This is an enhancement work that began several years ago. I try to catchup with some performance improvement that has been implemented then by Havard. The ring index logic and the TX error path modification are the biggest changes but some cleanup/debugging have been added along the way. The GEM revision will benefit from the Gigabit support.
The series has been tested on several Atmel AT91 SoC with the two MACB/GEM flavors.
Havard Skinnemoen (5): net/macb: memory barriers cleanup net/macb: change debugging messages net/macb: Fix a race in macb_start_xmit() net/macb: clean up ring buffer logic net/macb: Offset first RX buffer by two bytes
Nicolas Ferre (4): net/macb: better manage tx errors net/macb: tx status is more than 8 bits now net/macb: macb_get_drvinfo: add GEM/MACB suffix to differentiate revision net/macb: ethtool interface: add register dump feature
Patrice Vilchez (1): net/macb: Add support for Gigabit Ethernet mode
