When there is heavy traffic and the cable is pulled, the driver must reset the adapter to flush the Tx queue in hardware. This causes the reset path to be scheduled and logs the message "Reset adapter" which could be mis- interpreted as an error by the user. Change how the reset path is invoked for this scenario by using the same method done in an existing work-around for 80003es2lan (i.e. set a flag and if the flag is set in the reset code do not log the "Reset adapter" message since the reset is expected). Re-name the FLAG_RX_RESTART_NOW to FLAG_RESTART_NOW since it is used for resets in both the Rx and Tx specific code.

Energy Efficient Ethernet on 82579 and I217 should only be enabled if not disabled by the user, if the link is full duplex and the link partner has similar EEE capabilities (stored in different EMI registers on the two different parts). After enabling EEE, read the IEEE MMD register 3.1 (which is also stored in different EMI registers on the two different parts) to clear the count of received Tx/Rx LPI indications. Also, rename I217_EEE_100_SUPPORTED to I82579_EEE_100_SUPPORTED to indicate the bit is valid starting with I82579 (released before I217).

When data blocks are written to the EEPROM, the HW/SW/FW semaphore must be held for the duration. With large data blocks on 80003es2lan, 82571 and 82572, this can take too long and cause the firmware to take ownership of the semaphore and consequently ownership of writes to the EEPROM. Instead, acquire and release the semaphore for each page of the block written.

Since submit 621b4d66 the bnx2x driver support FW GRO. However, when using the device with GRO enabled in bridging scenarios throughput is very low, as the bridge expects all incoming packets to be passed with CHECKSUM_PARTIAL - a demand which is satisfied by the SW GRO implementation, but was missed in the bnx2x driver implementation (which returned CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY). Now, given that the traffic is supported by FW GRO (TCP/IP), the bnx2x driver calculates the pseudo checksum by itself, passing skbs with CHECKSUM_PARTIAL and giving a much better throughput when receiving GRO traffic.

This patch corrects some problems with LSM/SELinux that were introduced with the multiqueue patchset. The problem stems from the fact that the multiqueue work changed the relationship between the tun device and its associated socket; before the socket persisted for the life of the device, however after the multiqueue changes the socket only persisted for the life of the userspace connection (fd open). For non-persistent devices this is not an issue, but for persistent devices this can cause the tun device to lose its SELinux label. We correct this problem by adding an opaque LSM security blob to the tun device struct which allows us to have the LSM security state, e.g. SELinux labeling information, persist for the lifetime of the tun device. In the process we tweak the LSM hooks to work with this new approach to TUN device/socket labeling and introduce a new LSM hook, security_tun_dev_attach_queue(), to approve requests to attach to a TUN queue via TUNSETQUEUE. The SELinux code has been adjusted to match the new LSM hooks, the other LSMs do not make use of the LSM TUN controls. This patch makes use of the recently added "tun_socket:attach_queue" permission to restrict access to the TUNSETQUEUE operation. On older SELinux policies which do not define the "tun_socket:attach_queue" permission the access control decision for TUNSETQUEUE will be handled according to the SELinux policy's unknown permission setting.

Andrew Morton pointed this out a month ago, and then I completely forgot about it. If we read a partial last page of a block device, we will zero out the end of the page, but since that page can then be mapped into user space, we should also make sure to flush the cache on architectures that have virtual caches. We have the flush_dcache_page() function for this, so use it. Now, in practice this really never matters, because nobody sane uses virtual caches to begin with, and they largely exist on old broken RISC arhitectures. And even if you did run on one of those obsolete CPU's, the whole "mmap and access the last partial page of a block device" behavior probably doesn't actually exist. The normal IO functions (read/write) will never see the zeroed-out part of the page that migth not be coherent in the cache, because they honor the size of the device. So I'm marking this for stable (3.7 only), but I'm not sure anybody will ever care.

The flags argument of the phy_{attach,connect,connect_direct} functions is then used to assign a struct phy_device dev_flags with its value. All callers but the tg3 driver pass the flag 0, which results in the underlying PHY drivers in drivers/net/phy/ not being able to actually use any of the flags they would set in dev_flags. This patch gets rid of the flags argument, and passes phydev->dev_flags to the internal PHY library call phy_attach_direct() such that drivers which actually modify a phy device dev_flags get the value preserved for use by the underlying phy driver.
