net: arc: Fix module autoload for OF platform driver

2015-09-21T23:08:20Z

This platform driver has a OF device ID table but the OF module alias information is not created so module autoloading won't work. Signed-off-by: Luis de Bethencourt Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

drivers/net: remove all references to obsolete Ethernet-HOWTO

2015-06-23T13:50:35Z

This howto made sense in the 1990s when users had to manually configure ISA cards with jumpers or vendor utilities, but with the implementation of PCI it became increasingly less and less relevant, to the point where it has been well over a decade since I last updated it. And there is no value in anyone else taking over updating it either. However the references to it continue to spread as boiler plate text from one Kconfig file into the next. We are not doing end users any favours by pointing them at this old document, so lets kill it with fire, once and for all, to hopefully stop any further spread. No code is changed in this commit, just Kconfig help text. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: arc_emac: prevent reuse of unreclaimed tx descriptors

2014-09-12T21:18:03Z

This patch changes the logic in tx path to ensure that tx descriptors are reused for transmission only after they have been reclaimed by arc_emac_tx_clean(). Signed-off-by: Beniamino Galvani Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: arc_emac: enable tx interrupts

2014-09-12T21:17:49Z

In the current implementation the cleaning of tx ring is done by the NAPI poll handler, which is scheduled after rx interrupts. Thus, in absence of received packets the reclaim of used tx buffers is never executed, blocking further transmission. This can be easily reproduced starting the transmission of a UDP flow with iperf, which blocks almost immediately because skbs are not returned to the stack and the socket send buffer becomes full. The patch enables tx interrupts so that the tx reclaim is scheduled after completed transmissions. Signed-off-by: Beniamino Galvani Reviewed-by: Florian Fainelli Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: ethernet: arc: Don't free Rockchip resources before disconnect from phy

2014-09-10T20:03:00Z

Free resources before being disconnected from phy and calling core driver is wrong and should not happen. It avoids a delay of 4-5s caused by the timeout of phy_disconnect(). Signed-off-by: Romain Perier Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ethernet: arc: Add support for Rockchip SoC layer device tree bindings

2014-09-10T00:29:59Z

This patch defines a platform glue layer for Rockchip SoCs which support arc-emac driver. It ensures that regulator for the rmii is on before trying to connect to the ethernet controller. It applies right speed and mode changes to the grf when ethernet settings change. Signed-off-by: Romain Perier Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ethernet: arc: remove unused dev

Remove unused 'dev' variable from arc_emac_remove(), since it's not being used any more. Signed-off-by: Jingoo Han Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ethernet: arc: Add support for specific SoC layer device tree bindings

2014-08-27T23:40:26Z

Some platforms have special bank registers which might be used to select the correct clock or the right mode for Media Indepent Interface controllers. Sometimes, it is also required to activate vcc regulators in the right order to supply the ethernet controller at the right time. This patch is an architecture refactoring of the arc-emac device driver. It adds a new software design which allows to add specific platform glue layer. Each platform has now its own module which performs custom initialization and remove for the target and then calls to the core driver.
