netif_tx_queue_stopped(txq) is most of the time false. Yet its cost is very expensive on SMP. static inline int netif_tx_queue_stopped(const struct netdev_queue *dev_queue) { return test_bit(__QUEUE_STATE_XOFF, &dev_queue->state); } I saw this on oprofile hunting and bnx2 driver bnx2_tx_int(). We probably should split "struct netdev_queue" in two parts, one being read mostly. __netif_tx_lock() touches _xmit_lock & xmit_lock_owner, these deserve a separate cache line.

This is V2 of the smsc911x fifo byteswap patch. The smsc911x hardware supports both big and little and endian hardware configurations, and the linux smsc911x driver currently detects word order. For correct operation on big endian platforms lacking swapped byte lanes the following patch is needed. Only fifo data is swapped, register data does not require any swapping.

The skb_gro_* code fails to handle the case where a header starts in the linear area but ends in the frags area.

When creating a certain types of VPN, NetworkManager will first attempt to find an available tun device by iterating through 'vpn%d' until it finds one that isn't already busy. Then it'll set that to be persistent and owned by the otherwise unprivileged user that the VPN dæmon itself runs as. There's a race condition here -- during the period where the vpn%d device is created and we're waiting for the VPN dæmon to actually connect and use it, if we try to create _another_ device we could end up re-using the same one -- because trying to open it again doesn't get -EBUSY as it would while it's _actually_ busy. So solve this, we add an IFF_TUN_EXCL flag which causes tun_set_iff() to fail if it would be opening an existing persistent tundevice -- so that we can make sure we're getting an entirely _new_ device.

Add support for parsing the device tree for PHY devices on an MDIO bus. Currently many of the PowerPC ethernet drivers are open coding a solution for reading data out of the device tree to find the correct PHY device.

This patch makes changes in preparation for supporting open firmware device tree descriptions of MDIO busses. Changes include: - Cleanup handling of phy_map[] entries; they are already NULLed when registering and so don't need to be re-cleared, and it is good practice to clear them out when unregistering. - Split phy_device registration out into a new function so that the OF helpers can do two stage registration (separate allocation and registration steps).

The TIM IE must not be shorter than 4 bytes, so verify that when parsing it and use the proper type. To ease that adjust struct ieee80211_tim_ie to have a virtual bitmap of size at least 1. Also check that the TIM IE is actually present before trying to parse it! Because other people may need the function, make it a static inline in ieee80211.h.

Add new nl80211 attributes that can be used with NL80211_CMD_SET_WIPHY and NL80211_CMD_GET_WIPHY to manage fragmentation/RTS threshold and retry limits. Since these values are stored in struct wiphy, remove the local copy from mac80211 where feasible (frag & rts threshold). The retry limits are currently needed in struct ieee80211_conf, but these could be eventually removed since the driver should have access to the values in struct wiphy.

This adds IBSS API along with (preliminary) wext handlers. The wext handlers can only do IBSS so you need to call them from your own wext handlers if the mode is IBSS. The nl80211 API requires * an SSID * a channel (frequency) for the case that a new IBSS has to be created It optionally supports * a flag to fix the channel * a fixed BSSID The cfg80211 code also takes care to leave the IBSS before the netdev is set down. If wireless extensions are used, it also caches values when the interface is down and instructs the driver to join when the interface is set up.

libertas: add support for Marvell SD8688 chip Use RxPD->pkt_ptr to locate eth803 header in the packet received since SD8688/v10 firmware allows a gap between RxPD and eth803 header. Set SDIO block size to 256 for CMD53. The maximum block size for SD8688 WLAN function is set to 512 in TPLFE_MAX_BLK_SIZE. But using 512 as block size results upto 2K bytes data (4 blocks) being transferred and causes buffer overflow in firmware.

Define a new nl80211 event, NL80211_CMD_MICHAEL_MIC_FAILURE, to be used to notify user space about locally detected Michael MIC failures. This matches with the MLME-MICHAELMICFAILURE.indication() primitive. Since we do not actually have TSC in the skb anymore when mac80211_ev_michael_mic_failure() is called, that function is changed to take in the TSC as an optional parameter instead of as a requirement to include the TSC after the hdr field (which we did not really follow).

As a result, attempts to use io_submit to send packets to a tun device fail with weird errors such as EINVAL.

Marvell 88E1121R Dual PHY device can be hardware-configured to use shared interrupt pin for both PHY ports. For such PHY configurations using shared PHY interrupt phy_interrupt() handler will also schedule a work for PHY port which didn't cause an interrupt. This patch adds a possibility for PHY drivers to provide did_interrupt() function which reports if the PHY (or a PHY port in a multi-PHY device) generated an interrupt. This function is called in phy_change() as phy_change() shouldn't proceed if it is invoked for a PHY which didn't cause an interrupt. So check for interrupt originator in phy_change() to allow early-out. Signed-off-by: NAnatolij Gustschin <agust@denx.de> Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

When POSIX capabilities were introduced during the 2.1 Linux cycle, the fs mask, which represents the capabilities which having fsuid==0 is supposed to grant, did not include CAP_MKNOD and CAP_LINUX_IMMUTABLE. However, before capabilities the privilege to call these did in fact depend upon fsuid==0. This patch introduces those capabilities into the fsmask, restoring the old behavior. See the thread starting at http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/3/11/157 for reference. Note that if this fix is deemed valid, then earlier kernel versions (2.4 and 2.2) ought to be fixed too.

Impact: provide useful missing info for developers Kernel taint can occur in several situations such as warnings, load of prorietary or staging modules, bad page, etc... But when such taint happens, a developer might still be working on the kernel, expecting that lockdep is still enabled. But a taint disables lockdep without ever warning about it. Such a kernel behaviour doesn't really help for kernel development. This patch adds this missing warning. Since the taint is done most of the time after the main message that explain the real source issue, it seems safe to warn about it inside add_taint() so that it appears at last, without hurting the main information. v2: Use a generic helper to disable lockdep instead of an open coded xchg().
