qla3xxx: use the DMA state API instead of the pci equivalents

2010-04-13T09:54:17+00:00

This replace the PCI DMA state API (include/linux/pci-dma.h) with the DMA equivalents since the PCI DMA state API will be obsolete. No functional change.

qla3xxx: bugfix: Move link state machine into a worker thread

2007-11-10T09:25:15+00:00

The link state machine requires access to some resources that are shared with the iSCSI function on the chip. (See iSCSI driver at drivers/scsi/qla4xxx) If the interface is being up/downed at a rapid pace this driver may need to sleep waiting to get access to the common resources. For this we are moving the state machine to run as a work thread. Signed-off-by: Ron Mercer Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik

[NET] drivers/net: statistics cleanup #1 -- save memory and shrink code

2007-10-10T23:51:16+00:00

We now have struct net_device_stats embedded in struct net_device, and the default ->get_stats() hook does the obvious thing for us. Run through drivers/net/* and remove the driver-local storage of statistics, and driver-local ->get_stats() hook where applicable. This was just the low-hanging fruit in drivers/net; plenty more drivers remain to be updated.

[NET]: Make NAPI polling independent of struct net_device objects.

2007-10-10T23:47:45+00:00

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. With lots of help and suggestions from Rusty Russell, Roland Dreier, Michael Chan, Jeff Garzik, and Jamal Hadi Salim. Bug fixes from Thomas Graf, Roland Dreier, Peter Zijlstra, Joseph Fannin, Scott Wood, Hans J. Koch, and Michael Chan. [ Ported to current tree and all drivers converted.
