For various purposes including a wireless extensions bugfix, we need to hook into the netdev creation before before netdev_register_kobject(). This will also ease doing the dev type assignment that Marcel was working on for cfg80211 drivers w/o touching them all.

After last pktgen changes, delay handling is wrong. pktgen actually sends packets at full line speed. Fix is to update pkt_dev->next_tx even if spin() returns early, so that next spin() calls have a chance to see a positive delay.

Since commit 9b22ea56 ( net: fix packet socket delivery in rx irq handler ) We lost rx timestamping of packets received on accelerated vlans. Effect is that tcpdump on real dev can show strange timings, since it gets rx timestamps too late (ie at skb dequeueing time, not at skb queueing time) 14:47:26.986871 IP 192.168.20.110 > 192.168.20.141: icmp 64: echo request seq 1 14:47:26.986786 IP 192.168.20.141 > 192.168.20.110: icmp 64: echo reply seq 1 14:47:27.986888 IP 192.168.20.110 > 192.168.20.141: icmp 64: echo request seq 2 14:47:27.986781 IP 192.168.20.141 > 192.168.20.110: icmp 64: echo reply seq 2 14:47:28.986896 IP 192.168.20.110 > 192.168.20.141: icmp 64: echo request seq 3 14:47:28.986780 IP 192.168.20.141 > 192.168.20.110: icmp 64: echo reply seq 3 Signed-off-by: NEric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

Commit 2b85a34e (net: No more expensive sock_hold()/sock_put() on each tx) opens a window in sock_wfree() where another cpu might free the socket we are working on.

The move away from having drivers assign wireless handlers, in favour of making cfg80211 assign them, broke the sysfs registration (the wireless/ dir went missing) because the handlers are now assigned only after registration, which is too late. Fix this by special-casing cfg80211-based devices, all of which are required to have an ieee80211_ptr, in the sysfs code, and also using get_wireless_stats() to have the same values reported as in procfs.

Previous update did not resched in inner loop causing watchdogs. Rewrite inner loop to: * account for delays better with less clock calls * more accurate timing of delay: - only delay if packet was successfully sent - if delay is 100ns and it takes 10ns to build packet then account for that * use wait_event_interruptible_timeout rather than open coding it.

Sizing of memory allocations shouldn't depend on the number of physical pages found in a system, as that generally includes (perhaps a huge amount of) non-RAM pages. The amount of what actually is usable as storage should instead be used as a basis here. Some of the calculations (i.e. those not intending to use high memory) should likely even use (totalram_pages - totalhigh_pages).

This patch fixes commit e36b9d16. The approach there is to call dev_close()/dev_open() whenever the device type is changed in order to remap the device IP multicast addresses to HW multicast addresses. This approach suffers from 2 drawbacks: *. It assumes tha the device is UP when calling dev_close(), or otherwise dev_close() has no affect. It is worth to mention that initscripts (Redhat) and sysconfig (Suse) doesn't act the same in this matter. *. dev_close() has other side affects, like deleting entries from the routing table, which might be unnecessary. The fix here is to directly remap the IP multicast addresses to HW multicast addresses for a bonding device that changes its type, and nothing else.

Currently the multiqueue integration with the qdisc API suffers from a few problems: - with multiple queues, all root qdiscs use the same handle. This means they can't be exposed to userspace in a backwards compatible fashion. - all API operations always refer to queue number 0. Newly created qdiscs are automatically shared between all queues, its not possible to address individual queues or restore multiqueue behaviour once a shared qdisc has been attached. - Dumps only contain the root qdisc of queue 0, in case of non-shared qdiscs this means the statistics are incomplete. This patch reintroduces dev->qdisc, which points to the (single) root qdisc from userspace's point of view. Currently it either points to the first (non-shared) default qdisc, or a qdisc shared between all queues. The following patches will introduce a classful dummy qdisc, which will be used as root qdisc and contain the per-queue qdiscs as children.

This patch adds support to flash a firmware image to a device using ethtool. The driver gets the filename of the firmware image and flashes the image using the request firmware path. The region "on the chip" to be flashed can be specified by an option. It is upto the device driver to enumerate the region number passed by ethtool, to the region to be flashed. The default behavior is to flash all the regions on the chip. Signed-off-by: NAjit Khaparde <ajitk@serverengines.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

It was recently pointed out to me that the last_rx field of the net_device structure wasn't updated regularly. In fact only the bonding driver really uses it currently. Since the drop_monitor code relies on the last_rx field to detect drops on recevie in hardware, We need to find a more reliable way to rate limit our drop checks (so that we don't check for drops on every frame recevied, which would be inefficient. This patch makes a last_rx timestamp that is private to the drop monitor code and is updated for every device that we track.

After commit 2b85a34e (net: No more expensive sock_hold()/sock_put() on each tx) sk_free() frees socks conditionally and depends on sk_wmem_alloc being set e.g. in sock_init_data(). But in some cases sk_free() is called earlier, usually after other alloc errors. Fix is to move sk_wmem_alloc initialization from sock_init_data() to sk_alloc() itself.
