2009-08-20ibm_newemac: emac_close() needs to call netif_carrier_off()Petri Gynther
When ibm_newemac netdev instance is shutdown with "ifconfig down", the netdev interface does not go properly down. netif_carrier_ok() keeps returning TRUE even after "ifconfig down". The problem can be seen when ibm_newemac instances are slaves of a bonding interface. The bonding interface code uses netif_carrier_ok() to determine the link status of its slaves. When ibm_newemac slave is shutdown with "ifconfig down", the bonding interface won't detect any link status change because netif_carrier_ok() keeps returning TRUE.

2009-03-21powerpc 4xx EMAC driver: device name reported on timeout is not correctMikhail Zolotaryov
Hi, IBM EMAC driver performs device reset (drivers/net/ibm_newemac/core.c: emac_probe() -> emac_init_phy() -> emac_reset()) before registering appropriate net_device (emac_probe() -> register_netdev()), so net_device name contains raw format string during EMAC reset ("eth%d"). If the case of reset timeout, emac_report_timeout_error() function is called to report an error. The problem is this function uses net_device name to report device related, which is not correct, as a result in the kernel log buffer we see: eth%d: reset timeout The solution is to print device_node full_name instead. After applying the patch proposed, error string is like the following: /plb/opb/ethernet@ef600e00: reset timeout Signed-off-by: Mikhail Zolotaryov <lebon@lebon.org.ua> Acked-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

This adds an init_dummy_netdev() function that gets a network device structure (allocation and lifetime entirely under caller's control) and initialize the minimum amount of fields so it can be used to schedule NAPI polls without registering a full blown interface. This is to be used by drivers that need to tie several hardware interfaces to a single NAPI poll scheduler due to HW limitations. It also updates the ibm_newemac driver to use that, this fixing the oops on 2.6.29 due to passing NULL as "dev" to netif_napi_add() Symbol is exported GPL only a I don't think we want binary drivers doing that sort of acrobatics (if we want them at all).

2008-09-30ibm_newemac: MAL support for PowerPC 405EZJosh Boyer
The PowerPC 405EZ SoC has some differences in the interrupt layout and handling for the MAL. The SERR, TXDE, and RXDE interrupts are OR'd into a single interrupt. Also, due to the possibility for interrupt coalescing, the TXEOB and RXEOB interrupts require an interrupt bit to be cleared in the ICINTSTAT SDR. This sets the proper MAL feature bits for 405EZ boards, and adds a common shared handler for SERR, TXDE, and RXDE. The defines for the ICINTSTAT DCR are added to the proper header file as well. This has been adapted from code originally written by Stefan Roese.

2008-09-30ibm_newemac: Introduce mal_has_featureJosh Boyer
There are some PowerPC SoCs that do odd things with the MAL handling. In order to accommodate them, we need to introduce a feature mechanism that is similar to the existing emac_has_feature function. This adds a feature variable to the mal_instance structure, and adds a mal_has_feature function. Two features are defined and are guarded by Kconfig options that are selected by the affected platforms. MAL_FTR_CLEAR_ICINSTAT is used for platforms that need to clear the interrupt bits in the ICINTSTAT SDR for txeob/rxeob. This is common on MAL implementations that have interrupt coalescing. MAL_FTR_COMMON_ERR_INT is used for platforms that have SERR, TXDE, and RXDE OR'd into a single interrupt bit.

2008-07-09ibm_newemac: Parameterize EMAC Multicast Match HandlingGrant Erickson
Various instances of the EMAC core have varying: 1) number of address match slots, 2) width of the registers for handling address match slots, 3) number of registers for handling address match slots and 4) base offset for those registers. As the driver stands today, it assumes that all EMACs have 4 IAHT and GAHT 32-bit registers, starting at offset 0x30 from the register base, with only 16-bits of each used for a total of 64 match slots. The 405EX(r) and 460EX now use the EMAC4SYNC core rather than the EMAC4 core. This core has 8 IAHT and GAHT registers, starting at offset 0x80 from the register base, with ALL 32-bits of each used for a total of 256 match slots. This adds a new compatible device tree entry "emac4sync" and a new, related feature flag "EMAC_FTR_EMAC4SYNC" along with a series of macros and inlines which supply the appropriate parameterized value based on the presence or absence of the EMAC4SYNC feature. The code has further been reworked where appropriate to use those macros and inlines. In addition, the register size passed to ioremap is now taken from the device tree: c4 for EMAC4SYNC cores 74 for EMAC4 cores 70 for EMAC cores rather than sizeof (emac_regs). Finally, the device trees have been updated with the appropriate compatible entries and resource sizes. This has been tested on an AMCC Haleakala board such that: 1) inbound ICMP requests to 'haleakala.local' via MDNS from both Mac OS X 10.4.11 and Ubuntu 8.04 systems as well as 2) outbound ICMP requests from 'haleakala.local' to those same systems in the '.local' domain via MDNS now work.

2008-03-17NEWEMAC: fix support for pause packetsPravin M. Bathija
Problem Description and Fix --------------------------- When a pause packet(with destination as reserved Multicast address) is received by the EMAC hardware to control the flow of frames being transmitted by it, it is dropped by the hardware unless the reserved Multicast address is hashed in to the GAHT[1-4] registers. This code fix adds the default reserved multicast address to the GAHT[1-4] registers in the EMAC(s) present on the chip. The flow control with Pause packets will only work if the following register bits are programmed in EMAC: EMACx_MR1[APP] = 1 EMACx_RMR[BAE] = 1 EMACx_RMR[MAE] = 1 Behavior that may be observed in a running system ------------------------------------------------- A host transferring data from a PPC based system may send a Pause packet to the PPC EMAC requesting it to slow down the flow of packets. If the default reserved multicast MAC address is not programmed into the GAHT[1-4] registers this Pause packet will be dropped by PPC EMAC and no Flow Control will be done. Signed-off-by: Pravin M.
