Currently when we do a packet flood to the Ethernet port, the console reports error every time when a packet is dropped. This is too redundant and cost performance. Remove message for this type of event. Signed-off-by: Li Yang <leoli@freescale.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>

Jay Cliburn authored
The L1 hardware contains a bug that flags a fragmented IP packet as having an incorrect TCP/UDP checksum, even though the packet is perfectly valid and its checksum is correct. There's no way to distinguish between one of these good packets and a packet that actually contains a TCP/UDP checksum error, so all we can do is allow the packet to be handed up to the higher layers and let it be sorted out there. Add a comment describing this condition and remove the code that currently fails to handle what may or may not be a checksum error.

This re-introduces commit 2b142900, which was reverted due to the regression it caused by commit fca082c9. That regression was not root-caused by the original commit, it was just uncovered by it, and the real fix was done by Alan Stern in commit 580da348 ("Fix USB storage hang on command abort"). We can thus re-introduce the change that was confirmed by Alan Jenkins to be still required by his odd card reader.

Since 49ffcf8f ("sysctl: update sysctl_check_table") setting struct ctl_table.procname = NULL does no longer work as it used to the way the AX.25 code is expecting it to resulting in the AX.25 sysctl registration code to break if CONFIG_AX25_DAMA_SLAVE was not set as in some distribution kernels.

Stephen Hemminger authored
From: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Based upon original patch by Herbert Xu, which contained the following problem description: -------------------- When the forward delay is set to zero, we still delay the setting of the forwarding state by one or possibly two timers depending on whether STP is enabled. This could either turn out to be instantaneous, or horribly slow depending on the load of the machine. As there is nothing preventing us from enabling forwarding straight away, this patch eliminates this potential delay by executing the code directly if the forward delay is zero. The effect of this problem is that immediately after the carrier comes on a port, the bridge will drop all packets received from that port until it enters forwarding mode, thus causing unnecessary packet loss. Note that this patch doesn't fully remove the delay due to the link watcher. We should also check the carrier state when we are about to drop an incoming packet because the port is disabled. But that's for another patch. -------------------- This version of the fix takes a different approach, in that it just does the state change directly. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Okay, let's quieten the compiler (but I would prefer it if pprev, rb_link and rb_parent were meaningful in that case, rather than whatever's in them from descending the tree).

get_order() takes byte-sized input, not a page-granular one. Irrespective of this fix I'm inclined to believe that this doesn't work right anyway - bitmap_allocate_region() has an implicit assumption of 'pos' being suitable for 'order', which this function doesn't seem to enforce (and since it's being called with a byte-granular value there's no reason to believe that the callers would make sure device_addr is passed accordingly - it's also not documented that way).
