  • The "3c59x: use mii_check_media" patch introduced a netif_carrier_off in
    vortex_up. 10base2 stoped working because of this. This is removed.

    Tx/Rx reset is back in vortex_up because the 3c900B-Combo stops working after
    changing from half duplex to full duplex when Tx/Rx reset is done with
    vortex_timer.

    Also brought back some mii stuff to be sure that it does not break something
    else.

    Thanks to Pete Clements for reporting and testing.

  • The pre-2.6.16 patch "3c59x collision statistics fix" accidentally caused
    vortex_error() to not run iowrite16(TxEnable, ioaddr + EL3_CMD) if we got a
    maxCollisions interrupt but MAX_COLLISION_RESET is not set.

    Thanks to Pete Clements for reporting and testing.

  • Many drivers use skb->tail unnecessarily.

    In these situations, the code roughly looks like:

    dev = dev_alloc_skb(...);

    [optional] skb_reserve(skb, ...);

    ... skb->tail ...

    But even if the skb_reserve() happens, skb->data equals
    skb->tail. So it doesn't make any sense to use anything
    other than skb->data in these cases.

    Another case was the s2io.c driver directly mucking with
    the skb->data and skb->tail pointers. It really just wanted
    to do an skb_reserve(), so that's what the code was changed
    to do instead.

    Another reason I'm making this change as it allows some SKB
    cleanups I have planned simpler to merge. In those cleanups,
    skb->head, skb->tail, and skb->end pointers are removed, and
    replaced with skb->head_room and skb->tail_room integers.

  • Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
    even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
    archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
    3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
    git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
    infrastructure for it.

    Let it rip!
