由 Tristram Ha 提交于
This is a new network driver for Micrel KSZ8841/KSZ8842 PCI Ethernet chips. The same driver can run both chips at the same time. It supports IPv4 TCP hardware checksumming and so can use scatter/gather transmission. The KSZ8842 switch has 2 ports. Some users like to take direct control of those ports. So KSZ8842 has a multiple devices mode in which the driver creates another network device so that users can specify which port to send packets. This mode is enabled by passing the "multi_dev=1" parameter to the driver during loading. The KSZ884X can receive huge frames with size up to 1916 bytes. To use this feature change the network device MTU from 1500 to 1898. The KSZ884X driver has 3 packet receive processing functions for the normal mode, multiple devices mode, and huge frame mode. Those functions are identical except for more checking for the new features. In normal programming point of view the huge frame version is the one to use because it covers all the cases, but this is done for performance consideration because the target clients for the KSZ884X chips are embedded systems, which unlike desktop PC may not have powerful CPU.

A pointer to am79c961_probe is passed to the core via platform_driver_register and so the function must not disappear when the .init sections are discarded. Otherwise (if also having HOTPLUG=y) unbinding and binding a device to the driver via sysfs will result in an oops as does a device being registered late. An alternative to this patch is using platform_driver_probe instead of platform_driver_register plus removing the pointer to the probe function from the struct platform_driver.

Break the largish case for handling receive checksum into a separate function, and if there is a problem use dev_XXX routines to show which hardware is the problem. Turn one corner case into a BUG(). This only happens if the driver is expecting one behavior but the chip does the old behavior; only ever saw this when bringing up a new chip type and driver was buggy.

The fec driver was enabling receive buffer descriptor without allocating the buffers. Make sure the buffer descriptors are initialized to not start receiving packets. Open also calls fec_restart after the rx buffers are allocated. With the code in fec_restart, it zeroes out the buffer descriptors that have just been setup.

This change corrects an issue that will cause false hangs when using either 82575 or 82580 in legacy interrupt mode. The issue is caused when there is a slow traffic flow and an "ethtool -r" is executed while using legacy or MSI interrupts. MSI-X is not affected by this issue due to the fact that we were already reconfiguring the vectors after reset. If possible it would be best to push this for net-2.6 since it is resolving a bug but if that is not possible then net-next-2.6 will be fine.

If receive buffer mapping failed, then it was possible to get stuck with unmapped receive buffer in DMA ring. This would be an extremely rare condition because the driver had just released the map for the last receive so it should be able to get another map again (in soft-irq).

This patch addresses concerns about efficiency of handling incoming packets. Handling of interrupts is done in a threaded interrupt handler which has a smaller latency than workqueues. This change needed a rework of the locking scheme that was much simplified. Some other (more or less longstanding) bugs are fixed: utilization of just half of the RX buffers, useless wait for interrupt on open, more reliable reset sequence. The MERR interrupt is not used anymore: it overloads the CPU in error-passive state without any additional information. One shot mode is disabled because it's not clear if it can be handled efficiently on this CAN controller.

In order to use macvlan with qemu and other tools that require a tap file descriptor, the macvtap driver adds a small backend with a character device with the same interface as the tun driver, with a minimum set of features. Macvtap interfaces are created in the same way as macvlan interfaces using ip link, but the netif is just used as a handle for configuration and accounting, while the data goes through the chardev. Each macvtap interface has its own character device, simplifying permission management significantly over the generic tun/tap driver.
