2011-08-11sfc: Move the Solarflare driversJeff Kirsher
Moves the Solarflare drivers into drivers/net/ethernet/sfc/ and make the necessary Kconfig and Makefile changes. CC: Steve Hodgson <shodgson@solarflare.com> CC: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com>
2011-04-12sfc: Use rmb() to ensure reads occur in orderNeil Turton
Enabling write-combining may also enable read reordering. The BIU is only guaranteed to read from a 128-bit CSR or 64-bit SRAM word when the host reads from its lowest address; otherwise the BIU may use the latched value. Therefore we need to reinstate the read memory barriers after the first read operation for each CSR or SRAM word. Signed-off-by; Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com>
2011-03-04sfc: Use write-combining to reduce TX latencyBen Hutchings
Based on work by Neil Turton <nturton@solarflare.com> and Kieran Mansley <kmansley@solarflare.com>. The BIU has now been verified to handle 3- and 4-dword writes within a single 128-bit register correctly. This means we can enable write- combining and only insert write barriers between writes to distinct registers. This has been observed to save about 0.5 us when pushing a TX descriptor to an empty TX queue. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com>

2010-12-06sfc: Remove locking from implementation of efx_writeo_paged()Ben Hutchings
It is not necessary to serialise writes to the paged 128-bit registers. However, if we don't then we must always write the last dword separately, not as part of a qword write. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com>

2010-12-06sfc: Expand/correct comments on collector behaviour and function usageBen Hutchings
Document exactly which registers and functions have special behaviour, and why races on writes to descriptor pointers are safe. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com>
2010-06-25sfc: Implement message level controlBen Hutchings
Replace EFX_ERR() with netif_err(), EFX_INFO() with netif_info(), EFX_LOG() with netif_dbg() and EFX_TRACE() and EFX_REGDUMP() with netif_vdbg(). Replace EFX_ERR_RL(), EFX_INFO_RL() and EFX_LOG_RL() using explicit calls to net_ratelimit(). Implement the ethtool operations to get and set message level flags, and add a 'debug' module parameter for the initial value.

2009-10-24sfc: Rename register I/O header and functions used by both Falcon and SienaBen Hutchings
While we're at it, use type suffixes of 'd', 'q' and 'o', consistent with register type names. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
