Jiri Pirko says: ==================== This is a V6 of a repost of my previous patchset: "[patch net-next v2 00/15] net: introduce upper device lists and remove dev->master" from Aug 14 The discussion around "[net-next] bonding: don't allow the master to become its slave" forced me to think about upper<->lower device connections. This patchset adds a possibility to record upper device linkage. All upper<->lower devices are converted to use this mechanism right after. That leads to dev->master removal because this info becomes redundant since "master links" have the same value. After all changes, there is no longer possible to do things as: "bond->someotherdevice->samebond" Also I think that drivers like cxgb3, qlcnic, qeth would benefit by this in future by being able to get more appropriate info about l3 addresses. v5->v6: - netdev_has_upper_dev() - added statement to comment that this is looking at the immediate upper devices only. - renamed "RTNL semaphore" -> "RTNL lock" in all comments - renamed __netdev_has_upper_dev() to __netdev_search_upper_dev() to emhasize the difference to netdev_has_upper_dev() v4->v5: - fixed missed typo in drivers/infiniband/hw/nes/nes_cm.c v3->v4: - comments in __netdev_upper_dev_link() squashed into one line - kfree_rcu used instead of call_rcu in netdev_upper_dev_unlink() v2->v3: - removed recursion in __netdev_has_upper_dev() - refreshed bits to be applicable on current net-next v1->v2: - s/unique/master/ better naming + stays closer to the past - fixed vlan err goto - original patch 15 (WARN_ON change) is squashed into the first patch ==================== Signed-off-by:David S.

Also, since all users call __vlan_find_dev_deep() with rcu_read_lock, make no possibility to call this with rtnl mutex held only. Signed-off-by:

This lists are supposed to serve for storing pointers to all upper devices. Eventually it will replace dev->master pointer which is used for bonding, bridge, team but it cannot be used for vlan, macvlan where there might be multiple upper present. In case the upper link is replacement for dev->master, it is marked with "master" flag. New upper device list resolves this limitation. Also, the information stored in lists is used for preventing looping setups like "bond->somethingelse->samebond" Signed-off-by:

Previously, when invalid address was passed to ndo_set_mac_address, random mac was generated and set. Fix this by returning -EADDRNOTAVAIL in this situation. Also polish the code around a bit. Signed-off-by:

Flash template provides instructions to stop, restart and initalize the firmware. These instructions are abstracted as a series of read, write and poll operations on hardware registers. Register information and operation specifics are not exposed to the driver. Driver reads the template from flash and executes the instructions located at pre-defined offsets. Template based firmware reset recovery and initialization mechanism minimize driver changes as firmware evolves. Signed-off-by:
