be2net: fix cmd-rx-filter not notifying MCC

2011-08-03T12:19:27Z

Dave, I missed out on this line while composing the 4/6 patch from my yesterday's patchset ("[PATCH net-next 4/6] be2net: use RX_FILTER cmd to program multicast addresses"). As you've already queued up the patchset for net-next, I'm sending the fix in a separate patch. Pls apply. Signed-off-by: Sathya Perla Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

be2net: drop pkts that do not belong to the port

2011-08-03T10:23:30Z

On some BE skews, while in promiscuous mode, pkts that do not belong to a port can arrive on that port. Drop such pkts. Signed-off-by: Somnath Kotur Signed-off-by: Sathya Perla Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

be2net: add support for flashing Teranetics PHY firmware

2011-08-03T10:23:30Z

Support for flashing RJ45 PHY (from Teranetics) on a 10GBaseT BE3 card. Signed-off-by: Naresh G Signed-off-by: Sathya Perla Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

be2net: use RX_FILTER cmd to program multicast addresses

2011-08-03T10:23:30Z

Use this cmd for both promiscous and multicast address programming. Get rid of the old MULTICAST_SET cmd. Signed-off-by: Sathya Perla Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

be2net: non-member vlan pkts not received in promiscous mode

2011-08-03T10:23:29Z

While configuring promiscous mode, explicitly set the VLAN_PROMISCOUS bit to make this happen. When switching off promiscous mode, re-program the vids. Signed-off-by: Xavier Selvin Signed-off-by: Sathya Perla Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

be2net: no need to query link status

2011-08-03T10:23:29Z

Change in the link status generates an MCC event. This is processed and netif_carrier_on/off is called accordingly. Don't need to query/store the link_status state. Signed-off-by: Sathya Perla Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

be2net: remove wrong and unnecessary calls to netif_carrier_off()

2011-08-03T10:23:29Z

1) In be_probe(), as soon as the MCC Q is created a gratuitous link status event is received and processed. Accordingly netif_carrier_off/on() is called. The extra netif_carrier_off() call in probe can race with this and cause wrong state. 2) be_close() need not call netif_carrier_off(). It is OK to show the actual link state even when the device is administratively down. Signed-off-by: Sathya Perla Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

be2net: use stats-sync to read/write 64-bit stats

2011-08-01T07:12:00Z

64-bit stats in be2net are written/read as follows using the stats-sync interface for safe access in 32-bit archs: 64-bit sync writer reader stats ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ tx_stats tx_stats->sync be_xmit be_get_stats64, ethtool tx-compl tx_stats->sync_compl tx-compl-processing ethtool rx-stats rx_stats->sync rx-compl-processing be_get_stats64, ethtool, eqd-update This patch is based on Stephen Hemminger's earlier patch on the same issue...

be2net: cleanup and refactor stats code

2011-08-01T07:11:59Z

In preparation for 64-bit stats interface, the following cleanups help streamline the code: 1) made some more rx/tx stats stored by driver 64 bit 2) made some HW stas (err/drop counters) stored in be_drv_stats 32 bit to keep the code simple as BE provides 32-bit counters only. 3) removed duplication of netdev stats in ethtool 4) removed some un-necessary stats and fixed some names Signed-off-by: Sathya Perla Signed-off-by: David S.
