Add 5708 copper and serdes basic support, including 2.5 Gbps support
on 5708 serdes. SPEED_2500 is also added to ethtool.h

Attached is kernel patch for UDP Fragmentation Offload (UFO) feature.
1. This patch incorporate the review comments by Jeff Garzik.
2. Renamed USO as UFO (UDP Fragmentation Offload)
3. udp sendfile support with UFO
This patches uses scatter-gather feature of skb to generate large UDP
datagram. Below is a "how-to" on changes required in network device
driver to use the UFO interface.
UDP Fragmentation Offload (UFO) Interface:
-------------------------------------------
UFO is a feature wherein the Linux kernel network stack will offload the
IP fragmentation functionality of large UDP datagram to hardware. This
will reduce the overhead of stack in fragmenting the large UDP datagram to
MTU sized packets
1) Drivers indicate their capability of UFO using
dev->features |= NETIF_F_UFO | NETIF_F_HW_CSUM | NETIF_F_SG
NETIF_F_HW_CSUM is required for UFO over ipv6.
2) UFO packet will be submitted for transmission using driver xmit routine.
UFO packet will have a non-zero value for
"skb_shinfo(skb)->ufo_size"
skb_shinfo(skb)->ufo_size will indicate the length of data part in each IP
fragment going out of the adapter after IP fragmentation by hardware.
skb->data will contain MAC/IP/UDP header and skb_shinfo(skb)->frags[]
contains the data payload. The skb->ip_summed will be set to CHECKSUM_HW
indicating that hardware has to do checksum calculation. Hardware should
compute the UDP checksum of complete datagram and also ip header checksum of
each fragmented IP packet.
For IPV6 the UFO provides the fragment identification-id in
skb_shinfo(skb)->ip6_frag_id. The adapter should use this ID for generating
IPv6 fragments.

This patch adds a new field to net device to hold the permanent
hardware address, and adds a new generic ethtool_op function to
get that address.

Several ethernet drivers have been broken by the ethtool support because
the ioctl code used to power the interface up and down as needed. Rather
than add this to each driver call Jeff Garzik suggested we add hooks
for before/after ethtool processing.
This patch implements them which makes fixing the PM stuff easier,
as the epic100 patch to follow will show. It also cleans up the
via-velocity driver pm/ethtool logic a great deal. As per Jeff's
request the before handler is allowed to fail the operation.

Finally got around to adding ethtool_ops to e100-3.0.x. I found a bug
with get_eeprom() and it seems to work best if we add get_eeprom_len() to
the ops list. Also moved check for offest + len < size into ethtool.c.
I was able to test [GS]EEPROM, PHYS_ID, GSTATS, GSTRINGS, and TEST, and
everything looks good.
Should I send same for 2.4?

[ GregKH has already done this is USB and PCI core. ]
From: "Warren A. Layton" <zeevon@debian.org>
Based on a request from Matthew Wilcox, convert instances of
pci_dev->slot_name to use pci_name() instead:
"In order to support PCI Domains, we have to stop using slot_name.
It's related to driver model transition too since pci_dev->slot_name
was redundant with pci_dev->dev.bus_id. So I introduced the inline
function pci_name(). Now there's about 300-400 places in the tree
that're using slot_name which need to be converted to use pci_name().
once that's done, we can remove the slot_name pointer in pci_dev and
save a (void *) per pci_dev."

* Add TSO get/set command to ethtool interface. Applies to both 2.4/2.5.
Ethtool application patch sent under separate cover.
|
|
dev_ioctl already checks capable(CAP_NET_ADMIN) for SOICETHTOOL, so
privileged reference are not necessary.
|
|
Add 10GbE support for ethtool.
|
|
This fixes:
tranceiver -> transceiver
Some function names had this misspelling (e.g. e100_reset_tranceiver)
and I changed them, but I haven't tested it.
Fixes 34 occurrences in all.
