Sucheta Chakraborty e4baaf7198 netxen: enable LRO based on NETIF_F_LRO
o Enable/disable LRO in device based on NETIF_F_LRO flag, instead of using
  driver private flag.
o Disable LRO, if rx csum offloading is off.

David Miller,
	You should use netdev_info() instead of dev_info().

Tejun Heo 5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Narender Kumar 5d09e534bb netxen : fix BOND_MODE_TLB/ALB mode.
o Along with netdev->perm_addr, mac address will be
  maintained in device private structure.

o Device limitation: We need to set mac address when ever
  interface comes up.

In ALB/TAL mode, bonding driver calls set_mac for all slave with bond mac address.
But bonding driver set netdev->dev_addr field to its original value,
after enslaving interfaces.

When ever active slave changes, it swap dev_addr of inactive slave with active.
Yet it doesn't notify driver about change in netdev->dev_addr.

As netxen driver need to set mac addr when ever interface comes up,
it can't rely on netdev->dev_addr field. Specially in case of bonding mode ALB/TLB.

Narender Kumar fa3ce355c1 netxen: bridged mode optimizations
When the interface is put in bridged mode, destination mac
addresses are unknown to firmware. So packets take a slow
path (lower priority) in firmware reducing performance.

Firmware can cache limited number of remote unicast mac
addresses for certain interval, if "dynamic mac learning"
mode is enabled.

Driver needs to enable this "mac learning" mode in firmware.
Currently this is done through net device class sysfs entry,
possibly this can also be done upon netlink notifications to
from bridge.

Dhananjay Phadke 6598b169b8 netxen: enable ip addr hashing
NX3031 hardware requires local IP addresses for packet
accumulation (LRO). IP address hashing is required to
distinguish a local TCP flow from others (forwarded or
guest).

This patch adds listener for IP and netdev events and
configures IP address in the firmware.

Dhananjay Phadke 68b3cae082 netxen: refresh firmware info after reset
o move dma mask update to netxen_start_firmware() so that
  if firmware changes across suspend (e.g. file -> flash)
  it reflects right dma mask.
o re-read firmware capabilities after firmware reset.

Dhananjay Phadke b2af9cb06d netxen: fix deadlock on dev close
netxen: fix deadlock on dev close

The tx ring accounting fix in commit cb2107be43
("netxen: fix tx ring accounting") introduced intermittent
deadlock when inteface is going down.

This was possibly combined effect of speculative tx pause,
calling netif_tx_lock instead of queue lock and unclean
synchronization with napi which could end up unmasking
interrupt.

Dhananjay Phadke cb2107be43 netxen: fix tx ring accounting
This forces every update of tx ring producer to check for
availability of space for next full TSO command. Earlier
firmware control commands didn't care to pause tx queue.

Stop the tx queue if there's not enough space to transmit one full
LSO command left on the tx ring after current transmit. This avoids
returning NETDEV_TX_BUSY after checking distance between producer
and consumer on every cpu.

Restart the tx queue only if we have cleaned up enough tx
descriptors.
