<title>ethtool: cosmetic: Use ethtool ethtool_cmd_speed API</title>

<id>707394972093e2056e1e8cc39be19cf9bcb3e7b3</id>
<content type='text'>
This updates the network drivers so that they don't access the
ethtool_cmd::speed field directly, but use ethtool_cmd_speed()
instead.

For most of the drivers, these changes are purely cosmetic and don't
fix any problem, such as for those 1GbE/10GbE drivers that indirectly
call their own ethtool get_settings()/mii_ethtool_gset(). The changes
are meant to enforce code consistency and provide robustness with
future larger throughputs, at the expense of a few CPU cycles for each
ethtool operation.

All drivers compiled with make allyesconfig ion x86_64 have been
updated.

Tested: make allyesconfig on x86_64 + e1000e/bnx2x work

This makes sure the ethtool's set_settings() callback of network
drivers don't ignore the 16 most significant bits when ethtool calls
their set_settings().

<title>ethtool: allow custom interval for physical identification</title>
<updated>2011-04-15T04:15:49+00:00</updated>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.tavy.me/linux-stable.git/commit/?id=fce55922f5299a04c0a56b170a141fab34f13465'/>
<id>fce55922f5299a04c0a56b170a141fab34f13465</id>
<content type='text'>
When physical identification of an adapter is done by toggling the
mechanism on and off through software utilizing the set_phys_id operation,
it is done with a fixed duration for both on and off states.  Some drivers
may want to set a custom duration for the on/off intervals.  This patch
changes the API so the return code from the driver's entry point when it
is called with ETHTOOL_ID_ACTIVE can specify the frequency at which to
cycle the on/off states, and updates the drivers that have already been
converted to use the new set_phys_id and use the synchronous method for
identifying an adapter.

The physical identification frequency set in the updated drivers is based
on how it was done prior to the introduction of set_phys_id.

Compile tested only.  Also fixes a compiler warning in sfc.

v2: drivers do not return -EINVAL for ETHOOL_ID_ACTIVE
v3: fold patchset into single patch and cleanup per Ben's feedback

This fixes a couple of build warnings when CONFIG_PM is enabled but
CONFIG_PM_SLEEP is disabled. Applies on top of v2.6.38-rc7 - I know it's
late, but it would be great if v2.6.38 could compile without warnings!
