When I initially implemented this protocol, I disregarded the use of netlink attribute headers, thinking for my purposes they weren't needed. I've come to find out that, as I'm starting to work with sending down messages with associated data (like config messages), the kernel code spits out warnings about trailing data in a netlink skb that doesn't have an associated header on it. As such, I'm going to start including attribute headers in my netlink transaction, and so for completeness, I should likely include them on messages bound from the kernel to user space. This patch adds that header to the kernel, and bumps the protocol version accordingly Signed-off-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

82598 and 82599 do not support SFP 1G modules. Instead of allowing the driver to load, but never get link, rejecting the module and displaying a useful message is more preferrable. The framework for displaying the failure message already exists, now we just need to detect and reject the SFP modules.

The igb driver was switching between adapter->itr containing the EITR value and the number of interrupts per second. This resulted in high latencies being seen after brining the interface down and then back up. To resolve the issue the itr value will now only contain the value that should be programmed into EITR.

Pointed out by Sean E. Millichamp. Quote from Documentation/networking/bonding.txt: "Note that when a bonding interface has no active links, the driver will immediately reuse the first link that goes up, even if the updelay parameter has been specified (the updelay is ignored in this case). If there are slave interfaces waiting for the updelay timeout to expire, the interface that first went into that state will be immediately reused. This reduces down time of the network if the value of updelay has been overestimated, and since this occurs only in cases with no connectivity, there is no additional penalty for ignoring the updelay." This patch actually changes the behaviour in this way.

Modules are not supposed to use any of the *_initcall*() hooks as the entry point. fsl_pq_mdio.c was using subsys_initcall_sync() instead of module_init() to guarantee that the MDIO bus was initialized before the Ethernet driver goes looking for the phy. However, the recent OF helpers rework happens to also make sure PHY connection is deferred to .open time, so using an initcall is no longer necessary. This patch replaces the initcall with a more traditional an accepted module_init() call. Tested on Freescale MPC8349emitxgp eval board.

This patch adds support for the Xilinx ll_temac 10/100/1000 Ethernet device. The ll_temac ipcore is typically used on Xilinx Virtex and Spartan designs attached to either a PowerPC 4xx or Microblaze processor. At the present moment, this driver only works with Virtex5 PowerPC designs because it assumes DCR is used to access the DMA registers. However, the low level access to DMA registers is abstracted and it should be easy to adapt for the other implementations. I'm posting this driver now as an RFC. There are still some things that need to be tightened up, but it does appear to be stable. Derived from driver code written by Yoshio Kashiwagi and David H. Lynch Jr. Tested on Xilinx ML507 eval board with Base System Builder generated FPGA design.

The patch reworks the MPC5200 Fast Ethernet Controller (FEC) driver to use the of_mdio infrastructure for registering PHY devices from data out openfirmware device tree, and eliminates the assumption that the PHY for the FEC is always attached to the FEC's own MDIO bus. With this patch, the FEC can use a PHY attached to any MDIO bus if it is described in the device tree.

Add support for parsing the device tree for PHY devices on an MDIO bus. Currently many of the PowerPC ethernet drivers are open coding a solution for reading data out of the device tree to find the correct PHY device. This patch implements a set of common routines to: a) let MDIO bus drivers register phy_devices described in the tree, and b) let MAC drivers find the correct phy_device via the tree.

Add phy_connect_direct() and phy_attach_direct() functions so that drivers can use a pointer to the phy_device instead of trying to determine the phy's bus_id string.

This patch makes changes in preparation for supporting open firmware device tree descriptions of MDIO busses. Changes include: - Cleanup handling of phy_map[] entries; they are already NULLed when registering and so don't need to be re-cleared, and it is good practice to clear them out when unregistering. - Split phy_device registration out into a new function so that the OF helpers can do two stage registration (separate allocation and registration steps).

The SO_MSGLIMIT socket option modifies the message limit for new IUCV communication paths. The message limit specifies the maximum number of outstanding messages that are allowed for connections. This setting can be lowered by z/VM when an IUCV connection is established. Expects an integer value in the range of 1 to 65535. The default value is 65535. The message limit must be set before calling connect() or listen() for sockets. If sockets are already connected or in state listen, changing the message limit is not supported. For reading the message limit value, unconnected sockets return the limit that has been set or the default limit. For connected sockets, the actual message limit is returned. The actual message limit is assigned by z/VM for each connection and it depends on IUCV MSGLIMIT authorizations specified for the z/VM guest virtual machine.

This patch provides the socket type SOCK_SEQPACKET in addition to SOCK_STREAM. AF_IUCV sockets of type SOCK_SEQPACKET supports an 1:1 mapping of socket read or write operations to complete IUCV messages. Socket data or IUCV message data is not fragmented as this is the case for SOCK_STREAM sockets. The intention is to help application developers who write applications or device drivers using native IUCV interfaces (Linux kernel or z/VM IUCV interfaces).

Allow 'classification' of socket data that is sent or received over an af_iucv socket. For classification of data, the target class of an (native) iucv message is used. This patch provides the cmsg interface for iucv_sock_recvmsg() and iucv_sock_sendmsg(). Applications can use the msg_control field of struct msghdr to set or get the target class as a "socket control message" (SCM/CMSG).

The patch allows to send and receive data in the parameter list of an iucv message. The parameter list is an arry of 8 bytes that are used by af_iucv as follows: 0..6 7 bytes for socket data and 7 1 byte to store the data length. Instead of storing the data length directly, the difference between 0xFF and the data length is used. This convention does not interfere with the existing use of PRM messages for shutting down the send direction of an AF_IUCV socket (shutdown() operation). Data lenghts greater than 7 (or PRM message byte 8 is less than 0xF8) denotes to special messages. Currently, the special SEND_SHUTDOWN message is supported only. To use IPRM messages, both communicators must set the IUCV_IPRMDATA flag during path negotiation, i.e. in iucv_connect() and path_pending(). To be compatible to older af_iucv implementations, sending PRM messages is controlled by the socket option SO_IPRMDATA_MSG. Receiving PRM messages does not depend on the socket option (but requires the IUCV_IPRMDATA path flag to be set). Sending/Receiving data in the parameter list improves performance for small amounts of data by reducing message_completion() interrupts and memory copy operations.

The maximum sleep interval, for powersave purposes, is determined by the DTIM period (it may not be larger) and the required networking latency (it must be small enough to fulfil those constraints). This makes mac80211 calculate the maximum sleep interval based on those constraints, and pass it to the driver. Then the driver should instruct the device to sleep at most that long. Note that the device is responsible for aligning the maximum sleep interval between DTIMs, we make sure it's not longer but it needs to make sure it's between them. Also, group some powersave documentation together and make it more explicit that we support managed mode only, and no IBSS powersaving (yet).
