ethoc: clear only pending irqs

2009-10-19T04:24:16+00:00

This patch fixed the problem of dropped packets due to lost of interrupt requests. We should only clear what was pending at the moment we read the irq source reg. Signed-off-by: Thomas Chou Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

headers: remove sched.h from interrupt.h

2009-10-11T18:20:58+00:00

After m68k's task_thread_info() doesn't refer to current, it's possible to remove sched.h from interrupt.h and not break m68k! Many thanks to Heiko Carstens for allowing this. Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan

ethoc: limit the number of buffers to 128

2009-10-07T10:50:15+00:00

Only 128 buffer descriptors are supported in the core. Limit the number in case we have more memory. Signed-off-by: Thomas Chou Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ethoc: use system memory as buffer

2009-10-07T10:50:14+00:00

This patch enabled the ethoc to allocate system memory as buffer when there is no dedicated buffer memory. Some hardware designs may not have dedicated buffer memory such as on chip or off chip SRAM. In this case, only one memory resource is supplied in the platform data instead of two. Then a DMA buffer can be allocated from system memory and used for the transfer.

ethoc: align received packet to make IP header at word boundary

2009-10-07T10:50:12+00:00

The packet buffer is allocated at 4 bytes boundary, but the IP header length and version bits is located at byte 14. These bit fields access as 32 bits word and caused exception on processors that do not support unaligned access. The patch adds 2 bytes offset to make the bit fields word aligned.

ethoc: fix buffer address mapping

2009-10-07T10:50:12+00:00

The pointer address in buffer descriptors is physical address. The pointer that processor used to access packet is virtual address. Though the higher bits of pointer address used by the MAC may be truncated to zero in special case, it is not always true in larger designs. Signed-off-by: Thomas Chou Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
