Private rx_csum flags are now duplicate of netdev->features & NETIF_F_RXCSUM. We remove those duplicates and now use the net_device_ops ndo_set_features. This was based on the original patch submitted by Michal Miroslaw <mirq-linux@rere.qmqm.pl>. I also removed the special case not requiring a reset for X540 hardware. It is needed just as it is in 82599 hardware.

Martin Wilck <martin.wilck@ts.fujitsu.com> reported that systems using the ixgbe-driver that were capable of WoL were rebooting almost as soon as they were shut down. This is because the default WoL settings enabled magic packet, broadcast, unicast, and multicast. Other Intel devices seem to use the stored eeprom value for initial WoL capabilities. The 82578DM (e1000e) and 82576 (igb) the devices I looked at had only the magic packet enabled in the eeprom, so that seems appropriate on ixgbe-based devices as well. I set the WoL options on my 82578DM to be the same default as the ixgbe devices (umbg) and saw the same as Martin -- almost as soon as my box shutdown, it booted again. This patch changes the default to only be the magic packet. This is the same as the default for most Intel and non-Intel hardware currently upstream.

This change is meant to address possible race conditions from the status and error bits on the RX descriptors being re-read by multiple functions in the RX cleanup path. To resolve this I have added code that will pass the staterr value to those functions.

This change moves work_limit, total_packets, and total_bytes into the ring container struct of the q_vector. The advantage of this is that it should reduce the size of memory used in the event of multiple rings being assigned to a single q_vector. In addition it should help to reduce the total workload for calculating itr since now total_packets and total_bytes will be the total work done of the interrupt instead of for the ring.

This patch adds support for a ring container structure to be used within the q_vector. The basic idea is to provide a means of separating the RX and TX rings while maintaining a common structure for their containment. The advantage to this is that later we should be able to pass this structure to the update_itr functions without needing to pass individual rings.

Because the ip fragment offset field counts 8-byte chunks, ip fragments other than the last must contain a multiple of 8 bytes of payload. ip_ufo_append_data wasn't respecting this constraint and, depending on the MTU and ip option sizes, could create malformed non-final fragments.

Fix a panic in virtnet_remove. unregister_netdev has already freed up the netdev (and virtnet_info) due to dev->destructor being set, while virtnet_info is still required. Remove virtnet_free altogether, and move the freeing of the per-cpu statistics from virtnet_free to virtnet_remove. Tested patch below.

IPv6 fragment identification generation is way beyond what we use for IPv4 : It uses a single generator. Its not scalable and allows DOS attacks. Now inetpeer is IPv6 aware, we can use it to provide a more secure and scalable frag ident generator (per destination, instead of system wide) This patch : 1) defines a new secure_ipv6_id() helper 2) extends inet_getid() to provide 32bit results 3) extends ipv6_select_ident() with a new dest parameter Reported-by: Fernando Gont <fernando@gont.com.ar> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

We currently cow metrics a bit too soon in IPv6 case : All routes are tied to a single inetpeer entry. Change ip6_rt_copy() to get destination address as second argument, so that we fill rt6i_dst before the dst_copy_metrics() call. icmp6_dst_alloc() must set rt6i_dst before calling dst_metric_set(), or else the cow is done while rt6i_dst is still NULL. If orig route points to readonly metrics, we can share the pointer instead of performing the memory allocation and copy. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Prior to this change, most PHY configuration parameters were passed into the STMMAC device as a separate PHY device. As well as being unusual, this made it difficult to make changes to the MAC/PHY relationship. This patch moves all the PHY parameters into the MAC configuration structure, mainly as a separate structure. This allows us to completely ignore the MDIO bus attached to a stmmac if desired, and not create the PHY bus. It also allows the stmmac driver to use a different PHY from the one it is connected to, for example a fixed PHY or bit banging PHY. Also derive the stmmac/PHY connection type (MII/RMII etc) from the mode can be passed into <platf>_configure_ethernet. STLinux kernel at git://git.stlinux.com/stm/linux-sh4-2.6.32.y.git provides several examples how to use this new infrastructure (that actually is easier to maintain and clearer).

Some drivers (ab)use the ethtool_ops::get_regs operation to expose only a hardware revision ID. Commit a77f5db3 ('ethtool: Allocate register dump buffer with vmalloc()') had the side-effect of breaking these, as vmalloc() returns a null pointer for size=0 whereas kmalloc() did not. For backward-compatibility, allow zero-length dumps again.

This patch add the missing dma_unmap(). Which solved the critical issue of system freeze on heavy load. Michal Miroslaw's rejected patch: [PATCH v2 10/46] net: jme: convert to generic DMA API Pointed out the issue also, thank you Michal. But the fix was incorrect. It would unmap needed address when low memory. Got lots of feedback from End user and Gentoo Bugzilla. https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=373109 Thank you all. :) Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Guo-Fu Tseng <cooldavid@cooldavid.org> Acked-by: Chris Wright <chrisw@sous-sol.org> Signed-off-by: David S.
