Make all frames sent to reserved group MAC addresses (01:80:c2:00:00:00 to 01:80:c2:00:00:0f) be forwarded if STP is disabled. This enables forwarding EAPOL frames, among other things.

Commit c477d044 added support for RGMII rx/tx delays except that it ends up clearing rx/tx delays bit for modes differents that RGMII*ID. Due to this, ethernet is not working anymore on my guruplug server +. This patch is fixing that. Signed-off-by: Arnaud Patard <arnaud.patard@rtp-net.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

The FCoE offload is enabled/disabled per adapter, but upper FCoE protocol stack could have multiple FCoE instances created on the same physical network interface, e.g., FCoE on multiple VLAN interfaces on the same physical network interface. In this case we want to turn on FCoE offload at the first request from ndo_fcoe_enable() but only turn off FCoE offload at the very last call to ndo_fcoe_disable(). This is fixed by adding a refcnt in the per adapter FCoE structure and tear down FCoE offload when refcnt decrements to zero.

Current ixgbe stats have following problems : - Not 64 bit safe (on 32bit arches) - Not safe in ixgbe_clean_rx_irq() : All cpus dirty a common location (netdev->stats.rx_bytes & netdev->stats.rx_packets) without proper synchronization. This slow down a bit multiqueue operations, and possibly miss some updates. Fixes : Implement ndo_get_stats64() method to provide accurate 64bit rx|tx bytes/packets counters, using 64bit safe infrastructure. ixgbe_get_ethtool_stats() also use this infrastructure to provide 64bit safe counters.

The smsc95xx driver currently generates a new random MAC address every time the interface is brought up. This makes it impossible to override using the standard `ifconfig hw ether` approach. Past patches tried to make the MAC address a module parameter or base it off the die ID, but it seems to me much simpler (and hopefully less controversial) to stick with the current random generation scheme, but allow the user to change the address. This patch does exactly that - it moves the random address generation from smsc95xx_reset() into smsc95xx_bind(), so that it is done once on module load, not on every ifup. The user can then override this using the standard mechanisms. Applies against 2.6.35 and linux-2.6 head. Signed-off-by: Bernard Blackham <b-omap@largestprime.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

A number of customers are reporting packet loss under certain workloads (e.g. heavy bursts of small packets) with flow control disabled. A larger rx ring helps to prevent these losses.
