@ -5,43 +5,3 @@ This driver is supposed to support:
|

Kalahari cards (dual and quad port PCI-e Gigabit) copper and fiber

|

The driver was actually tested on Oasis and Kalahari cards.

TODO:
|

- move firmware loading to request_firmware()
|
||||
- remove direct memory access of structures
|
||||
- any remaining sparse and checkpatch.pl warnings
|
||||
|
||||
- use net_device_ops
|
||||
- use dev->stats rather than adapter->stats
|
||||
- don't cast netdev_priv it is already void
|
||||
- GET RID OF MACROS
|
||||
- work on all architectures
|
||||
- without CONFIG_X86_64 confusion
|
||||
- do 64 bit correctly
|
||||
- don't depend on order of union
|
||||
- get rid of ASSERT(), use BUG() instead but only where necessary
|
||||
looks like most aren't really useful
|
||||
- no new SIOCDEVPRIVATE ioctl allowed
|
||||
- don't use module_param for configuring interrupt mitigation
|
||||
use ethtool instead
|
||||
- reorder code to elminate use of forward declarations
|
||||
- don't keep private linked list of drivers.
|
||||
- remove all the gratiutous debug infrastructure
|
||||
- use PCI_DEVICE()
|
||||
- do ethtool correctly using ethtool_ops
|
||||
- NAPI?
|
||||
- wasted overhead of extra stats
|
||||
- state variables for things that are
|
||||
easily available and shouldn't be kept in card structure, cardnum, ...
|
||||
slotnumber, events, ...
|
||||
- get rid of slic_spinlock wrapper
|
||||
- volatile == bad design => bad code
|
||||
- locking too fine grained, not designed just throw more locks
