It is safe to enable all fragments before enabling the first descriptor, this way all descriptors don't have to be processed twice, added extra memory barrier. Signed-off-by: Daniel Hellstrom <daniel@gaisler.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

If hardware asserted an interrupt and driver is down, then there is nothing to do so return IRQ_HANDLED instead of IRQ_NONE. Returning IRQ_NONE in above situation causes screaming IRQ on virtual machines.

The firmware agent is not available during resume. Loading the firmware during open() (see eee3a96c) is not enough. close() is run during resume through rtl8169_reset_task(), whence the mildly natural release of firmware in the driver removal method instead. It will help with http://bugs.debian.org/609538. It will not avoid the 60 seconds delay when: - there is no firmware - the driver is loaded and the device is not up before a suspend/resume Signed-off-by: Francois Romieu <romieu@fr.zoreil.com> Tested-by: Jarek Kamiński <jarek@vilo.eu.org> Cc: Hayes <hayeswang@realtek.com> Cc: Ben Hutchings <benh@debian.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

From a check for !is_multicast_ether_addr it is not always obvious that we're checking for a unicast address. So add this helper function to make those code paths easier to read.

Some ethtool operations can only be implemented for the WAN port, and not all such operations are allowed to return an error code such as -EOPNOTSUPP. Therefore, define two separate ethtool_ops structures for WAN and non-WAN ports; simplify and rename the WAN-only functions. This is completely untested as I don't have an ARM build environment.

skb_clone() dynamically allocates memory and may fail. If it does it returns NULL. This means we'll dereference a NULL pointer in drivers/net/usb/cdc_ncm.c::cdc_ncm_rx_fixup(). As far as I can tell, the proper way to deal with this is simply to goto the error label. Furthermore gcc complains that 'skb' may be used uninitialized: drivers/net/usb/cdc_ncm.c: In function ‘cdc_ncm_rx_fixup’: drivers/net/usb/cdc_ncm.c:922:18: warning: ‘skb’ may be used uninitialized in this function and I believe it is right. On the line where we pr_debug("invalid frame detected (ignored)" ... we are using the local variable 'skb' but nothing has ever been assigned to that variable yet. I believe the correct fix for that is to use 'skb_in' instead. Signed-off-by: Jesper Juhl <jj@chaosbits.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

After recent changes, (percpu stats on vlan/tunnels...), we dont need anymore per struct netdev_queue tx_bytes/tx_packets/tx_dropped counters. Only remaining users are ixgbe, sch_teql, gianfar & macvlan : 1) ixgbe can be converted to use existing tx_ring counters. 2) macvlan incremented txq->tx_dropped, it can use the dev->stats.tx_dropped counter. 3) sch_teql : almost revert ab35cd4b (Use net_device internal stats) Now we have ndo_get_stats64(), use it, even for "unsigned long" fields (No need to bring back a struct net_device_stats) 4) gianfar adds a stats structure per tx queue to hold tx_bytes/tx_packets This removes a lockdep warning (and possible lockup) in rndis gadget, calling dev_get_stats() from hard IRQ context.

This patch fixes a loop in ctnetlink_get_conntrack() that can be triggered if you use the same socket to receive events and to perform a GET operation. Under heavy load, netlink_unicast() may return -EAGAIN, this error code is reserved in nfnetlink for the module load-on-demand. Instead, we return -ENOBUFS which is the appropriate error code that has to be propagated to user-space.

Linux IPv6 forwards unicast packets, which are link layer multicasts... The hole was present since day one. I was 100% this check is there, but it is not. The problem shows itself, f.e. when Microsoft Network Load Balancer runs on a network. This software resolves IPv6 unicast addresses to multicast MAC addresses.

The IPv6 tproxy patches split IPv6 defragmentation off of conntrack, but failed to update the #ifdef stanzas guarding the defragmentation related fields and code in skbuff and conntrack related code in nf_defrag_ipv6.c. This patch adds the required #ifdefs so that IPv6 tproxy can truly be used without connection tracking.

broute table init hook sets up the "br_should_route_hook" pointer, which then gets called from br_input. commit a386f990 (bridge: add proper RCU annotation to should_route_hook) introduced a typedef, and then changed this to: br_should_route_hook_t *rhook; [..] rhook = rcu_dereference(br_should_route_hook); if (*rhook(skb)) problem is that "br_should_route_hook" contains the address of the function, so calling *rhook() results in kernel panic.

The netlink interface to dump the connection tracking table has a race when entries are deleted at the same time. A customer reported a crash and the backtrace showed thatctnetlink_dump_table was running while a conntrack entry was being destroyed. (see https://bugzilla.vyatta.com/show_bug.cgi?id=6402). According to RCU documentation, when using hlist_nulls the reader must handle the case of seeing a deleted entry and not proceed further down the linked list. The old code would continue which caused the scan to walk into the free list. This patch uses locking (rather than RCU) for this operation which is guaranteed safe, and no longer requires getting reference while doing dump operation.
