      igb: fix i350 SR-IOV failture · 665c8c8e
      Williams, Mitch A authored
      When SR-IOV is enabled, i350 devices fail to pass traffic. This is due to
      the driver attempting to enable RSS on the PF device, which is not
      supported by the i350.
      
      When max_vfs is specified on an i350 adapter, set the number of RSS queues
      to 1.
      
      This issue affects 2.6.39 as well.

      net: cpu offline cause napi stall · 264524d5
      Heiko Carstens authored
      Frank Blaschka reported :
      <quote>
        During heavy network load we turn off/on cpus.
        Sometimes this causes a stall on the network device.
        Digging into the dump I found out following:
      
        napi is scheduled but does not run. From the I/O buffers
        and the napi state I see napi/rx_softirq processing has stopped
        because the budget was reached. napi stays in the
        softnet_data poll_list and the rx_softirq was raised again.
      
        I assume at this time the cpu offline comes in,
        the rx softirq is raised/moved to another cpu but napi stays in the
        poll_list of the softnet_data of the now offline cpu.
      
        Reviewing dev_cpu_callback (net/core/dev.c) I did not find the
        poll_list is transfered to the new cpu.
      </quote>
      
      This patch is a straightforward implementation of Frank suggestion :
      
      Transfert poll_list and trigger NET_RX_SOFTIRQ on new cpu.

      bridge: provide a cow_metrics method for fake_ops · 6407d74c
      Alexander Holler authored
      Like in commit 0972ddb2 (provide cow_metrics() methods to blackhole
      dst_ops), we must provide a cow_metrics for bridges fake_dst_ops as
      well.
      
      This fixes a regression coming from commits 62fa8a84 (net: Implement
      read-only protection and COW'ing of metrics.) and 33eb9873 (bridge:
      initialize fake_rtable metrics)

      irda: iriap: Use seperate lockdep class for irias_objects->hb_spinlock · 79b38915
      David S. Miller authored
      The SEQ output functions grab the obj->attrib->hb_spinlock lock of
      sub-objects found in the hash traversal.  These locks are in a different
      realm than the one used for the irias_objects hash table itself.
      
      So put the latter into it's own lockdep class.
