* b44: Fix wedge when using netconsole.David S. Miller2009-11-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fixes kernel bugzilla #14691 Due to the way netpoll works, it is perfectly legal to see NAPI already scheduled when new device events are pending in b44_interrupt(). So logging a message about it is wrong and in fact harmful. Based upon a patch by Andreas Mohr. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

* ep93xx-eth: check for zero MAC address on probe, not on device openFlorian Fainelli2009-11-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | If we happen to have registered the driver without passing a MAC address, we will print a zero MAC address and register the interface with this invalid address, this is confusin. This patch moves the checking of a valid ethernet address and the generation of a random one down from the open function to the probe function.

* NET: smc91x: Fix irq flagsRussell King - ARM Linux2009-11-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | smc91x.h defines SMC_IRQ_FLAGS to be -1 when it wants the interrupt flags to be taken from the resource structure. However, d280ead changed this to checking for non-zero resource flags. Unfortunately, this means that on some platforms, we end up passing '-1' to request_irq rather than the desired result. Combine the two conditions into one so that the IRQ flags are taken from the resource if either SMC_IRQ_FLAGS is -1 or the resource flags specify an interrupt trigger. This restores network on at least the Versatile platform. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk> Acked-by: Eric Miao <eric.y.miao@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* r8169: restore mac addr in rtl8169_remove_one and rtl_shutdownIvan Vecera2009-11-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The newer chipsets (all PCI-E) are known that they need full power cycle (AC or battery removal) to reset MAC address to a hardwired one. Previous patch to address this problem loads the original MAC address from EEPROM. But it brought other problem for which it is necessary to introduce a new module parameter. However, it might suffice to restore the initial MAC address before shutdown/reboot/kexec and when removing the module. Signed-off-by: Ivan Vecera <ivecera@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | o Along with netdev->perm_addr, mac address will be maintained in device private structure. o Device limitation: We need to set mac address when ever interface comes up. In ALB/TAL mode, bonding driver calls set_mac for all slave with bond mac address. But bonding driver set netdev->dev_addr field to its original value, after enslaving interfaces. When ever active slave changes, it swap dev_addr of inactive slave with active. Yet it doesn't notify driver about change in netdev->dev_addr. As netxen driver need to set mac addr when ever interface comes up, it can't rely on netdev->dev_addr field. Specially in case of bonding mode ALB/TLB.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | PPP does not correctly call pskb_may_pull() on all necessary receive paths before reading the PPP protocol, thus causing PPP to report seemingly random 'unsupported protocols' and eventually trigger BUG_ON(skb->len < skb->data_len) in skb_pull_rcsum() when receiving multilink protocol in non-linear skbs. ppp_receive_nonmp_frame() does not call pskb_may_pull() before reading the protocol number. For the non-mp receive path this is not a problem, as this check is done in ppp_receive_frame(). For the mp receive path, ppp_mp_reconstruct() usually copies the data into a new linear skb. However, in the case where the frame is made up of a single mp fragment, the mp header is pulled and the existing skb used. This skb was then passed to ppp_receive_nonmp_frame() without checking if the encapsulated protocol header could safely be read.

| * | r8169: Fix receive buffer length when MTU is between 1515 and 1536Raimonds Cicans2009-11-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In r8169 driver MTU is used to calculate receive buffer size. Receive buffer size is used to configure hardware incoming packet filter. For jumbo frames: Receive buffer size = Max frame size = MTU + 14 (ethernet header) + 4 (vlan header) + 4 (ethernet checksum) = MTU + 22 Bug: driver for all MTU up to 1536 use receive buffer size 1536 As you can see from formula, this mean all IP packets > 1536 - 22 (for vlan tagged, 1536 - 18 for not tagged) are dropped by hardware filter. Example: host_good> ifconfig eth0 mtu 1536 host_r8169> ifconfig eth0 mtu 1536 host_good> ping host_r8169 Ok host_good> ping -s 1500 host_r8169 Fail host_good> ifconfig eth0 mtu 7000 host_r8169> ifconfig eth0 mtu 7000 host_good> ping -s 1500 host_r8169 Ok Bonus: got rid of magic number 8 Signed-off-by: Raimonds Cicans <ray@apollo.lv> Signed-off-by: David S.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds the missing "get_xstats_size" callback for the netlink interface, which is required if "fill_xstats" is used, as pointed out by Patrick McHardy.

| * | can: Fix driver Kconfig structureOliver Hartkopp2009-11-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In 2.6.32-rc the new EMS USB CAN driver was contributed and added the Kconfig entry right behind an entry of the same *vendor*. This teared the SJA1000 based driver selection into pieces. This fix cleans up the 2.6.32-rc Kconfig files for the CAN drivers and moves the SJA1000 and USB Kconfig portions into the belonging directories. As there are many new CAN drivers in the queue getting this cleanup into 2.6.32-rc would massively reduce the problems for the upcoming drivers.

| * | s2io: fixing a ethtool test that is brokenBreno Leitao2009-11-13
| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Due commit 4b77b0a2ba27d64f58f16d8d4d48d8319dda36ff, it is not more possible to pci_restore_state() more than once without calling pci_save_state() in the middle. Actually running a ethtool test on s2io makes the card inactive, and it needs to unload/reload the module to fix. This patch just save the state just after it restore in order to keep the old behaviour Signed-off-by: Breno Leitao <leitao@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

| * iwlwifi: Use RTS/CTS as the preferred protection mechanism for 6000 seriesWey-Yi Guy2009-11-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When 802.11g was introduced, we had RTS/CTS and CTS-to-Self protection mechanisms. In an HT Beacon, HT stations use the "Operating Mode" field in the HT Information Element to determine whether or not to use protection. The Operating Mode field has 4 possible settings: 0-3: Mode 0: If all stations in the BSS are 20/40 MHz HT capable, or if the BSS is 20/40 MHz capable, or if all stations in the BSS are 20 MHz HT stations in a 20 MHz BSS Mode 1: used if there are non-HT stations or APs using the primary or secondary channels Mode 2: if only HT stations are associated in the BSS and at least one 20 MHz HT station is associated. Mode 3: used if one or more non-HT stations are associated in the BSS. When in operating modes 1 or 3, and the Use_Protection field is 1 in the Beacon's ERP IE, all HT transmissions must be protected using RTS/CTS or CTS-to-Self. By default, CTS-to-self is the preferred protection mechanism for less overhead and higher throughput; but using the full RTS/CTS will better protect the inner exchange from interference, especially in highly-congested environment. For 6000 series WIFI NIC, RTS/CTS protection mechanism is the recommended choice for HT traffic based on the HW design.
