this with a reasonable degree of confidence. The drivers deleted here represent the earliest (as in early 1990) hardware and/or rare hardware. The remaining hardware not deleted here is the more modern/sane of the lot, with ISA-PnP and jumperless "soft configuration" like the wd and smc cards had. The original ne2000 driver (ne.c) gets a pass at this time since AT/LANTIC based cards that could be both ne2000 or wd-like (with shared memory) and with jumperless configuration were made in the mid to late 1990's, and performed reasonably well for their era.

These Fujitsu MB86965 based ISA 10Mbit cards were another of the relatively rare cards dating from the early 1990s that for one reason or another didn't seem to get a lot of use in linux. So we retire it now with a reasonable degree of confidence that it won't impact anyone. Signed-off-by: NPaul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>

These cards were only available in 8bit format, and in addition they only had AUI and BNC(10-Base2) interfaces (i.e. no RJ-45). In fact, they are so rare, that an internet search on these old cards almost comes up empty, unless the "Micom interlan" name is used. This puts them in the equivalent domain as the 3c501, so there should be no strong opposition to the driver removal, as nobody is seriously using 3.9+ with 8 bit ISA hardware. In doing so, the whole "ethernet/racal" category becomes empty, so we clean up the Makefile/Kconfig and subdir appropriately.

Like the other drivers that were in the ISA i825xx family, the ni52 was rather rare, not widely used, and hence perhaps not as reliable as the more mainstream ISA drivers that were heavily used.

This driver supported early to mid 1990's Zenith laptops, of the 2" thick variety. The driver was already dead 10+ years ago, but we see this in the source: ---------------- /* 10/2002 [...] Tested on a vintage Zenith Z-Note 433Lnp+. Probably broken on anything else. Testers (and detailed bug reports) are welcome :-). ---------------- To clarify, a 433 translates into a 486 at 33MHz, and a system with a default of 4MB RAM. I can't fault the noble effort to keep things working a decade ago, but at this point in time, there is no valid justification to continue carrying this driver along. Note that there is no associated Space.c cleanup here since this driver was using module_init to hook itself in. Signed-off-by: NPaul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>

These old drivers should not be confused with the very common PCI cards that are supported by e100.c -- these older 10Mbit ISA only drivers were not as commonly used as some of the other ISA drivers, simply due to hardware availability and pricing. Given the rarity of the hardware, and the subsequent less extensive use of the drivers, it makes sense to obsolete them at this point in time, along with other rare/experimental ISA drivers.

For those of us who were around in the early to mid 1990's, we will remember that the i825xx ethernet support was not something that was considered sufficiently vetted for 24/7 use. Folks might be inclined to use *functional* ISA hardware on some near expired P3 ISA machines for dedicated workhorse applications, but the odds of using (and relying on) one of these old/experimental drivers is essentially nil. So lets remove them. Signed-off-by: NPaul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>

The parallel port is largely replaced by USB, and even in the day where these drivers were current, the documented speed was less than 100kB/s. Let us not pretend that anyone cares about these drivers anymore, or worse - pretend that anyone is using them on a modern kernel. As a side bonus, this is the end of legacy parallel port ethernet, so we get to drop the whole chunk relating to that in the legacy Space.c file containing the non-PCI unified probe dispatch.

It was amusing that linux was able to make use of this 1980's technology on machines long past its intended lifespan, but it probably should go now. To set some context, the 3c501 was designed in the 1980's to be used on 8088 PC-XT 8bit ISA machines. It was built using a large number of discrete TTL components and truly looks like a relic of the ancient past before large scale integration was common. But from a functional point of view, the real issue, as stated in the (also obsolete) Ethernet-HowTo, is that "...the 3c501 can only do one thing at a time -- while you are removing one packet from the single-packet buffer it cannot receive another packet, nor can it receive a packet while loading a transmit packet." You know things are not good when the Kconfig help text suggests you make a cron job doing a ping every minute. Hardware that old and crippled is simply not going to be used by anyone in a time where 10 year old 100Mbit PCI cards (that are still functional) are largely give-away items.

This driver was specific to a "professional workstation" line of products from around 1993 that used the i82596 ethernet chip as an on-board ethernet solution. With a 486 processor, and the premium top of the line model maxing out at a clock speed of 50MHz, we can safely retire this support. Signed-off-by: NPaul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>

The Apricot was a 486 PC with 4MB RAM, and an on-board ethernet via an intel i82596 hard-wired to i/o 0x300. Those who were using linux in the 1990's will recall that the i82596 driver was not one of the more stable or widely used drivers of its day. Combine that with the extremely limited resources of the platform, and it is truly time to expire the support for this thing. There are some old m68k targets who were also using this chip, so rather than poll the m68k user base, we simply cut out the x86/Apricot support here in this commit.

This change is meant to both improve the performance and reduce the size of ixgbe_tx_map. To do this I have expanded the work done in the main loop by pushing first into tx_buffer. This allows us to pull in the dma_mapping_error check, the tx_buffer value assignment, and the initial DMA value assignment to the Tx descriptor. The net result is that the function reduces in size by a little over a 100 bytes and is about 1% or 2% faster.

This change is meant to improve the efficiency of the Tx flags in ixgbe by aligning them with the values that will later be written into either the cmd_type or olinfo. By doing this we are able to reduce most of these functions to either just a simple shift followed by an or in the case of cmd_type, or an and followed by an or in the case of olinfo. To do this I also needed to change the logic and/or drop some flags. I dropped the IXGBE_TX_FLAGS_FSO and it was replaced by IXGBE_TX_FLAGS_TSO since the only place it was ever checked was in conjunction with IXGBE_TX_FLAGS_TSO. I replaced IXGBE_TX_FLAGS_TXSW with IXGBE_TX_FLAGS_CC, this way we have a clear point for what the flag is meant to do. Finally the IXGBE_TX_FLAGS_NO_IFCS was dropped since were are already carrying the data for that flag in the skb. Instead we can just check the bitflag in the skb. In order to avoid type conversion errors I also adjusted the locations where we were switching between CPU and little endian.

When there is heavy transmission traffic in the CPDMA, then Rx descriptors memory is also utilized as tx desc memory looses all rx descriptors and the driver stops working then. This patch adds boundary for tx and rx descriptors in bd ram dividing the descriptor memory to ensure that during heavy transmission tx doesn't use rx descriptors. This patch is already applied to davinci_emac driver, since CPSW and davici_dmac shares the same CPDMA, moving the boundry seperation from Davinci EMAC driver to CPDMA driver which was done in the following commit commit 86d8c07f Author: Sascha Hauer <s.hauer@pengutronix.de> Date: Tue Jan 3 05:27:47 2012 +0000 net/davinci: do not use all descriptors for tx packets The driver uses a shared pool for both rx and tx descriptors. During open it queues fixed number of 128 descriptors for receive packets. For each received packet it tries to queue another descriptor. If this fails the descriptor is lost for rx. The driver has no limitation on tx descriptors to use, so it can happen during a nmap / ping -f attack that the driver allocates all descriptors for tx and looses all rx descriptors. The driver stops working then. To fix this limit the number of tx descriptors used to half of the descriptors available, the rx path uses the other half.
