For HiperSocket devices receive-path checksumming is not required. Thus NO_CHECKSUMMING is used as default for HiperSocket interfaces. For layer3 devices configured with NO_CHECKSUMMING received skbs should have set their ip_summed field to CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY.

z/VM Virtual Switch Port Isolation allows guests on a VLAN UNAWARE virtual switch to be isolated from other guests on the VSWITCH. (See z/VM Apars VM64281 and VM64463). The Linux qeth driver is affected, because it has to handle new error codes introduced with the z/VM VSWITCH Port Isolation support.

If a qeth device is plugged off, setting the device online stops in state HARDSETUP and a failure is reported to the base cio-layer causing halt/clear to be invoked. Replugging the device again triggers a qeth recovery without notification of the cio-layer. If a device is ungrouped in this state, the qeth set_offline function is not invoked, because the corresponding ccwgroup device is not in state ONLINE. Then incoming traffic is still handled by the qdio layer resulting in a crash in qeth_l<x>_qdio_input_handler, because (part of) the qeth data structures for this device are already removed. Solution: After replugging the device qeth recovery should lead to a working net device. Thus a "LAN offline" result when setting a qeth device online must not report a failure to the base cio-layer.

The DHCP spec allows the server to specify the MTU. This can be useful for netbooting with UDP-based NFS-root on a network using jumbo frames. This patch allows the kernel IP autoconfiguration to handle this option correctly. It would be possible to use initramfs and add a script to set the MTU, but that seems like a complicated solution if no initramfs is otherwise necessary, and would bloat the kernel image more than this code would.

nlmsg_new() adds the size of the netlink header to the value that has been passed as parameter. If NLMSG_GOODSIZE is selected, we request an allocation of one memory page plus the size of the header. Instead, NLMSG_DEFAULT_SIZE should be used since it already substracts the size of the Netlink header. I have the impression that the similar naming in both constant is error prone when using it with nlmsg_new().

Due to mostly historic reasons, including a lack of reliability of the link handling (especially with the older 8169), the current r8169 driver emulates forced mode setting by limiting the advertised modes. With this change the driver allows real 10/100 forced mode settings on the 8169 and 8101/8102. Original idea by Vincent Steenhoute. The RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_03 tweak was extracted from Realtek's r8169 v6.010.00 driver.

One point of contention in high network loads is the dst_release() performed when a transmited skb is freed. This is because NIC tx completion calls dev_kree_skb() long after original call to dev_queue_xmit(skb). CPU cache is cold and the atomic op in dst_release() stalls. On SMP, this is quite visible if one CPU is 100% handling softirqs for a network device, since dst_clone() is done by other cpus, involving cache line ping pongs. It seems right place to release dst is in dev_hard_start_xmit(), for most devices but ones that are virtual, and some exceptions. David Miller suggested to define a new device flag, set in alloc_netdev_mq() (so that most devices set it at init time), and carefuly unset in devices which dont want a NULL skb->dst in their ndo_start_xmit(). List of devices that must clear this flag is : - loopback device, because it calls netif_rx() and quoting Patrick : "ip_route_input() doesn't accept loopback addresses, so loopback packets already need to have a dst_entry attached." - appletalk/ipddp.c : needs skb->dst in its xmit function - And all devices that call again dev_queue_xmit() from their xmit function (as some classifiers need skb->dst) : bonding, vlan, macvlan, eql, ifb, hdlc_fr Signed-off-by: NEric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

Just returning -ERESTARTSYS without a signal pending is not good that will just leak it to userspace. We need return -ERESTARTNOINTR so we always restart and set signal pending so that we fall of the fast path of syscall return and setup the system call restart.

The earlier patch to fix the deadlock between a network device going away and writing to sysfs attributes was incomplete. - It did not set signal_pending so we would leak ERSTARTSYS to user space. - It used ERESTARTSYS which only restarts if sigaction configures it to. - It did not cover store and show for ifalias.
