ethtool: Added support for FW dump

2011-05-13T18:37:28+00:00

Added code to take FW dump via ethtool. Dump level can be controlled via setting the
dump flag. A get function is provided to query the current setting of the dump flag.
Dump data is obtained from the driver via a separate get function.

Changes from v3:
Fixed buffer length issue in ethtool_get_dump_data function.
Updated kernel doc for ethtool_dump struct and get_dump_flag function.

Changes from v2:
Provided separate commands for get flag and data.
Check for minimum of the two buffer length obtained via ethtool and driver and
use that for dump buffer
Pass up the driver return error codes up to the caller.
Added kernel doc comments.

ethtool: remove phys_id from ethtool_ops

2011-05-08T19:49:33+00:00

After that all the upstream kernel drivers now use phys_id,
and the old ethtool_ops interface (phys_id) can be removed.

ethtool: Call ethtool's get/set_settings callbacks with cleaned data

2011-04-29T21:01:30+00:00

This makes sure that when a driver calls the ethtool's
get/set_settings() callback of another driver, the data passed to it
is clean. This guarantees that speed_hi will be zeroed correctly if
the called callback doesn't explicitely set it: we are sure we don't
get a corrupted speed from the underlying driver. We also take care of
setting the cmd field appropriately (ETHTOOL_GSET/SSET).

This applies to dev_ethtool_get_settings(), which now makes sure it
sets up that ethtool command parameter correctly before passing it to
drivers. This also means that whoever calls dev_ethtool_get_settings()
does not have to clean the ethtool command parameter. This function
also becomes an exported symbol instead of an inline.

All drivers visible to make allyesconfig under x86_64 have been
updated.

ethtool: cosmetics: enforce const-ness in ethtool_cmd_speed

2011-04-29T21:01:29+00:00

The 'ep' argument of ethtool_cmd_speed is not altered: advertise it in
protoype. +Indentation fix. Also add comments to advise using the
ethtool_cmd_speed API to get/set the link speed.

ethtool: allow custom interval for physical identification

2011-04-15T04:15:49+00:00

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

net: ethtool support to configure number of channels

2011-04-13T18:31:04+00:00

Ethtool support to configure RX, TX and other channels. combined field
in struct ethtool_channels to reflect set of channel (RX, TX or other).
Other channel can be link interrupts, SR-IOV coordination etc.

ETHTOOL_GCHANNELS will report max and current number of RX channels,
max and current number of TX channels, max and current number of other channel
or max and current number of combined channel.

Number of channel can be modify upto max number of channel through
ETHTOOL_SCHANNELS command.

Ben Hutchings:
o define 'combined' and 'other' types.  Most multiqueue drivers pair up RX and TX
  queues so that most channels combine RX and TX work.
o Please could you use a kernel-doc comment to describe the structure.

v3 ethtool: add ntuple flow specifier data to network flow classifier

2011-04-11T20:20:49+00:00

This change is meant to add an ntuple data extensions to the rx network flow
classification specifiers.  The idea is to allow ntuple to be displayed via
the network flow classification interface.

The first patch had some left over stuff from the original flow extension
flags I had added.  That bit is removed in this patch.

The second had some left over comments that stated we ignored bits in the
masks when we actually match them.

This work is based on input from Ben Hutchings.
