    Manually fix up conflicts in:
    - drivers/net/e1000e/netdev.c: due to pm_qos registration
    infrastructure changes
    - drivers/net/phy/marvell.c: conflict between adding 88ec048 support
    and cleaning up the IDs
    - drivers/net/wireless/ipw2x00/ipw2100.c: trivial ipw2100_pm_qos_req
    conflict (registration change vs marking it static)

  • Extract the microcode for the QLogic QLE7220 series IB HCA and use the
    kernel microcode request facility to load the microcode. This
    supports Debian Linux's requirements to separate microcode which
    doesn't have open source code available from the device driver.

    drm/vgaarb: add VGA arbitration support to the drm and kms.
    drm/radeon: some r420s have a CP race with the DMA engine.
    drm/radeon/r600/kms: rv670 is not DCE3
    drm/radeon/kms: r420 idle after programming GA_ENHANCE
    drm/radeon/kms: more fixes to rv770 suspend/resume path.
    drm/radeon/kms: more alignment for rv770.c with r600.c
    drm/radeon/kms: rv770 blit init called too late.
    drm/radeon/kms: move around new init path code to avoid posting at init
    drm/radeon/r600: fix some issues with suspend/resume.
    drm/radeon/kms: disable VGA rendering engine before taking over VRAM
    drm/radeon/kms: Move radeon_get_clock_info() call out of radeon_clocks_init().
    drm/radeon/kms: add initial connector properties
    drm/radeon/kms: Use surfaces for scanout / cursor byte swapping on big endian.
    drm/radeon/kms: don't fail if we fail to init GPU acceleration
    drm/r600/kms: fixup number of loops per blit calculation.
    drm/radeon/kms: reprogram format in set base.
    drm/radeon: avivo chips have no separate int bit for display

    Fixed up trivial conflicts in firmware/Makefile due to network driver
    (cxgb3) and drm (mga/r128/radeon) firmware being listed next to each
    other.

  • Loosely based on a patch by
    Jaswinder Singh Rajput .

    KMS support by Dave Airlie .

    For Radeon 100- to 500-series, firmware blobs look like:
    struct {
    __be32 datah;
    __be32 datal;
    } cp_ucode[256];

    For Radeon 600-series, there are two separate firmware blobs:
    __be32 me_ucode[PM4_UCODE_SIZE * 3];
    __be32 pfp_ucode[PFP_UCODE_SIZE];

    For Radeon 700-series, likewise:
    __be32 me_ucode[R700_PM4_UCODE_SIZE];
    __be32 pfp_ucode[R700_PFP_UCODE_SIZE];

  • 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.

  • >From now on FW will be downloaded from the binary file using request_firmware.

    There will be different files for every supported chip. Currently 57710 (e1) and
    57711 (e1h).

    File names have the following format: bnx2x--.fw.
    ihex versions of current FW files are submitted in the next patch.

    Each binary file has a header in the following format:

    struct bnx2x_fw_file_section {
    __be32 len;
    __be32 offset;
    }

    struct bnx2x_fw_file_hdr {
    struct bnx2x_fw_file_section init_ops;
    struct bnx2x_fw_file_section init_ops_offsets;
    struct bnx2x_fw_file_section init_data;
    struct bnx2x_fw_file_section tsem_int_table_data;
    struct bnx2x_fw_file_section tsem_pram_data;
    struct bnx2x_fw_file_section usem_int_table_data;
    struct bnx2x_fw_file_section usem_pram_data;
    struct bnx2x_fw_file_section csem_int_table_data;
    struct bnx2x_fw_file_section csem_pram_data;
    struct bnx2x_fw_file_section xsem_int_table_data;
    struct bnx2x_fw_file_section xsem_pram_data;
    struct bnx2x_fw_file_section fw_version;
    }

    Each bnx2x_fw_file_section contains the length and the offset of the appropriate
    section in the binary file. Values are stored in the big endian format.

    Data types of arrays:

    init_data __be32
    init_ops_offsets __be16
    XXsem_pram_data u8
    XXsem_int_table_data u8
    init_ops struct raw_op {
    u8 op;
    __be24 offset;
    __be32 data;
    }
    fw_version u8

    >From now boundaries of a specific initialization stage are stored in
    init_ops_offsets array instead of being defined by separate macroes. The index
    in init_ops_offsets is calculated by BLOCK_OPS_IDX macro:

    #define BLOCK_OPS_IDX(block, stage, end) \
    (2*(((block)*STAGE_IDX_MAX) + (stage)) + (end))

    Security:

    In addition to sanity check of array boundaries bnx2x will check a FW version.
    Additional checks might be added in the future.
