This reverts commit fc8c7dc1. As indicated by Jiri Klimes, this won't work. These numbers are not only used the size validation, they are also used to locate attributes sitting after the message. Signed-off-by:

Roel Kluin reported a bug in two error paths where skbs were wrongly being freed using kfree(). He provided a fix where it was replaced to kfree_skb(), as it should be. However, in i2400mu_rx(), the error path was missing returning an indication of the failure. Changed to reset rx_skb to NULL and return it to the caller, i2400mu_rxd(). It will be treated as a transient error and just ignore the packet. Depending on the buffering conditions inside the device, the data packet might be dropped or the device will signal the host again for data-ready-to-read and the host will retry. Signed-off-by:

Contrary to what the docs say, the 'extended interrupt cause' bit in the interrupt cause register (bit 1) appears to not be maskable on at least some of the mv643xx_eth platforms, making writing zeroes to the interrupt mask register but not the extended interrupt mask register insufficient to stop interrupts from occuring. Therefore, also write zeroes to the extended interrupt mask register when shutting down the port. This fixes the interrupt storm seen on the Pegasos board when shutting down the interface.

Commit 66e63ffb ("mv643xx_eth: implement ->set_rx_mode()") cleaned up mv643xx_eth's multicast filter programming, but broke it as well. The non-special multicast filter table (for multicast addresses that are not of the form 01:00:5e:00:00:xx) consists of 256 hash table buckets organised as 64 32-bit words, where the 'accept' bits are in the LSB of each byte, so in bits 24 16 8 0 of each 32-bit word. The old code got this right, but the referenced commit broke this by using bits 3 2 1 0 instead. This commit fixes this up. Signed-off-by:

This reverts commit cd4ccf76. On the Pegasos board, we can't do DMA burst that are longer than one cache line. For now, go back to using 32 byte DMA bursts for all mv643xx_eth platforms -- we can switch the ARM-based platforms back to doing long 128 byte bursts in the next development cycle. Signed-off-by:

The trick in socket splicing where we try to convert the skb->data into a page based reference using virt_to_page() does not work so well. The idea is to pass the virt_to_page() reference via the pipe buffer, and refcount the buffer using a SKB reference. But if we are splicing from a socket to a socket (via sendpage) this doesn't work. The from side processing will grab the page (and SKB) references. The sendpage() calls will grab page references only, return, and then the from side processing completes and drops the SKB ref. The page based reference to skb->data is not enough to keep the kmalloc() buffer backing it from being reused. Yet, that is all that the socket send side has at this point. This leads to data corruption if the skb->data buffer is reused by SLAB before the send side socket actually gets the TX packet out to the device. The fix employed here is to simply allocate a page and copy the skb->data bytes into that page. This will hurt performance, but there is no clear way to fix this properly without a copy at the present time, and it is important to get rid of the data corruption. With fixes from Herbert Xu.

This patch modifies how the tg3 driver handles device firmware. The patch starts by consolidating David Woodhouse's earlier patch under the same name. Specifically, the patch moves the request_firmware call into a separate tg3_request_firmware() function and calls that function from tg3_open() rather than tg3_init_one(). The patch then goes on to limit the number of devices that will make request_firmware calls. The original firmware patch unnecessarily requested TSO firmware for devices that did not need it. This patch reduces the set of devices making TSO firmware patches to approximately the following device set : 5703, 5704, and 5705. Finally, the patch reduces the effects of a request_firmware() failure. For those devices that are requesting TSO firmware, the driver will turn off the TSO capability. If TSO firmware becomes available at a later time, the device can be closed and then opened again to reacquire the TSO capability. Signed-off-by:

netif_carrier_off() is sufficient to stop Tx into the driver. Stopping the Tx queues is redundant and unnecessary. By the same token, netif_carrier_on() will be sufficient to re-enable Tx, so waking the queues is unnecessary. Signed-off-by:

Register VLAN ID 0 so that frames with VLAN ID 0 are received and get their tag stripped when ixgbe is not in DCB mode. VLAN ID 0 means that the frame is 'priority tagged' only - it is not a VLAN, but the priority value is the tag in valid. The functions ixgbe_vlan_rx_register() and ixgbe_vlan_rx_kill_vid() were moved up a couple functions to correct compiling issues with this change. Signed-off-by:

The is an issue where setting Relaxed Ordering (RO) bit (in a PCI-E write transaction) on 82598 causing the chipset to drop DCA hints. This patch forces RO not to be set for descriptors as well as payload. This will only be in effect while DCA is enabled and no performance difference was noticed in testing. Signed-off-by:

I'm trying to track down why people're hitting the checksum warning in skb_gso_segment. As the problem seems to be hitting lots of people and I can't reproduce it or locate the bug, here is a patch to print out more details which hopefully should help us to track this down. Signed-off-by:

This is copy and paste from the original driver. As skb_reserve() is also called within korina_alloc_ring() when initially allocating the receive descriptors, the same should be done when allocating new space after passing an skb to upper layers. Signed-off-by:

After the last loop iteration, i has the value RC32434_NUM_RDS and therefore leads to an index overflow when used afterwards to address the last element. This is yet another another bug introduced when rewriting parts of the driver for upstream preparation, as the original driver used 'RC32434_NUM_RDS - 1' instead. Signed-off-by:

In rare cases when an underrun occur, all macb buffers where consumed and the netif_queue was stopped infinitely. This happens then the TGO (transfer ongoing) bit in the TSR is set (and UND). It seems like clening up after the underrun makes the driver and the macb hardware end up in an inconsistent state. The result of this is that in the following calls to macb_tx no TX buffers are released -> the netif_queue was stopped, and never woken up again. The solution is to disable the transmitter, if TGO is set, before clening up after the underrun, and re-enable the transmitter when the cleaning up is done. Signed-off-by:

A pointer to wm8400_regulator_probe is passed to the core via platform_driver_register and so the function must not disappear when the .init sections are discarded. Otherwise (if also having HOTPLUG=y) unbinding and binding a device to the driver via sysfs will result in an oops as does a device being registered late. An alternative to this patch is using platform_driver_probe instead of platform_driver_register plus removing the pointer to the probe function from the struct platform_driver. Signed-off-by:
