This patch adds VLAN hardware support for Rhine chips. The driver uses up to 3 additional bytes of buffer space when extracting 802.1Q headers; PKT_BUF_SZ should still be sufficient. The initial code was provided by David Lv. I reworked it to use standard kernel facilities. Coding style clean up mostly follows via-velocity. Adapted to new interface for VLAN acceleration (per request of Jesse Gross).

While doing this analysis, I found a refcount bug in llc, I'll send a patch for net-2.6 Meanwhile, here is the patch for net-next-2.6 Your patch then can be applied after mine. Thanks [PATCH] net: RCU conversion of dev_getbyhwaddr() and arp_ioctl() dev_getbyhwaddr() was called under RTNL. Rename it to dev_getbyhwaddr_rcu() and change all its caller to now use RCU locking instead of RTNL. Change arp_ioctl() to use RCU instead of RTNL locking.

This patch adds support for serial/USB-serial CAN adapters implementing the LAWICEL ASCII protocol for CAN frame transport over serial lines. The driver implements the SLCAN line discipline and is heavily based on the slip.c driver. Therefore the code style remains similar to slip.c to be able to apply changes of the SLIP driver to the SLCAN driver easily. For more details see the slcan Kconfig entry.

This patch adds a generic infrastructure for policy-based dequeueing of TX packets and provides two policies: * a simple FIFO policy (which is the default) and * a priority based policy (set via socket options). Both policies honour the tx_qlen sysctl for the maximum size of the write queue (can be overridden via socket options). The priority policy uses skb->priority internally to assign an u32 priority identifier, using the same ranking as SO_PRIORITY. The skb->priority field is set to 0 when the packet leaves DCCP. The priority is supplied as ancillary data using cmsg(3), the patch also provides the requisite parsing routines.

This patch helps prevent FW/SW semaphore collision from leading to link establishment failure. The collision might mess up the PHY registers so we reset the PHY. However there are SFI/KR areas in the PHY that are not reset with a Reset_AN so we need to change LMS to reset it.

We added some security checks in commit 57fe93b3 (filter: make sure filters dont read uninitialized memory) to close a potential leak of kernel information to user. This added a potential extra cost at run time, while we can perform a check of the filter itself, to make sure a malicious user doesnt try to abuse us. This patch adds a check_loads() function, whole unique purpose is to make this check, allocating a temporary array of mask. We scan the filter and propagate a bitmask information, telling us if a load M(K) is allowed because a previous store M(K) is guaranteed. (So that sk_run_filter() can possibly not read unitialized memory) Note: this can uncover application bug, denying a filter attach, previously allowed.

If Lancer chip does not have posted RX buffers, it posts an RX completion entry with the same frag_index as the last valid completion. The Error bit is also set. In BE, a flush completion is indicated with a zero value for num_rcvd in the completion. Such completions don't carry any data and are not processed. This patch refactors code to handle both cases with the same code.

The following commit causes the pgv->buffer may point to the memory returned by vmalloc(). And we can't use virt_to_page() for the vmalloc address. This patch introduces a new inline function pgv_to_page(), which calls vmalloc_to_page() for the vmalloc address, and virt_to_page() for the __get_free_pages address. We used to increase page pointer to get the next page at the next page address, after Neil's patch, it is wrong, as the physical address may be not continuous. This patch also fixes this issue. commit 0e3125c7 Author: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> Date: Tue Nov 16 10:26:47 2010 -0800 packet: Enhance AF_PACKET implementation to not require high order contiguous memory allocation (v4) Signed-off-by: Changli Gao <xiaosuo@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

commits 9f0f7272 (ipv4: AF_INET link address family) and cf7afbfe (rtnl: make link af-specific updates atomic) used incorrect __in_dev_get_rcu() in RTNL protected contexts, triggering PROVE_RCU warnings.

The first hunk of this patch makes sure that the driver checks for the appropriate preconditions before checking if EEE negotiation succeeded. More specifically the link needs to be full duplex for EEE to be enabled. The second and third hunks of this patch fix a bug where the eee advertisement register would be programmed with extra bits set. The fourth hunk of this patch makes sure the EEE capability flag is not set for 5718 A0 devices and that the device is not a serdes device. None of these modifications are strictly necessary. The driver / hardware still does the right thing. They are submitted primarily for correctness.
