Previously the driver tweaked txqueuelen to avoid false Tx hang reports seen at half duplex. This had the effect of overriding user set values on link change/reset. Testing shows that adjusting only the timeout factor is sufficient to prevent Tx hang reports at half duplex.

Don't aggregate rx_no_buffer_count into rx_fifo_errors. RNBC counts packets that get queued temporarily in the adapter's FIFO. These packets are not dropped and are not errors.

The bnx2 driver calls netif_napi_add() for all the NAPI structs during ->probe() time but not all of them will be used if we're not in MSI-X mode. This creates a problem for netpoll since it will poll all the NAPI structs in the dev_list whether or not they are scheduled, resulting in a crash when we access structure fields not initialized for that vector. We fix it by moving the netif_napi_add() call to ->open() after the number of IRQ vectors has been determined.

Allows the net_cls cgroup subsystem to be compiled as a module This patch modifies net/sched/cls_cgroup.c to allow the net_cls subsystem to be optionally compiled as a module instead of builtin. The cgroup_subsys struct is moved around a bit to allow the subsys_id to be either declared as a compile-time constant by the cgroup_subsys.h include in cgroup.h, or, if it's a module, initialized within the struct by cgroup_load_subsys.

I haven't been able to get link up on a NX_P3_B1 since 2.6.31. The driver complains about a firmware hang instead. When I asked I was told rev 0x41 was a preproduction rev.

I chased down a fail on ppc64 on 2.6.34-rc2 where an application that uses shared memory was getting a SEGV. Commit baed7fc9 ("Add generic sys_ipc wrapper") changed the second argument from an unsigned long to an int. When we call shmget the system call wrappers for sys_ipc will sign extend second (ie the size) which truncates it. It took a while to track down because the call succeeds and strace shows the untruncated size :) The patch below changes second from an int to an unsigned long which fixes shmget on ppc64 (and I assume s390, sparc64 and mips64). Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> -- I assume the function prototypes for the other IPC methods would cause us to sign or zero extend second where appropriate (avoiding any security issues). Come to think of it, the syscall wrappers for each method should do that for us as well. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Commit 3f6da390 (perf: Rework and fix the arch CPU-hotplug hooks) broke suspend to RAM on my HP nx6325 (and most likely on other AMD-based boxes too) by allowing amd_pmu_cpu_offline() to be executed for CPUs that are going offline as part of the suspend process. The problem is that cpuhw->amd_nb may be NULL already, so the function should make sure it's not NULL before accessing the object pointed to by it. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

When the host lets us know what 'name' a port is assigned, we create the sysfs 'name' attribute. Generate a 'change' event after this so that udev wakes up and acts on the rules for virtio-ports (currently there's only one rule that creates a symlink from the 'name' to the actual char device).

TCP sessions over IPv4 can get stuck if routers between endpoints do not fragment packets but implement PMTU instead, and we are using those routers because of an ICMP redirect. Setup is as follows MTU1 MTU2 MTU1 A--------B------C------D with MTU1 > MTU2. A and D are endpoints, B and C are routers. B and C implement PMTU and drop packets larger than MTU2 (for example because DF is set on all packets). TCP sessions are initiated between A and D. There is packet loss between A and D, causing frequent TCP retransmits. After the number of retransmits on a TCP session reaches tcp_retries1, tcp calls dst_negative_advice() prior to each retransmit. This results in route cache entries for the peer to be deleted in ipv4_negative_advice() if the Path MTU is set. If the outstanding data on an affected TCP session is larger than MTU2, packets sent from the endpoints will be dropped by B or C, and ICMP NEEDFRAG will be returned. A and D receive NEEDFRAG messages and update PMTU. Before the next retransmit, tcp will again call dst_negative_advice(), causing the route cache entry (with correct PMTU) to be deleted. The retransmitted packet will be larger than MTU2, causing it to be dropped again. This sequence repeats until the TCP session aborts or is terminated. Problem is fixed by removing redirected route cache entries in ipv4_negative_advice() only if the PMTU is expired. Signed-off-by: Guenter Roeck <guenter.roeck@ericsson.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Some of the debug files ended up wrongly in sysfs, because at that point of time, debugfs didn't exist. Convert these files to use debugfs and also seq_file.

When creating a high number of Bluetooth sockets (L2CAP, SCO and RFCOMM) it is possible to scribble repeatedly on arbitrary pages of memory. Ensure that the content of these sysfs files is always less than one page. Even if this means truncating. The files in question are scheduled to be moved over to debugfs in the future anyway.

Currently, ENOBUFS errors are reported to the socket via netlink_set_err() even if NETLINK_RECV_NO_ENOBUFS is set. However, that should not happen. This fixes this problem and it changes the prototype of netlink_set_err() to return the number of sockets that have set the NETLINK_RECV_NO_ENOBUFS socket option. This return value is used in the next patch in these bugfix series. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Under NET_DMA, data transfer can grind to a halt when userland issues a large read on a socket with a high RCVLOWAT (i.e., 512 KB for both). This appears to be because the NET_DMA design queues up lots of memcpy operations, but doesn't issue or wait for them (and thus free the associated skbs) until it is time for tcp_recvmesg() to return. The socket hangs when its TCP window goes to zero before enough data is available to satisfy the read. Periodically issue asynchronous memcpy operations, and free skbs for ones that have completed, to prevent sockets from going into zero-window mode. Signed-off-by: Steven J.

mfc_parent of cache entries is used to index into the vif_table and is initialised from mfcctl->mfcc_parent. This can take values of to 2^16-1, while the vif_table has only MAXVIFS (32) entries. The same problem affects ip6mr. Refuse invalid values to fix a potential out-of-bounds access. Unlike the other validity checks, this is checked in ipmr_mfc_add() instead of the setsockopt handler since its unused in the delete path and might be uninitialized.
