[PATCH] chelsio: working NAPI

2006-12-11T14:51:07+00:00

This driver tries to enable/disable NAPI at runtime, but
does so in an unsafe manner, and the NAPI interrupt handling is
a mess. Replace it with a compile time selected NAPI implementation.

[PATCH] chelsio: add support for other 10G boards

2006-12-02T05:24:49+00:00

Add support for other versions of the 10G Chelsio boards.
This is basically a port of the vendor driver with the
TOE features removed.

[PATCH] Atmel MACB ethernet driver

2006-12-02T05:12:04+00:00

Driver for the Atmel MACB on-chip ethernet module.

Tested on AVR32/AT32AP7000/ATSTK1000. I've heard rumours that it works
with AT91SAM9260 as well, and it may be possible to share some code with
the at91_ether driver for AT91RM9200.

Hardware documentation can be found in the AT32AP7000 data sheet,
which can be downloaded from

http://www.atmel.com/dyn/products/datasheets.asp?family_id=682

Changes since previous version:
  * Probe for PHY ID instead of depending on it being provided through
    platform_data.
  * Grab initial ethernet address from the MACB registers instead
    of depending on platform_data.
  * Set MII/RMII mode correctly.

These changes are mostly about making the driver more compatible with
the at91 infrastructure.

[PATCH] Add tsi108/9 On Chip Ethernet device driver support

2006-12-02T05:12:03+00:00

Add tsi108/9 on chip Ethernet controller driver support.

The driver code collects the feedback of previous posting form the mailing
list and gives the update.

MPC7448HPC2 platform in arch/powerpc uses tsi108 bridge.

The following is a brief description of the Ethernet controller:

The Tsi108/9 Ethernet Controller connects Switch Fabric to two independent
Gigabit Ethernet ports,E0 and E1.  It uses a single Management interface to
manage the two physical connection devices (PHYs).  Each Ethernet port has
its own statistics monitor that tracks and reports key interface
statistics.  Each port supports a 256-entry hash table for address
filtering.  In addition, each port is bridged to the Switch Fabric through
a 2-Kbyte transmit FIFO and a 4-Kbyte Receive FIFO.

Each Ethernet port also has a pair of internal Ethernet DMA channels to
support the transmit and receive data flows.  The Ethernet DMA channels use
descriptors set up in memory, the memory map of the device, and access via
the Switch Fabric.  The Ethernet Controller’s DMA arbiter handles
arbitration for the Switch Fabric.  The Controller also has a register bus
interface for register accesses and status monitor control.

The PMD (Physical Media Device) interface operates in MII, GMII, or TBI
modes.  The MII mode is used for connecting with 10 or 100 Mbit/s PMDs.
The GMII and TBI modes are used to connect with Gigabit PMDs.  Internal
data flows to and from the Ethernet Controller through the Switch Fabric.
Each

Ethernet port uses its transmit and receive DMA channels to manage data
flows through buffer descriptors that are predefined by the system (the
descriptors can exist anywhere in the system memory map).  These
descriptors are data structures that point to buffers filled with data
ready to transmit over Ethernet, or they point to empty buffers ready to
receive data from Ethernet.

[PATCH] drivers/net: SAA9730: Fix build error

2006-11-30T11:00:35+00:00

Confusingly NET_PCI is also set for for non-PCI EISA configurations where
building this driver will result in a build error due to a reference to
pci_release_regions.

While at it, remove the EXPERIMENTAL - in all its uglyness and despite
the sincerest attempts of the buggy hardware the driver is known to work.
Also limit the driver to the Atlas board - the only known system to ever
use the SAA9730 before Phillips ended the short live of the SAA9730.
