Suppose that we receive lots of frames, start processing them, but exhaust our budget so that we return before we had a chance to look at all of them. Then, when the network layer calls us again, we will only continue processing the buffers if the REC bit was set in the mean time, which it might not be if there was a brief pause in the flow of packets. If this happens, we'll simply display a warning and call netif_rx_complete() with potentially lots of unprocessed packets in the RX ring... Fix this by scanning the ring no matter what flags are set in the interrupt status register. Signed-off-by:

When transfering large amounts of data we sometimes experienced that the Retry Limit Exceeded (RLE) bit got set in TSR during transmission attempts. When this happened the driver would stall in a state that prevented any more data from being sent. Signed-off-by:

The traffic classes in hardware are not symmetrical for Rx and Tx. Rx is every 16 descriptor queues, Tx is not. It runs 32-32-16-16-8-8-8 when running with 8 traffic classes, and runs 64-32-16 when running with 4 traffic classes. This patch fixes the mapping. Signed-off-by:

If the e1000 transmit cleanup inner loop exited early, then cleaned might not be true. This could cause tx hangs or other badness. Use count to track the total number of descriptors cleaned instead of basing a tx queue restart off of a temporary working state variable. This code now makes the flow the same for e1000/e1000e/igb/ixgbe Signed-off-by:

The removal of the SAME target accidentally removed one feature that is not available from the normal NAT targets so far, having multi-range mappings that use the same mapping for each connection from a single client. The current behaviour is to choose the address from the range based on source and destination IP, which breaks when communicating with sites having multiple addresses that require all connections to originate from the same IP address. Introduce a IP_NAT_RANGE_PERSISTENT option that controls whether the destination address is taken into account for selecting addresses. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12954Signed-off-by:

Prevent ixgbe from putting the adapter into D3 during shutdown except when we're going to power off the system, since doing that may generally cause problems with kexec to happen (such problems were observed for igb and forcedeth). For this purpose seperate ixgbe_shutdown() from ixgbe_suspend() and use the appropriate PCI PM callbacks in both of them. Signed-off-by:

Don't do the num_tx_queues based masking on calculating tx queue index. 1) num_tx_queues is not always power-of-2, because it also depends on the online cpu numbers. So the masking could be a performance bug on a 6 cpu system. 2) queue_mapping will be limited by real_num_tx_queues=num_tx_queues in the generic netdev function set_cur_queue_map(). So the bound limiting here is not necessary. Signed-off-by: -

This reverts commit 244f46ae. Alan Cox did the research, and just like the other radio protocols zero-length frames have meaning because at the top level ROSE is X.25 PLP. So this zero-length filtering is invalid. Signed-off-by:

falcon_sim_phy_event() used EFX_OWORD_FIELD, which operates on bitfields in 128-bit values, on an event, which is a 64-bit value. This should be harmless - these macros always use little-endian ordering, so it would read and write back the following 8 bytes unchanged - but it is obviously wrong. Signed-off-by:

The BUG_ON(skge->tx_ring.to_use != skge->tx_ring.to_clean) in skge_up() was sometimes observed when setting MTU. skge_down() disables the TX queue, but then reenables it by mistake via skge_tx_clean(). Fix it by moving the waking of the queue from skge_tx_clean() to the other caller. And to make sure start_xmit is not in progress on another CPU, skge_down() should call netif_tx_disable(). The bug was reported to me by Jiri Jilek whose Debian system sometimes failed to boot. He tested the patch and the bug did not happen anymore. Signed-off-by:

When I made the tun driver use non-linear packets as the preferred option, it broke non-GSO users because they would end up allocating a completely non-linear packet, which triggers a crash when we call eth_type_trans. This patch reverts non-GSO users to using linear packets and adds a check to ensure that GSO users can't cause crashes in the same way. Signed-off-by:

Hi: gro: Normalise skb before bypassing GRO on netpoll VLAN path When we detect netpoll RX on the GRO VLAN path we bail out and call the normal VLAN receive handler. However, the packet needs to be normalised by calling eth_type_trans since that's what the normal path expects (normally the GRO path does the fixup). This patch adds the necessary call to vlan_gro_frags. Signed-off-by:
