flush_work(wq, work) doesn't need the first parameter, we can use cwq->wq
(this was possible from the very beginnig, I missed this). So we can unify
flush_work_keventd and flush_work.
Also, rename flush_work() to cancel_work_sync() and fix all callers.
Perhaps this is not the best name, but "flush_work" is really bad.

Use the round_jiffies() function in e1000.
These timers all were of the "about once a second" or "about once every X
seconds" variety and several showed up in the "what wakes the cpu up" profiles
that the tickless patches provide. Some timers are highly dynamic based on
network load; but even on low activity systems they still show up so the
rounding is done only in cases of low activity, allowing higher frequency
timers in the high activity case.
The various hardware watchdogs are an obvious case; they run every 2 seconds
but aren't otherwise specific of exactly when they need to run.

This reverts commit 72f3ab7462, which was
superceded by commit 683a2aa339
("e1000: Do not truncate TSO TCP header with 82544 workaround"), which
fixed the real problem.
Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
The e1000 driver has a workaround for 82544 on PCI-X where if the
terminating byte of a buffer is at addresses 0-3 mod 8, then 4 bytes
are shaved off it and defered to a new segment. This is due to an
erratum that could otherwise cause TX hangs.
Unfortunately this breaks TSO because it may cause the TCP header to
be split over two segments which itself causes TX hangs. The solution
is to pull 4 bytes of data up from the next segment rather than pushing
4 bytes off. This ensures the TCP header remains in one piece and
works around the PCI-X hang.
This patch is based on one from Jesse Brandeburg.
This bug has been trigered by both CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB as well as Xen.
Note that the only reason we don't see this normally is because the
TCP stack starts writing from the end, i.e., it writes the TCP header
first then slaps on the IP header, etc. So the end of the TCP header
(skb->tail - 1 here) is always aligned correctly.
Had we made the start of the IP header (e.g., IPv6) 8-byte aligned
instead, this would happen for normal TCP traffic as well.

Currently after an interface up, the link state is detected 2 seconds later
when the first watchdog timer runs. This patch changes that by triggering
the hardware to generate a link-change interrupt from the up() function
instead. This has the result that the link state gets detected immediately
and without races. This has the potential to speed up booting since a normal
distribution boot process waits for a link before DHCP is attempted.

Add a new dynamic itr algorithm, with 2 modes, and make it the default
operation mode. This greatly reduces latency and increases small packet
performance, at the "cost" of some CPU utilization. Bulk traffic
throughput is unaffected.
The driver can limit the amount of interrupts per second that the
adapter will generate for incoming packets. It does this by writing a
value to the adapter that is based on the maximum amount of interrupts
that the adapter will generate per second.
Setting InterruptThrottleRate to a value greater or equal to 100 will
program the adapter to send out a maximum of that many interrupts per
second, even if more packets have come in. This reduces interrupt
load on the system and can lower CPU utilization under heavy load,
but will increase latency as packets are not processed as quickly.
The default behaviour of the driver previously assumed a static
InterruptThrottleRate value of 8000, providing a good fallback value
for all traffic types,but lacking in small packet performance and
latency. The hardware can handle many more small packets per second
however, and for this reason an adaptive interrupt moderation algorithm
was implemented.
Since 7.3.x, the driver has two adaptive modes (setting 1 or 3) in
which it dynamically adjusts the InterruptThrottleRate value based on
the traffic that it receives. After determining the type of incoming
traffic in the last timeframe, it will adjust the InterruptThrottleRate
to an appropriate value for that traffic.
The algorithm classifies the incoming traffic every interval into
classes. Once the class is determined, the InterruptThrottleRate
value is adjusted to suit that traffic type the best. There are
three classes defined: "Bulk traffic", for large amounts of packets
of normal size; "Low latency", for small amounts of traffic and/or
a significant percentage of small packets; and "Lowest latency",
for almost completely small packets or minimal traffic.
In dynamic conservative mode, the InterruptThrottleRate value is
set to 4000 for traffic that falls in class "Bulk traffic". If
traffic falls in the "Low latency" or "Lowest latency" class, the
InterruptThrottleRate is increased stepwise to 20000. This default
mode is suitable for most applications.
For situations where low latency is vital such as cluster or
grid computing, the algorithm can reduce latency even more when
InterruptThrottleRate is set to mode 1. In this mode, which operates
the same as mode 3, the InterruptThrottleRate will be increased
stepwise to 70000 for traffic in class "Lowest latency".
Setting InterruptThrottleRate to 0 turns off any interrupt moderation
and may improve small packet latency, but is generally not suitable
for bulk throughput traffic.
