We are pleased to announce a new Gigabit Ethernet product and its
driver to the linux community. This product is the Intel(R) 82575
Gigabit Ethernet adapter family. Physical adapters will be available
to the public soon. These adapters come in 2- and 4-port versions
(copper PHY) currently. Other variants will be available later.
The 82575 chipset supports significantly different features that
warrant a new driver. The descriptor format is (just like the
ixgbe driver) different. The device can use multiple MSI-X vectors
and multiple queues for both send and receive. This allows us to
optimize some of the driver code specifically as well compared to
the e1000-supported devices.
This version of the igb driver no lnger uses fake netdevices and
incorporates napi_struct members for each ring to do the multi-
queue polling. multi-queue is enabled by default and the driver
supports NAPI mode only.
All the namespace collisions should be gone in this version too. The
register macro's have been condensed to improve readability.

In some blade systems using the 5706 serdes, the hardware sometimes
does not properly generate link down interrupts. We add a workaround
in the driver's timer to force a link-down when some PHY registers
report loss of SYNC.
The parallel detect logic is cleaned up slightly to better integrate
the workaround.

It is more correct to get the status block from the bnx2_napi struct
instead of the bnx2 struct. It happens that they are the same in this
case because we are using the first MSIX vector.

After we delay device initialization until interface up, there are more
conditions for the hardware rf_kill switch states during suspend and
resume. For example, before suspend we can have interface up or down,
rf_kill enable or disable; before resume we can have rf_kill enable or
disable. So there are totally 2^3 = 8 conditions to handle. This patch
addressed this problem and makes sure every condition works correctly.
This patch also merges the device suspend and resume handlers with the
mac_start and mac_stop code since they are basically doing the same
thing.

This patch moves the firmware loading (read firmware from disk and load
it into the device SRAM) from pci_probe time to the first network
interface open time. There are two reasons for doing this:
1. To support kernel buildin iwlwifi drivers. Because kernel initializes
network devices subsystem before hard disk and SATA subsystem, it is
impossible to get the firmware image from hard disk in the PCI probe
handler. Thus delaying the firmware loading into the network
interface open time is the way to go. Note, we only read the firmware
image from hard disk the first time the interface is open. After this
is succeeded, we cache the firmware image into the host memory. This
is a performance gain when user open and close the interface multiple
times and is necessary for device suspend and resume.
2. For better power saving. When the iwlwifi modules are loaded (or
buildin the kernel) but the wireless network interface is not being
used, it is a good practice the wireless device consumes as less
power as possible. Unloading the firmware from the wireless device
and unregister the driver's interrupt handler in the network
interface close handler provides users a way to achieve this. User
space network configuration tools (i.e NetworkManager) can also
contribute here when it detects a wired cable is connected and
close the wireless interface automatically.
This patch also includes the pci_save/restore_state() fixed by Ian Schram
upon the first version.

That will be fixed later.
You can extract firmware out of the "wl_ap.o" file contained

rt2500usb and rt73usb data and desc pointer initialization
was incorrect because it was using uninitialized variables
to determine the length.
In addition rt2500usb used skb_pull and removed the ieee80211
from each received frame instead of using skb_trim to remove
the device descriptor from the frame.
Finally this also fixes the descriptor override when 4 byte
aligning occured. We still need a completely valid descriptor
when using the TX/RX dumping capabilities in debugfs.

This patch (based on Ron Rindjunsky's) creates a framework for
a unified way to pass BSS configuration to drivers that require
the information, e.g. for implementing power save mode.
This patch introduces new ieee80211_bss_conf structure that is
passed to the driver via the new bss_info_changed() callback
when the BSS configuration changes.
This new BSS configuration infrastructure adds the following
new features:
* drivers are notified of their association AID
* drivers are notified of association status
and replaces the erp_ie_changed() callback. The patch also does
the relevant driver updates for the latter change.
