2008-08-07netxen: fix promisc mode, mtu settingDhananjay Phadke1-3/+6
For NX3031, multicast filtering, promisc mode, and max frame size setting is handled by firmware, driver needs to send request to enable/disable it. For old chip revisions / firmware, driver still sets it directly. Added function pointer to set mtu according to chip revision.

2008-07-22netxen: cut-through rx changesDhananjay Phadke1-0/+710
NX3031 supports cut-through operation where ingress packets are directly dma'ed into host buffers to reduce latency. This requires larger dma buffers (2kb) and different alignemnt. The buffer posting logic is changed a bit. The free rx buffers are maintained in linked list, since the received reference handles can be out of order. However rx descriptors are still posted sequentially, indexed by producer. Signed-off-by: Dhananjay Phadke <dhananjay@netxen.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>
