	410 Severn Ave., Suite 210

	Annapolis MD 21403

	Linux Kernel Additions:

 	0.99H+lk0.9 - David S. Miller - softnet, PCI DMA updates

		Update for new 2.3.x module interface

	LK1.1.2 (March 19, 2000)

	* New PCI interface (jgarzik)

    LK1.1.3 25 April 2000, Andrew Morton <andrewm@uow.edu.au>

    - Merged with 3c575_cb.c

    - Don't set RxComplete in boomerang interrupt enable reg

    - spinlock in vortex_timer to protect mdio functions

    - disable local interrupts around call to vortex_interrupt in

      vortex_tx_timeout() (So vortex_interrupt can use spin_lock())

    - Select window 3 in vortex_timer()'s write to Wn3_MAC_Ctrl

    - In vortex_start_xmit(), move the lock to _after_ we've altered

      vp->cur_tx and vp->tx_full.  This defeats the race between

      vortex_start_xmit() and vortex_interrupt which was identified

      by Bogdan Costescu.

    - Merged back support for six new cards from various sources

    - Set vortex_have_pci if pci_module_init returns zero (fixes cardbus

      insertion oops)

    - Tell it that 3c905C has NWAY for 100bT autoneg

    - Fix handling of SetStatusEnd in 'Too much work..' code, as

      per 2.3.99's 3c575_cb (Dave Hinds).

    - Split ISR into two for vortex & boomerang

    - Fix MOD_INC/DEC races

    - Handle resource allocation failures.

    - Fix 3CCFE575CT LED polarity

    - Make tx_interrupt_mitigation the default

    LK1.1.4 25 April 2000, Andrew Morton <andrewm@uow.edu.au>    

    - Add extra TxReset to vortex_up() to fix 575_cb hotplug initialisation probs.

    - Put vortex_info_tbl into __devinitdata

    - In the vortex_error StatsFull HACK, disable stats in vp->intr_enable as well

      as in the hardware.

    - Increased the loop counter in issue_and_wait from 2,000 to 4,000.

    LK1.1.5 28 April 2000, andrewm

    - Added powerpc defines (John Daniel <jdaniel@etresoft.com> said these work...)

    - Some extra diagnostics

    - In vortex_error(), reset the Tx on maxCollisions.  Otherwise most

      chips usually get a Tx timeout.

    - Added extra_reset module parm

    - Replaced some inline timer manip with mod_timer

      (Franois romieu <Francois.Romieu@nic.fr>)

    - In vortex_up(), don't make Wn3_config initialisation dependent upon has_nway

      (this came across from 3c575_cb).

    LK1.1.6 06 Jun 2000, andrewm

    - Backed out the PPC defines.

    - Use del_timer_sync(), mod_timer().

    - Fix wrapped ulong comparison in boomerang_rx()

    - Add IS_TORNADO, use it to suppress 3c905C checksum error msg

      (Donald Becker, I Lee Hetherington <ilh@sls.lcs.mit.edu>)

    - Replace union wn3_config with BFINS/BFEXT manipulation for

      sparc64 (Pete Zaitcev, Peter Jones)

    - In vortex_error, do_tx_reset and vortex_tx_timeout(Vortex):

      do a netif_wake_queue() to better recover from errors. (Anders Pedersen,

      Donald Becker)

    - Print a warning on out-of-memory (rate limited to 1 per 10 secs)

    - Added two more Cardbus 575 NICs: 5b57 and 6564 (Paul Wagland)

    LK1.1.7 2 Jul 2000 andrewm

    - Better handling of shared IRQs

    - Reset the transmitter on a Tx reclaim error

    - Fixed crash under OOM during vortex_open() (Mark Hemment)

    - Fix Rx cessation problem during OOM (help from Mark Hemment)

    - The spinlocks around the mdio access were blocking interrupts for 300uS.

      Fix all this to use spin_lock_bh() within mdio_read/write

    - Only write to TxFreeThreshold if it's a boomerang - other NICs don't

      have one.

    - Added 802.3x MAC-layer flow control support

   LK1.1.8 13 Aug 2000 andrewm

    - Ignore request_region() return value - already reserved if Cardbus.

    - Merged some additional Cardbus flags from Don's 0.99Qk

    - Some fixes for 3c556 (Fred Maciel)

    - Fix for EISA initialisation (Jan Rekorajski)

    - Renamed MII_XCVR_PWR and EEPROM_230 to align with 3c575_cb and D. Becker's drivers

    - Fixed MII_XCVR_PWR for 3CCFE575CT

    - Added INVERT_LED_PWR, used it.

    - Backed out the extra_reset stuff

   LK1.1.9 12 Sep 2000 andrewm

    - Backed out the tx_reset_resume flags.  It was a no-op.

    - In vortex_error, don't reset the Tx on txReclaim errors

    - In vortex_error, don't reset the Tx on maxCollisions errors.

      Hence backed out all the DownListPtr logic here.

    - In vortex_error, give Tornado cards a partial TxReset on

      maxCollisions (David Hinds).  Defined MAX_COLLISION_RESET for this.

    - Redid some driver flags and device names based on pcmcia_cs-3.1.20.

    - Fixed a bug where, if vp->tx_full is set when the interface

      is downed, it remains set when the interface is upped.  Bad

      things happen.

   LK1.1.10 17 Sep 2000 andrewm

    - Added EEPROM_8BIT for 3c555 (Fred Maciel)

    - Added experimental support for the 3c556B Laptop Hurricane (Louis Gerbarg)

    - Add HAS_NWAY to "3c900 Cyclone 10Mbps TPO"

   LK1.1.11 13 Nov 2000 andrewm

    - Dump MOD_INC/DEC_USE_COUNT, use SET_MODULE_OWNER

   LK1.1.12 1 Jan 2001 andrewm (2.4.0-pre1)

    - Call pci_enable_device before we request our IRQ (Tobias Ringstrom)

    - Add 3c590 PCI latency timer hack to vortex_probe1 (from 0.99Ra)

    - Added extended issue_and_wait for the 3c905CX.

    - Look for an MII on PHY index 24 first (3c905CX oddity).

    - Add HAS_NWAY to 3cSOHO100-TX (Brett Frankenberger)

    - Don't free skbs we don't own on oom path in vortex_open().

   LK1.1.13 27 Jan 2001

    - Added explicit `medialock' flag so we can truly

      lock the media type down with `options'.

    - "check ioremap return and some tidbits" (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@conectiva.com.br>)

    - Added and used EEPROM_NORESET for 3c556B PM resumes.

    - Fixed leakage of vp->rx_ring.

    - Break out separate HAS_HWCKSM device capability flag.

    - Kill vp->tx_full (ANK)

    - Merge zerocopy fragment handling (ANK?)

   LK1.1.14 15 Feb 2001

    - Enable WOL.  Can be turned on with `enable_wol' module option.

    - EISA and PCI initialisation fixes (jgarzik, Manfred Spraul)

    - If a device's internalconfig register reports it has NWAY,

      use it, even if autoselect is enabled.

   LK1.1.15 6 June 2001 akpm

    - Prevent double counting of received bytes (Lars Christensen)

    - Add ethtool support (jgarzik)

    - Add module parm descriptions (Andrzej M. Krzysztofowicz)

    - Implemented alloc_etherdev() API

    - Special-case the 'Tx error 82' message.

   LK1.1.16 18 July 2001 akpm

    - Make NETIF_F_SG dependent upon nr_free_highpages(), not on CONFIG_HIGHMEM

    - Lessen verbosity of bootup messages

    - Fix WOL - use new PM API functions.

    - Use netif_running() instead of vp->open in suspend/resume.

    - Don't reset the interface logic on open/close/rmmod.  It upsets

      autonegotiation, and hence DHCP (from 0.99T).

    - Back out EEPROM_NORESET flag because of the above (we do it for all

      NICs).

    - Correct 3c982 identification string

    - Rename wait_for_completion() to issue_and_wait() to avoid completion.h

      clash.

   LK1.1.17 18Dec01 akpm

    - PCI ID 9805 is a Python-T, not a dual-port Cyclone.  Apparently.

      And it has NWAY.

    - Mask our advertised modes (vp->advertising) with our capabilities

	  (MII reg5) when deciding which duplex mode to use.

    - Add `global_options' as default for options[].  Ditto global_enable_wol,

      global_full_duplex.

   LK1.1.18 01Jul02 akpm

    - Fix for undocumented transceiver power-up bit on some 3c566B's

      (Donald Becker, Rahul Karnik)

    - See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/#3c59x-2.3 for more details.

    - Also see Documentation/networking/vortex.txt

   LK1.1.19 10Nov02 Marc Zyngier <maz@wild-wind.fr.eu.org>

    - EISA sysfs integration.
