Several devices have multiple independant RX queues per net
device, and some have a single interrupt doorbell for several
queues.
In either case, it's easier to support layouts like that if the
structure representing the poll is independant from the net
device itself.
The signature of the ->poll() call back goes from:
int foo_poll(struct net_device *dev, int *budget)
to
int foo_poll(struct napi_struct *napi, int budget)
The caller is returned the number of RX packets processed (or
the number of "NAPI credits" consumed if you want to get
abstract). The callee no longer messes around bumping
dev->quota, *budget, etc. because that is all handled in the
caller upon return.
The napi_struct is to be embedded in the device driver private data
structures.
Furthermore, it is the driver's responsibility to disable all NAPI
instances in it's ->stop() device close handler. Since the
napi_struct is privatized into the driver's private data structures,
only the driver knows how to get at all of the napi_struct instances
it may have per-device.

[ Ported to current tree and all drivers converted. Integrated
Stephen's follow-on kerneldoc additions, and restored poll_list
handling to the old style to fix mutual exclusion issues. -DaveM ]

Fixed rx checksum bits. Turn on TCP processing for rx checksum.
Fixed max frame length register write. It wasn't getting set
in multi-port system. Set rx buffer queue length properly
for jumbo frames.

To reproduce this panic consistently, we run an intensive network
application like 'netperf'. After waiting for a couple of seconds,
you will see a stack trace and a kernel panic where we are calling
pci_unmap_single() in ql_poll().
Changes:
1) Check the flags on the Response MAC IO Control block to check for
errors
2) Ensure that if we are on the 4022 we only use one segment
3) Before, we were reading the memory mapped producer index register
everytime we iterated in the loop when clearing the queue. We should
only be iterating to a known point, not as the producer index
is being updated.

The scatter/gather lists were not being build correctly. When
large frames spanned several buffers the chip would panic.

This change removes use of constants for rx buffer queue size
and instead calculates the queue length based on what he MTU
is set to.

This is a complementary network driver for our ISP4XXX parts.
There is a concurrent effort underway to get the iSCSI driver (qla4xxx)
integrated upstream as well.
I have been through several iterations with the linux-netdev list and have had
much response from Stephen Hemminger.
- Built and tested using kernel 2.6.17-rc4.
- The chip supports two ethernet and two iSCSI functions.
- The functions ql_sem_lock, ql_sem_spinlock, ql_sem_unlock, and
ql_wait_for_drvr_lock are used to protect resources that are shared across
the network and iSCSI functions. This protection is mostly during chip
initialization and resets, but also include link management.
- The PHY/MII are not exported through ethtool due to the fact that the
iSCSI function will control the common link at least 50% of the time.
This driver has been through several iterations on the netdev list and we feel
this driver is ready for inclusion in the upstream kernel.
It has been built and tested on x86 and PPC64 platforms.
