28679751a9 net: dont update dev->trans_start in 10GB drivers
Followup of commits 9d21493b4b
and 08baf56108
(net: tx scalability works : trans_start)
(net: txq_trans_update() helper)

Now that core network takes care of trans_start updates, dont do it
in drivers themselves, if possible. Multi queue drivers can
avoid one cache miss (on dev->trans_start) in their start_xmit()
handler.

Exceptions are NETIF_F_LLTX drivers (vxge & tehuti)

bb145a9e28 sfc: Pad packets to 33 bytes to prevent TX packet parser lockup
The packet parser used in the TX data path for locating checksum
fields can lose synchronisation with the TX queue manager when
handling packets that look like IPv4 but are too short (17-32 bytes).
Work around this by padding to 33 bytes.

13e9ab1143 sfc: Use CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS where appropriate
For some buffers we use a starting offset of either NET_IP_ALIGN or 0
depending on whether we believe the architecture supports efficient
access to unaligned words.  There is now a config macro specifying
whether this is the case, so check that rather than checking for
specific architectures.

60ac10658c sfc: Use separate hardware TX queues to select checksum generation
Checksum generation is an attribute of our hardware TX queues, not TX
descriptors.  We previously used a single queue and turned checksum
generation on or off as requested through ethtool.  However, this can
result in regenerating checksums in raw packets that should not be
modified.  We now create 2 hardware TX queues with checksum generation
on or off.  They are presented to the net core as one queue since it
does not know how to select between them.

The self-test verifies that a bad checksum is unaltered on the queue
with checksum generation off.

8d8bb39b9e dma-mapping: add the device argument to dma_mapping_error()
Add per-device dma_mapping_ops support for CONFIG_X86_64 as POWER
architecture does:

This enables us to cleanly fix the Calgary IOMMU issue that some devices
are not behind the IOMMU (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/5/8/423).

I think that per-device dma_mapping_ops support would be also helpful for
KVM people to support PCI passthrough but Andi thinks that this makes it
difficult to support the PCI passthrough (see the above thread).  So I
CC'ed this to KVM camp.  Comments are appreciated.

A pointer to dma_mapping_ops to struct dev_archdata is added.  If the
pointer is non NULL, DMA operations in asm/dma-mapping.h use it.  If it's
NULL, the system-wide dma_ops pointer is used as before.

If it's useful for KVM people, I plan to implement a mechanism to register
a hook called when a new pci (or dma capable) device is created (it works
with hot plugging).  It enables IOMMUs to set up an appropriate
dma_mapping_ops per device.

The major obstacle is that dma_mapping_error doesn't take a pointer to the
device unlike other DMA operations.  So x86 can't have dma_mapping_ops per
device.  Note all the POWER IOMMUs use the same dma_mapping_error function
so this is not a problem for POWER but x86 IOMMUs use different
dma_mapping_error functions.

The first patch adds the device argument to dma_mapping_error.  The patch
is trivial but large since it touches lots of drivers and dma-mapping.h in
all the architecture.

This patch:

dma_mapping_error() doesn't take a pointer to the device unlike other DMA
operations.  So we can't have dma_mapping_ops per device.

Note that POWER already has dma_mapping_ops per device but all the POWER
IOMMUs use the same dma_mapping_error function.  x86 IOMMUs use device
argument.

b9b39b625c [netdrvr] sfc: Add TSO support
The SFC4000 controller does not have hardware support for TSO, and the
core GSO code incurs a high cost in allocating and freeing skbs.  This
TSO implementation uses lightweight packet header structures and is
substantially faster.
