Gagan Arneja <gaagaan@gmail.com> pointed out that tg3_reset_task() could potentially race with another thread calling tg3_full_lock() such as the ethtool_set_xxx() functions. This may trigger the BUG_ON() in tg3_irq_quiesce() or cause the irq_sync flag to be out- of-sync. I think the easiest way to fix this is to get the tp->lock first before setting the irq_sync flag. This is safe to do because the tp->lock is never grabbed by the irq handler. This change will guarantee that the irq_sync flag updates will be serialized. We also have to change one spot to call tg3_netif_start() (which clears the irq_sync flag) before releasing the tp->lock. Signed-off-by: NMichael Chan <mchan@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

All drivers need to unregister their devices in the module unload function. While doing so they must hold the rtnl and atomically unregister the rtnl_link ops as well. This makes the rtnl_link_unregister function that takes the rtnl itself completely useless. Provide default newlink/dellink functions, make __rtnl_link_unregister and rtnl_link_unregister unregister all devices with matching rtnl_link_ops and change the existing users to take advantage of that.

In addition to the periodic heartbeat, we're adding a heartbeat request interrupt when the heartbeat is late. This is needed during netpoll where the timer is not available. -rt kernels will also benefit since the timer is not as accurate. [ We discussed this patch last time and we decided that the -rt kernel problem alone did not justify this patch. I think the netpoll problem makes this patch necessary. ] Signed-off-by: NMichael Chan <mchan@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Spurious interrupts are often encountered especially on systems using the 8259 PIC mode. This is because the I/O write to deassert the interrupt is posted and won't get to the chip immediately. As a result, the IRQ may remain asserted after the IRQ handler exits, causing spurious interrupts. Add read back to flush the I/O write to deassert the IRQ immediately. We also store the last_status_idx immediately in the IRQ handler to help detect whether the interrupt is ours or not when the IRQ is entered again before ->poll gets called.

Modify the driver's ethtool_ops->get_settings and set_settings functions to support remote PHY. Users control the remote copper PHY settings by specifying link settings for the tp (twisted pair) port. The nway_reset function is also modified to support remote PHY. mii-tool operations are not supported on remote PHY and we will return -EOPNOTSUPP.

In blade servers, the Serdes PHY in 5708S can control the remote copper PHY through autonegotiation on the backplane. This patch adds the logic to interface with the firmware to control the remote PHY autonegotiation and to handle remote PHY link events. When remote PHY is present, the 5708S Serdes device practically becomes a copper device with full control over the 1000Base-T link settings.

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. Signed-off-by: NJames Chapman <jchapman@katalix.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

The existing model for checksum offload does not correctly handle devices that can offload IPV4 and IPV6 only. The NETIF_F_HW_CSUM flag implies device can do any arbitrary protocol. This patch: * adds NETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM for those devices * fixes bnx2 and tg3 devices that need it * add NETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM to ipv6 output (incl GSO) * fixes assumptions about NETIF_F_ALL_CSUM in nat * adjusts bridge union of checksumming computation Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

At present, when a device is enslaved to bonding, if ipv6 is active then addrconf will be initated on the slave (because it is closed then opened during the enslavement processing). This causes DAD and RS packets to be sent from the slave. These packets in turn can confuse switches that perform ipv6 snooping, causing them to incorrectly update their forwarding tables (if, e.g., the slave being added is an inactve backup that won't be used right away) and direct traffic away from the active slave to a backup slave (where the incoming packets will be dropped). This patch alters the behavior so that addrconf will only run on the master device itself. I believe this is logically correct, as it prevents slaves from having an IPv6 identity independent from the master. This is consistent with the IPv4 behavior for bonding. This is accomplished by (a) having bonding set IFF_SLAVE sooner in the enslavement processing than currently occurs (before open, not after), and (b) having ipv6 addrconf ignore UP and CHANGE events on slave devices. The eql driver also uses the IFF_SLAVE flag. I inspected eql, and I believe this change is reasonable for its usage of IFF_SLAVE, but I did not test it.
