      [PATCH] A new 10GB Ethernet Driver by Chelsio Communications · 8199d3a7
      Christoph Lameter 提交于
      A Linux driver for the Chelsio 10Gb Ethernet Network Controller by Chelsio
      (http://www.chelsio.com).  This driver supports the Chelsio N210 NIC and is
      backward compatible with the Chelsio N110 model 10Gb NICs.  It supports
      AMD64, EM64T and x86 systems.

      - my3126.c is unused (because t1_my3126_ops isn't used anywhere)
      - what are the EXTRA_CFLAGS in drivers/net/chelsio/Makefile for?
      - $(cxgb-y) in drivers/net/chelsio/Makefile seems to be unneeded
      - completely unused global functions:
        - espi.c: t1_espi_get_intr_counts
        - sge.c: t1_sge_get_intr_counts
      - the following functions can be made static:
        - sge.c: t1_espi_workaround
        - sge.c: t1_sge_tx
        - subr.c: __t1_tpi_read
        - subr.c: __t1_tpi_write
        - subr.c: t1_wait_op_done

      The performance recommendations in cxgb.txt are common to all fast devices,
      and should be in one file rather than just for this device. I would rather
      see ip-sysctl.txt updated or a new file on tuning recommendations started.
      Some of them have consequences that aren't documented well.
      For example, turning off TCP timestamps risks data corruption from sequence wrap.
      
      A new driver shouldn't need so may #ifdef's unless you want to putit on older
      vendor versions of 2.4
      
      Some accessor and wrapper functions like:
              t1_pci_read_config_4
              adapter_name
              t1_malloc
      are just annoying noise.
      
      Why have useless dead code like:
      
      /* Interrupt handler */
      +static int pm3393_interrupt_handler(struct cmac *cmac)
      +{
      +       u32 master_intr_status;
      +/*
      +    1. Read master interrupt register.
      +    2. Read BLOCK's interrupt status registers.
      +    3. Handle BLOCK interrupts.
      +*/

      step 1:  kill all the OS wrappers.
      
       And do you really need hooks for multiple MACs, when only one MAC is
       really supported?  Typically these hooks are at a higher level anyway --
       struct net_device.
      
      From: Christoph Lameter <christoph@lameter
      
      Driver modified as suggested by Pekka Enberg, Stephen Hemminger and Andrian
      Bunk.  Reduces the size of the driver to ~260k.
      
      - clean up tabs
      - removed my3126.c
      - removed 85% of suni1x10gexp_regs.h
      - removed 80% of regs.h
      - removed various calls, renamed variables/functions.
      - removed system specific and other wrappers (usleep, msleep)
      - removed dead code
      - dropped redundant casts in osdep.h
      - dropped redundant check of kfree
      - dropped weird code (MODVERSIONS stuff)
      - reduced number of #ifdefs
      - use kcalloc now instead of kmalloc
      - Add information about known issues with the driver
      - Add information about authors
