Jeff Garzik 09f75cd7bf [NET] drivers/net: statistics cleanup #1 -- save memory and shrink code
We now have struct net_device_stats embedded in struct net_device,
and the default ->get_stats() hook does the obvious thing for us.

Run through drivers/net/* and remove the driver-local storage of
statistics, and driver-local ->get_stats() hook where applicable.

This was just the low-hanging fruit in drivers/net; plenty more drivers
remain to be updated.

Stephen Hemminger bea3348eef [NET]: Make NAPI polling independent of struct net_device objects.
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.

With lots of help and suggestions from Rusty Russell, Roland Dreier,
Michael Chan, Jeff Garzik, and Jamal Hadi Salim.

Joseph Fannin, Scott Wood, Hans J. Koch, and Michael Chan.

Timur Tabi 6b0b594bb8 [POWERPC] qe: miscellaneous code improvements and fixes to the QE library
This patch makes numerous miscellaneous code improvements to the QE library.

1. Remove struct ucc_common and merge ucc_init_guemr() into ucc_set_type()
   (every caller of ucc_init_guemr() also calls ucc_set_type()).  Modify all
   callers of ucc_set_type() accordingly.

2. Remove the unused enum ucc_pram_initial_offset.

3. Refactor qe_setbrg(), also implement work-around for errata QE_General4.

4. Several printk() calls were missing the terminating \n.

5. Add __iomem where needed, and change u16 to __be16 and u32 to __be32 where
   appropriate.

6. In ucc_slow_init() the RBASE and TBASE registers in the PRAM were programmed
   with the wrong value.

7. Add the protocol type to struct us_info and updated ucc_slow_init() to
   use it, instead of always programming QE_CR_PROTOCOL_UNSPECIFIED.

8. Rename ucc_slow_restart_x() to ucc_slow_restart_tx()

9. Add several macros in qe.h (mostly for slow UCC support, but also to
   standardize some naming convention) and remove several unused macros.

10. Update ucc_geth.c to use the new macros.

11. Add ucc_slow_info.protocol to specify which QE_CR_PROTOCOL_xxx protcol
    to use when initializing the UCC in ucc_slow_init().

12. Rename ucc_slow_pram.rfcr to rbmr and ucc_slow_pram.tfcr to tbmr, since
    these are the real names of the registers.

13. Use the setbits, clrbits, and clrsetbits where appropriate.

14. Refactor ucc_set_qe_mux_rxtx().

15. Remove all instances of 'volatile'.

16. Simplify get_cmxucr_reg();

17. Replace qe_mux.cmxucrX with qe_mux.cmxucr[].

18. Updated struct ucc_geth because struct ucc_fast is not padded any more.

Also, the max-speed property name was determined too generic,

Timur Tabi 4c35630ccd [POWERPC] Change rheap functions to use ulongs instead of pointers
The rheap allocation functions return a pointer, but the actual value is based
on how the heap was initialized, and so it can be anything, e.g. an offset
into a buffer.  A ulong is a better representation of the value returned by
the allocation functions.

This patch changes all of the relevant rheap functions to use a unsigned long
integers instead of a pointer.  In case of an error, the value returned is
a negative error code that has been cast to an unsigned long.  The caller can
use the IS_ERR_VALUE() macro to check for this.

All code which calls the rheap functions is updated accordingly.  Macros
IS_MURAM_ERR() and IS_DPERR(), have been deleted in favor of IS_ERR_VALUE().

Also added error checking to rh_attach_region().

Nicu Ioan Petru 3a8205ead4 ucc_geth: fixes for ucc_geth_memclean
The ucc_geth_memclean function can be called before the Tx BD rings, Rx
BD rings and associated socket buffers are allocated (for example if
ucc_fast_init fails). The current code doesn't check if p_tx_bd_ring[i]
is null, generating a kernel panic when trying to free the associated
socket buffers.

The function can also fail when accessing the uninitialized list_head
structures ugeth->group_hash_q and ugeth->ind_hash_q. In the current
implementation the list heads are initialized only when
maxGroupAddrInHash and maxIndAddrInHash are positive values, although I
think it's better to always initialize them.

Michael Reiss 702ff12ce7 ucc_geth: NAPI-related bug fixes
Based partly on the gianfar driver, this patch fixes several
bugs which were causing NAPI to be completely unusable.
* An IRQ is still needed in NAPI, to kick off NAPI task,
  and for Tx processing.  Request the IRQ.
* If rx_work_limit = 0 we are not complete.
* While running Rx NAPI processing we must mask Rx events,
  including Rx busy.
* ucc_geth_rx function does not need a lock.
  Could lead to deadlock in NAPI case.
* There's no need to loop reading ucce multiple times in the ISR,
  so while adding the call to schedule NAPI which was not there,
  simplify the event processing into if-else format.
* Rx Busy now kicks off NAPI processing, while still
  being counted as an error.

Kim Phillips 728de4c927 ucc_geth: migrate ucc_geth to phylib
migrate ucc_geth to use the common phylib code.

There are several side effects from doing this:

o deprecate 'interface' property specification present
  in some old device tree source files in
  favour of a split 'max-speed' and 'interface-type'
  description to appropriately match definitions
  in include/linux/phy.h.  Note that 'interface' property
  is still honoured if max-speed or interface-type
  are not present (backward compatible).
o compile-time CONFIG_UGETH_HAS_GIGA is eliminated
  in favour of probe time speed derivation logic.
o adjust_link streamlined to only operate on maccfg2
  and upsmr.r10m, instead of reapplying static initial
  values related to the interface-type.
o Addition of UEC MDIO of_platform driver requires
  platform code add 'mdio' type to id list
  prior to calling of_platform_bus_probe (separate patch).
o ucc_struct_init introduced to reduce ucc_geth_startup
  complexity.

changes due to qe_lib changes include:

o removed inclusion of platform header file
o removed platform_device code, replaced with of_device
o removed typedefs
o uint -> u32 conversions
o removed following defines:
  QE_SIZEOF_BD, BD_BUFFER_ARG, BD_BUFFER_CLEAR, BD_BUFFER,
  BD_STATUS_AND_LENGTH_SET, BD_STATUS_AND_LENGTH, and BD_BUFFER_SET
  because they hid sizeof/in_be32/out_be32 operations from the reader.
o removed irrelevant comments, added others to resemble removed BD_ defines
o const'd and uncasted all get_property() assignments

bugfixes, courtesy of Scott Wood, include:

- Read phy_address as a u32, not u8.
- Match on type == "network" as well as compatible == "ucc_geth", as
  device_is_compatible() will only compare up to the length of the
  test string, allowing "ucc_geth_phy" to match as well.
- fixes the MAC setting code in ucc_geth.c.  The old code was overwriting and dereferencing random stack contents.

David Howells 7d12e780e0 IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlers
Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
Linux kernel.

The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
space and code to pass it around.  On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
(ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).

Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
something different with the variable.  On FRV, for instance, the address is
maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
handling.

Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
through up to twenty or so layers of functions.  Consider a USB character
device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller.  A character
device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.

I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386.  I've runtested the
main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
with minimal configurations.

This will affect all archs.  Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:

	struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);

And put the old one back at the end:

	set_irq_regs(old_regs);

Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().

In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:

	-	update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
	-	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
	+	update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
	+	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);

I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().

Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:

 (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely.  The regs pointer is no longer stored in
     the input_dev struct.

 (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking.  It does
     something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
     pointer or not.

 (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
     irq_handler_t.

Andy Gospodarek d5b20697ca [PATCH] Remove more unnecessary driver printk's
As I promised last week, here is the first pass at removing all
unnecessary printk's that exist in network device drivers currently in
promiscuous mode.  The duplicate messages are not needed so they have
been removed.  Some of these drivers are quite old and might not need an
update, but I did them all anyway.

I am currently auditing the remaining conditional printk's and will send
out a patch for those soon.
