      macb: Add support of the netpoll API · 6e8cf5c0
      Thomas Petazzoni authored
      With this patch in place, I'm successfully able to use the netconsole
      mechanism with the Calao USB-A9263 board, which uses the AT91SAM9263
      CPU, which in terms of Ethernet controller is supported by the macb
      driver.

      tcp: extend ECN sysctl to allow server-side only ECN · 255cac91
      Ilpo Järvinen authored
      This should be very safe compared with full enabled, so I see
      no reason why it shouldn't be done right away. As ECN can only
      be negotiated if the SYN sending party is also supporting it,
      somebody in the loop probably knows what he/she is doing. If
      SYN does not ask for ECN, the server side SYN-ACK is identical
      to what it is without ECN. Thus it's quite safe.
      
      The chosen value is safe w.r.t to existing configs which
      choose to currently set manually either 0 or 1 but
      silently upgrades those who have not explicitly requested
      ECN off.
      
      Whether to just enable both sides comes up time to time but
      unless that gets done now we can at least make the servers
      aware of ECN already. As there are some known problems to occur
      if ECN is enabled, it's currently questionable whether there's
      any real gain from enabling clients as servers mostly won't
      support it anyway (so we'd hit just the negative sides). After
      enabling the servers and getting that deployed, the client end
      enable really has some potential gain too.
