This patch improves the logic determining when to send ICMPv6 Router Solicitations, so that they are 1) always sent when the kernel is accepting Router Advertisements, and 2) never sent when the kernel is not accepting RAs. In other words, the operational setting of the "accept_ra" sysctl is used. The change also makes the special "Hybrid Router" forwarding mode ("forwarding" sysctl set to 2) operate exactly the same as the standard Router mode (forwarding=1). The only difference between the two was that RSes was being sent in the Hybrid Router mode only. The sysctl documentation describing the special Hybrid Router mode has therefore been removed. Rationale for the change: Currently, the value of forwarding sysctl is the only thing determining whether or not to send RSes. If it has the value 0 or 2, they are sent, otherwise they are not. This leads to inconsistent behaviour in the following cases: * accept_ra=0, forwarding=0 * accept_ra=0, forwarding=2 * accept_ra=1, forwarding=2 * accept_ra=2, forwarding=1 In the first three cases, the kernel will send RSes, even though it will not accept any RAs received in reply. In the last case, it will not send any RSes, even though it will accept and process any RAs received. (Most routers will send unsolicited RAs periodically, so suppressing RSes in the last case will merely delay auto-configuration, not prevent it.) Also, it is my opinion that having the forwarding sysctl control RS sending behaviour (completely independent of whether RAs are being accepted or not) is simply not what most users would intuitively expect to be the case.

This patch adds a CAN Gateway/Router to route (and modify) CAN frames. It is based on the PF_CAN core infrastructure for msg filtering and msg sending and can optionally modify routed CAN frames on the fly. CAN frames can *only* be routed between CAN network interfaces (one hop). They can be modified with AND/OR/XOR/SET operations as configured by the netlink configuration interface known e.g. from iptables. From the netlink view this can-gw implements RTM_{NEW|DEL|GET}ROUTE for PF_CAN. The CAN specific userspace tool to manage CAN routing entries can be found in the CAN utils http://svn.berlios.de/wsvn/socketcan/trunk/can-utils/cangw.c at the SocketCAN SVN on BerliOS.

An earlier developer misunderstood the meaning of the 'irq' fields and the driver did not support the standard fields. To avoid invalidating existing user documentation, we report and accept changes through either the standard or 'irq' fields. If both are changed at the same time, we prefer the standard field. Also explain why we don't currently use the 'max_frames' fields. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The reported TX IRQ moderation is generated in a completely crazy way. Make it simple and correct. When channels are shared between RX and TX, TX IRQ moderation must be the same as RX IRQ moderation, but must be specified as 0! Allow it to be either specified as the same, or left at its previous value in which case it will be quietly overridden.

It was possible to inadvertently add additional interrupt causes to the MSI-X other interrupt. This occurred when things such as RX buffer overrun events were being triggered at the same time as an event such as a Flow Director table reinit request. In order to avoid this we should be explicitly programming only the interrupts that we want enabled. In addition I am renaming the ixgbe_msix_lsc function and interrupt to drop any implied meaning of this being a link status only interrupt. Unfortunately the patch is a bit ugly due to the fact that ixgbe_irq_enable needed to be moved up before ixgbe_msix_other in order to have things defined in the correct order.

This change is meant to cleanup some of the code related to SR-IOV and the interrupt registers. Specifically I am moving the EITRSEL configuration into the MSI-X configuration section instead of enablement. Also I am fixing the VF shutdown path since it had operations in the incorrect order.

This change updated the TXDCTL configuration. The main goal is to be much more explicit about the configuration and avoid a possible fake TX hang when the interrupt throttle rate is set to 0.

This patch is a minor whitespace cleanup to compress the device ID declaration and board type declaration onto the same line. It seems to make sense since all of the combinations of the two are less than 80 characters and it makes the overall layout a bit more readable.

This change consolidates all of the MSI-X interrupt and polling routines into two single functions. One for the interrupt and one for the code. The main advantage to doing this is that the compiler can optimize the routines into single monolithic functions which should allow all of them function to occupy a single block of memory and as such avoid jumping around.

This change makes it so that the default Tx work limit is 256 buffers or 1/2 of an entire ring instead of a full ring size so that it is much more likely that we will be able to actually reach the work limit value. Previously with the value set to an entire ring it would not have been possible for us to trigger an event due to the fact that the Tx work is stopped at the point where we cannot place one more buffer on the ring and it is not restarted until cleanup is complete.

This patch does several things: - introduces __ethtool_get_settings which is called from ethtool code and from drivers as well. Put ASSERT_RTNL there. - dev_ethtool_get_settings() is replaced by __ethtool_get_settings() - changes calling in drivers so rtnl locking is respected. In iboe_get_rate was previously ->get_settings() called unlocked. This fixes it. Also prb_calc_retire_blk_tmo() in af_packet.c had the same problem. Also fixed by calling __dev_get_by_index() instead of dev_get_by_index() and holding rtnl_lock for both calls. - introduces rtnl_lock in bnx2fc_vport_create() and fcoe_vport_create() so bnx2fc_if_create() and fcoe_if_create() are called locked as they are from other places. - use __ethtool_get_settings() in bonding code Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko <jpirko@redhat.com> v2->v3: -removed dev_ethtool_get_settings() -added ASSERT_RTNL into __ethtool_get_settings() -prb_calc_retire_blk_tmo - use __dev_get_by_index() and lock around it and __ethtool_get_settings() call v1->v2: add missing export_symbol Reviewed-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> [except FCoE bits] Acked-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

In older devices, 1-shot MSI mode had to be enabled by the code. In newer devices however, 1-shot MSI mode is enabled by default; code would be needed to disable it. Disabling 1-shot MSI mode is useful when debugging. This patch changes the code so that the TG3_FLAG_1SHOT_MSI accurately reflects (and controls) the state of 1-shot MSI mode.

MII Kconfig option is apart of the core networking drivers and by default NET_CORE is enabled so drivers selecting MII will have MII enabled as well. It was found using the randconfig option during testing, MII would be selected but NET_CORE could be disabled. This caused a dependency error. Resolved the dependency by selecting NET_CORE when MII is selected.
