2011-11-07forcedeth: remove unneeded stats updatesdavid decotigny
Function ndo_get_stats() updates most of the stats from hardware registers, making the manual updates un-needed. This change removes these manual updates. Main exception is rx_missed_errors which needs manual update. Another exception is rx_packets, still updated manually in this commit to make sure this patch doesn't change behavior of driver. This will be addressed by a future patch. Signed-off-by: David Decotigny <david.decotigny@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2011-11-07forcedeth: Acknowledge only interrupts that are being processedMike Ditto
This is to avoid a race, accidentally acknowledging an interrupt that we didn't notice and won't immediately process. This is based solely on code inspection; it is not known if there was an actual bug here. Signed-off-by: David Decotigny <david.decotigny@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2011-11-07forcedeth: fix race when unloading moduledavid decotigny
When forcedeth module is unloaded, there exists a path that can lead to mod_timer() after del_timer_sync(), causing an oops. This patch short-circuits this unneeded path, which originates in nv_get_ethtool_stats(). Tested: x86_64 16-way + 3 ethtool -S infinite loops + 100Mbps incoming traffic + rmmod/modprobe/ifconfig in a loop Initial-Author: Salman Qazi <sqazi@google.com> Discussion: http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/123548/ Signed-off-by: David Decotigny <david.decotigny@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2011-10-19net: add skb frag size accessorsEric Dumazet
To ease skb->truesize sanitization, its better to be able to localize all references to skb frags size. Define accessors : skb_frag_size() to fetch frag size, and skb_frag_size_{set|add|sub}() to manipulate it. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2011-10-07net: Remove unnecessary driver assignments of ethtool_ringparam fields to zeroRick Jones
Per comments from Ben Hutchings on a previous patch, sweep the floors a little removing unnecessary assignments of zero to fields of struct ethtool_ringparam in driver code supporting ethtool -g. Signed-off-by: Rick Jones <rick.jones2@hp.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2011-10-06net: use DMA_x_DEVICE and dma_mapping_error with skb_frag_dma_mapIan Campbell
When I converted some drivers from pci_map_page to skb_frag_dma_map I neglected to convert PCI_DMA_xDEVICE into DMA_x_DEVICE and pci_dma_mapping_error into dma_mapping_error. Signed-off-by: Ian Campbell <ian.campbell@citrix.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2011-08-27drivers/net/ethernet/*: Enabled vendor Kconfig optionsJeff Kirsher
Based on finds for Stephen Rothwell, where current defconfig's enable a ethernet driver and it is not compiled due to the newly added NET_VENDOR_* component of Kconfig. This patch enables all the "new" Kconfig options so that current defconfig's will continue to compile the expected drivers. In addition, by enabling all the new Kconfig options does not add any un-expected options. CC: Stephen Rothwll <sfc@canb.auug.org.au> Signed-off-by: Jeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com>
