Currently, all Infiniband users must create a process for polling
their completion queues (or rely on a regular hook such as
netdev_poll() in ipoib.c).
Move instead to a model whereby the Infiniband core maintains a single
process calling ib_poll_eq(), and polling the event queue triggers
polls of the applicable completion queues. (At present, the
Infiniband core simply polls all of the device's completion queues.)
Polling a completion queue will now implicitly refill all attached
receive work queues; this is analogous to the way that netdev_poll()
implicitly refills the RX ring.
Infiniband users no longer need to create a process just to poll their
completion queues and refill their receive rings.
IPoIB and the SMA have separate constants for the packet size to be
used to I/O buffer allocations. Merge these into the single
IB_MAX_PAYLOAD_SIZE constant.
(Various other points in the Infiniband stack have hard-coded
assumptions of a 2048-byte payload; we don't currently support
variable MTUs.)
IPoIB has a link-layer broadcast address that varies according to the
partition key. We currently go through several contortions to pretend
that the link-layer address is a fixed constant; by making the
broadcast address a property of the network device rather than the
link-layer protocol it will be possible to simplify IPoIB's broadcast
handling.
Move the icky call to step() from aoe.c to ata.c; this takes it at
least one step further away from where it really doesn't belong.
Unfortunately, AoE has the ugly aoe_discover() mechanism which means
that we still have a step() loop in aoe.c for now; this needs to be
replaced at some future point.
In order to construct outgoing link-layer frames or parse incoming
ones properly, some protocols (such as 802.11) need more state than is
available in the existing variables passed to the link-layer protocol
handlers. To remedy this, add struct net_device *netdev as the first
argument to each of these functions, so that more information can be
fetched from the link layer-private part of the network device.
Updated all three call sites (netdevice.c, efi_snp.c, pxe_undi.c) and
both implementations (ethernet.c, ipoib.c) of ll_protocol to use the
new argument.

Several SPI chips will respond to an SPI read command with a dummy
zero bit immediately prior to the first real data bit. This can be
used to autodetect the address length, provided that the command
length and data length are already known, and that the MISO data line
is tied high.

The pcnet32 driver mismanages its RX buffers, with the result that
packets get corrupted if more than one packet arrives between calls to
poll().

This is a major rewrite of the legacy etherboot 3c90x driver using the
gPXE API for much improved performance over the legacy driver it
replaces.
This driver has been tested on 3c905, 3c905B, and 3c905C cards.

Intel's C compiler (icc) chokes on the zero-length arrays that we
currently use as part of the mechanism for accessing linker table
entries. Abstract away the zero-length arrays, to make a port to icc
easier.
Introduce macros such as for_each_table_entry() to simplify the common
case of iterating over all entries in a linker table.
Represent table names as #defined string constants rather than
unquoted literals; this avoids visual confusion between table names
and C variable or type names, and also allows us to force a
compilation error in the event of incorrect table names.
Following the example of the Linux driver, we add a check and delay to
make sure that the NIC has finished resetting before the driver issues
any additional commands.

Some targets send a spurious CHECK CONDITION message in response to
the first SCSI command. We issue (and ignore the status of) an
arbitary harmless SCSI command (a READ CAPACITY (10)) in order to draw
out this response.
The Solaris Comstar target seems to send more than one spurious CHECK
CONDITION response. Attempt up to SCSI_MAX_DUMMY_READ_CAP dummy READ
CAPACITY (10) commands before assuming that error responses are
meaningful.
Problem reported by Kristof Van Doorsselaere <kvandoor@aserver.com>
and Shiva Shankar <802.11e@gmail.com>.
Driver was storing the result of pci_bar_start() and pci_bar_size() in
an int, rather than an unsigned long.
(Bug was introduced in the vendor's tree in commit eac85cd "Port
etherfabric driver to net_device api".)
adjust_pci_device() has historically enabled bus-mastering and I/O
cycles, but has never previously needed to enable memory cycles. Some
EFI systems seem not to enable memory cycles by default, so add that
to the list of PCI command register bits that we force on.
When compiling for the Linux kernel, PCI_BASE_ADDRESS_0 == 0, and
PCI_BASE_ADDRESS_1 == 1. This is not so when compiling for gPXE. We
must use the symbolic names rather than integers to get the correct
values.

The patch file supplied for commit 3a799e9 ("[hermon] Add PCI ID for
ConnectX QDR card") accidentally marked drivers/infiniband/hermon.c as
being executable.
This driver is based on Stefan Hajnoczi's summer work, which
is in turn based on version 1.01 of the linux b44 driver.
I just assembled the pieces and fixed/added a few pieces
here and there to make it work for my hardware.
The most major limitation is that this driver won't work
on systems with >1GB RAM due to the card not having enough
address bits for that and gPXE not working around this
limitation.
Still, other than that the driver works well enough for
at least 2 users :) and the above limitation can always
be fixed when somebody wants it bad enough :)

This brings us in to line with Linux definitions, and also simplifies
adding x86_64 support since both platforms have 2-byte shorts, 4-byte
ints and 8-byte long longs.
The return path in directed route SMPs lists the egress ports in order
from SM to node, rather than from node to SM.
To write to the correct offset within the return path, we need to
parse the hop pointer. This is held within the class-specific data
portion of the MAD header, which was previously unused by us and
defined to be a uint16_t. Define this field to be a union type; this
requires some rearrangement of ib_mad.h and corresponding changes to
ipoib.c.
