mac_pton() parses MAC address in form XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX and only in that form.

mac_pton() doesn't dirty result until it's sure string representation is valid.

mac_pton() doesn't care about characters _after_ last octet,
it's up to caller to deal with it.

mac_pton() diverges from 0/-E return value convention.
Target usage:

	if (!mac_pton(str, whatever->mac))
		return -EINVAL;
	/* ->mac being u8 [ETH_ALEN] is filled at this point. */
	/* optionally check str[3 * ETH_ALEN - 1] for termination */

Use mac_pton() in pktgen and netconsole for start.

Pktgen doesn't generate number of frags requested.
Divide packet size by number of frags and fill that in every frags.

Example:
With packet size 1470, it generate only 11 frags. Initial frags
get lenght 706, 353, 177....so on. Last frag get divided by 2.

Now with this fix, each frags will get 78 bytes.

(bug introduced by commit 26ad7879
(pktgen: speedup fragmented skbs)

The headers of pktgen were incorrectly added in a pktgen packet
without frags (frags=0). There was an offset in the pktgen headers.

The cause was in reusing the pgh variable as a return variable in skb_put
when adding the payload to the skb.

We know for sure pktgen is going to write skb->data right after
*_alloc_skb, causing unnecessary cache misses.

Idea is to add a prefetchw() call to prefetch the first cache line
indicated by skb->data. On systems with Adjacent Cache Line Prefetch,
it's probably two cache lines are prefetched.

With this patch, pktgen on Intel SR1625 server with two E5530

A program that accidentally writes too much data to the pktgen file can overflow
the kernel stack and oops the machine. This is only triggerable by root, so
there's no security issue, but it's still an unfortunate bug.

printk() won't print more than 1024 bytes in a single call, anyways, so let's
just never copy more than that much data. We're on a fairly shallow stack, so
that should be safe even with CONFIG_4KSTACKS.

The temporary variable "i" is needlessly initialized to zero
in two distinct cases in this file:

1) where it is set to zero and then used as an argument in an addition
before being assigned a non-zero value.

2) where it is only used in a standard/typical loop counter

For (1), simply delete assignment to zero and usages while still
zero; for (2) simply make the loop start at zero as per standard
practice as seen everywhere else in the same file.

Commit e6fce5b9 (pktgen: multiqueue etc.) tried to relax
the pktgen restriction of one device per kernel thread, adding a '@'
tag to device names.

Problem is we dont perform check on full pktgen device name.
This allows adding many time same 'device' to pktgen thread

 pgset "add_device eth0@0"

one session later :

 pgset "add_device eth0@0"

(This doesnt find previous device)

This consumes ~1.5 MBytes of vmalloc memory per round and also triggers

It is not currently possible to instruct pktgen to use one selected tx queue.

When Robert added multiqueue support in commit 45b270f8, he added
an interval (queue_map_min, queue_map_max), and his code doesnt take
into account the case of min = max, to select one tx queue exactly.

I suspect a high performance setup on a eight txqueue device wants
to use exactly eight cpus, and assign one tx queue to each sender.

This patchs makes pktgen select the right tx queue, not the first one.

Previous update did not resched in inner loop causing watchdogs.
Rewrite inner loop to:
  * account for delays better with less clock calls
  * more accurate timing of delay:
    - only delay if packet was successfully sent
    - if delay is 100ns and it takes 10ns to build packet then
      account for that
  * use wait_event_interruptible_timeout rather than open coding it.
