      netlink: rename ssk to sk in struct netlink_skb_params · e32123e5
      Patrick McHardy authored
      Memory mapped netlink needs to store the receiving userspace socket
      when sending from the kernel to userspace. Rename 'ssk' to 'sk' to
      avoid confusion.

      ====================
      The following patches add support for 802.1ad (provider tagging) to the
      VLAN driver. The patchset consists of the following parts:
      
      - renaming of the NET_F_HW_VLAN feature flags to indicate that they only
        operate on CTAGs
      
      - preparation for 802.1ad VLAN filtering offload by adding a proto argument
        to the rx_{add,kill}_vid net_device_ops callbacks
      
      - preparation of the VLAN code to support multiple protocols by making the
        protocol used for tagging a property of the VLAN device and converting
        the device lookup functions accordingly
      
      - second step of preparation of the VLAN code by making the packet tagging
        functions take a protocol argument
      
      - introducation of 802.1ad support in the VLAN code, consisting mainly of
        checking for ETH_P_8021AD in a couple of places and testing the netdevice
        offload feature checks to take the protocol into account
      
      - announcement of STAG offloading capabilities in a couple of drivers for
        virtual network devices
      
      The patchset is based on net-next.git and has been tested with single and
      double tagging with and without HW acceleration (for CTAGs).

      net: vlan: add 802.1ad support · 8ad227ff
      Patrick McHardy authored
      Add support for 802.1ad VLAN devices. This mainly consists of checking for
      ETH_P_8021AD in addition to ETH_P_8021Q in a couple of places and check
      offloading capabilities based on the used protocol.
      
      Configuration is done using "ip link":
      
      # ip link add link eth0 eth0.1000 \
      	type vlan proto 802.1ad id 1000
      # ip link add link eth0.1000 eth0.1000.1000 \

      net: vlan: add protocol argument to packet tagging functions · 86a9bad3
      Patrick McHardy authored
      Add a protocol argument to the VLAN packet tagging functions. In case of HW
      tagging, we need that protocol available in the ndo_start_xmit functions,
      so it is stored in a new field in the skb. The new field fits into a hole
      (on 64 bit) and doesn't increase the sks's size.

      ====================
      This series contains updates to ixgbe and igb.
      
      The ixgbe changes contains 2 patches from the community, one which is a
      fix from akepner to fix a issue where netif_running() in shutdown was
      not done under rtnl_lock.  The other community fix from Joe Perches
      cleans up #ifdef CONFIG_DEBUG_FS which is no longer necessary.  The
      last ixgbe patch, from Jacob Keller, adds support for WoL on 82559
      SFP+ LOM.
      
      The remaining patches are against igb, 10 of which were previously
      submitted in a pull request where changes were requested.
      
      The following igb patches:
       igb: Support for 100base-fx SFP
       igb: Support to read and export SFF-8472/8079 data
      are v2 based on feedback from Dan Carpenter and Ben Hutchings in
      the previous pull request.
      
      The largest set of changes are in my patch to cleanup code comments
      and whitespace to align the igb driver with the networking style of
      code comments.  While cleaning up the code comments, fixed several
      other whitespace/checkpatch.pl code formatting issues.
      
      Other notable igb patches are EEE capable devices query the PHY to
      determine what the link partner is advertising, added support for
      i354 devices and added support for spoofchk config.

      Patrick McHardy says:
      
      ====================
      The following patchset adds support for running TIPC over InfiniBand.
      The patchset consists of three parts (+ a minor fix for the ethernet media
      type):
      
      - Preparation: removal of an the unused str2addr callback and move of the
        bcast_addr from struct tipc_media to struct tipc_bearer. This is necessary
        because InfiniBand doesn't have a fixed broadcast address like ethernet,
        so it needs to be initialized with the device's broadcast address when
        the bearer is enabled
      
      - Introduction of a TIPC InfiniBand media type. A new media type is needed
        to deal with the different address sizes
      
      - Support for ETH_P_TIPC in IPoIB
      
      Since the last posting I've addressed all feedback I received and rebased
      to the current net-next tree.
      
      I consider these patches ready for merging. Since they mainly affect TIPC
      code, I'd propose to have them either go through the TIPC tree or through
      Dave directly (not sure how TIPC patches are managed).

      IPoIB: add support for TIPC protocol · dc850b0e
      Patrick McHardy authored
      Support TIPC in the IPoIB driver. Since IPoIB now keeps track of its own
      neighbour entries and doesn't require the packet to have a dst_entry
      anymore, the only necessary changes are to:
      
      - not drop multicast TIPC packets because of the unknown ethernet type
      - handle unicast TIPC packets similar to IPv4/IPv6 unicast packets
      
      in ipoib_start_xmit().
      
      An alternative would be to remove all ethertype limitations since they're
      not necessary anymore, all TIPC needs to know about is ARP and RARP since
      it wants to always perform "path find", even if a path is already known.

      tipc: add InfiniBand media type · a29a194a
      Patrick McHardy authored
      Add InfiniBand media type based on the ethernet media type.
      
      The only real difference is that in case of InfiniBand, we need the entire
      20 bytes of space reserved for media addresses, so the TIPC media type ID is
      not explicitly stored in the packet payload.
