Mark Lord 6abf467826 sata_mv: optimize IRQ coalescing for 8-port chips
Enable use of the "all ports" IRQ coalescing optimization
for GEN_II / GEN_IIE chips that have dual host-controllers (8-ports).
Currently only the 6081 chip qualifies, but other chips may come along someday.

Rather than each half of the chip having to satisfy a local set of coalescing thresholds,
use of this feature groups all ports together under a single set of thresholds.

Mark Lord 2b748a0a34 sata_mv: implement IRQ coalescing (v2)
Add IRQ coalescing to sata_mv (off by default).

This feature can reduce total interrupt overhead for RAID setups
in some situations, by deferring the interrupt signal until one or both of:

 a) a specified io_count (completed SATA commands) is achieved, or
 b) a specified time interval elapses after an IO completion.

For now, module parameters are used to set the irq_coalescing_io_count
and irq_coalescing_usecs (timeout) globally.  These may eventually
be supplemented with sysfs attributes, so that thresholds can be set
on-the-fly and on a per-chip (or even per-host_controller) basis.

Florian Fainelli 9223d01b2f pata-rb532-cf: platform_get_irq() fix ignored failure
platform_get_irq() can return -ENXIO, but since 'irq' is an
unsigned int, it does not show when the IRQ resource wasn't found.
Make irq an int so that we can use a single variable to test the
platform_get_irq() return value.

Mark Lord d16ab3f633 [libata] sata_mv: Add a new mv_sff_check_status() function to sata_mv.
This is necessary for use with the upcoming "mv_qc_issue_fis()" patch,
but is being added separately here for easier code review.

When using command issue via the "mv_qc_issue_fis()" mechanism,
the initial ATA_BUSY bit does not show in the ATA status (shadow) register.
This can confuse libata!  So here we add a hook to fake ATA_BUSY
for that situation, until the first time a BUSY, DRQ, or ERR bit is seen.

Mark Lord c01e8a2312 [libata] sata_mv: Enable use of (basic) DMA for ATAPI on GEN_IIE chips
This also gets rid of any need for mv_mode_filter().

Using basic DMA on GEN_IIE requires setting an undocumented

bit again when switching back to EDMA mode.

To avoid a performance penalty when switching modes,
we cache the register in port_priv, as already done for other regs.

Tejun Heo a5bfc4714b ahci: drop intx manipulation on msi enable
There's no need to turn off intx explicitly on msi enable.  This is
automatically handled by pci.  Drop it.

This might be needed on machines if the BIOS turns intx off during
boot.  However, there's no evidence of such behavior for ahci and
the only such case seems to be ICH5 PATA according to ata_piix.
Also, given the way ahci operates, it's highly unlikely BIOS ever
disables IRQ for the controller.  However, as this change has slight
possibility of introducing failure, please schedule it for #upstream.

Phil Sutter 6be976e79d pata-rb532-cf: drop custom freeze and thaw
I'm not quite sure what freezing and thawing is used for. Tests showed
that the port is being frozen at initialisation state and thawed right
afterwards, then the functions were not called anymore. Dropping the
complete custom code for handling the frozen state seems to work at
least for a standard use case including mounting a partition, copying
some files in it (in parallel) and finally removing them and unmounting
the partition.

The biggest difference between rb532_pata_data_xfer() and
ata_sff_data_xfer32() is the call to ata_sff_pause() at the end of
rb532_pata_data_xfer() which I suppose to be unnecessary since it works
without. I've also tested using ata_sff_data_xfer() as replacement, but
since we know that the driver supports 32bit IO, using the optimised

This patch fixes the issue by removing offending (and somewhat
duplicate) code from init_phy() routine, and changes _probe()
function to use uec_mdio_bus_name().

Also, since we fully construct phy_bus_id in the _probe() routine,
we no longer need ->phy_address and ->mdio_bus fields in
ucc_geth_info structure.

I wish the patch would be a bit shorter, but it seems like the only
way to fix the issue in a sane way. Luckily, the patch has been
tested with real PHYs and fixed-link, so no further regressions
expected.

David Brownell e3162d381f dm9000: locking bugfix
This fixes a locking bug in the dm9000 driver.  It calls
request_irq() without setting IRQF_DISABLED ... which is
correct for handlers that support IRQ sharing, since that
behavior is not guaranteed for shared IRQs.  However, its
IRQ handler then wrongly assumes that IRQs are blocked.
So the fix just uses the right spinlock primitives in the
IRQ handler.

NOTE:  this is a classic example of the type of bug which
lockdep currently masks by forcibly setting IRQF_DISABLED
on IRQ handlers that did not request that flag.

This fixes a regression introduced when we switched to using the core
pci_set_power_state().  The chip seems to need the state to be written
over and over again until it sticks, so we do that.

Note that the code is a bit blunt, without timeout, etc...  but that's
pretty much because I put back in there the code exactly as it used to
be before the regression.  I still add a call to pci_set_power_state()
at the end so that ACPI gets called appropriately on x86.

Steve Glendinning 44c1d6f99d smsc911x: reset last known duplex and carrier on open
smsc911x_phy_adjust_link is called periodically by the phy layer (as
it's run in polling mode), and it only updates the hardware when it sees
a change in duplex or carrier.  This patch clears the last known values
every time the interface is brought up, instead of only when the module
is loaded.

Without this patch the adjust_link function never updates the hardware
after an ifconfig down; ifconfig up.  On a full duplex link this causes
the tx error counter to increment, even though packets are correctly
transmitted, as the default MAC_CR register setting is for half duplex.

The tx errors are "no carrier" errors, which should be ignored in
full-duplex mode.  When MAC_CR is set to "full duplex" mode they are
correctly ignored by the hardware.

Note that even with this patch the tx error counter can increment if
packets are transmitted between "ifconfig up" and the first phy poll
interval.  An improved solution would use the phy interrupt with phylib,
but I haven't managed to make this work 100% robustly yet.

Handling of IRQ of the SH7763/SH7764 CPU which sh_eth supported was
changed.
This revises it for this change.

Kyle McMartin 69145635d4 tulip: fix crash on iface up with shirq debug
Tulip is currently doing request_irq before it has done its
initialization. This is usually not a problem because it hasn't
enable interrupts yet, but with DEBUG_SHIRQ on, we call the irq handler
when registering the interrupt as a sanity check.

This can result in a NULL ptr dereference, so call tulip_init_ring
before request_irq, and add a free_ring function to do the freeing
now shared with tulip_close.

Tested with a shell loop running ifup, ifdown in a loop a few hundred
times with DEBUG_SHIRQ on.

Pantelis Koukousoulas 4783256ef9 virtio_net: Make virtio_net support carrier detection
Impact: Make NetworkManager work with virtio_net

For now the semantics are simple: There is always carrier.

This allows a seamless experience with e.g., qemu/kvm
where NetworkManager just configures and sets up
everything automagically.

If/when a generally agreed-upon way to control
carrier on/off in the emulator/hypervisor level
emerges, it will be trivial to extend the driver
to support that too, but for now even this 2-liner
makes user experience that much better.

Jay Vosburgh 17d04500e2 bonding: Fix updating of speed/duplex changes
This patch corrects an omission from the following commit:

commit f0c76d6177
Author: Jay Vosburgh <fubar@us.ibm.com>
Date:   Wed Jul 2 18:21:58 2008 -0700

    bonding: refactor mii monitor

	The un-refactored code checked the link speed and duplex of
every slave on every pass; the refactored code did not do so.

	The 802.3ad and balance-alb/tlb modes utilize the speed and
duplex information, and require it to be kept up to date.  This patch
adds a notifier check to perform the appropriate updating when the slave
device speed changes.

Michael Chan 6901031372 bnx2: Fix problem of using wrong IRQ handler.
The MSI-X handler was chosen before the call to pci_enable_msix().
If MSI-X was not available, the wrong MSI-X handler would be used in
INTA mode.  This would cause a screaming interrupt problem because
INTA would not be cleared by the MSI-X handler.

Fixed by assigning MSI-X handler after pci_enable_msix() returns
successfully.  Also update version to 1.9.3.

Thomas Chenault <thomas_chenault@dell.com> helped us find this problem.

The benet driver is now in the proper place in drivers/net/benet, so we
can remove the staging version.
