        * src/if_upd985xx.c: 
        Need to include <pkgconf/io_eth_drivers.h> for proper configuration
        of stand-alone (polled) vs. system (interrupt driven) mode.

2001-09-13  Hugo Tyson  <hmt@redhat.com>

        * src/if_upd985xx.c (upd985xx_eth_upd985xx_init): Fake an ESA if
        we see all ones from the EEPROM as well as all zeros.

2001-08-30  Hugo Tyson  <hmt@redhat.com>

        * cdl/upd985xx_eth_drivers.cdl: Make the "..._E2ONLY" workaround
        option on by default since this is how it will be used - the CPU
        load does suffer somewhat if promisc mode is set in the hardware.
        This should be unset to allow the workaround for E1 at 100Mbit.

2001-08-30  Hugo Tyson  <hmt@redhat.com>

        * src/if_upd985xx.c (PacketRxReady): Re-write the manual
        implementation of ESA matching for workaround E1E2 when the device
        is in promiscuous mode.  It was having problems with the previous
        version; this works better.

2001-08-24  Hugo Tyson  <hmt@redhat.com>

        * cdl/upd985xx_eth_drivers.cdl: Configury for an alternate case
        where we workaround hardware bug E2 only, as a subset of the E1E2
        complete fix.  Added more description to the options too.

        * src/if_upd985xx.c (eth_upd985xx_configure): Handle an alternate
        case where we workaround hardware bug E2 only.  This means leaving
        the device in normal mode (unless set to promisc) and doing MAC
        address filtering by hand anyway.

2001-08-20  Hugo Tyson  <hmt@redhat.com>

        * src/if_upd985xx.c: Guard all entrypoints that can mess with
        hardware state by "active" check.  If the net is included in an
        app, but not used, it is init'd but not started - this can leave a
        pending interrupt from RedBoot's use of the network to take us
        completely by surprise.  So init() acks and masks the interrupt,
        can_send(), recv() and deliver() now demur if not active.
        Also some additional STATIC's on entrypoint functions.

2001-08-16  Hugo Tyson  <hmt@redhat.com>

        * src/if_upd985xx.c (upd985xx_eth_upd985xx_init): If the EEPROM
        contains nothing (or isn't fitted?) fake an ESA so we can get
        RedBoot going on the board without special configury.

2001-08-16  Hugo Tyson  <hmt@redhat.com>

        * src/if_upd985xx.c (eth_upd985xx_configure): Use smaller numbers
        for the Tx Fill Threshold [TX_FLTH] and DMA Tx Burst Size [DTBS]
        because the hardware is even more broken than first throught -
        this is new information on fault E4.  I also tagged this with the
        name of the option we would use if this were cdl controlled - but
        since it's just setup I see no need to change it, so no CDL.

2001-08-16  Hugo Tyson  <hmt@redhat.com>

        * src/if_upd985xx.c (TxDone): Since it still wedged occasionally,
        with an "out of rx buffers" status but nothing else, this is a
        much simplified workaround for bug E8.  If we see the suspect
        transmit status, simply reset the whole subsystem there and then.
        This leaves it in far more of a known state.  It's neater anyway.

2001-08-15  Hugo Tyson  <hmt@redhat.com>

        * src/if_upd985xx.c (eth_upd985xx_send): Small hacks to recover
        from various wedged states with bogus or unexpected ETH_ISR
        values...  0x80000000: We detect this in the deliver routine and
        totally reset the system.  "out of rx buffers" with no "good rx":
        we unmask and check for all these RX interrupts, not just "good
        rx".  Also PacketRxReady() shortcuts to resetting the receive
        engine when it sees the problem.  I suspect these might be caused
        by the E8 workaround below, perhaps introducing some race
        condition with turning off the receiver just when it rx'd - and of
        course E1E2 means it receives far more packets.

2001-08-07  Hugo Tyson  <hmt@redhat.com>

        * src/if_upd985xx.c: Workaround various bugs in the hardware;
        these workarounds are conditionally compiled via CDL options named
        CYGOPT_DEVS_ETH_MIPS_UPD985XX_HARDWARE_BUGS_xxx in general; 'xxx'
        is the reference for the mis-feature.  All are enabled by default.

        To summarize:
        (eth_upd985xx_reset): xxx=S1: insert reads between writes to the
        device to avoid a possible deadlock; macro FLUSH_WRITES().
        (PacketRxReady): xxx=E1E2: we set the device in promiscuous mode
        always, and implement ESA matching in code.  The cost is small.
        If promisc mode is set by the stack, we pass all packets.
        (eth_upd985xx_send): xxx=E3: we copy any transmit that uses 3 or
        more SGs into a static contiguous buffer and transmit from that
        thus using only one buffer descriptor.
        (eth_upd985xx_send):
        (TxDone): xxx=E8: we make a note that a tx ended badly and when
        starting the next tx, we disable and reset the transmitter.

        * cdl/upd985xx_eth_drivers.cdl: New subcomponent for controlling
        these workarounds: CYGPKG_DEVS_ETH_MIPS_UPD985XX_HARDWARE_BUGS.
        "Workarounds for Ethernet Hardware bugs"

2001-07-16  Hugo Tyson  <hmt@redhat.com>

        * src/if_upd985xx.c (PacketRxReady): Test for, rather than assert,
        packet size in range.  The hardware can report a tiny packet as
        AOK, with no bad in the status, despite the doc's reassurances.

2001-07-13  Hugo Tyson  <hmt@redhat.com>

        * cdl/upd985xx_eth_drivers.cdl: Turn off the startup chatter.

2001-07-13  Hugo Tyson  <hmt@redhat.com>

        * src/if_upd985xx.c (TxDone): Test a few more bits for tx
        complete; it turns out you can get tx underruns when the CPU us
        heavily loaded, as in the tcp_echo tests with high load.

2001-07-13  Hugo Tyson  <hmt@redhat.com>

        * src/if_upd985xx.c (eth_upd985xx_send): Use HAL_DCACHE_STORE()
        rather than syncing the whole of cache every sglist entry(=mbuf).
        Turns out the cache op must be cache line aligned to work on the
        4120, boo, unlike other MIPS and unlike the doc, even.

2001-07-12  Hugo Tyson  <hmt@redhat.com>

        * cdl/upd985xx_eth_drivers.cdl (CYGPKG_DEVS_ETH_MIPS_UPD985XX_ETH0):
        Whole new section to address configuring the source of the MAC
        address.  Also allows configury of the device's name ("eth0") for
        cohabitation with additional devices.

        * src/if_upd985xx.c (upd985xx_eth_upd985xx_init): Pick up the ESA
        from EEPROM if it's available, also support a fixed ESA from CDL
        configuration land.  A few minor changes to the structure
        initialization to accommodate this; also pick up the interrupt
        vector from struct init.
        (eth_set_mac_address): New routine available via the ioctl()
        entry, for use when neither a fixed nor EEPROM address is
        available.

2001-07-12  Hugo Tyson  <hmt@redhat.com>

        * src/if_upd985xx.c (NUM_RXBUFS): Reduce NUM_RXBUFS to 8; IME
        fewer results in lost rx's in typical systems.  Enlarge rx buffers
        slightly, to accommodate oversize VLAN packets.  128 bytes extra
        should be enough.  Implemented eth_upd985xx_configure() selection
        of promiscuous mode and allow oversize packets - up to the allowed
        oversize.  Otherwise we would get confused if a packet ate more
        than 1 rx buffer.

2001-07-12  Hugo Tyson  <hmt@redhat.com>

        * src/if_upd985xx.c: Tidy up debug print defaults; make functions
        static; add a few extra statistics to the device object; pass a
        p_eth_upd985xx around more consistently for if we switch to
        multiple devices in future; comment out mii_write(); handle
        stopping the device with a tx pending; remove some commented-out
        templates copied from another driver; and fill in SNMP statistics.
        In other words, many minor changes.

2001-07-11  Hugo Tyson  <hmt@redhat.com>

        * src/if_upd985xx.c (PacketRxReady): Recover from running out of
        receive buffers.  All very dodgy, but it seems to work.
        Additional efforts are also made to reset the device, having
        realized how hard it is to re-initialize the receive engine once
        it has been awakened.

2001-07-11  Hugo Tyson  <hmt@redhat.com>

        * src/if_upd985xx.c: Efficient Rx now essentially working, with a
        simple circular buffer, always linked into a ring, and one entry
        of which is always NULL,NULL to bring the rx machinery to a halt.
        If it reaches thus far the rx mechanism seems to jam; will deal
        with that next.

2001-07-09  Hugo Tyson  <hmt@redhat.com>

        * src/if_upd985xx.c: Rejigged version of the rx buffer system;
        still not working properly, still not a good match for the
        hardware's elusive semantics.  Committed anyway, to keep it around
        for reference.
        (eth_upd985xx_status): Also removed all the cruft about
        renegotiating line status; it's not needed.

2001-07-06  Hugo Tyson  <hmt@redhat.com>

        * include/upd985xx_eth.h (ETH_MADR_PHY_DEVICE_PHYS_ADDRESS):
        Change name of PHY address symbol to generic not SEEQ.  
        Comment out the non-standard symbols for useful bits that the
        previous PHY device supported.

        * src/if_upd985xx.c (eth_upd985xx_reset): If there is a valid ESA
        in the MAC already, run with it - it would have come from the
        not-fitted serial EEPROM, via some different registers.
        (upd985xx_eth_upd985xx_init): Moved the call to reset about to
        accommodate this.
        (eth_upd985xx_status): Omit renegotiation of link properties and
        use the intersection of the capabilities bits to report what
        speed, duplex, we are running at.  More portable.
        (mii_write):
        (mii_read): Change name of PHY address symbol to generic not SEEQ
        'cos the board has changed.

2001-07-06  Hugo Tyson  <hmt@redhat.com>

        * ChangeLog:
        * cdl/upd985xx_eth_drivers.cdl:
        * include/upd985xx_eth.h:
        * src/if_upd985xx.c:
        New files.  Initial checkin of limping along version of 
        NEC upd985xx ethernet driver.

        Limitations:
        ESA is hard coded.
        It talks to the PHY just to make sure - helped with debug anyway.
        No SNMP data exported.
        No ioctl() for promiscuous mode or VLAN mode.
        Only one TX at once.
        Only one RX buffer, so no RX until serviced.
        It seems to loose interrupts - inevitably, for an eth device - and
        there's no "catchup" defense against this yet.

        It's oriented to the "old" (already) board - so the particular PHY
        and GPIO layout.
