Veth stands for Virtual ETHernet. It is a simple tunnel driver
that works at the link layer and looks like a pair of ethernet
devices interconnected with each other.

Mainly it allows to communicate between network namespaces but
it can be used as is as well.

The newlink callback is organized that way to make it easy to
create the peer device in the separate namespace when we have
them in kernel.

This implementation uses another interface - the RTM_NRELINK
message introduced by Patric.

This driver handles only L2TP data frames; control frames are handled
by a userspace application. It implements L2TP using the PPPoX socket
family. There is a PPPoX socket for each L2TP session in an L2TP
tunnel.  PPP data within each session is passed through the kernel's
PPP subsystem via this driver. Kernel parameters of each socket can be
read or modified using ioctl() or [gs]etsockopt() calls.

Hi,

This is the third submission of the network driver for PS3.
The differences from the previous one are:

  - renamed source file names so that their prefix can match
    with the module name
  - added cbe-oss-dev@ozlabs.org line for MAINTAINER file
  - changed some in copyright comments

If there are no more comments, please apply for 2.6.23.

Thank you

This patch creates platform_device entries for the Marvell mv64x60
ethernet controller ports, based on information contained in the

This driver (like the other mv64x60 drivers) are unusual in that it
works on both the MIPS and PowerPC architectures.  Because of that,
the drivers do not support the normal PowerPC of_platform_bus_type.
They support platform_bus_type instead.

It is preferable to group drivers by usage (net, scsi, ATA, ...) than
by bus.  When reviewing drivers, the [PCI|USB|PCMCIA|...] maintainer
is probably less qualified on networking issues than a networking
maintainer.  Also, from a practical standpoint, chips often
appear on multiple buses, which is why we do not put drivers into
drivers/pci/net.

Add an InfiniBand driver for Mellanox ConnectX adapters.  Because
these adapters can also be used as ethernet NICs and Fibre Channel 
HBAs, the driver is split into two modules: 
 
  mlx4_core: Handles low-level things like device initialization and 
    processing firmware commands.  Also controls resource allocation 
    so that the InfiniBand, ethernet and FC functions can share a 
    device without stepping on each other. 
 
  mlx4_ib: Handles InfiniBand-specific things; plugs into the

Fix a race condition in the transmit code, where the dma interrupt could update
the free tx buffer count concurrently and wedge the tx queue.

Fix the misuse of the rx frame status and rx frame length registers: no more
"fifo overrun" errors caused by the OFLOW bit being tested in the frame length
register (instead of the status register), and no more missed packets due to
incorrect length taken from status register (instead of the frame length
register).

Fix a panic (skb_over_panic BUG) caused by allocating and then copying an
incoming packet while the packet length register was changing.

Cut-and-paste the reset code from the powermac mace driver (mace.c), so the NIC
functions when MacOS does not initialise it (important for anyone wanting to
use the Emile boot loader).

Cut-and-paste the error counting and timeout recovery code from mace.c.

Fix over allocation of rx buffer memory (it's page order, not page count).

Converted to driver model.

Converted to DMA API.

Since I've run out of ways to make it fail, and since it performs well now,
