* [PATCH] Janitor: drivers/net/pcnet32: fix incorrect commentsLinas Vepstas2006-03-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | The comments concerning how the pcnet32 ethernet device driver selects the MAC addr to use are incorrect. A recent patch (in the last 3 months) changed how the code worked, but did not change the comments. Side comment: the new behaviour is good; I've got a pcnet32 card which powers up with garbage in the CSR's, and a good MAC addr in the PROM.

* [PATCH] pcnet32: support boards with multiple physDon Fry2006-03-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Boards with multiple PHYs were not being handled properly by the pcnet32 driver. This patch by Thomas Bogendoerfer with changes by me will allow Allied Telesyn 2700FTX and 2701FTX boards to use either the copper or the fiber interfaces. It has been tested on ia32 and ppc64 hardware. Philippe Seewer also tested and improved the patch. ethtool for pcnet32 already supports multiple phys. See also bugzilla bug 4219. Please apply to 2.6.16 Signed-off-by: Don Fry <brazilnut@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

* [PATCH] pcnet32: use MAC address from prom also on powerpcOlaf Hering2005-12-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The CSR contains garbage after a coldboot on RS/6000. One some systems (like my 44p 270) the MAC address is all FF, on others (like my B50) it is ff:ff:ff:fd:ff:6b. It can eventually be fixed by loading pcnet32, set the interface into the UP state, rmmod pcnet32 and load it again. But this worked only on the 270. Only netbooting after a cold start provides the correct MAC address via prom and CSR. This makes it very unreliable. I dont know why the MAC is stored in two different places. Remove the special case for powerpc, which was added in early 2.4 development.

* [PATCH] pcnet32: Prevent hang with 79c976Don Fry2005-11-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | Some boards using the 79c976 pcnet32 chip will hang the system if the ethtool --register-dump is performed with the device operational. The request to read bcr30 is retried by the PCI device infinitely without returning data, hanging the system. Tested ia32 and ppc64.

* [PATCH] pcnet32: AT2700/2701 and Bugzilla 2699 & 4551Don Fry2005-11-05
| | | | | | | | | | | This patch is a better fix for Allied Telesyn 2700/2701 FX boards than the change made in early January this year. It allows the user to select the speed/duplex via module_param, but if no selection is made, forces the speed to 100 FD. It fixes both Bugzilla bugs 2669 and 4551. Tested ia32 and ppc64 by myself, and by the originator of bug 2669. Signed-off-by: Don Fry <brazilnut@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
* [PATCH] pcnet32: show name of failing deviceDon Fry2005-11-05
| | | | | | | | | | | Display the name eth%d or pci_name() of device which fails to allocate memory. When changing ring size via ethtool, it also releases the lock before returning on error. Added comment that the caller of pcnet32_alloc_ring must call pcnet32_free_ring on error, to avoid leak. Tested ia32 by forcing allocation errors.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | Don Fry reminded me that the pcnet32_loopback_test() asssumes the ring size is no less than 4. The minimum ring size was changed to 4 in pcnet32_set_ringparam() to allow the loopback test to work unchanged. - Set minimum ring size to 4 to allow loopback test to work unchanged - Moved variable init_block to first field in struct pcnet32_private Signed-off-by: Hubert WS Lin <wslin@tw.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>

* [NET]: Remove gratuitous use of skb->tail in network drivers.David S. Miller2005-06-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Many drivers use skb->tail unnecessarily. In these situations, the code roughly looks like: dev = dev_alloc_skb(...); [optional] skb_reserve(skb, ...); ... skb->tail ... But even if the skb_reserve() happens, skb->data equals skb->tail. So it doesn't make any sense to use anything other than skb->data in these cases. Another case was the s2io.c driver directly mucking with the skb->data and skb->tail pointers. It really just wanted to do an skb_reserve(), so that's what the code was changed to do instead. Another reason I'm making this change as it allows some SKB cleanups I have planned simpler to merge. In those cleanups, skb->head, skb->tail, and skb->end pointers are removed, and replaced with skb->head_room and skb->tail_room integers. Signed-off-by: David S.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
