When parallel detect is used, flow-control is set to the
req_fc_auto_adv instead of none.Motive: when 577xx is FC configuration is set to AUTO, while LP speed
is set to FORCE mode and FC to force RX/TX, link would come up using
parallel detect, and the FC will be set to NONE since FC capabilities
were not negotiated, although the LP is setting FC to force RX/TX.Signed-off-by: Yaniv Rosner

The BCM8481 does not generate LASI interrupt for 10M, 100M and 1G link, so we
are using LED4 output as the interrupt input to the 57711. This requires some

The new FW improves the packets per second rate. It required a lot of change in
the FW which implies many changes in the driver to support it. It is now also
possible for the driver to use a separate MSI-X vector for Rx and Tx - this also
add some to the complicity of this change.All things said - after this patch, practically all performance matrixes show
improvement.
Though Vladislav Zolotarov is not signed on this patch, he did most of the job
and deserves credit for that.Signed-off-by: Eilon Greenstein

Due to lack of configuration, if the BMC configures the chip to pass all
broadcast/multicast traffic to it, the host will not receive it. On top of
fixing it, also make sure that in promiscuous mode, the host will receive the

Adding support for BCM8727 - a dual port SFP+ PHY. That includes verification of
the optic module vendor and part number - the list of approved modules resides
on the nvram and the module is verified by the FW. Since not all users would
like to use this verification feature, it can be disabled. The default behavior
is to issue a warning if the module is not approved, but still allow using it -
but it is also possible to disable the link if the module is not approved.Signed-off-by: Yaniv Rosner

Also adding the ability to recognize the optic module and disable it if it is
not authorized for safety reasons - since this feature might upset some users
which are willing to take the risk, it is optional and can be disabled by
setting an nvram bit (or a trivial driver patch to set this bit).

Pause settings
- 1G pause was not working due to missing write to the emac block
(TX_MODE_FLOW_EN)
- The flow control should use the negotiated result (after autoneg) so
we should save both the requested autoneg and the result
- The HW credits with flow control at 1G speed were not optimized and
caused low throughput
- It is recommended to turn off flow control if the MTU is bigger than
5000B due to internal buffers sizeSigned-off-by: Yaniv Rosner

Link order with external PHY
When external PHY exists (second chip with the PHY to translate to
another physical medium) the link with the eternal PHY and the network
should be established before setting the link between the 5771x and the
PHY. This is the right order and it is important when using autoneg -
the link to the network should use the autoneg and the link between the
two chips should be forced to the network result.Signed-off-by: Yaniv Rosner

Load/Unload under traffic
Few issues were found when loading and unloading under traffic:
- When receiving Tx interrupt call netif_wake_queue if the queue is
stopped but the state is open
- Check that interrupts are enabled before doing anything else on the
msix_fp_int function
- In nic_load, enable the interrupts only when needed and ready for it
- Function stop_leading returns status since it can fail
- Add 1ms delay when unloading the driver to validate that there are no
open transactions that already started by the FW
- Splitting the "has work" function into Tx and Rx so the same function
will be used on unload and interrupts
- Do not request for WoL if only resetting the device (save the time
that it takes the FW to set the link after reset)
- Fixing the device reset after iSCSI boot and before driver load - all
internal buffers must be cleared before the driver is loadedSigned-off-by: Vladislav Zolotarov

Statistics
- Making sure that each drop is accounted for in the driver statistics
- Clearing the FW statistics when driver is loaded to prevent
inconsistency with HW statistics
- Once error is detected (bnx2x_panic_dump), stop the statistics
before other actions (currently it is stopped last and can corrupt
the data) - Adding HW checksum error counter to the statistics
- Removing unused variable stats_ticks
- Using macros instead of magic numbers to indicate which statistics are
shared per port and which are per functionSigned-off-by: Yitchak Gertner

Supporting the 57711 and 57711E - refers to in the code as E1H. The
57710 is referred to as E1.To support the new members in the family, the bnx2x structure was

New Link code:
Moving all the link related code (including the calculations, the
initialization of the MAC and PHY and the external PHY's code) into
a separated file. The changes from the code that used to be part of
bnx2x.c (now called bnx2x_main.c) are:
- Using separate structures for link inputs and link outputs to clearly
identify what was configured and what is the outcome
- Adding code to read external PHY FW version and print it as part of
ethtool -i
- Adding code to upgrade external PHY FW from ethtool -E with special
magic number - Changing the link down indication to ERR level
- Adding a lock on all PHY access to prevent an interrupt and
setting changes to overlap
- Adding support for emulation and FPGA (small chunk of code that really
helps in the lab) - Adding support for 1G on BCM8706 PHY
- Adding clear debug print incase of fan failure (the PHY type is now
"failure")Signed-off-by: Yaniv Rosner
