* net: Remove redundant NAPI functionsBen Hutchings2009-01-211-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | Following the removal of the unused struct net_device * parameter from the NAPI functions named *netif_rx_* in commit 908a7a1, they are exactly equivalent to the corresponding *napi_* functions and are therefore redundant.

* net: Remove unused netdev arg from some NAPI interfaces.Neil Horman2008-12-221-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | When the napi api was changed to separate its 1:1 binding to the net_device struct, the netif_rx_[prep|schedule|complete] api failed to remove the now vestigual net_device structure parameter.

| | | | | | | | | | | | This patch moves neigh_setup and hard_start_xmit into the network device ops structure. For bisection, fix all the previously converted drivers as well.

* drivers/net: Kill now superfluous ->last_rx stores.David S. Miller2008-11-031-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The generic packet receive code takes care of setting netdev->last_rx when necessary, for the sake of the bonding ARP monitor. Drivers need not do it any more. Some cases had to be skipped over because the drivers were making use of the ->last_rx value themselves. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

* 8139x: reduce message severity on driver overlapStephen Hemminger2008-10-221-3/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The 8139 drivers are a source of error messages that confuse users. Since this device can not be disambiguated by normal PCI device id's two drivers match the same info. But the module utilities seem to correctly handle this overlap, they try one driver, then if that doesn't load try the other. Therefore there is no need for a message to be logged with error level severity, just using info level instead. Can't be completely silent because user might have configure one driver and forgot the other one.

* 8139too: [cosmetic] fix incorrect register for flash-romMats Erik Andersson2008-09-241-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I would like to submit a correction to the driver drivers/net/8139too.c, which in no way changes the compiled driver, but does change the value of a previously incorrect value for the configuration register address of Flash PROM on the network processor rtl8139C. This corrected value is in accordance with the datasheet for rtl8139C, and in addition this new value is indeed used in other functional drivers that use this adapter for programming a Flash memory chip in situ. But as said, the two new constants are never referenced in the driver maintained by you: they are only informational and correct!

* [NET]: Make NAPI polling independent of struct net_device objects.Stephen Hemminger2007-10-101-25/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Several devices have multiple independant RX queues per net device, and some have a single interrupt doorbell for several queues. In either case, it's easier to support layouts like that if the structure representing the poll is independant from the net device itself. The signature of the ->poll() call back goes from: int foo_poll(struct net_device *dev, int *budget) to int foo_poll(struct napi_struct *napi, int budget) The caller is returned the number of RX packets processed (or the number of "NAPI credits" consumed if you want to get abstract). The callee no longer messes around bumping dev->quota, *budget, etc. because that is all handled in the caller upon return. The napi_struct is to be embedded in the device driver private data structures. Furthermore, it is the driver's responsibility to disable all NAPI instances in it's ->stop() device close handler. Since the napi_struct is privatized into the driver's private data structures, only the driver knows how to get at all of the napi_struct instances it may have per-device.

This exposes some issues where drivers where reading a word or a dword for the revision number, and adding useless error-handling around the read. Some drivers even just read it for no purpose of all. In devices where the revision ID is being copied over and used in what appears to be the equivalent of hotpath, I have left the copy code and the cached copy as not to influence the driver's performance.

* IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlersDavid Howells2006-10-051-5/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the Linux kernel. The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack space and code to pass it around. On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path (ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()). Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do something different with the variable. On FRV, for instance, the address is maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception handling. Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down through up to twenty or so layers of functions. Consider a USB character device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller. A character device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing. I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386. I've runtested the main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers. I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile with minimal configurations. This will affect all archs. Mostly the changes should be relatively easy. Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one: struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs); And put the old one back at the end: set_irq_regs(old_regs); Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ(). In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary: - update_process_times(user_mode(regs)); - profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs); + update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs())); + profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING); I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself, except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode(). Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers: (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely. The regs pointer is no longer stored in the input_dev struct. (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking. It does something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs pointer or not. (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type irq_handler_t.

* [PATCH] 8139too deadlock fixArjan van de Ven2006-07-051-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | > stack backtrace: > [<f9099d31>] rtl8139_start_xmit+0xd9/0xff [8139too] > [<c11ad5ea>] netpoll_send_skb+0x98/0xea This seems to be a real deadlock... So netpoll_send_skb takes the _xmit_lock, which is all nitty gritty but then rtl8139_start_xmit comes around while that lock is taken, and does spin_unlock_irq(&tp->lock); which.. enables interrupts and softirqs; this is quite bad because the xmit lock is taken in softirq context for the watchdog like this: [<c1200376>] _spin_lock+0x23/0x32 [<c11af282>] dev_watchdog+0x14/0xb1 [<c101dab2>] run_timer_softirq+0xf2/0x14a [<c101a691>] __do_softirq+0x55/0xb0 [<c1004a8d>] do_softirq+0x58/0xbd Which would deadlock now that the spin_unlock_irq() has enabled irqs/softirqs while the _xmit_lock is still held. The patch below turns this into a irqsave/irqrestore pair so that interrupts don't get enabled unconditionally.
