| | | | | | | | | | | | | | When NETIF_F_LLTX is set, the atlx driver will use a private lock. But in recent kernels this implementation seems redundant and can cause problems where AF_PACKET sees things twice. Since NETIF_F_LLTX is marked as deprecated and shouldn't be used in new driver, this patch removes NETIF_F_LLTX and adds a mmiowb before sending packet. I have tested this driver on a Eee PC.

* atl1: deal with hardware rx checksum bugJay Cliburn2008-08-071-8/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The L1 hardware contains a bug that flags a fragmented IP packet as having an incorrect TCP/UDP checksum, even though the packet is perfectly valid and its checksum is correct. There's no way to distinguish between one of these good packets and a packet that actually contains a TCP/UDP checksum error, so all we can do is allow the packet to be handed up to the higher layers and let it be sorted out there. Add a comment describing this condition and remove the code that currently fails to handle what may or may not be a checksum error.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Based upon a bug report by Alexey Dobriyan, the patch is also tested by him and confirmed to fix the problem. Packet flow during link state events should not be done by waking and stopping the TX queue anyways, that is handled transparently by netif_carrier_{on,off}(). So, remove the netif_{wake,stop}_queue() calls in the link check code, and add the necessary netif_start_queue() call to atl1_up(). Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

| * atl1: relax eeprom mac address error checkRadu Cristescu2008-06-181-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The atl1 driver tries to determine the MAC address thusly: - If an EEPROM exists, read the MAC address from EEPROM and validate it. - If an EEPROM doesn't exist, try to read a MAC address from SPI flash. - If that fails, try to read a MAC address directly from the MAC Station Address register. - If that fails, assign a random MAC address provided by the kernel. We now have a report of a system fitted with an EEPROM containing all zeros where we expect the MAC address to be, and we currently handle this as an error condition. Turns out, on this system the BIOS writes a valid MAC address to the NIC's MAC Station Address register, but we never try to read it because we return an error when we find the all- zeros address in EEPROM. This patch relaxes the error check and continues looking for a MAC address even if it finds an illegal one in EEPROM.

| | * atl1: fix 4G memory corruption bugAlexey Dobriyan2008-05-311-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When using 4+ GB RAM and SWIOTLB is active, the driver corrupts memory by writing an skb after the relevant DMA page has been unmapped. Although this doesn't happen when *not* using bounce buffers, clearing the pointer to the DMA page after unmapping it fixes the problem. http://marc.info/?t=120861317000005&r=2&w=2 Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jay Cliburn <jacliburn@bellsouth.net> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>
