| * tg3: ethtool phys_id defaultStephen Hemminger2008-02-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When asked to blink LEDs the tg3 driver behaves when using: ethtool -p ethX The default value for data is zero, and other drivers interpret this as blink forever (or at least a really long time). The tg3 driver interprets this as blink once. All drivers should have the same behaviour.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Because of some board issues, we need to disable parallel detect on an HP blade. Without this patch, the link state can become stuck when it goes into parallel detect mode. Signed-off-by: Michael Chan <mchan@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

| * veth: fix dev refcount raceDaniel Lezcano2008-02-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When deleting the veth driver, veth_close calls netif_carrier_off for the two extremities of the network device. netif_carrier_off on the peer device will fire an event and hold a reference on the peer device. Just after, the peer is unregistered taking the rtnl_lock while the linkwatch_event is scheduled. If __linkwatch_run_queue does not occurs before the unregistering, unregister_netdevice will wait for the dev refcount to reach zero holding the rtnl_lock and linkwatch_event will wait for the rtnl_lock and hold the dev refcount.

It will reallocate the buffers in the GFP_DMA zone in that case. The patch by Michael Buesch has been ported to b43legacy. Thanks to Matti Viljanen for reporting this.
