57abad25f8 [PATCH] IB/ipath: fix lost interrupts on HT-400
Do an extra check to see if in-memory tail changed while processing packets,
and if so, going back through the loop again (but only once per call to
ipath_kreceive()).  In practice, this seems to be enough to guarantee that if
we crossed the clearing of an interrupt at start of ipath_intr with a
scheduled tail register update, that we'll process the "extra" packet that
lost the interrupt because we cleared it just as it was about to arrive.

f5f99929ac [PATCH] IB/ipath: fixed bug 9776 for real
The problem was that I was updating the head register multiple times in the
rcvhdrq processing loop, and setting the counter on each update.  Since that
meant that the tail register was ahead of head for all but the last update, we
would get extra interrupts.  The fix was to not write the counter value except
on the last update.

I also changed to update rcvhdrhead and rcvegrindexhead at most every 16
packets, if there were lots of packets in the queue (and of course, on the
last packet, regardless).

I also made some small cleanups while debugging this.

With these changes, xeon/monty typically sees two openib packets per interrupt
on sdp and ipoib, opteron/monty is about 1.25 pkts/intr.

I'm seeing about 3800 Mbit/s monty/xeon, and 5000-5100 opteron/monty with
netperf sdp.  Netpipe doesn't show as good as that, peaking at about 4400 on
opteron/monty sdp.  Plain ipoib xeon is about 2100+ netperf, opteron 2900+, at
128KB

13aef4942c [PATCH] IB/ipath: reduce overhead on receive interrupts
Also count the number of interrupts where that works (fastrcvint).  On any
interrupt where the port0 head and tail registers are not equal, just call the
ipath_kreceive code without reading the interrupt status, thus saving the
approximately 0.25usec processor stall waiting for the read to return.  If any
other interrupt bits are set, or head==tail, take the normal path, but that
has been reordered to handle read ahead of pioavail.  Also no longer call
ipath_kreceive() from ipath_qcheck(), because that just seems to make things
worse, and isn't really buying us anything, these days.

Also no longer loop in ipath_kreceive(); better to not hold things off too
long (I saw many cases where we would loop 4-8 times, and handle thousands (up
to 3500) in a single call).

f37bda9246 [PATCH] IB/ipath: memory management cleanups
Made in-memory rcvhdrq tail update be in dma_alloc'ed memory, not random user
or special kernel (needed for ppc, also "just the right thing to do").

Some cleanups to make unexpected link transitions less likely to produce
complaints about packet errors, and also to not leave SMA packets stuck and
unable to go out.

A few other random debug and comment cleanups.

Always init rcvhdrq head/tail registers to 0, to avoid race conditions (should
have been that way some time ago).

c71c30dcba IB/ipath: prevent hardware from being accessed during reset
The reset code now turns off the PRESENT flag during a reset, so that
other code won't attempt to access a device that's in mid-reset.

108ecf0d90 IB/ipath: misc driver support code
EEPROM support, interrupt handling, statistics gathering, and write
combining management for x86_64.

A note regarding i2c: The Atmel EEPROM hardware we use looks like an
i2c device electrically, but is not i2c compliant at all from a
functional perspective.  We tried using the kernel's i2c support to
talk to it, but failed.

Normal i2c devices have a single 7-bit or 10-bit i2c address that they
respond to.  Valid 7-bit addresses range from 0x03 to 0x77.  Addresses
0x00 to 0x02 and 0x78 to 0x7F are special reserved addresses
(e.g. 0x00 is the "general call" address.)  The Atmel device, on the
other hand, responds to ALL addresses.  It's designed to be the only
device on a given i2c bus.  A given i2c device address corresponds to
the memory address within the i2c device itself.

At least one reason why the linux core i2c stuff won't work for this
is that it prohibits access to reserved addresses like 0x00, which are
really valid addresses on the Atmel devices.
