In commit 1c5cae81 (net: call dev_alloc_name from register_netdevice), a bug of bonding was involved, see example 1 and 2. In register_netdevice(), the name of net_device is not valid until dev_get_valid_name() is called. But dev->netdev_ops->ndo_init(that is bond_init) is called before dev_get_valid_name(), and it uses the invalid name of net_device. I think register_netdevice() should make sure that the name of net_device is valid before calling ndo_init(). example 1: modprobe bonding ls /proc/net/bonding/bond%d ps -eLf root 3398 2 3398 0 1 21:34 ? 00:00:00 [bond%d] example 2: modprobe bonding max_bonds=3 [ 170.100292] bonding: Ethernet Channel Bonding Driver: v3.7.1 (April 27, 2011) [ 170.101090] bonding: Warning: either miimon or arp_interval and arp_ip_target module parameters must be specified, otherwise bonding will not detect link failures! see bonding.txt for details.

The file st5481_init.c locally defines and initializes the adapter_list variable, but does not use it for anything. Removing the list makes it possible to remove the list field from the st5481_adapter data structure. In the function probe_st5481, it also makes it possible to free the locally allocated adapter value on an error exit. Signed-off-by:

This patch adds IPPROTO_ICMP socket kind. It makes it possible to send ICMP_ECHO messages and receive the corresponding ICMP_ECHOREPLY messages without any special privileges. In other words, the patch makes it possible to implement setuid-less and CAP_NET_RAW-less /bin/ping. In order not to increase the kernel's attack surface, the new functionality is disabled by default, but is enabled at bootup by supporting Linux distributions, optionally with restriction to a group or a group range (see below). Similar functionality is implemented in Mac OS X: http://www.manpagez.com/man/4/icmp/ A new ping socket is created with socket(PF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, PROT_ICMP) Message identifiers (octets 4-5 of ICMP header) are interpreted as local ports. Addresses are stored in struct sockaddr_in. No port numbers are reserved for privileged processes, port 0 is reserved for API ("let the kernel pick a free number"). There is no notion of remote ports, remote port numbers provided by the user (e.g. in connect()) are ignored. Data sent and received include ICMP headers. This is deliberate to: 1) Avoid the need to transport headers values like sequence numbers by other means. 2) Make it easier to port existing programs using raw sockets. ICMP headers given to send() are checked and sanitized. The type must be ICMP_ECHO and the code must be zero (future extensions might relax this, see below). The id is set to the number (local port) of the socket, the checksum is always recomputed. ICMP reply packets received from the network are demultiplexed according to their id's, and are returned by recv() without any modifications. IP header information and ICMP errors of those packets may be obtained via ancillary data (IP_RECVTTL, IP_RETOPTS, and IP_RECVERR). ICMP source quenches and redirects are reported as fake errors via the error queue (IP_RECVERR); the next hop address for redirects is saved to ee_info (in network order). socket(2) is restricted to the group range specified in "/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ping_group_range". It is "1 0" by default, meaning that nobody (not even root) may create ping sockets. Setting it to "100 100" would grant permissions to the single group (to either make /sbin/ping g+s and owned by this group or to grant permissions to the "netadmins" group), "0 4294967295" would enable it for the world, "100 4294967295" would enable it for the users, but not daemons. The existing code might be (in the unlikely case anyone needs it) extended rather easily to handle other similar pairs of ICMP messages (Timestamp/Reply, Information Request/Reply, Address Mask Request/Reply etc.). Userspace ping util & patch for it: http://openwall.info/wiki/people/segoon/ping For Openwall GNU/*/Linux it was the last step on the road to the setuid-less distro. A revision of this patch (for RHEL5/OpenVZ kernels) is in use in Owl-current, such as in the 2011/03/12 LiveCD ISOs: http://mirrors.kernel.org/openwall/Owl/current/iso/ Initially this functionality was written by Pavel Kankovsky for Linux 2.4.32, but unfortunately it was never made public. All ping options (-b, -p, -Q, -R, -s, -t, -T, -M, -I), are tested with the patch. PATCH v3: - switched to flowi4. - minor changes to be consistent with raw sockets code. PATCH v2: - changed ping_debug() to pr_debug(). - removed CONFIG_IP_PING. - removed ping_seq_fops.owner field (unused for procfs). - switched to proc_net_fops_create(). - switched to %pK in seq_printf(). PATCH v1: - fixed checksumming bug. - CAP_NET_RAW may not create icmp sockets anymore. RFC v2: - minor cleanups. - introduced sysctl'able group range to restrict socket(2). Signed-off-by:

Added code to take FW dump via ethtool. Dump level can be controlled via setting the dump flag. A get function is provided to query the current setting of the dump flag. Dump data is obtained from the driver via a separate get function. Changes from v3: Fixed buffer length issue in ethtool_get_dump_data function. Updated kernel doc for ethtool_dump struct and get_dump_flag function. Changes from v2: Provided separate commands for get flag and data. Check for minimum of the two buffer length obtained via ethtool and driver and use that for dump buffer Pass up the driver return error codes up to the caller. Added kernel doc comments.

Remove all remaining references to rt->rt_{src,dst} by using dest->dst_saddr to cache saddr (used for TUN mode). For ICMP in FORWARD hook just restrict the rt_mode for NAT to disable LOCALNODE. All other modes do not allow IP_VS_RT_MODE_RDR, so we should be safe with the ICMP forwarding. Using cp->daddr as replacement for rt_dst is safe for all modes except BYPASS, even when cp->dest is NULL because it is cp->daddr that is used to assign cp->dest for sync-ed connections.

Michał Mirosław's patch (http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/94421/) fixes the issue (http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/94188/) about not populating FCoE related flags correctly on vlan devices. However, only NETIF_F_FCOE_CRC is part of the NETIF_F_ALL_TX_OFFLOADS right now, where weed NETIF_F_FCOE_MTU and NETIF_F_FSO as well. Therefore, add NETIF_F_ALL_FCOE to indicate feature flags used by FCoE TX offloads. These include NETIF_F_FCOE_CRC, NETIF_F_FCOE_MTU, and NETIF_F_FSO and add them to be part of NETIF_F_ALL_TX_OFFLOADS. This would eventually make sure all FCoE needed flags are populated properly to vlan devices. Signed-off-by:

Fix VLAN features propagation for devices which change vlan_features. For this to work, driver needs to make sure netdev_features_changed() gets called after the change (it is e.g. after ndo_set_features()).

Resending this patch with few changes. Avoid multiple queues when MSI or MSI-X not available Limit number of Tx queues to 1 if MSI/MSI-X support is not configured in the kernel. This will make number of tx and rx queues equal when MSI/X is not configured thus providing better performance. Signed-off-by:
