altera_tse: Fixes in NAPI and interrupt handling paths

2015-02-23T23:07:36Z

Incorrect NAPI polling caused WARNING at net/core/dev.c net_rx_action. Some stability issues were also seen at high throughput and system load before this patch. This patch contains several changes in altera_tse_main.c: - tse_rx() is fixed to not process more than `limit` frames - tse_poll() is refactored to match NAPI logic - only received frames are counted for return value - removed bogus condition `(rxcomplete >= budget || txcomplete > 0)` - replace by: if (rxcomplete < budget) -> call __napi_complete and enable irq - altera_isr() - replace spin_lock_irqsave() by spin_lock() - we are in isr - use spinlocks just over irq manipulation, not over __napi_schedule - reset IRQ first, then disable and schedule napi This is a cleaned up resubmission from Vlastimil's recent submission.

altera_tse: Correct typo in obtaining tx_fifo_depth from devicetree

2015-02-23T23:07:35Z

This patch corrects a typo in the way tx_fifo_depth is read from the devicetree. This patch was submitted by Vlastimil about a week ago, and is now cleaned up and resubmitted. Signed-off-by: Vlastimil Setka Signed-off-by: Vince Bridgers Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

Altera TSE: Add missing phydev

2015-01-02T20:45:10Z

Altera network device doesn't come up after ifconfig eth0 down ifconfig eth0 up The reason behind is clearing priv->phydev during tse_shutdown(). The phydev is not restored back at tse_open(). Resubmiting as to follow Tobias Klauser suggestion. phy_start/phy_stop are called on each ifup/ifdown and phy_disconnect is called once during the module removal.

net: ethernet: altera: drop owner assignment from platform_drivers

2014-10-20T14:21:04Z

A platform_driver does not need to set an owner, it will be populated by the driver core. Signed-off-by: Wolfram Sang

Altera TSE: Add support for no PHY

2014-10-06T01:39:40Z

This patch avoids PHY and MDIO probing if no PHY chip is present. This is the case mainly in optical links where there is no need for PHY chip, and therefore no need of MDIO. In this scenario Ethernet MAC is directly connected to an optical module through an external SFP transceiver. Signed-off-by: Walter Lozano Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

Altera TSE: Move PHY get addr and MDIO create

2014-10-06T01:39:40Z

Move PHY get addr and MDIO create to a new function to improve readability and make it easier to avoid its usage. This will be useful for example in the case where there is no PHY chip. Signed-off-by: Walter Lozano Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: ethernet: Remove superfluous ether_setup after alloc_etherdev

2014-10-03T22:31:40Z

There is no need to call ether_setup after alloc_ethdev since it was already called there. Follow commits c706471b2601 ("net: axienet: remove unnecessary ether_setup after alloc_etherdev") and 3c87dcbfb36c ("net: ll_temac: Remove unnecessary ether_setup after alloc_etherdev") and fix the pattern in all remaining ethernet drivers.

Conflicts: drivers/net/bonding/bond_alb.c drivers/net/ethernet/altera/altera_msgdma.c drivers/net/ethernet/altera/altera_sgdma.c net/ipv6/xfrm6_output.c Several cases of overlapping changes. The xfrm6_output.c has a bug fix which overlaps the renaming of skb->local_df to skb->ignore_df. In the Altera TSE driver cases, the register access cleanups in net-next overlapped with bug fixes done in net. Similarly a bug fix to send ALB packets in the bonding driver using the right source address overlaps with cleanups in net-next. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

Altera TSE: Disable Multicast filtering to workaround problem

2014-05-15T20:46:46Z

This patch disables multicast hash filtering if present in the hardware and uses promiscuous mode instead until the problem with multicast filtering has been debugged, integrated and tested. Signed-off-by: Vince Bridgers Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

Altera TSE: Fix sparse errors and warnings

2014-05-15T20:46:46Z

This patch fixes the many sparse errors and warnings contained in the initial submission of the Altera Triple Speed Ethernet driver, and a few minor cppcheck warnings. Changes are tested on ARM and NIOS2 example designs, and compile tested against multiple architectures. Typical issues addressed were as follows: altera_tse_ethtool.c:136:19: warning: incorrect type in argument 1 (different address spaces) altera_tse_ethtool.c:136:19: expected void const volatile [noderef] *addr altera_tse_ethtool.c:136:19: got unsigned int * ... altera_sgdma.c:129:31: warning: cast removes address space of expression Signed-off-by: Vince Bridgers Signed-off-by: David S.
