Convert code away from ->read_proc/->write_proc interfaces. Switch to proc_create()/proc_create_data() which make addition of proc entries reliable wrt NULL ->proc_fops, NULL ->data and so on.

If a qeth device is set online, several initialisation steps are performed. If a failure in one of these steps occurs, the qeth device is reset into DOWN state. If due to the failure a qeth recovery is scheduled and started in another thread, this might cause all kinds of conflicts, even a kernel panic. The patch forbids scheduling of a qeth recovery while online processing is performed till the card is in state SOFTSETUP.

Provide MAC-specific function pointer to determine the LAN ID (PCI func). The LAN ID is used internally by the driver to determine which h/w lock to use to protect accessing the PHY on ESB2 as well as help to determine the alternate MAC address on some parts.

Similar to 82571/2/3 parts that already do this, if ESB2/80003es2lan parts have an alternate MAC address provided in the EEPROM use it instead of the default MAC address. This patch makes the the actual code that does this generic so that it can be better used by both MAC families.

To prevent the CAN drivers to operate on invalid socketbuffers the skbs are now checked and silently dropped at the xmit-function consistently. Also the netdev stats are consistently using the CAN data length code (dlc) for [rx|tx]_bytes now.

This patch adds the kernel portions needed to implement RFC 5082 Generalized TTL Security Mechanism (GTSM). It is a lightweight security measure against forged packets causing DoS attacks (for BGP). This is already implemented the same way in BSD kernels. For the necessary Quagga patch http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/quagga/dev/17389 Description from Cisco http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios/12_3t/12_3t7/feature/guide/gt_btsh.html It does add one byte to each socket structure, but I did a little rearrangement to reuse a hole (on 64 bit), but it does grow the structure on 32 bit This should be documented on ip(4) man page and the Glibc in.h file also needs update. IPV6_MINHOPLIMIT should also be added (although BSD doesn't support that). Only TCP is supported, but could also be added to UDP, DCCP, SCTP if desired.

This patch adds documentation for the MSCAN OF device bindings for the MPC512x and moves the one for the MPC5200 to the new common file "Documentation/powerpc/dts-bindings/fsl/can.txt".

Wolfgang Grandegger authored
The main differences compared to the MSCAN on the MPC5200 are: - More flexibility in choosing the CAN source clock and frequency: Three different clock sources can be selected: "ip", "ref" or "sys". For the latter two, a clock divider can be defined as well. If the clock source is not specified by the device tree, we first try to find an optimal CAN source clock based on the system clock. If that is not possible, the reference clock will be used. - The behavior of bus-off recovery is configurable: To comply with the usual handling of Socket-CAN bus-off recovery, "recovery on request" is selected (instead of automatic recovery). Note that only MPC5121 Rev. 2 and later is supported. Signed-off-by: Wolfgang Grandegger <wg@denx.de> Reviewed-by: Wolfram Sang <w.sang@pengutronix.de> Signed-off-by: David S.

The start_xmit function of the MSCAN Driver did return improperly if the CAN dlc check failed (skb not freed and invalid return code). This patch adds a proper check of the frame lenght and data size and returns now correctly. The invalid skb packets are dropped silently as suggested by David Miller in the thread "[RFC] ndo_validate_skb: Let the netdev check a valid skb content" on the netdev mailing list. Furthermore, a typo has been fixed. Signed-off-by: Wolfgang Grandegger <wg@denx.de> Reviewed-by: Wolfram Sang <w.sang@pengutronix.de> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

General cleanup of the ep93xx_eth driver. 1) Use pr_fmt() to prefix the module name and __func__ to the error messages. 2) <linux/io.h> instead of <asm/io.h> 3) <mach/hardware.h> instead of <mach/ep93xx-regs.h> and <mach/platform.h> 4) Move the ep93xx_mdio_read (and ep93xx_mdio_write) function to eliminate the function prototype. 5) Change all the printk(<level> messages to pr_<level> and remove the __func__ argument. 6) Use platform_get_{resource/irq} to get the platform resources and add an error check. 7) Use resource_size() for request_mem_region() and ioremap(). 8) Use %pM to print the MAC address at the end of the probe. 9) Use dev->dev_addr not data->dev_addr for the MAC argument because a random address could be used if the platform does not supply one. The message at the end of the probe is left as a printk since it displays cleaner without the function name that would be displayed with pr_info().
