This howto made sense in the 1990s when users had to manually configure
ISA cards with jumpers or vendor utilities, but with the implementation
of PCI it became increasingly less and less relevant, to the point where
it has been well over a decade since I last updated it. And there is
no value in anyone else taking over updating it either.
However the references to it continue to spread as boiler plate text
from one Kconfig file into the next. We are not doing end users any
favours by pointing them at this old document, so lets kill it with
fire, once and for all, to hopefully stop any further spread.
No code is changed in this commit, just Kconfig help text.

Commit d75b1ade56 ("net: less interrupt masking in NAPI") uncovered
wrong alx_poll() behavior.
A NAPI poll() handler is supposed to return exactly the budget when/if
napi_complete() has not been called.
It is also supposed to return number of frames that were received, so
that netdev_budget can have a meaning.
Also, in case of TX pressure, we still have to dequeue received
packets : alx_clean_rx_irq() has to be called even if
alx_clean_tx_irq(alx) returns false, otherwise device is half duplex.

This patch allows (optionally, via ethtool) the atl1e NIC to:
- Receive bad frames (runt, bad-fcs, etc..)
- Receive full frames without stripping the FCS.
This has been tested on my board by injecting runt and bad-fcs
frames with a FPGA-based device.
The particular scenario of receiving very short frames (<4 bytes)
without passing FCS to the upper layer has been also tested:
This could be potentially dangerous because the driver performs a
4 byte subtraction on the frame length, but I finally have NOT
added anything to avoid this because it seems the NIC always
discards frames so much short..
If someone still have some reason to worry about this, please
tell me.. I will add an explicit SW check..

Please try the following patch : It should use 2K frags instead of 4K

Thanks !
[PATCH] atl1c: use custom skb allocator
We had reports ( https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54021 )
that using high order pages for skb allocations is problematic for atl1c
We do not know exactly what the problem is, but we suspect that crossing
4K pages is not well supported by this hardware.
Use a custom allocator, using page allocator and 2K fragments for
optimal stack behavior. We might make this allocator generic
in future kernels.

atl1c uses netdev_alloc_skb to refill its rx dma ring, but that call makes no
guarantees about the suitability of the memory for use in DMA. As a result
we've gotten reports of atl1c drivers occasionally hanging and needing to be
reset:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54021
Fix this by modifying the call to use the internal version __netdev_alloc_skb,
where you can set the gfp_mask explicitly to include GFP_DMA.
Tested by two reporters in the above bug, who have the hardware to validate it.
Both report immediate cessation of the problem with this patch

Ben Hutchings pointed out that my recent update to atl1e
in commit 352900b583
("atl1e: fix dma mapping warnings") was missing a bit of code.
Specifically it reset the hardware tx ring to its origional state when
we hit a dma error, but didn't unmap any exiting mappings from the
operation. This patch fixes that up. It also remembers to free the
skb in the event that an error occurs, so we don't leak. Untested, as
I don't have hardware. I think its pretty straightforward, but please
review closely.
