Add support for the Marvell 88E6060 switch chip. This chip only supports the Header and Trailer tagging formats, and we use it in Trailer mode since that mode is slightly easier to handle than Header mode. Signed-off-by:

This adds support for the Trailer switch tagging format. This is another tagging that doesn't explicitly mark tagged packets with a distinct ethertype, so that we need to add a similar hack in the receive path as for the Original DSA tagging format. Signed-off-by:

Add support for the Marvell 88E6131 switch chip. This chip only supports the original (ethertype-less) DSA tagging format. On the 88E6131, there is a PHY Polling Unit (PPU) which has exclusive access to each of the PHYs's MII management registers. If we want to talk to the PHYs from software, we have to disable the PPU and wait for it to complete its current transaction before we can do so, and we need to re-enable the PPU afterwards to make sure that the switch will notice changes in link state and speed on the individual ports as they occur. Since disabling the PPU is rather slow, and since MII management accesses are typically done in bursts, this patch keeps the PPU disabled for 10ms after a software access completes. This makes handling the PPU slightly more complex, but speeds up something like running ethtool on one of the switch slave interfaces from ~300ms to ~30ms on typical hardware. Signed-off-by:

Most of the DSA switches currently in the field do not support the Ethertype DSA tagging format that one of the previous patches added support for, but only the original DSA tagging format. The original DSA tagging format carries the same information as the Ethertype DSA tagging format, but with the difference that it does not have an ethertype field. In other words, when receiving a packet that is tagged with an original DSA tag, there is no way of telling in eth_type_trans() that this packet is in fact a DSA-tagged packet. This patch adds a hook into eth_type_trans() which is only compiled in if support for a switch chip that doesn't support Ethertype DSA is selected, and which checks whether there is a DSA switch driver instance attached to this network device which uses the old tag format. If so, it sets the protocol field to ETH_P_DSA without looking at the packet, so that the packet ends up in the right place. Signed-off-by:

Distributed Switch Architecture is a protocol for managing hardware switch chips. It consists of a set of MII management registers and commands to configure the switch, and an ethernet header format to signal which of the ports of the switch a packet was received from or is intended to be sent to. The switches that this driver supports are typically embedded in access points and routers, and a typical setup with a DSA switch looks something like this: +-----------+ +-----------+ | | RGMII | | | +-------+ +------ 1000baseT MDI ("WAN") | | | 6-port +------ 1000baseT MDI ("LAN1") | CPU | | ethernet +------ 1000baseT MDI ("LAN2") | |MIImgmt| switch +------ 1000baseT MDI ("LAN3") | +-------+ w/5 PHYs +------ 1000baseT MDI ("LAN4") | | | | +-----------+ +-----------+ The switch driver presents each port on the switch as a separate network interface to Linux, polls the switch to maintain software link state of those ports, forwards MII management interface accesses to those network interfaces (e.g. as done by ethtool) to the switch, and exposes the switch's hardware statistics counters via the appropriate Linux kernel interfaces. This initial patch supports the MII management interface register layout of the Marvell 88E6123, 88E6161 and 88E6165 switch chips, and supports the "Ethertype DSA" packet tagging format. (There is no officially registered ethertype for the Ethertype DSA packet format, so we just grab a random one. The ethertype to use is programmed into the switch, and the switch driver uses the value of ETH_P_EDSA for this, so this define can be changed at any time in the future if the one we chose is allocated to another protocol or if Ethertype DSA gets its own officially registered ethertype, and everything will continue to work.)

there's several drivers that have use "tx_timeout" for the .. tx timeout function. All fine with that, they're static, however for doing stats on how often which driver hits the timeout it's a tad unfortunate.

Since recent kernel (2.6.26 or 2.6.27) the PCI wakeup functions are influenced by generic device ability and configuration when enabling PCI-device triggered wake-up. This patch causes WoL setting to enable/disable device's wish to be permitted to wake-up the host when changing WoL options and also during device probing.

The device's carrier status is controlled via the functions netif_carrier_on() and netif_carrier_off(). These set or clear a bit indicating the carrier (aka lower level link) is down, and if the state changed, they fire off a routing netlink event. Add a call to netif_carrier_off() before register_netdev() so that the newly created device will be set to carrier down. Then when the carrier comes up for the first time, a netlink event will be generated, as the carrier changed from down to up. Otherwise the initial carrier up will appear to be changing the status from up to up, and so no event is generated since that's not a change. Signed-off-by:

mv643xx_eth uses ip_hdr() (defined in linux/ip.h), but relied on another header file to include the needed header file indirectly. In latest net-next this indirect include chain is gone, so the driver fails to build. Include linux/ip.h explicitly to fix this. Signed-off-by:

It was pointed out by Breno Leitao <leitao@linux.vnet.ibm.com> that ixgb would crash on PPC when an IOMMU was in use, if change_mtu was called. It appears to be a pretty simple issue in the driver that wasn't discovered because most systems don't run with an IOMMU. The driver needs to only unmap buffers that are mapped (duh).

When NETIF_F_LLTX is set, the atlx driver will use a private lock. But in recent kernels this implementation seems redundant and can cause problems where AF_PACKET sees things twice. Since NETIF_F_LLTX is marked as deprecated and shouldn't be used in new driver, this patch removes NETIF_F_LLTX and adds a mmiowb before sending packet. I have tested this driver on a Eee PC. It works well. Signed-off-by:

The PHY's aneg is configured and restarted whenever the link is brought up, e.g. when DHCP is started after the kernel has booted. This can take the link down for several seconds while auto-negotiation is redone. If the advertised features haven't changed, then it shouldn't be necessary to bring down the link and start auto-negotiation over again. genphy_config_advert() is enhanced to return 0 when the advertised features haven't been changed and >0 when they have been. genphy_config_aneg() then uses this information to not call genphy_restart_aneg() if there has been no change.
