Firmware Version 2.01a3 (w/ 5.12a5 Universal Boot Code)
New Features
* Enhanced timeout notifications for processing abort failures.
Problems Fixed:
1. All multi-abort I/Os are returned on the same ring from which the ABORT_MXRI command was received.
2. Changed the TRCV response in the abort state to CMD RJT to enable the TRSP to be processed.
3. Corrected an issue with blocked TSEND operations.
4. Corrected a buffer leak issue with RRQ exchanges.
5. Corrected an issue where the TRCV IOCB was de-queued improperly causing a XFR_RDY flood.
6. Corrected an issue where the OXID field was not loaded in the XRI_ABORTED IOCB.
7. Corrected an issue in recognizing whether an EEPROM is present.
Dependencies: - The corresponding FC Storport device driver and OneCommand Manager Core-kit (management) will need to be installed for this package to function properly.
1. 118933 Fixed an issues booting when more than 8 ports are present in the system and fixed an adapter display issue when more than 8 ports are present in the systems 2. 118933 Fixed issues installing and booting O/Ss on ports greater than 8. 3. 121923 Fixed issues installing and booting O/Ss on ports greater than 8. 4. 122286 Fixed some boot time screen display issues.
(2) OpenBoot version 3.10a3

Problems fixed, features added or other updates:
1. Unrelated to IBM
(3) EFIBoot version 4.12a12

Problems fixed, features added or other updates:
1. Only certain OEM HBAs will locate PlatformToDriverConfigurationProtocolGuid. Others just skip and continue processing 2. UEFI2.3 Hii Configuration Utility changes 3. HII Browser Save option does not work
1. CR105423 - On a port connected to a 3PAR "MBOD" cage, the test runs IO to the disk drives and issues a "controlport offline" command to offline the port while IO is running.
2. CR111194 - While doing target side cable pull testing with Block Guard (T10) Enabled we observed that adapter is not sending RSCN to AIX.
3. CR111625 - *IBM defect 775960 - HBQ ring index pointers?
5. CR111928 - 3PAR - LR with port and subsequent FLOGI failing.

tg3: Avoid panic from reserved statblk field access
When RSS is enabled, interrupt vector 0 does not receive any rx traffic. The rx producer index fields for vector 0's status block should be considered reserved in this case.

tg3: Fix RSS ring refill race condition
The RSS feature in tg3 hardware has only one rx producer ring for all RSS rings. NAPI vector 1 is special and handles the refilling of the rx producer ring on behalf of all RSS rings. There is a race condition between these RSS NAPIs and the NAPI[1]. If NAPI[1] finishes checking for refill and then another RSS ring empties the rx producer ring before NAPI[1] exits NAPI, the chip will be completely out of SKBs in the rx producer ring.
We fix this by adding a flag tp->rx_refill and rely on napi_schedule()/ napi_complete() to help synchronize it to close the race condition.
Update driver version to 3.123.

tg3: Fix tg3_get_stats64 for 5700 / 5701 devs
tg3_get_stats64() takes tp->lock when dealing with non-serdes bcm5700 and bcm5701 devices. However, functions that call tg3_halt() have already acquired tp->lock. When tg3_get_stats64() is called in tg3_halt(), deadlock will occur.
This patch fixes the problem by separating the stat gathering code into a new tg3_get_nstats() function. tg3_get_stats64() is recoded to call this function and take tp->lock. The code that takes tp->lock in tg3_calc_crc_errors() has been removed. Function signatures have been cleaned up too.

tg3: Clear RECOVERY_PENDING with reset_task_cancel
If an error happens in the tx completion thread, tg3_reset_task will be scheduled and TX_RECOVERY_PENDING will be set. The TX_RECOVERY_PENDING flag causes tg3_poll[_msix] to return early before doing much of its work. Tg3_reset_task() gets canceled when the configuration of the device is changing, which always results in a chip reset. When this happens, the TX_RECOVERY_PENDING flag may be left set, which would unnecessarily hinder tg3_poll from doing work. This patch fixes the problem.

tg3: Fix single-vector MSI-X code
Kdump kernels leave MSI-X interrupts (as setup by the crashed kernel) enabled. However, kdump only enables one CPU in the new environment, thus causing tg3 to abort MSI-X setup. When the driver attempts to enable INTA or MSI interrupt modes on a kdump kernel, interrupt delivery fails.

tg3: Scale back code that modifies MRRS
Tg3 normally gets a performance boost by increasing the PCI Maximum Read Request Size (MRRS) to 4k. Unfortunately, this is causing some problems on particular hardware platforms. This patch removes all code that modifies the MRRS except for one case.
As part of a solution to fix an internal FIFO problem on the 5719, the driver artificially capped the MRRS to 2k for the entire 5719, and later 5720, ASIC revs. This was overly aggressive and only really needed to be done for the 5719 A0. In the spirit of the rest of this patch, the driver will only reprogram the MRRS for this device if the value exceeds the 2k cap.

tg3: Fix TSO CAP for 5704 devs w / ASF enabled
On the earliest TSO capable devices, TSO was accomplished through firmware. The TSO cannot coexist with ASF management firmware though. The tg3 driver determines whether or not ASF is enabled by calling tg3_get_eeprom_hw_cfg(), which checks a particular bit of NIC memory. Commit dabc5c670d3f86d15ee4f42ab38ec5bd2682487d, entitled "tg3: Move TSO_CAPABLE assignment", accidentally moved the code that determines TSO capabilities earlier than the call to tg3_get_eeprom_hw_cfg(). As a consequence, the driver was attempting to determine TSO capabilities before it had all the data it needed to make the decision.
This patch fixes the problem by revisiting and reevaluating the decision after tg3_get_eeprom_hw_cfg() is called.

Commit 28011cf19b (net: Add ethtool to mii advertisment conversion helpers) added a helper function ethtool_adv_to_mii_100bt() and tg3_copper_is_advertising_all(), tg3_phy_autoneg_cfg() were modified to use this. Before that commit, ethtool to mii advertisement conversion was done wrt speed, but now pause operation is also taken account. So, in tg3_copper_is_advertising_all(), below condition becomes true and this makes link up fails.
if ((adv_reg & ADVERTISE_ALL) != all_mask) return 0;
To fix this add ADVERTISE_ALL bit and operation to cap speed, and change default advertisement not including ADVERTISED_Pause.

tg3: switch to build_skb() infrastructure
This is very similar to bnx2x conversion, but simpler since no special alignement is required, so goal was not to reduce skb truesize.
Using build_skb() reduces cache line misses in the driver, since we use cache hot skb instead of cold ones. Number of in-flight sk_buff structures is lower, they are more likely recycled in SLUB caches while still hot.

tg3: Eliminate timer race with reset_task
During shutdown, it is impossible to reliably disable the timer and reset_task threads. Each thread can schedule the other, which leads to shutdown code that chases its tail.
To fix the problem, this patch removes the ability of tg3_reset_task to schedule a new timer thread. To support this change, tg3_timer no longer terminates itself, but rather goes into a polling mode.

tg3: Schedule at most one tg3_reset_task run
It is possible for multiple threads in the tg3 driver to each attempt to schedule a run of tg3_reset_task(). The multiple tg3_reset_task executions could all wind up on the same queue (and execute serially) or wind up on the queues of another processor (which could execute in parallel). Either scenario is not what was truly desired.
This patch adds a new flag, TG3_FLAG_RESET_TASK_PENDING, and uses it to determine whether or not to schedule another run of tg3_reset_task(). With the new flag comes two new functions to facilitate scheduling and descheduling of tg3_reset_task().

tg3: Fix 4k tx bd segmentation code
The new 4k tx bd segmentation code had a bug in the error cleanup path. If the driver did not map all the physical fragments, the abort path would wind up advancing the producer index beyond the point where the setup code stopped. This would ultimately turn into a tx recovery error where the driver would expect the skb pointer to be set when it isn't. This patch fixes the problem, and then makes the code a little easier to understand.

APE mutex register blocks are shared by all ports of multiport devices. For some mutexing purposes, each function is assigned their own register. For other cases, each function is assigned its own request and grant bits of a single register. For the latter cases, the tg3 driver is incorrectly allowing each function to use the same set of grant / request bits. This patch fixes the code so that each function uses the appropriate bitset.
