While doing multiple captures, I found af_packet was dirtying cache line containing its prot_hook. This slow down machines where several cpus are necessary to handle capture traffic, as each prot_hook is traversed for each packet coming in or out the host. This patches moves "struct packet_type prot_hook" to the end of packet_sock, and uses a ____cacheline_aligned_in_smp to make sure this remains shared by all cpus. Signed-off-by:

This patch makes the private functions alloc_can_skb() and alloc_can_err_skb() of the at91_can driver public and adapts all drivers to use these. While making the patch I realized, that the skb's are *not* setup consistently. It's now done as shown below: skb->protocol = htons(ETH_P_CAN); skb->pkt_type = PACKET_BROADCAST; skb->ip_summed = CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY; *cf = (struct can_frame *)skb_put(skb, sizeof(struct can_frame)); memset(*cf, 0, sizeof(struct can_frame)); The frame is zeroed out to avoid uninitialized data to be passed to user space. Some drivers or library code did not set "pkt_type" or "ip_summed". Also, "__constant_htons()" should not be used for runtime invocations, as pointed out by David Miller. Signed-off-by:

This patch adds Intel Wireless MultiCom 3200 top driver. IWMC3200 is 4Wireless Com CHIP (GPS/BT/WiFi/WiMAX). Top driver is responsible for device initialization and firmware download. Firmware handled by top is responsible for top itself and as well as bluetooth and GPS coms. (Wifi and WiMax provide their own firmware) In addition top driver is used to retrieve firmware logs and supports other debugging features Signed-off-by:

In order to have better cache layouts of struct sock (separate zones for rx/tx paths), we need this preliminary patch. Goal is to transfert fields used at lookup time in the first read-mostly cache line (inside struct sock_common) and move sk_refcnt to a separate cache line (only written by rx path) This patch adds inet_ prefix to daddr, rcv_saddr, dport, num, saddr, sport and id fields. This allows a future patch to define these fields as macros, like sk_refcnt, without name clashes. Signed-off-by:

1. GENL_MIN_ID is a valid id -> no need to start at GENL_MIN_ID + 1. 2. Avoid going through the ids two times: If we start at GENL_MIN_ID+1 (*or bigger*) and all ids are over!, the code iterates through the list twice (*or lesser*). 3. Simplify code - no need to start at idx=0 which gets reset to GENL_MIN_ID. Patch on net-next-2.6. Reboot test shows that first id passed to genl_register_family was 16, next two were GENL_ID_GENERATE and genl_generate_id returned 17 & 18 (user level testing of same code shows expected values across entire range of MIN/MAX).

Value of zero was used to disable the fairness mechanism. Though the code (driver and FW) allowed changing the value at run time, it did not allow to do that if the mechanism was disabled to begin with. Fixed the FW to allow turning on and off the mechanism at run time. Fixed the code to read the value from the chip at the right sequence. Without this fix, if the initial value was set to zero, traffic could not run on the interface. Signed-off-by:
