commit 97f8aefb "net: fix ethtool coding style errors and warnings" changed the indentation of several macro definitions in ethtool.h. These definitions line up in the diff where there is an extra character at the start of each line, but not in the resulting file.

This patch added to 2.6.34: commit f8d1dcaf Author: Jesse Brandeburg <jesse.brandeburg@intel.com> Date: Tue Apr 27 01:37:20 2010 +0000 ixgbe: enable extremely low latency introduced a feature where LRO (called RSC on the hardware) was disabled automatically when setting rx-usecs to 0 via ethtool. Some might not like the fact that LRO was disabled automatically, but I'm fine with that. What I don't like is that LRO/RSC is automatically enabled when rx-usecs is set >0 via ethtool. This would certainly be a problem if the device was used for forwarding and it was determined that the low latency wasn't needed after the device was already forwarding. I played around with saving the state of LRO in the driver, but it just didn't seem worthwhile and would require a small change to dev_disable_lro() that I did not like. This patch simply leaves LRO disabled when setting rx-usecs >0 and requires that the user enable it again. An extra informational message will also now appear in the log so users can understand why LRO isn't being enabled as they expect. Inconsistency of LRO setting first noticed by Stanislaw Gruszka.

commit 675ad473 removed the capability to use ethtool.set_msglevel to control the types of messages emitted by the driver. That commit should probably be reverted. If not, then this patch fixes a message logging defect introduced by converting a printk without KERN_<level> to e_info. This also reduces text by about 200 bytes.

There is a small window where the watchdog could be running as the interface is brought down on a NIC with two ports wired back to back. If ixgbe_update_status is then called can lead to a panic. This patch allows the update to bail if we are in that condition. This issue was orignally reported and fix proposed by Akihiko Saitou.

Use struct rtnl_link_stats64 as the statistics structure. On 32-bit architectures, insert 32 bits of padding after/before each field of struct net_device_stats to make its layout compatible with struct rtnl_link_stats64. Add an anonymous union in net_device; move stats into the union and add struct rtnl_link_stats64 stats64. Add net_device_ops::ndo_get_stats64, implementations of which will return a pointer to struct rtnl_link_stats64. Drivers that implement this operation must not update the structure asynchronously. Change dev_get_stats() to call ndo_get_stats64 if available, and to return a pointer to struct rtnl_link_stats64. Change callers of dev_get_stats() accordingly.

This patch increases the granularity of the rate generated by pktgen. The previous version of pktgen uses micro seconds (udelay) resolution when it was delayed causing gaps in the rates. It is changed to nanosecond (ndelay). Now any rate is possible. Also it allows to set, the desired rate in Mb/s or packets per second. The documentation has been updated.

econet lacks proper locking. It holds econet_lock only when inserting or deleting an entry in econet_sklist, not during lookups. - convert econet_lock from rwlock to spinlock - use econet_lock in ec_listening_socket() lookup - use appropriate sock_hold() / sock_put() to avoid corruptions.

gen_kill_estimator() API is incomplete or not well documented, since caller should make sure an RCU grace period is respected before freeing stats_lock. This was partially addressed in commit 5d944c64 (gen_estimator: deadlock fix), but same problem exist for all gen_kill_estimator() users, if lock they use is not already RCU protected. A code review shows xt_RATEEST.c, act_api.c, act_police.c have this problem. Other are ok because they use qdisc lock, already RCU protected.

If oui were a null variable then vic_provinfo_alloc() would leak memory. But this function is only called from one place and oui is not null so I removed the check.

The point of using the devres resource management routines is that they simplify the driver by taking care of releasing resources on failure and release. A recent commit added a bunch of error handling that is unnecessary in this context. This patch removes this redundant error handling, as well as using dmam_alloc_coherent in place of dma_alloc_coherent in order to use this framework consistenly throughout the driver.

commit 66018506 (ip: Router Alert RCU conversion) introduced RCU lookups to ip_call_ra_chain(). It missed proper deinit phase : When ip_ra_control() deletes an ip_ra_chain, it should make sure ip_call_ra_chain() users can not start to use socket during the rcu grace period. It should also delay the sock_put() after the grace period, or we risk a premature socket freeing and corruptions, as raw sockets are not rcu protected yet. This delay avoids using expensive atomic_inc_not_zero() in ip_call_ra_chain(). Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Currently, the accelerated receive path for VLAN's will drop packets if the real device is an inactive slave and is not one of the special pkts tested for in skb_bond_should_drop(). This behavior is different then the non-accelerated path and for pkts over a bonded vlan. For example, vlanx -> bond0 -> ethx will be dropped in the vlan path and not delivered to any packet handlers at all. However, bond0 -> vlanx -> ethx and bond0 -> ethx will be delivered to handlers that match the exact dev, because the VLAN path checks the real_dev which is not a slave and netif_recv_skb() doesn't drop frames but only delivers them to exact matches. This patch adds a sk_buff flag which is used for tagging skbs that would previously been dropped and allows the skb to continue to skb_netif_recv(). Here we add logic to check for the deliver_no_wcard flag and if it is set only deliver to handlers that match exactly. This makes both paths above consistent and gives pkt handlers a way to identify skbs that come from inactive slaves. Without this patch in some configurations skbs will be delivered to handlers with exact matches and in others be dropped out right in the vlan path. I have tested the following 4 configurations in failover modes and load balancing modes. # bond0 -> ethx # vlanx -> bond0 -> ethx # bond0 -> vlanx -> ethx # bond0 -> ethx | vlanx -> -- Signed-off-by: John Fastabend <john.r.fastabend@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
