On a busy network, the macb driver could get stuck in the interrupt handler, quickly triggering the watchdog, due to a confluence of factors: 1. macb_poll re-enables interrupts unconditionally, even when it will be called again because it exhausted its rx budget 2. macb_interrupt only disables interrupts after scheduling macb_poll, but scheduling fails when macb_poll is already scheduled because it didn't call napi_complete 3. macb_interrupt loops until the interrupt status register is clear, which will never happen in this case if the driver doesn't disable the RX interrupt Since macb_interrupt runs in interrupt context, this effectively locks up the machine, triggering the hardware watchdog. This issue was readily reproducible on a flooded network with a modified 2.6.27.48 kernel. The same problem appears to still be in the 2.6.36-rc8 driver code, so I am submitting this patch against that version. I have not tested this version of the patch except to make sure the kernel compiles. Signed-off-by: Joshua Hoke <joshua.hoke@sixnet.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Calling netif_carrier_off before register_netdev was causing the network interface to miss a linkwatch pending event leading to an inconsistent state if the link is not up when interface is initialized.This is now invoked after register_netdev.

commit 6c04bb18 (netlink: use call_rcu for netlink_change_ngroups) used a somewhat convoluted and racy way to perform call_rcu(). The old block of memory is freed after a grace period, but the rcu_head used to track it is located in new block. This can clash if we call two times or more netlink_change_ngroups(), and a block is freed before another. call_rcu() called on different cpus makes no guarantee in order of callbacks. Fix this using a more standard way of handling this : Each block of memory contains its own rcu_head, so that no 'use after free' can happens.

Adding shutdown function that setup wake if wol is enabled. Add jme_phy_on in jme_set_100m_half in case it is shutting down or suspending when interface is down(phy_off by default). v2 updates: Removed CONFIG_PM ifdef for jme_set_100m_half and jme_wait_link. It would be nice if it can be applied to net-2.6 along with other patches sent few days ago. If it is not appropriate, please ignore the net-2.6 request, and apply it to net-next-2.6 as previous patch. :) Reported-and-helped-by: Сtac <Taoga@yandex.ru> Signed-off-by: Guo-Fu Tseng <cooldavid@cooldavid.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

The temporary variable "i" is needlessly initialized to zero in two distinct cases in this file: 1) where it is set to zero and then used as an argument in an addition before being assigned a non-zero value. 2) where it is only used in a standard/typical loop counter For (1), simply delete assignment to zero and usages while still zero; for (2) simply make the loop start at zero as per standard practice as seen everywhere else in the same file.

The AT91_MID_MIDE bit must be set in order to receive extended frames. The reception of an extended frame sets this bit, while reception of standard frames resets it. This results in some lost extended frames in an extended ID only environment. But leads to unpredictable lost extended ID frames in a mixed environment. The problem is fixed by setting the AT91_MID_MIDE after reception of a CAN frame. Signed-off-by: Marc Kleine-Budde <mkl@pengutronix.de> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
