This patch delegates the work of creating the sysfs groups to the netdev layer and ultimately to the device layer. This closes races between uevents. Signed-off-by:

This isn't beautifully abstracted, but it is simple, simplifies uses and so far is only needed for the bonding driver. Signed-off-by:

In commit 23289a37 (net: add a list_head parameter to dellink() method), I forgot to actually use this parameter in veth_dellink. I remember feeling a bit uncomfortable about veth_close(), because it does : netif_carrier_off(dev); netif_carrier_off(priv->peer); Signed-off-by:

The temporary copy of the VLAN group is not neccessary since the lower device is already in the process of being unregistered, if it was neccessary the memset of the global group would introduce a race condition. With this removed, the changes to the original code are only a few lines, so remove the new function and move the code back into vlan_device_event(). Signed-off-by:

For USB 3.0 it is necessary that all drivers use the standard API to reset a configuration. This removes a home-grown implementation. Signed-off-by:

Tentative support for newer Marvell hardware including the Yukon-2 Optima chip. Do not have hatdware to test this yet, code is based on vendor driver. Signed-off-by:

Changes related to support of Yukon supreme chip. Don't have this chip version to test on, these are reverse engineered from the vendor (GPL) driver. Signed-off-by:

Program the receive pause thresholds differently depending on chip version. This cloned from from the vendor (GPL) driver. Signed-off-by:

Now that we can tell whether GRO is being applied, this heuristic is effective once more. Signed-off-by:

When GRO is successfully merging received packets, we should allocate raw page buffers rather than skbs that will be discarded by GRO. Otherwise, we should allocate skbs. GRO also benefits from higher interrupt moderation, so increase the score for mergeable RX packets. Signed-off-by:
-
Ben Hutchings authored
This will allow drivers to adjust their receive path dynamically based on whether GRO is being applied successfully. Currently all in-tree callers ignore the return values of these functions and do not need to be changed. Signed-off-by:

Currently PACKET_TX_RING forces certain amount of every frame to remain unused. This probably originates from an early version of the PACKET_TX_RING patch that in fact used the extra space when the (since removed) CONFIG_PACKET_MMAP_ZERO_COPY option was enabled. The current code does not make any use of this extra space. This patch removes the extra space reservation and lets userspace make use of the full frame size. Signed-off-by:

proto_ops->getname implies copying protocol specific data into storage unit (particulary to __kernel_sockaddr_storage). So when we implement new protocol support we should keep such a detail in mind (which is easy to forget about). Lets introduce DECLARE_SOCKADDR helper which check if storage unit is not overfowed at build time. Eventually inet_getname is switched to use DECLARE_SOCKADDR (to show example of usage).

Some workloads hit dev_base_lock rwlock pretty hard. We can use RCU lookups to avoid touching this rwlock. netdevices are already freed after a RCU grace period, so this patch adds no penalty at device dismantle time. dev_ifname() converted to dev_get_by_index_rcu() Signed-off-by:

If there is data, the unsigned skb->len is greater than 0. rt.sigdigits is unsigned as well, so the test `>= 0' is always true, the other part of the test catches wrapped values. Signed-off-by:

The CAPI interface incorrectly assumed that CAPI messages would always start at the beginning of the data buffer: fix by treating DATA_B3 messages as the link layer header to their payload data. This fix changes the way acknowledgement information is propagated through the hardware specific modules and thereby impacts the ISDN4Linux variant of the driver, too. Also some assumptions about methods not being called from interrupt context turned out to be unwarranted; fix by using dev_kfree_skb_any() wherever non-interrupt context isn't guaranteed. Impact: bugfix Signed-off-by:

A missing dot lead to garbage characters being included in the dial command generated from a CAPI CONNECT_REQ message, which interestingly enough worked anyway, illustrating the resilience of the device. Impact: bugfix Signed-off-by:
