I would like to submit a correction to the driver

     drivers/net/8139too.c,

which in no way changes the compiled driver, but does change
the value of a previously incorrect value for the configuration
register address of Flash PROM on the network processor rtl8139C.
This corrected value is in accordance with the datasheet
for rtl8139C, and in addition this new value is indeed used
in other functional drivers that use this adapter for
programming a Flash memory chip in situ. But as said,
the two new constants are never referenced in the driver
maintained by you: they are only informational and correct!

VLAN doesn't work except if you'd opened the interface in promiscuous
mode before.  This happens because VLAN tag stripping is not correctly
marked as enabled at device startup

Also, the vlan_strip_flag field was moved to the private network
structure.

IPv6 all-node-multicasts and DAD probes should not be tx-balanced
on ALB/TLB bonds.  The all-node-multicast is an equivalent to IPv4
broadcasts.  DAD probes have to be sent only on the primary so that
we don't get false-positive detections.

Lockdep warns about the mdio_lock taken with interrupts enabled then later
taken from interrupt context.  Initially, I considered changing these
to spin_lock_irq/spin_unlock_irq, but then I looked at atl1e_phy_init()
and saw that it calls msleep().  Sleeping while holding a spinlock is
not allowed either.

In the probe path, we haven't registered the interrupt handler, so
it can't poke at this card yet.  It's before we call register_netdev(),
so I don't think any other threads can reach this card either.  If I'm
right, we don't need a spinlock at all.

Seems like the spinlock for the AU1x00 ethernet device is initialised too
late, as it is already used in enable_mac(), which is called via
mii_probe() before the init takes place.

The attached patch is working here for a Linux Au1100 2.6.22.6 kernel,
and as far as I checked should also be applicable to the current head
(just line numbers differ).

sparc32 allmodconfig with linux-next:

drivers/net/mlx4/alloc.c: In function 'mlx4_buf_alloc':

drivers/net/mlx4/alloc.c:164: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
drivers/net/mlx4/alloc.c:164: error: for each function it appears in.)

this is due to some header shuffle in linux-next.  I didn't look to see what
it was.  I'd sugges that this patch be merged ahead of a linux-next merge to
avoid bisection breaks.

We strictly only need asm/pgtable.h, but going direct to asm includes always

The de2104x did a pci_disable_device() in it's close function, but
the open function never does a pci_enable_device() and assumes that
the device is already enabled. Considering that downing the interface
is just a temporary thing the pci_disable_device() isn't a pretty good
idea and removing it from the close function just fixes the bug.

If we don't unlink the SKB from the queue when we send it
out in aoenet_xmit(), dev_hard_start_xmit() will see skb->next
as non-NULL and interpret this to mean the SKB is part of a

Add __skb_unlink() call to fix that.

The current check wrongly uses the state of one (currently the first)
tx queue for all tx queues in case of non-default qdiscs. This check
mainly prevented requeuing loop with __netif_schedule(), but now it's
controlled inside __qdisc_run(), while dequeuing. The wrongness of
this check was first noticed by Herbert Xu.

This patch add support for keeping an additional character alias
associated with an network interface. This is useful for maintaining
the SNMP ifAlias value which is a user defined value. Routers use this
to hold information like which circuit or line it is connected to. It
is just an arbitrary text label on the network device.

There are two exposed interfaces with this patch, the value can be
read/written either via netlink or sysfs.

This could be maintained just by the snmp daemon, but it is more
generally useful for other management tools, and the kernel is good
place to act as an agreed upon interface to store it.
