tilegx: request_irq with a non-null device name

2012-11-16T06:40:41+00:00

This patch simply makes the tilegx net driver call request_irq with a
non-null name. It makes the output in /proc/interrupts more obvious, but
also helps tools that don't expect to find null there.

tilegx: fix some issues in the SW TSO support

2012-10-26T07:50:08+00:00

This change correctly computes the header length and data length in
the fragments to avoid a bug where we would end up with extremely
slow performance.  Also adopt use of skb_frag_size() accessor.

tilegx net driver: handle payload data not in frags

2012-07-18T19:03:00+00:00

The original driver implementation assumed that for TSO, all the
payload data would be in the frags.  This isn't always true; change
the driver to support payload data at skb->data between
"skb_transport_offset(skb) + tcp_hdrlen(skb)" and "skb->hdr_len",
followed by the data in the frags.

tilegx network driver: initial support

2012-06-12T00:01:26+00:00

This change adds support for the tilegx network driver based on the
GXIO IORPC support in the tilegx software stack, using the on-chip
mPIPE packet processing engine.

drivers/net: Convert compare_ether_addr to ether_addr_equal

2012-05-11T03:33:01+00:00

Use the new bool function ether_addr_equal to add
some clarity and reduce the likelihood for misuse
of compare_ether_addr for sorting.

drivers/net/ethernet/tile: fix netdev_alloc_skb() bombing

2012-04-02T17:17:37+00:00

Commit dae2e9f430c46c29e3f771110094bd3da3625aa4 changed dev_alloc_skb()
to netdev_alloc_skb(), adding a dev pointer, but erroneously used "->"
instead of "." for a struct member when accessing the dev pointer.
This change fixes the build breakage.

tilepro ethernet driver: fix a few minor issues

2012-04-02T16:14:13+00:00

This commit fixes a number of issues seen with the driver:

- Improve handling of return credits to the hardware shim
- Use skb_frag_size() appropriately
- Fix driver so it works properly with netpoll for console over UDP
