Updates of the RBRDU have two different meanings depending on their context: 1. the receiving process has not started - the value which is written into the RBRDU register is supposed to be the free rx descriptors count (rounded to a multiple of 4) 2. the receiving process is running - the value increments the count above (sic) The update is currently issued deep inside the rx replenish chain (see velocity_give_many_rx_descs). Let's propagate enough information to the caller so that the rx replenish functions do not depend on hardware any more. It is needed to perform the Rx/Tx buffers housekeeping when MTU changes.

Executive summary: the bounce buffers are in my way - they use something like a 64 * 1500 bytes area of PCI consistent area - they are not resized when the MTU changes - they are used - to hand-pad undersized packets. skb_pad anyone ? - to linearize fragmented skbs whose fragment count goes beyond the 7 fragments hardware limit in order to claim scatter-gather support Actually the SG code is commented out and I wonder if it could not be implemented (ab-)using the large send feature of the chipset since the latter should support some multi-descriptor packet transmitting.

Only plain netif_schedule() remains taking a net_device, mostly as a compatability item while we transition the rest of these interfaces. Everything else calls netif_schedule_queue() or __netif_schedule(), both of which take a netdev_queue pointer. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

First, we add a qdisc_tx_changing() helper which returns true if the qdisc attachment is in transition. Second, we remove an assertion warning which is of limited value and is hard to express precisely in a multiqueue environment. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Every qdisc is assosciated with a queue, and in the case of ingress qdiscs that will now be netdev->rx_queue so using that queue's lock is the thing to do. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The lock is now an attribute of the device queue. One thing to notice is that "suspicious" places emerge which will need specific training about multiple queue handling. They are so marked with explicit "netdev->rx_queue" and "netdev->tx_queue" references. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

It can be obtained via the netdev_queue. So create a helper routine, qdisc_dev(), to make the transformations nicer looking. Now, qdisc_alloc() now no longer needs a net_device pointer argument. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

A netdev_queue is an entity managed by a qdisc. Currently there is one RX and one TX queue, and a netdev_queue merely contains a backpointer to the net_device. The Qdisc struct is augmented with a netdev_queue pointer as well. Eventually the 'dev' Qdisc member will go away and we will have the resulting hierarchy: net_device --> netdev_queue --> Qdisc Also, qdisc_alloc() and qdisc_create_dflt() now take a netdev_queue pointer argument.

- vlan_dev_reorder_header() is only called on the receive path after calling skb_share_check(). This means we can use skb_cow() since all we need is a writable header. - vlan_dev_hard_header() includes a work-around for some apparently broken out of tree MPLS code. The hard_header functions can expect to always have a headroom of at least there own hard_header_len available, so the reallocation check is unnecessary. - __vlan_put_tag() can use skb_cow_head() to avoid the skb_unshare() copy when the header is writable.

Consider the following scenario: ipv6_del_addr(ifp) ipv6_ifa_notify(RTM_DELADDR, ifp) ip6_del_rt(ifp->rt) after returning from the ipv6_ifa_notify and enabling BH-s back, but *before* calling the addrconf_del_timer the ifp->timer fires and: addrconf_dad_timer(ifp) addrconf_dad_completed(ifp) ipv6_ifa_notify(RTM_NEWADDR, ifp) ip6_ins_rt(ifp->rt) then return back to the ipv6_del_addr and: in6_ifa_put(ifp) inet6_ifa_finish_destroy(ifp) dst_release(&ifp->rt->u.dst) After this we have an ifp->rt inserted into fib6 lists, but queued for gc, which in turn can result in oopses in the fib6_run_gc. Maybe some other nasty things, but we caught only the oops in gc so far. The solution is to disarm the ifp->timer before flushing the rt from it.

Although I only tested similar code (I don't use any of this wireless code), the state maintainance between Netlink dump callback invocations seems wrong here and should lead to an endless loop. There are also other examples in the same file which might have the same problem. Perhaps someone can actually test this (or refute my logic). Take the simple example with only one element in the list (which should fit into the message): 1. invocation: Start: idx = 0, start = 0 Loop: condition (++idx < start) => (1 < 0) => false => no continue, fill one entry, exit loop, return skb->len > 0 2. invocation: Start: idx = 0, start = 1 Loop: condition (++idx < start) => (1 < 1) => false => no continue, fill the same entry again, exit loop, return skb->len > 0 3. invocation: Same as 2. invocation, endless invocation of callback. Also, iterations where the filling of an element fails should not be counted as completed, so idx should not be incremented in this case.

Some early versions of RTL8187B devices have a USB ID of 0x8187 rather than the 0x8189 of later models. In addition, it appears that these early units also must be programmed with lower power. Previous patches used the Product ID string to detect this situation, but did not address the low power question. This patch uses the hardware version and sets the power accordingly.

The gcc 3.4 fork used to compile the MN10300 port emits unwanted __ucmpdi2() calls for switch statements that use a 64bit value.
