      tipc: fix two bugs in secondary destination lookup · d482994f
      Jon Paul Maloy authored 
      A message sent to a node after a successful name table lookup may still
find that the destination socket has disappeared, because distribution
of name table updates is non-atomic. If so, the message will be rejected
back to the sender with error code TIPC_ERR_NO_PORT. If the source
socket of the message has disappeared in the meantime, the message
should be dropped.

However, in the currrent code, the message will instead be subject to an
unwanted tertiary lookup, because the function tipc_msg_lookup_dest()
doesn't check if there is an error code present in the message before
performing the lookup. In the worst case, the message may now find the
old destination again, and be redirected once more, instead of being
dropped directly as it should be.

A second bug in this function is that the "prev_node" field in the message
is not updated after successful lookup, something that may have
unpredictable consequences.

The problems arising from those bugs occur very infrequently.

The third change in this function; the test on msg_reroute_msg_cnt() is
purely cosmetic, reflecting that the returned value never can be negative.

This commit corrects the two bugs described above.

Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2015-03-27

This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf.

Jesse adds new device IDs to handle the new 20G speed for KR2.

Mitch provides a fix for an issue that shows up as a panic or memory
corruption when the device is brought down while under heavy stress.
This is resolved by delaying the releasing of resources until we
receive acknowledgment from the PF driver that the rings have indeed
been stopped.  Also adds firmware version information to ethtool
reporting to align with ixgbevf behavior.

Akeem increases the polling loop limiter, sine we found that in
certain circumstances the firmware can take longer to be ready after
a reset.

      Merge branch 'stacked_vlan_tso' · afb0bc97

====================
Stacked vlan TSO

On the basis of Netdev 0.1 discussion[1], I made a patch set to enable
TSO for packets with multiple vlans.

Currently, packets with multiple vlans are always segmented by software,
which is caused by that netif_skb_features() drops most feature flags
for multiple tagged packets.

To allow NICs to segment them, we need to get rid of that check from core.
Fortunately, recently introduced ndo_features_check() can be used to
move the check to each driver, and this patch set is based on the idea.

For the initial patch set, I chose 3 drivers, bonding, team, and igb, as
candidates to enable TSO. I tested them and confirmed they works fine
with this change.

Here are samples of performance test results. As I expected, %sys gets
pretty lower than before.

- vlan (.1Q) on vlan (1.Q) on igb (I350)
- vlan (.1Q) on vlan (1.Q) on team on igb (I350)
And didn't find any problem.

      igb: Enable TSO for stacked vlan · 1abbc98a
      Toshiaki Makita authored 
      As datasheets for igb (I210, I350, 82576, etc.) say, maclen can be from
14 to 127, which is enough for reasonable number of vlan tags.
My netperf test showed I350's TSO works pretty fine with multiple vlans.

As no drivers currently handle multiple tagged TSO, introduce
dflt_features_check() and call it if the driver does not have

      vlan: Add features for stacked vlan device · 8d463504
      Toshiaki Makita authored 
      Stacked vlan devices curretly have few features (GRO, HIGHDMA, LLTX).
Since we have software fallbacks in case the NIC can not handle some
features for multiple vlans, we can add the same features as the lower
vlan devices for stacked vlan devices.

This allows stacked vlan devices to create large (GSO) packets and not to
segment packets. Those packets will be segmented by software on the real
device, or even can be segmented by the NIC once TSO for multiple vlans
becomes enabled by the following patches.

The exception is those related to FCoE, which does not have a software
fallback.

      Merge branch 'dsa-hw-bridging' · 7836b16c
      David S. Miller authored 
      Guenter Roeck says:

====================
net: dsa: HW bridging, EEE support

Patch 1 to 7 of this series prepare the drivers using the mv88e6xxx code
for HW bridging support, without adding the code itself. For the most part
this factors out common port initialization code. There is no functional
change except for patch 3, which disables the message port bit for the
CPU port to prevent packet duplication if HW bridging is configured.

Patch 8 adds the infrastructure for hardware bridging support to the
mv88e6xxx code.

Patch 9 wires the MV88E6352 driver to support hardware bridging.

Patches 10 to 12 add support for ndo_fdb functions to the dsa subsystem,
and wire up the MV88E6352 driver to support those functions.

Patches 13 to 16 add EEE support and HW bridging support to the mv88e6171
driver. This set of patches is from Andrew, applied on top of the first
set of patches.

The series applies to net-next as of 3/24/2015.

Thanks a lot to Andrew Lunn for testing and valuable feedback.
