This patch eliminates an unneeded parameter when creating a low-level TIPC port object. Instead of returning both the pointer to the port structure and the port's reference ID, it now returns only the pointer since the port structure contains the reference ID as one of its fields.

Please see the following thread to get some context on this http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=121564433018903&w=2 Basically the issue is that current multi-cast filtering stuff in the TUN/TAP driver is seriously broken. Original patch went in without proper review and ACK. It was broken and confusing to start with and subsequent patches broke it completely. To give you an idea of what's broken here are some of the issues: - Very confusing comments throughout the code that imply that the character device is a network interface in its own right, and that packets are passed between the two nics. Which is completely wrong. - Wrong set of ioctls is used for setting up filters. They look like shortcuts for manipulating state of the tun/tap network interface but in reality manipulate the state of the TX filter. - ioctls that were originally used for setting address of the the TX filter got "fixed" and now set the address of the network interface itself. Which made filter totaly useless. - Filtering is done too late. Instead of filtering early on, to avoid unnecessary wakeups, filtering is done in the read() call. The list goes on and on :) So the patch cleans all that up. It introduces simple and clean interface for setting up TX filters (TUNSETTXFILTER + tun_filter spec) and does filtering before enqueuing the packets. TX filtering is useful in the scenarios where TAP is part of a bridge, in which case it gets all broadcast, multicast and potentially other packets when the bridge is learning. So for example Ethernet tunnelling app may want to setup TX filters to avoid tunnelling multicast traffic. QEMU and other hypervisors can push RX filtering that is currently done in the guest into the host context therefore saving wakeups and unnecessary data transfer.

This patch makes mac80211 assign proper sequence numbers to QoS-data frames. It also removes the old sequence number code because we noticed that only the driver or hardware can assign sequence numbers to non-QoS-data and especially management frames in a race-free manner because beacons aren't passed through mac80211's TX path. This patch also adds temporary code to the rt2x00 drivers to not break them completely, that code will have to be reworked for proper sequence numbers on beacons. It also moves sequence number assignment down in the TX path so no sequence numbers are assigned to frames that are dropped.

This patch changes mac80211's beacon configuration handling to never pass skbs to the driver directly but rather always require the driver to use ieee80211_beacon_get(). Additionally, it introduces "change flags" on the config_interface() call to enable drivers to figure out what is changing. Finally, it removes the beacon_update() driver callback in favour of having IBSS beacon delivered by ieee80211_beacon_get() as well.

Adds netif_napi_del function which is used to remove the napi struct from the netdev napi_list in cases where CONFIG_NETPOLL was enabled. The motivation for adding this is to handle the case in which the number of queues on a device changes due to a configuration change. Previously the napi structs for each queue would be left in the list until the netdev was freed.

A netdev_queue is an entity managed by a qdisc. Currently there is one RX and one TX queue, and a netdev_queue merely contains a backpointer to the net_device. The Qdisc struct is augmented with a netdev_queue pointer as well. Eventually the 'dev' Qdisc member will go away and we will have the resulting hierarchy: net_device --> netdev_queue --> Qdisc Also, qdisc_alloc() and qdisc_create_dflt() now take a netdev_queue pointer argument.

- vlan_dev_reorder_header() is only called on the receive path after calling skb_share_check(). This means we can use skb_cow() since all we need is a writable header. - vlan_dev_hard_header() includes a work-around for some apparently broken out of tree MPLS code. The hard_header functions can expect to always have a headroom of at least there own hard_header_len available, so the reallocation check is unnecessary. - __vlan_put_tag() can use skb_cow_head() to avoid the skb_unshare() copy when the header is writable.

Lennert Buytenhek points out that the VLAN code incorrectly adjusts skb->network_header to point in the middle of the VLAN header and additionally tries to adjust skb->mac_header without checking for validity.
