The message "nf_log_packet: can't log since no backend logging module loaded in! Please either load one, or disable logging explicitly" was displayed for each logged packet when no userspace application is listening to nflog events. The message seems to warn for a problem with a kernel module missing but as said before this is not the case. I thus propose to suppress the message (I don't see any reason to flood the log because a user application has crashed.)

Most legacy software do not like tables > 255 as rtm_table is u8 so tb_id is sent &0xff and it is possible to mismatch for example table 510 with table 254 (main). This patch introduces RT_TABLE_COMPAT=252 so the code uses it if tb_id > 255. It makes such old applications happy, new ones are still able to use RTA_TABLE to get a proper table id.

virtio_net uses a timer to free old transmitted packets, rather than leaving callbacks enabled all the time. If the host promises to always notify us when the transmit ring is empty, we can free packets at that point and avoid the timer.

virtio_net currently only frees old transmit skbs just before queueing new ones. If the queue is full, it then enables interrupts and waits for notification that more work has been performed. However, a side-effect of this scheme is that there are always xmit skbs left dangling when no new packets are sent, against the Documentation/networking/driver.txt guideline: "... it is not allowed for your TX mitigation scheme to let TX packets "hang out" in the TX ring unreclaimed forever if no new TX packets are sent." Add a timer to ensure that any time we queue new TX skbs, we will shortly free them again. This fixes an easily reproduced hang at shutdown where iptables attempts to unload nf_conntrack and nf_conntrack waits for an skb it is tracking to be freed, but virtio_net never frees it.

hdr->csum_start is the offset from the start of the ethernet header to the transport layer checksum field. skb->csum_start is the offset from skb->head. skb_partial_csum_set() assumes that skb->data points to the ethernet header - i.e. it computes skb->csum_start by adding the headroom to hdr->csum_start. Since eth_type_trans() skb_pull()s the ethernet header, skb_partial_csum_set() should be called before eth_type_trans(). (Without this patch, GSO packets from a guest to the world outside the host are corrupted).

When pfkey has no km listeners, it still does a lot of work before finding out there aint nobody out there. If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound? In this case it makes a lot of noise: With this short-circuit adding 10s of thousands of SAs using netlink improves performance by ~10%.

The length field in the PPPOE header wasn't checked completely. This patch causes all packets shorter than the declared length to be dropped. It also changes the memcpy_toiovec call to skb_copy_datagram_iovec so that paged packets (rare for PPPOE) are handled properly.

This patch fixes a potential memory corruption in pppol2tp_recvmsg(). If skb->len is bigger than the caller's buffer length, memcpy_toiovec() will go into unintialized data on the kernel heap, interpret it as an iovec and start modifying memory. The fix is to change the memcpy_toiovec() call to skb_copy_datagram_iovec() so that paged packets (rare for PPPOL2TP) are handled properly. Also check that the caller's buffer is big enough for the data and set the MSG_TRUNC flag if it is not so.

On 5761 non-e devices, two problems prevent the administrator from overriding the WOL settings in the device's NVRAM. The first problem is that GPIO 0 and GPIO 2 have been swapped. This change prevented the administrator from turning on WOL when it is disabled in NVRAM. The fix is to add a new path for the 5761 that swaps the two GPIOs in the code as well. The second problem is that GPIO 1 could not be toggled by the driver because the GPIO is shared with the debug UART GPIO. This will prevent the administrator from being able to turn WOL off if it was enabled in NVRAM. The fix is to always disable the debug UART after a GRC reset.

The git commit ef167e27 entitled "Fix supporting flowctrl code" introduced a bug that prevents 5714S, 5715S and 5780S devices from falling back to a forced link mode. The problem is that the added flow control check will always fail if flow control is set to autoneg and either RX or TX (or both) flow control is enabled. The driver defaults to setting flow control to autoneg and advertises both RX and TX flow control. The fix is to remove the errant check.
