o eliminate tx lock in netxen adapter struct, instead pound on netdev tx lock appropriately. o remove old "concurrent transmit" code that unnecessarily drops and reacquires tx lock in hard_xmit_frame(), this is already serialized the netdev xmit lock. o reduce scope of tx lock in tx cleanup. tx cleanup operates on different section of the ring than transmitting cpus and is guarded by producer and consumer indices. This fixes a race caused by rx softirq preemption on realtime kernels.

o separate and simpler irq handler for msi interrupts, avoids few checks than legacy mode. o avoid redudant tx_has_work() and rx_has_work() checks in interrupt and napi, which can uncork irq based on racy (lockless) access to tx and rx ring indices. If we get interrupt, there's sufficient reason to schedule napi. o replenish rx ring more often, remove self-imposed threshold rcv_free that prevents posting rx desc to card. This improves performance in low memory. Signed-off-by: NDhananjay Phadke <dhananjay@netxen.com> Tested-by: NVernon Mauery <mauery@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NJeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

Recent netxen firmware has new scheme of generating MSI interrupts, it raises interrupt and blocks itself, waiting for driver to unmask. This reduces chance of spurious interrupts. The driver will be able to deal with older firmware as well.

This is a critical patch which adds a workaround for a HW bug. The patch will limit the number of outstanding tx packets to 16. Otherwise, the HW could send out packets with bad checksums.

The last change in the Tx queue stop mechanism opens a window where the Tx queue might be stopped after pending credits returned. Tx credits are returned via a control message generated by the HW. It returns tx credits on demand, triggered by a completion bit set in selective transmit packet headers. The current code can lead to the Tx queue stopped with all pending credits returned, and the current frame not triggering a credit return. The Tx queue will then never be awaken. The driver could alternatively request a completion for packets that stop the queue. It's however safer at this point to go back to the pre-existing behaviour.

Problem Description and Fix --------------------------- When a pause packet(with destination as reserved Multicast address) is received by the EMAC hardware to control the flow of frames being transmitted by it, it is dropped by the hardware unless the reserved Multicast address is hashed in to the GAHT[1-4] registers. This code fix adds the default reserved multicast address to the GAHT[1-4] registers in the EMAC(s) present on the chip. The flow control with Pause packets will only work if the following register bits are programmed in EMAC: EMACx_MR1[APP] = 1 EMACx_RMR[BAE] = 1 EMACx_RMR[MAE] = 1 Behavior that may be observed in a running system ------------------------------------------------- A host transferring data from a PPC based system may send a Pause packet to the PPC EMAC requesting it to slow down the flow of packets. If the default reserved multicast MAC address is not programmed into the GAHT[1-4] registers this Pause packet will be dropped by PPC EMAC and no Flow Control will be done. Signed-off-by: NPravin M.

V . interrupt is delivered . skb_recv_done does atomic napi test, ok some waiting disable_cb is called->check fails->bang! . poll would do napi check poll would do disable_cb The fix is to let enable_cb not disable the interrupt again, but expect the caller to do the cleanup if it returns false. In that case, the interrupt is only disabled, if the napi test_set_bit was successful.
