* [PATCH] bonding: Fix link monitor capability check (was skge: set mac ↵nsxfreddy@gmail.com2005-09-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | address oops with bonding) Fix bond_enslave link monitoring warning to check use_carrier status and ethtool_ops in addition to do_ioctl. This version checks ethtool_ops as well as do_ioctl, and also uses the per-bond params.use_carrier instead of the global use_carrier. Signed-off-by: Jason R.

* [BOND]: Fix bond_init() error path handling.Florin Malita2005-09-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | From: Florin Malita <fmalita@gmail.com> bond_init() is not releasing rtnl_sem after register_netdevice() and before calling unregister_netdevice() (from bond_free_all()) in the exception path. As the device registration is not completed (dev->reg_state == NETREG_REGISTERING), the call to unregister_netdevice() triggers BUG_ON(dev->reg_state != NETREG_REGISTERED).

* [PATCH] bonding: plug reference count leakJay Vosburgh2005-09-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | Bonding leaks route structures when the ARP monitor is configured to send probes over VLANs. Originally reported by Ian Abel <ian.abel@mxtelecom.com>; his original fix was modified by Jay Vosburgh to correct coding style and to close a leak it missed.

* [NET]: Kill skb->real_devDavid S. Miller2005-08-29
| | | | | | | | | | | Bonding just wants the device before the skb_bond() decapsulation occurs, so simply pass that original device into packet_type->func() as an argument. It remains to be seen whether we can use this same exact thing to get rid of skb->input_dev as well. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [PATCH] bonding: inherit zero-copy flags of slavesArthur Kepner2005-08-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This change allows a bonding device to inherit the "zero-copy" features of its slave devices. It was inspired by a couple of previous postings on this topic: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=bonding-devel&m=111924607327794&w=2 http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=bonding-devel&m=111925242706297&w=2 and it's largely a combination of the patches that appear in those emails.

* [PATCH] bonding: ALB -- allow slave to use bond's MAC address if its own MAC ↵John W. Linville2005-07-31
| | | | | | | | | | | address conflicts In ALB mode, allow new slave to use bond's MAC address if the new slave's MAC address is being used within the bond and no other slave is using the bond's MAC address.

* bonding: xor/802.3ad improved slave hashJay Vosburgh2005-06-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add support for alternate slave selection algorithms to bonding balance-xor and 802.3ad modes. Default mode (what we have now: xor of MAC addresses) is "layer2", new choice is "layer3+4", using IP and port information for hashing to select peer. Originally submitted by Jason Gabler for balance-xor mode; modified by Jay Vosburgh to additionally support 802.3ad mode. Jason's original comment is as follows: The attached patch to the Linux Etherchannel Bonding driver modifies the driver's "balance-xor" mode as follows: - alternate hashing policy support for mode 2 * Added kernel parameter "xmit_policy" to allow the specification of different hashing policies for mode 2. The original mode 2 policy is the default, now found in xmit_hash_policy_layer2(). * Added xmit_hash_policy_layer34() This patch was inspired by hashing policies implemented by Cisco, Foundry and IBM, which are explained in Foundry documentation found at: http://www.foundrynet.com/services/documentation/sribcg/Trunking.html#112750 Signed-off-by: Jason Gabler <jygabler@lbl.gov> Signed-off-by: Jay Vosburgh <fubar@us.ibm.com>

* Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds2005-04-16
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
