There are more memory leaks in the !PPC_CPM_NEW_BINDING case, but that code will disappear soon along with arch/ppc.

Taken from http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10577 I was unable to access a computer containing an Intel EtherExpress 16 network card using IPv6. I traced this to failure of neighbour discovery. When I used an "ip -6 neigh add" command, on the computer attempting access, to insert a binding between the IPv6 address of the computer with the Intel EtherExpress 16 network card and the card's ethernet address, I was able to access that computer using IPv6. Neighbour discovery requires working multicast. The driver sources file eexpress.c contains an approximately 30 line function eexp_setup_filter used when loading multicast addresses. I found 3 problems in this function 1) It wrote the number of multicast addresses to the card instead of the number of bytes in the multicast addresses. 2) When loading multiple multicast addresses it loaded the first one provided multiple times instead of loading each one once. 3) The setting of pointer 'data' from 'dmi->dmi_addr' occured before the test for the error situation of 'dmi' being NULL. Correcting these problems allows the computer with the Intel EtherExpress 16 network card to found by IPv6 neighbour discovery. p.s. There is some information on the Intel EtherExpress 16 at http://www.intel.com/support/etherexpress/vintage/sb/cs-013500.htm Datasheet for the Intel 82586 ethernet controller used by the card http://www.datasheetcatalog.com/datasheets_pdf/8/2/5/8/82586.shtmlSigned-off-by: Bruce Robson <bns_robson@hotmail.com> Cc: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>

The ethernet card 3c980-TX needs a mdio_sync() to initialize the ethernet properly. This is forced by adding an EXTRA_PREAMBLE to its drv_flags.

This patch adds support for the BM PHY, a new PHY model being used on ICH9-based implementations. This new PHY exposes issues in the ICH9 silicon when receiving jumbo frames large enough to use more than a certain part of the Rx FIFO, and this unfortunately breaks packet split jumbo receives. For this reason we re-introduce (for affected adapters only) the jumbo single-skb receive routine back so that people who do wish to use jumbo frames on these ich9 platforms can do so. Part of this problem has to do with CPU sleep states and to make sure that all the wake up timings are correctly we force them with the recently merged pm_qos infrastructure written by Mark Gross. (See http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/10/4/400). To make code read a bit easier we introduce a _IS_ICH flag so that we don't need to do mac type checks over the code.

This patch fixes uli526x driver's issues on a PowerPC boards: uli chip is unable to receive the packets. It appears that send_frame_filter prepares the setup frame in the endianness unsafe manner. On a big endian machines we should shift the address nibble by two bytes. Signed-off-by: Anton Vorontsov <avorontsov@ru.mvista.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>

The firmware on MPC8610HPCD boards enables ULI ethernet and leaves it in some funky state before booting Linux. For drivers, it's always good idea to (re)initialize the hardware prior to requesting interrupts.

As part of: commit c2edacf8 Author: Jay Vosburgh <fubar@us.ibm.com> Date: Mon Jul 9 10:42:47 2007 -0700 bonding / ipv6: no addrconf for slaves separately from master two steps were rearranged in the enslavement process: netdev_set_master is now before the call to dev_open to open the slave. This patch updates the error cases and unwind process at the end of bond_enslave to match the new order. Without this patch, it is possible for the enslavement to fail, but leave the slave with IFF_SLAVE set in its flags.

The sysfs layer has an internal protection, that ensures, that all the process sitting inside ->sore/->show callback exits before the appropriate entry is unregistered (the calltraces are rather big, but I can provide them if required). On the other hand, bonding takes rtnl_lock in a) the bonding_store_bonds, i.e. in ->store callback, b) module exit before calling the sysfs unregister routines. Thus, the classical AB-BA deadlock may occur. To reproduce run # while :; do modprobe bonding; rmmod bonding; done and # while :; do echo '+bond%d' > /sys/class/net/bonding_masters ; done in parallel. The fix is to move the bond_destroy_sysfs out of the rtnl_lock, but _before_ bond_free_all to make sure no bonding devices exist after module unload.

Instead of restricting the driver to PNP-only in the Kconfig space, add the (trivial) dummy struct pnp_driver - this is that other drivers use in the !PNP case too.

That is typically done by providing a dummy pnp_driver structure that will not probe anything. The fallback routines in the driver will handle this dumber mode of operation too. This patch implements that. I have not tested whether this actually works on real hardware so take care. It does resolve the build bug. [ Another solution that is used by a few drivers is to exclude the driver in the Kconfig if PNP is disabled, via "depends on PNP", but this would limit the availability of the driver needlessly. ] Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: David S.

The error path in ieee80211_register_hw() may call the unregister_netdev() and right after it - the free_netdev(), which is wrong, since the unregister releases the device itself. So the proposed fix is to NULL the local->mdev after unregister is done and check this before calling free_netdev(). I checked - no code uses the local->mdev after unregister in this error path (but even if some did this would be a BUG). Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

Changeset 7f7c4072 ("niu: Determine the # of ports from the card's VPD data") caused maramba on-board NIU ports to stop probing properly. The old code had a fallback that would use a num_ports value of 4 if all the probing methods failed, but that was removed. This restores the fallback of 4 ports, to get things working again.

Daniel Lezcano authored
When a netdev is moved across namespaces with the 'dev_change_net_namespace' function, the 'device_rename' function is used to fixup kobject and refresh the sysfs tree. The device_rename function will call kobject_rename and this one will check if there is an object with the same name and this is the case because we are renaming the object with the same name. The use of 'device_rename' seems for me wrong because we usually don't rename it but just move it across namespaces. As we just want to do a mini "netdev_[un]register", IMO the functions 'netdev_[un]register_kobject' should be used instead, like an usual network device [un]registering. This patch replace device_rename by netdev_unregister_kobject, followed by netdev_register_kobject. The netdev_register_kobject will call device_initialize and will raise a warning indicating the device was already initialized. In order to fix that, I split the device initialization into a separate function and use it together with 'netdev_register_kobject' into register_netdevice. So we can safely call 'netdev_register_kobject' in 'dev_change_net_namespace'. This fix will allow to properly use the sysfs per namespace which is coming from -mm tree.
