that will start coming in early januari I think. We're currently validating all silicon 
that the code supports against the old and new code, and that is going to take quite 
some time to finish!

[PATCH 00/18] e1000: features, updates, documentation

[Kok, Auke]

Hi,

Here are patches for e1000 for #upstream in netdev-2.6.git. Most of the
patches are maintenance and minor fixes only, but a few are significant
and more complex:

o Patch to enable IPv6 TSO for all e1000 hardware
o Add support for 3 newly packaged existing silicon devices
o Add a MSI interrupt servicing routine for pci-e hardware
o Add dynamic interrupt moderation algorithm favouring low latency but
  not affecting bulk throughput traffic situations. This improves small
  packet performance significantly.

(Summary below.)


These changes are available through git.

Jeff, please pull:

git pull git://lost.foo-projects.org/~ahkok/git/netdev-2.6 upstream

these patches are against
 netdev-2.6#upstream a01ad6b4b316afb7f9c48bde3590c0d6c063b1b4


Cheers,

Auke
