2010-02-19sfc: SFE4002/SFN4112F: Widen temperature and voltage tolerancesBen Hutchings
The temperature and voltage limits currently set on these boards are too conservative and will cause the driver to stop the net device erroneously in some systems. Based on a review of the chip datasheets and advice from the designer of these boards: - Raise the maximum board temperatures to the specified maximum ambient temperatures for their PHYs plus the expected temperature bias of the board - Raise the maximum controller temperature to 90 degrees - Lower the minimum temperatures to 0 degrees - Widen the voltage tolerances to at least +/- 10% Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

This driver has been mostly rewritten since Michael Brown's initial work, so swap the order of the authors. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2009-11-29sfc: Refactor link configurationBen Hutchings
Refactor PHY, MAC and NIC configuration operations so that the existing link configuration can be re-pushed with: efx->phy_op->reconfigure(efx); efx->mac_op->reconfigure(efx); and a new configuration with: efx->nic_op->reconfigure_port(efx); (plus locking and error-checking). We have not held the link settings in software (aside from flow control), and have relied on asking the hardware what they are. This is a problem because in some cases the hardware may no longer be in a state to tell us. In particular, if an entire multi-port board is reset through one port, the driver bindings to other ports have no chance to save settings before recovering. We only actually need to keep track of the autonegotiation settings, so add an ethtool advertising mask to struct efx_nic, initialise it in PHY init and update it as necessary. Remove now-unneeded uses of efx_phy_op::{get,set}_settings() and struct ethtool_cmd. Much of this was done by Steve Hodgson <shodgson@solarflare.com>.

2009-11-26sfc: Simplify XMAC link pollingBen Hutchings
From: Steve Hodgson <shodgson@solarflare.com> Only the XMAC on Falcon needs help from the driver to poll and reset the MAC-PHY link (XAUI); GMII is a simple parallel bus and on later NICs firmware takes care of the XAUI link. Also, an XMAC interrupt currently schedules a work item which simply clears a flag (efx_nic::mac_up) to be checked by the regular monitor (or the next link reconfiguration, if that is sooner). Rename the flag to xmac_poll_required, changing its sense. Remove the needless indirection and just set the flag immediately. Call falcon_xmac_poll() directly where required. Add a new generic operation mac_op::check_fault to check the link outside of regular monitoring, as required during self-tests. (Note that this leaves us with an unused work item, but we will immediately have another use for it.) Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2009-11-26sfc: Split MAC stats DMA initiation and completionBen Hutchings
From: Steve Hodgson <shodgson@solarflare.com> Currently we initiate MAC stats DMA and busy-wait for completion when stats are requested. We can improve on this with a periodic timer to initiate and poll for stats, and opportunistically poll when stats are requested. Since efx_nic::stats_disable_count and efx_stats_{disable,enable}() are Falcon-specific, rename them and move them accordingly.

2009-11-24sfc: Make board information explicitly Falcon-specificBen Hutchings
Rename struct efx_board to struct falcon_board. Introduce and use inline function to look up board info from struct efx_nic, in preparation for moving it. Move board init and fini calls into NIC probe and remove functions. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-11-24sfc: Rename efx_board::init_leds to init_phy and use for SFN4111TBen Hutchings
efx_board::init_leds was introduced as a second stage of initialisation because of the inter-dependency between the board and PHY. We want to move board initialisation into NIC probing, which is too early to use MDIO, so SFN4111T initialisation also needs to be split.

2009-11-24sfc: Use a single blink implementationBen Hutchings
Only some PHYs have firmware support for a LED blink mode, so we currently blink the others in a timer function. Since all PHYs have simple on and off modes, we don't gain anything by using multiple blink implementations. Also, since we have a process context there is no need to use a timer.

2009-10-24sfc: Rename 'xfp' file and functions to reflect realityBen Hutchings
