Ajit Khaparde 0dffc83e5b be2net: fix unnecessary access to hardware to get link, port info
Every time while doing ethtool->get_settings we are accessing
the hardware to get link status and port information.
This is not necessary.  We now use the cached copy for this info
and update it when the link status changes.

Sathya Perla e7b909a68c be2net: support configuration of 64 multicast addresses instead of 32
To send upto 64 addresses in the multicast-set cmd, the non-embeeded cmd format
that provides for a bigger buffer is used instead of an embedded format.

Ajit Khaparde 9e90c96113 be2net: fix to set proper flow control on resume
If be2 goes into suspend after a user changes the flow control settings,
we are not programming them back after resume. This patch takes care of it.
We now get the flow control settings before going to suspend mode and
then apply them during resume.

Changes to support flashing of the be2 network adapter using the
request_firmware() & ethtool infrastructure. The trigger to flash the device
will come from ethtool utility. The driver will invoke request_firmware()
to start the flash process. The file containing the flash image is expected
to be available in /lib/firmware/

ptr to allow access to all its fields. Merge the contents of struct be_ctrl_info

Ajit Khaparde bd46cb6cf1 be2net: Fix to avoid a crash seen on PPC with LRO and Jumbo frames.
While testing the driver on PPC, we ran into a crash with LRO, Jumbo frames.
With CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES configured (a default in PPC), MAX_SKB_FRAGS drops to 3 and we were crossing the array limits on skb_shinfo(skb)->frags[].
Now we coalesce the frags from the same physical page into one slot in
skb_shinfo(skb)->frags[] and go to the next index when the frag is from

different physical page.

This patch is against the net-2.6 tree.

Sathya Perla 5fb379ee67 be2net: Add MCC queue mechanism for BE cmds
Currenlty all cmds use the blocking MCC mbox to post cmds. An mbox cmd is protected
via a spin_lock(cmd_lock) and not spin_lock_bh() as it is undesirable
to disable BHs while a blocking mbox cmd is in progress (and take long to finish.)
This can lockup a cmd in progress in process context. Instead cmds that may be
called in BH context must use the MCC queue to post cmds. The cmd completions
are rcvd in a separate completion queue and the events are placed in the tx-event
queue.
