This adds a PHC to the mlx4_en driver. We use reader/writer spinlocks to protect the timecounter since every packet received needs to call timecounter_cycle2time() when timestamping is enabled. This can become a performance bottleneck with RSS and multiple receive queues if normal spinlocks are used. This driver has been tested with both Documentation/ptp/testptp and the linuxptp project (http://linuxptp.sourceforge.net/) on a Mellanox ConnectX-3 card.

Set the return variable to an error code as done elsewhere in the function. A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> ( if@p1 (\(ret < 0\|ret != 0\)) { ... return ret; } | ret@p1 = 0 ) ... when != ret = e1 when != &ret *if(...) { ... when != ret = e2 when forall return ret; } // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall@lip6.fr> Signed-off-by: David S.

Gratuitous arp packets are useful in switchover scenarios to update client arp tables as quickly as possible. Currently, the mac address of a neighbour is only updated after a locktime period has elapsed since the last update. In most use cases such delays are unacceptable for network admins. Moreover, the "updated" field of the neighbour stucture doesn't record the last time the address of a neighbour changed but records any change that happens to the neighbour. This is clearly a bug since locktime uses that field as meaning "addr_updated". With this observation, I was able to perpetuate a stale address by sending a stream of gratuitous arp packets spaced less than locktime apart. With this change the address is updated when a gratuitous arp is received and the arp_accept sysctl is set.

Ding Tianhong says: ==================== bonding: slight optimization for bonding This serious of patches will slight optimize the mac address compare and xmit path for bonding, also make some cleanups. Julia was using ether_addr_equal_64bits to instead of ether_addr_equal, it is really a hard work and she may did not make patch for bonding yet, so I have do it in this patchset and that she could miss the bonding drivers. resend and add cc for Julia. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

I'm sure the operand slave and bond for the function will not be NULL, so the check for the bond will not make any sense, so remove the judgement, and the return value was useless here, remove the unwanted return value.

When the skb is xmit by the function bond_slave_override(), it will have duplicate judgement for slave state, and I think it will consumes a little performance, maybe it is negligible, so I simplify the function and remove the unwanted judgement.

The bond_alb_xmit will check the return value for bond_dev_queue_xmit() every time, but the bond_dev_queue_xmit() is always return 0, it is no need to check the value every time, so remove the unneed judgement for the xmit path.

John W. Linville says: ==================== pull request: wireless-next 2014-01-01 These patches were tucked-in with me for my long winter's nap! Please pull them for the 3.14 stream... For the mac80211 bits, Johannes says: "Here I just have a collection of fixes/improvements/cleanups, very little really stands out apart from CSA fixes, vendor command support and the RCU speedups." For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says: "I have hear quite a few things. Alex continues his work on power management. Arik is reworking the transport API by unifying redudant APIs and making error handling more generic. Eyal keeps on digging in the rate scaling code. We also have two new features - Max is using the brand new generic cipher infrastructure in mac80211, and Lilach implements the smart fifo which allows to save power by making interrupt coalescing smarter." Along with those, Arend and company bring a batch of brcmfmac. Sujith and Felix bring the usual high level of ath9k activity as well. Bing gives mwifiex some love as well, and a handful of other bits get updates here and there. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The buffer that is used to pass doorbell offset to the userspace UIO driver may contain nonzero value in older versions of bnx2x driver. Userspace cannot easily tell whether it contains a valid doorbell offset or not. With the added signature, userspace will only use the doorbell offset if the signature is present.
