Date: Mon, 5 May 2014 13:07:36 -0700 From: Jeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@...el.com> To: davem@...emloft.net Cc: Jeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@...el.com>, netdev@...r.kernel.org, gospo@...hat.com, sassmann@...hat.com Subject: [net 0/4][pull request] Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates This series contains updates to e1000e only. David provides four fixes for e1000e, first is a workaround for a hardware erratum on 82579 devices which experienced packet loss in gigabit and 100 speeds when interconnect between the PHY and MAC is exiting K1 power saving state. Second expands the scope of a workaround to include i217 and i218 parts as well to address over aggressive transmit behavior when connecting at 10Mbs half-duplex. Next is to resolve a reported link flap issue on 82579 parts which was root caused as an interoperability problem between 82579 and at least some Broadcom PHYs in the Energy Efficient Ethernet wake mechanism. Lastly, restricts the workaround of putting the PHY into MDIO slow mode to access the PHY id to relevant parts since this issue has been fixed on the newer hardware. The following are changes since commit 9d4619c492c84e4c1e6d7127f1cbf55da04599d0: Altera TSE: ALTERA_TSE should depend on HAS_DMA and are available in the git repository at: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jkirsher/net master David Ertman (4): e1000e: Workaround for dropped packets in Gig/100 speeds on 82579 e1000e: Expand workaround for 10Mb HD throughput bug e1000e: Fix issue with link flap on 82579 e1000e: Restrict MDIO Slow Mode workaround to relevant parts drivers/net/ethernet/intel/e1000e/ich8lan.c | 71 +++++++++++++++++------------ drivers/net/ethernet/intel/e1000e/ich8lan.h | 3 ++ drivers/net/ethernet/intel/e1000e/phy.h | 1 + 3 files changed, 46 insertions(+), 29 deletions(-) -- 1.9.0 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
