Tx queues were stopped before bp->state was changed to a value different from BNX2X_STATE_OPEN, which allowed the bnx2x_tx_int() called from the NAPI context to re-enable it. This then allowed the netdev->ndo_start_xmit() to be called in the middle of the function reset and rings freeing. This patch changes bp->state to a value different from BNX2X_STATE_OPEN BEFORE disabling the Tx queues in order to restore the broken protection against the above race in the bnx2x_tx_int().

The D-Link DGE-530T rev C1 is a re-badged Realtek 8169 named DLG10028C, unlike the previous revisions which were skge based. It is probably the same as the discontinued DGE-528T (0x4300) other than the PCI ID. The PCI ID is 0x1186:0x4302. Adding it to r8169.c where 0x1186:0x4300 is already found makes the card be detected and work. This fixes https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38862Signed-off-by:

A small modification was necessary since in the machine description for 'n2cp' and 'ncp' nodes, there no longer is an 'intr' property. That's OK because this property was always nothing more than an array of integers '1' ... 'nr_inos + 1' so we can just compute it in-place. Signed-off-by:

The following patches are going to break skb fragments into smaller sizes. This patch attempts to make the change easier to digest by only addressing the skb teardown portion. The patch modifies the driver to skip over any BDs that have a flag set that indicates the BD isn't the beginning of an skb fragment. Such BDs were a result of segmentation and do not need a pci_unmap_page() call. Signed-off-by:

In the following patches, the process the driver will use to assign skb fragments to transmit BDs will get more complicated. To prepare for that new code, this patch seeks to simplify how transmit BDs are populated. It does this by separating the code that assigns the BD members from the logic that controls how the fields are set. Signed-off-by:

The AX88772B uses only 11 bits of the header for the actual size. The other bits are used for something else.

Subject: [PATCH net-next-2.6 v2] bonding: reduce noise during init Many are using sysfs to configure bonding rather than module options, so there is no need for bonding to throw this warning in normal cases.

When a bond contains a device where one name is the subset of another (eth1 and eth10, for example), one cannot properly set the primary device or the currently active device. This was reported and based on work by Takuma Umeya. I also verified the problem and tested that this fix resolves it. V2: A few did not like the the current code or my changes, so I refactored bonding_store_primary and bonding_store_active_slave to be a bit cleaner, dropped the use of strnicmp since we did not really need the comparison to be case insensitive, and formatted the input string from sysfs so a comparison to IFNAMSIZ could be used. I also discovered an error in bonding_store_active_slave that would modify bond->primary_slave rather than bond->curr_active_slave before forcing the bonding driver to choose a new active slave. V3: Actually sending the proper patch.... Signed-off-by:

After the last patch, We are left in a state in which only drivers calling ether_setup have IFF_TX_SKB_SHARING set (we assume that drivers touching real hardware call ether_setup for their net_devices and don't hold any state in their skbs. There are a handful of drivers that violate this assumption of course, and need to be fixed up. This patch identifies those drivers, and marks them as not being able to support the safe transmission of skbs by clearning the IFF_TX_SKB_SHARING flag in priv_flags Signed-off-by:

Pktgen attempts to transmit shared skbs to net devices, which can't be used by some drivers as they keep state information in skbs. This patch adds a flag marking drivers as being able to handle shared skbs in their tx path. Drivers are defaulted to being unable to do so, but calling ether_setup enables this flag, as 90% of the drivers calling ether_setup touch real hardware and can handle shared skbs. A subsequent patch will audit drivers to ensure that the flag is set properly Signed-off-by:
