2007-02-05Spidernet DMA coalescingLinas Vepstas1-2/+2
The current driver code performs 512 DMA mappings of a bunch of 32-byte ring descriptor structures. This is silly, as they are all in contiguous memory. This patch changes the code to dma_map_coherent() each rx/tx ring as a whole.

2006-10-11[PATCH] powerpc/cell spidernet variable name changeLinas Vepstas1-2/+2
Cosmetic patch: give the variable holding the numer of descriptors a more descriptive name, so to avoid confusion. Signed-off-by: Linas Vepstas <linas@austin.ibm.com> Cc: James K Lewis <jklewis@us.ibm.com> Cc: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

2006-09-22[PATCH] Spidernet: add ethtool -S (show statistics)Jim Lewis1-0/+55
Add the ethtool -S (show statistics) feature to the Spidernet ethernet driver. I have tested it extensively and believe it is ready to be applied. Signed-off-by: James K Lewis <jklewis@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

2006-01-17[PATCH] spidernet: performance optimizationsArnd Bergmann1-0/+19
Performance optimizations, changes in these areas: - RX and TX checksum offload - correct maximum MTU - don't use TX interrupts anymore, use a timer instead - remove some superfluous barriers - improve RX RAM full handling From: Utz Bacher <utz.bacher@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Osterkamp <jens.osterkamp@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arndb@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>

Another small update for the spidernet driver to fix a bug encountered during testing our latest hardware with dual-ethernet support. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arndb@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
2005-09-06[PATCH] net: add driver for the NIC on Cell BladesJens Osterkamp1-0/+107
This patch adds a driver for a new 1000 Mbit ethernet NIC. It is integrated on the south bridge that is used for our Cell Blades. The code gets the MAC address from the Open Firmware device tree, so it won't compile on platforms other than ppc64. This is the first public release, so I don't expect the first version to get merged, but I'd aim for integration within the 2.6.13 time frame.
