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.

Instead of all drivers reading pci config space to get the revision
ID, they can now use the pci_device->revision member.
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.

This restores the previously removed netif_poll_enable call in e1000_open.
It's needed on all but the first call to e1000_open for a NIC as
e1000_close always calls netif_poll_disable.
netif_poll_enable can only be called safely if no polls have been
scheduled. This should be the case as long as we don't enter our IRQ
handler.
In order to guarantee this we explicitly disable IRQs as early as possible
when we're probing the NIC.

Removing the call to netif_poll_enable in e1000_open should fix this issue,
the only other call to netif_poll_enable is in e1000_up() which is only
reached after a device reset or resume.

pci_enable_msi failure is a normal event so we should not print any error.
Going over the code I spotted a missing pci_disable_msi() leak when irq

two different calls to pci_request_irq into a single call making this
look a lot better. All #ifdef CONFIG_PCI_MSI's have been removed.

flush_work(wq, work) doesn't need the first parameter, we can use cwq->wq

Also, rename flush_work() to cancel_work_sync() and fix all callers.
Perhaps this is not the best name, but "flush_work" is really bad.

Use the round_jiffies() function in e1000.
These timers all were of the "about once a second" or "about once every X
seconds" variety and several showed up in the "what wakes the cpu up" profiles
that the tickless patches provide. Some timers are highly dynamic based on
network load; but even on low activity systems they still show up so the
rounding is done only in cases of low activity, allowing higher frequency
timers in the high activity case.
The various hardware watchdogs are an obvious case; they run every 2 seconds
but aren't otherwise specific of exactly when they need to run.

It was harmless to begin with since the two fields coincided. Now
that we've made them different with the addition of csum_start, the

linked to lockups of the e1000 hardware, see for example
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=229603
but it's likely that the commit itself is not really introducing the
bug, but just allowing an unrelated problem to rear its ugly head (ie
one current working theory is that the code exposes us to a hardware
race condition by decreasing the amount of time we spend in each NAPI
poll cycle).
We'll revert it until root cause is known. Intel has a repeatable
reproduction on two different machines and bus traces of the hardware
doing something bad.

This reverts commit 72f3ab7462, which was
superceded by commit 683a2aa339
("e1000: Do not truncate TSO TCP header with 82544 workaround"), which
fixed the real problem.
Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
The e1000 driver has a workaround for 82544 on PCI-X where if the
terminating byte of a buffer is at addresses 0-3 mod 8, then 4 bytes
are shaved off it and defered to a new segment. This is due to an
erratum that could otherwise cause TX hangs.
Unfortunately this breaks TSO because it may cause the TCP header to
be split over two segments which itself causes TX hangs. The solution
is to pull 4 bytes of data up from the next segment rather than pushing
4 bytes off. This ensures the TCP header remains in one piece and
works around the PCI-X hang.
This patch is based on one from Jesse Brandeburg.
This bug has been trigered by both CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB as well as Xen.
Note that the only reason we don't see this normally is because the
TCP stack starts writing from the end, i.e., it writes the TCP header
first then slaps on the IP header, etc. So the end of the TCP header
(skb->tail - 1 here) is always aligned correctly.
Had we made the start of the IP header (e.g., IPv6) 8-byte aligned
instead, this would happen for normal TCP traffic as well.

Currently after an interface up, the link state is detected 2 seconds later
when the first watchdog timer runs. This patch changes that by triggering
the hardware to generate a link-change interrupt from the up() function
instead. This has the result that the link state gets detected immediately
and without races. This has the potential to speed up booting since a normal
distribution boot process waits for a link before DHCP is attempted.
