reset.

[ Bump driver version and release date -DaveM ]

BNX2X: prevent ethtool from setting port type

2008-03-23T10:07:45+00:00

On 10GBaseT boards setting the type to TP will cause the driver to try
to configure 1GBaseT.
Since there are currently no boards that support setting of the port
type, disable this for now.

[BNX2X]: Fix Xmit bugs

2008-02-28T19:57:55+00:00

Several endianity corrections in start_xmit()

Fixed TSO bug where packets were missing the TCP flags.

[BNX2X]: fix slowpath races and locking

2008-02-28T19:56:57+00:00

Fixed locking between fastpath and slowpath operations.

Corrected order of traffic disabling to prevent race when going down
under traffic.

- first have the microcode drop all incoming packets
- then do the slowpath stuff
- only then reset the MAC

Got rid of in_reset_task.

Remove_one() and friends would deference a null pointer if init_one
failed.

[BNX2X]: fix HW attentions and error handling

2008-02-28T19:55:53+00:00

Some of the HW attentions, used to indicate an error were not properly
acked.

This will cause the driver to endlessly receive interrupts when such
an error happens.

Had to break the code into smaller chunks because it got too nested.

[BNX2X]: fix MSI-X/INT#A errata

2008-02-28T19:54:54+00:00

Errata A0.158 workaround. 

Running in INT#A mode after running with MSI-X fails due to a PCI core
bug.

[BNX2X]: correct statistics

2008-02-28T19:54:03+00:00

Errors were summed improperly, some stats were missing.

[BNX2X]: Correct RX filtering and MC configuration

2008-02-28T19:53:13+00:00

The configuration of RX filtering needed the following corrections:

Drop flags need to be set per Rx queue.

Have to tell the microcode to collect drop stats, and properly wait
for them to complete when going down.

Sometimes we failed to detect proper completion due to a logical error
in the wait loop.

[BNX2X]: Correct Link management

2008-02-28T19:51:50+00:00

Properly protect PHY access between two devices on the same board with
a HW lock.

Use GPIO to clear all previous configurations before changing link
parameters.

Shut down the external PHY in case of fan failure.

Reducing the MDC/MDIO clock to 2.5MHz due to problems with some
devices.

Resolve the flow control response according to autoneg with external
PHY.

Unmasking all PHY interrupts in single write to prevent a race in the
interrupts order.

LASI indication fixes to work with peculiarities of PHYs.

Disable MAC RX to avoid a HW bug when closing the MAC under traffic.

Disable parallel detection on HiGig due to HW limitation.

Updating the shared memory structure to work with the current
bootcode.
