amd-xgbe: Fix flow control setting logic

2015-05-15T19:21:43Z

The flow control negotiation logic is flawed and does not properly advertise and process auto-negotiation of the flow control settings. Update the flow control support to properly set the flow control auto-negotiation settings and process the results approrpriately. Signed-off-by: Tom Lendacky Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

amd-xgbe: Move the PHY support into amd-xgbe

2015-05-15T19:21:43Z

The AMD XGBE device is intended to work with a specific integrated PHY and that PHY is not meant to be a standalone PHY for use by other devices. As such this patch removes the phylib driver and implements the PHY support in the amd-xgbe driver (the majority of the logic from the phylib driver is moved into the amd-xgbe driver). Update the driver version to 1.0.1. Signed-off-by: Tom Lendacky Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

amd-xgbe: Add additional stats to be reported via ethtool

2015-05-15T19:21:42Z

Add additional/extended statistics beyond what is provided by the hardware to be reported via ethtool. The new stats focus on the calls into ndo_start_xmit and the napi_poll routine. Signed-off-by: Tom Lendacky Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

amd-xgbe: Allow rx-frames coalescing to be changed anytime

2015-04-09T21:35:37Z

Currently the device must be down in order to update the rx-frames coalescing setting because the interrupt indicator is set in the descriptor data during initialization. Allow this setting to be changed while the device is up by moving the interrupt decision into the descriptor reset function and base the decision off of the supplied descriptor index value.

amd-xgbe: Fix Rx coalescing reporting

2015-03-20T20:33:57Z

The Rx coalescing value is internally converted from usecs to a value that the hardware can use. When reporting the Rx coalescing value, this internal value is converted back to usecs. During the conversion from and back to usecs some rounding occurs. So, for example, when setting an Rx usec of 30, it will be reported as 29. Fix this reporting issue by keeping the original usec value and using that during reporting. Signed-off-by: Tom Lendacky Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

amd-xgbe: Remove Tx coalescing

2015-03-20T20:33:57Z

The Tx coalescing support in the driver was a software implementation for something lacking in the hardware. Using hrtimers, the idea was to trigger a timer interrupt after having queued a packet for transmit. Unfortunately, as the timer value was lowered, the timer expired before the hardware actually did the transmit and so it was racey and resulted in unnecessary interrupts. Remove the Tx coalescing support and hrtimer and replace with a Tx timer that is used as a reclaim timer in case of inactivity. Signed-off-by: Tom Lendacky Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

amd-xgbe-phy: Use the phy_driver flags field

2015-03-20T20:33:56Z

Remove the setting of the transceiver type when retrieving the device settings using ethtool and instead set the transceiver type in the phy_driver structure flags field. Change the transceiver type to be internal, also. Signed-off-by: Tom Lendacky Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ethtool: Support for configurable RSS hash function

2014-12-09T02:07:10Z

This patch extends the set/get_rxfh ethtool-options for getting or setting the RSS hash function. It modifies drivers implementation of set/get_rxfh accordingly. This change also delegates the responsibility of checking whether a modification to a certain RX flow hash parameter is supported to the driver implementation of set_rxfh. User-kernel API is done through the new hfunc bitmask field in the ethtool_rxfh struct. A bit set in the hfunc field is corresponding to an index in the new string-set ETH_SS_RSS_HASH_FUNCS. Got approval from most of the relevant driver maintainers that their driver is using Toeplitz, and for the few that didn't answered, also assumed it is Toeplitz.

amd-xgbe: Add receive side scaling ethtool support

2014-11-06T02:50:12Z

This patch adds support for ethtool receive side scaling (RSS) commands. Support is added to get/set the RSS hash key and the RSS lookup table. Signed-off-by: Tom Lendacky Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

amd-xgbe: Move ring allocation to device open

2014-11-06T02:50:11Z

Move the channel and ring tracking structures allocation to device open. This will allow for future support to vary the number of Tx/Rx queues without unloading the module. Signed-off-by: Tom Lendacky Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
