Instead of having the getsockopt() of SO_BINDTODEVICE return an index, which will then require another call like if_indextoname() to get the actual interface name, have it return the name directly. This also matches the existing man page description on socket(7) which mentions the argument being an interface name. If the value has not been set, zero is returned and optlen will be set to zero to indicate there is no interface name present. Added a seqlock to protect this code path, and dev_ifname(), from someone changing the device name via dev_change_name(). v2: Added seqlock protection while copying device name. v3: Fixed word wrap in patch.

GMAC devices newer than databook 3.40 has an embedded timer that can be used for mitigating the number of interrupts. So this patch adds this optimizations. At any rate, the Rx watchdog can be disable (on bugged HW) by passing from the platform the riwt_off field. In this implementation the rx timer stored in the Reg9 is fixed to the max value. This will be tuned by using ethtool. V2: added a platform parameter to force to disable the rx-watchdog for example on new core where it is bugged. V3: do not disable NAPI when Rx watchdog is used. V4: a new extra statistic field has been added to show the early receive status in the interrupt handler. This patch also adds an extra check to avoid to call napi_schedule when the DMA_INTR_ENA_RIE bit is disabled in the Interrupt Mask register.

This patch adds a new schema used for mitigating the number of transmit interrupts. It is based on a SW timer and a threshold value. The timer is used to periodically call the stmmac_tx_clean function; the threshold is used for setting the IC (Interrupt on Completion bit). The ISR will then invoke the poll method. Also the patch improves some ethtool stat fields. V2: review the logic to manage the IC bit in the TDESC that was bugged because it didn't take care about the fragments. Also fix the tx_count_frames that has not to be limited to TX DMA ring. Thanks to Ben Hutchings. V3: removed the spin_lock irqsave/restore as D. Miller suggested.

There's really no excuse for an additional wmem_default of buffering between the netdev queue and the ATM device. Two packets (one in-flight, and one ready to send) ought to be fine. It's not as if it should take long to get another from the netdev queue when we need it. If necessary we can make the queue space configurable later, but I don't think it's likely to be necessary. cf. commit 9d02daf7 (pppoatm: Fix excessive queue bloat) which did something very similar for PPPoATM. Note that there is a tremendously unlikely race condition which may result in qspace temporarily going negative. If a CPU running the br2684_pop() function goes off into the weeds for a long period of time after incrementing qspace to 1, but before calling netdev_wake_queue()... and another CPU ends up calling br2684_start_xmit() and *stopping* the queue again before the first CPU comes back, the netdev queue could end up being woken when qspace has already reached zero. An alternative approach to coping with this race would be to check in br2684_start_xmit() for qspace==0 and return NETDEV_TX_BUSY, but just using '> 0' and '< 1' for comparison instead of '== 0' and '!= 0' is simpler. It just warranted a mention of *why* we do it that way... Move the call to atmvcc->send() to happen *after* the accounting and potentially stopping the netdev queue, in br2684_xmit_vcc(). This matters if the ->send() call suffers an immediate failure, because it'll call br2684_pop() with the offending skb before returning. We want that to happen *after* we've done the initial accounting for the packet in question. Also make it return an appropriate success/failure indication while we're at it. Tested by running 'ping -l 1000 bottomless.aaisp.net.uk' from within my network, with only a single PPPoE-over-BR2684 link running. And after setting txqueuelen on the nas0 interface to something low (5, in fact). Before the patch, we'd see about 15 packets being queued and a resulting latency of ~56ms being reached. After the patch, we see only about 8, which is fairly much what we expect. And a max latency of ~36ms. On this OpenWRT box, wmem_default is 163840.

Commit 82167cb8 ('net: dsa/slave: Fix compilation warnings') fixed one possible invalid configuration (NET_DSA enabled with no trailer formats) but added others: drivers can select NET_DSA without its dependencies being met. It's not very useful to make either the DSA core or the tagging formats manually selectable without a driver to use them, so: 1. Define a hidden HAVE_NET_DSA option and move the dependencies of NET_DSA to that. While we're at it, drop the deprecated EXPERIMENTAL dependency. 2. Make NET_DSA and the drivers dependent on HAVE_NET_DSA. 3. Hide the tagging format options again. 4. Make drivers select both NET_DSA and the appropriate tagging format option.

This is done by some changes in config options, which make more sense than the earlier approach. As, atleast one tagging option must always be selected for using net/dsa/ infrastructure, this patch selects NET_DSA from tagging configs instead of having it as an selectable config.

This fixes (for me) a regression introduced by commit b01af457 ("8139cp: set ring address before enabling receiver"). That commit configured the descriptor ring addresses earlier in the initialisation sequence, in order to avoid the possibility of triggering stray DMA before the correct address had been set up. Unfortunately, it seems that the hardware will scribble garbage into the TxRingAddr registers when we enable "plus mode" Tx in the CpCmd register. Observed on a Traverse Geos router board. To deal with this, while not reintroducing the problem which led to the original commit, we augment cp_start_hw() to write to the CpCmd register *first*, then set the descriptor ring addresses, and then finally to enable Rx and Tx in the original 8139 Cmd register. The datasheet actually indicates that we should enable Tx/Rx in the Cmd register *before* configuring the descriptor addresses, but that would appear to re-introduce the problem that the offending commit b01af457 was trying to solve. And this variant appears to work fine on real hardware. Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com> Cc: stable@kernel.org [3.5+] Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Pull MTD fixes from David Woodhouse: "The most important part of this is that it fixes a regression in Samsung NAND chip detection, introduced by some rework which went into 3.7. The initial fix wasn't quite complete, so it's in two parts. In fact the first part is committed twice (Artem committed his own copy of the same patch) and I've merged Artem's tree into mine which already had that fix. I'd have recommitted that to make it somewhat cleaner, but figured by this point in the release cycle it was better to merge *exactly* the commits which have been in linux-next. If I'd recommitted, I'd also omit the sparse warning fix. But it's there, and it's harmless — just marking one function as 'static' in onenand code. This also includes a couple more fixes for stable: an AB-BA deadlock in JFFS2, and an invalid range check in slram." * tag 'for-linus-20121123' of git://git.infradead.org/mtd-2.6: mtd: nand: fix Samsung SLC detection regression mtd: nand: fix Samsung SLC NAND identification regression jffs2: Fix lock acquisition order bug in jffs2_write_begin mtd: onenand: Make flexonenand_set_boundary static mtd: slram: invalid checking of absolute end address mtd: ofpart: Fix incorrect NULL check in parse_ofoldpart_partitions() mtd: nand: fix Samsung SLC NAND identification regression

This bug-fix makes sure that of_iomap is defined extern for sparc so that the sparc-specific implementation of_iomap is once again used when including include/linux/of_address.h in a sparc context. OF_GPIO that is now available for sparc relies on this. The bug was inadvertently introduced in a850a755, "of/address: add empty static inlines for !CONFIG_OF", that added a static dummy inline for of_iomap when !CONFIG_OF_ADDRESS. However, CONFIG_OF_ADDRESS is never defined for sparc, but there is a sparc-specific implementation /arch/sparc/kernel/of_device_common.c. This fix takes the same approach as 0bce04be that solved the equivalent problem for of_address_to_resource.
