- Advertise 1G KX4 in CL73 when 1G speed capability is enabled - Add flow-control negotiation over CL73 - External loopback test on Serdes should be done in FORCE mode, since in CL73 it is unable to link up with the same core using AUTONEG - Fix bnx2x_set_led function to support CL73 link leds Signed-off-by:

This code should not have resided in the driver. Now that we have a new interface, this logic can reside in the application that whishes to upgrade the PHY FW Signed-off-by:

There are 3 operations that the driver needs to support to allow applications to access the PHY FW (on top of the MDC/MDIO access). Since those are essentially nvram access commands, adding them to the ethtool -E interface. Signed-off-by:

Adding support for BCM8727 - a dual port SFP+ PHY. That includes verification of the optic module vendor and part number - the list of approved modules resides on the nvram and the module is verified by the FW. Since not all users would like to use this verification feature, it can be disabled. The default behavior is to issue a warning if the module is not approved, but still allow using it - but it is also possible to disable the link if the module is not approved. Signed-off-by:

Supporting non-default pre-emphasis settings for the internal and some external PHYs Signed-off-by:

Also adding the ability to recognize the optic module and disable it if it is not authorized for safety reasons - since this feature might upset some users which are willing to take the risk, it is optional and can be disabled by setting an nvram bit (or a trivial driver patch to set this bit). This dual port PHY requires special handling if the ports are swapped. Signed-off-by:

These are now defined in linux/mii.h and the bnx2x driver defines different values which are shared with hardware data structures. So add a "BNX2X_" prefix to these macro names. Based upon a report from Stephen Rothwell. Signed-off-by:

8073 PHY changes The initial support we had for this PHY needs some serious changing. The major change is that this PHY should be initialized only when the first function is loaded and not for each function. The official SPI-ROM of this PHY was released and it requires some changes in the initialization code as well Signed-off-by:

Pause settings - 1G pause was not working due to missing write to the emac block (TX_MODE_FLOW_EN) - The flow control should use the negotiated result (after autoneg) so we should save both the requested autoneg and the result - The HW credits with flow control at 1G speed were not optimized and caused low throughput - It is recommended to turn off flow control if the MTU is bigger than 5000B due to internal buffers size Signed-off-by:

This patch is int the new bnx2x_link files (C and H). The files are still not used in this patch, only in the next one so the patch will be small enough for the mailing list. Signed-off-by:
