skge napi->poll() locking bug

2008-03-26T03:42:06+00:00

According to: Documentation/networking/netdevices.txt:


napi->poll:
..........
	Context: softirq
	         will be called with interrupts disabled by netconsole.


napi->poll() could be called either with interrupts enabled
(in softirq context) or disabled (by netconsole), so the irq flag
should be preserved.

Inspired by Ingo's resent forcedeth patch :-)

skge: MTU changing fix

2007-12-01T21:32:30+00:00

The code to change MTU doesn't correctly handle all the chip variations
and requirements for restarting.  On Genesis chips changing MTU would just
cause receiver to hang.
Use a simpler approach of just taking link down/up if needed.

skge: fiber link up/down fix

2007-12-01T21:32:29+00:00

The driver would not work over fibre if other end when down then
came back up (would require reloading driver). The correct way
to manage the link the same way for both TP and fibre.

it happens.

skge: FIFO Ram calculation error

2007-12-01T21:32:29+00:00

The calculation of usable FIFO RAM is wrong in the skge driver.
First, is doesn't take into account the reserved area on the original
SysKonnect Genesis boards. Second it has an off-by-one error because
hw->ports is either 1 or 2.
