forcedeth: disable msix

There seems to be an issue when both MSI-X is enabled and NAPI is
configured. This patch disables MSI-X until the issue is root caused.

This patch contains a fix that implements proper communication with the
sideband management unit. Also, it makes sure that the speed is
correctly set for gigabit phys in the case where sideband mgmt unit
initialized the phy. Refer to bug #7684 for more details.

netpoll: drivers must not enable IRQ unconditionally in their NAPI handler

2006-12-26T21:24:11+00:00

net/core/netpoll.c::netpoll_send_skb() calls the poll handler when
it is available. As netconsole can be used from almost any context,
IRQ must not be enabled blindly in the NAPI handler of a driver which
supports netpoll.

b57bd06655a028aba7b92e1c19c2093e7fcfb341 fixed the issue for the
8139too.c driver.

[PATCH] forcedeth: add recoverable error support

2006-12-02T05:12:01+00:00

This patch adds support to recover from a previously fatal MAC error. In
the past the MAC would be hung on an internal fatal error. On new
chipsets, the MAC has the ability to enter a non-fatal state and allow
the driver to re-init it.

[PATCH] forcedeth: add mgmt unit support

2006-12-02T05:12:01+00:00

This patch adds support for the mgmt unit in certain chipsets. The MAC
and the mgmt unit share the PHY and therefore proper intialization
procedures are needed for them to maintain coexistense.

[PATCH] forcedeth: power management support

2006-12-02T05:11:55+00:00

Tobias Diedrich  sayeth:

Vanilla forcedeth doesn't seem to support suspend and an ifdown/up-cycle is
needed to get it working again after suspend.  Francois Romieu's "Awfully
experimental" patch is working just fine for me (with message signalled
interrupts disabled) and has survived quite a few suspend/resume cycles.

So I'd very much like to see (at least partial, with msi disabled)
suspend support for forcedeth in mainline.
