The tg3 driver is written so that VLAN tagged packets can be accepted, even if CONFIG_VLAN_8021Q or CONFIG_VLAN_8021Q_MODULE is not defined. (Think raw interfaces.) If the device has ASF support enabled, the firmware requires the driver to enable VLAN tag stripping. If VLAN tagging is not explicitly supported by the kernel and ASF is enabled, the driver will have to reinject the VLAN tag back into the packet stream. Signed-off-by:

On a PCIX bus, the 5701 has a bug which requires the driver to double copy all rx packets. The rx code uses the rx_offset device member as a flag to determine if this workaround should take effect. The following patch will modify the rx_offset member such that this test will become less clear. The patch starts by integrating the workaround check into the packet length check. It rounds out the implementation by relaxing the workaround restrictions if the platform has efficient unaligned accesses. Signed-off-by:

With latest CONFIG_PROVE_RCU stuff, I felt more comfortable to make this work. sk->sk_dst_cache is currently protected by a rwlock (sk_dst_lock) This rwlock is readlocked for a very small amount of time, and dst entries are already freed after RCU grace period. This calls for RCU again :) This patch converts sk_dst_lock to a spinlock, and use RCU for readers. __sk_dst_get() is supposed to be called with rcu_read_lock() or if socket locked by user, so use appropriate rcu_dereference_check() condition (rcu_read_lock_held() || sock_owned_by_user(sk)) This patch avoids two atomic ops per tx packet on UDP connected sockets, for example, and permits sk_dst_lock to be much less dirtied.

If a packet has the skb_shared_tx->hardware flag set the device is instructed to generate a TX timestamp and write it back to memory after the frame is transmitted. During the clean_tx_ring operation the timestamp will be extracted and copied into the skb_shared_hwtstamps struct of the skb. TX timestamping is enabled by setting the tx_type to something else than HWTSTAMP_TX_OFF with the SIOCSHWTSTAMP ioctl command. It is only supported by eTSEC devices. Signed-off-by:

The device is configured to insert hardware timestamps into all received packets. The RX timestamps are extracted from the padding alingment bytes during the clean_rx_ring operation and copied into the skb_shared_hwtstamps struct of the skb. This extraction only happens if the rx_filter was set to something else than HWTSTAMP_FILTER_NONE with the SIOCSHWTSTAMP ioctl command. Hardware timestamping is only supported for eTSEC devices. To indicate device support the new FSL_GIANFAR_DEV_HAS_TIMER flag was introduced. Signed-off-by:

This patch adds support for using the LL TEMAC Ethernet driver on non-Virtex 5 platforms by adding support for accessing the Soft DMA registers as if they were memory mapped instead of solely through the DCR's (available on the Virtex 5). The patch also updates the driver so that it runs on the MicroBlaze. The changes were tested on the PowerPC 440, PowerPC 405, and the MicroBlaze platforms. Signed-off-by:

Back in commit 04a0551c ("loopback: Drop obsolete ip_summed setting") we stopped setting CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY in the loopback xmit. This is because such a setting was a lie since it implies that the checksum field of the packet is properly filled in. Instead what happens normally is that CHECKSUM_PARTIAL is set and skb->csum is calculated as needed. But this was only happening for TCP data packets (via the skb->ip_summed assignment done in tcp_sendmsg()). It doesn't happen for non-data packets like ACKs etc. Fix this by setting skb->ip_summed in the common non-data packet constructor. It already is setting skb->csum to zero. But this reminds us that we still have things like ip_output.c's ip_dev_loopback_xmit() which sets skb->ip_summed to the value CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY, which Herbert's patch teaches us is not valid. So we'll have to address that at some point too. Signed-off-by:

radix_tree_tag_get() is not safe to use concurrently with radix_tree_tag_set() or radix_tree_tag_clear(). The problem is that the double tag_get() in radix_tree_tag_get(): if (!tag_get(node, tag, offset)) saw_unset_tag = 1; if (height == 1) { int ret = tag_get(node, tag, offset); may see the value change due to the action of set/clear. RCU is no protection against this as no pointers are being changed, no nodes are being replaced according to a COW protocol - set/clear alter the node directly. The documentation in linux/radix-tree.h, however, says that radix_tree_tag_get() is an exception to the rule that "any function modifying the tree or tags (...) must exclude other modifications, and exclude any functions reading the tree". The problem is that the next statement in radix_tree_tag_get() checks that the tag doesn't vary over time: BUG_ON(ret && saw_unset_tag); This has been seen happening in FS-Cache: https://www.redhat.com/archives/linux-cachefs/2010-April/msg00013.html To this end, remove the BUG_ON() from radix_tree_tag_get() and note in various comments that the value of the tag may change whilst the RCU read lock is held, and thus that the return value of radix_tree_tag_get() may not be relied upon unless radix_tree_tag_set/clear() and radix_tree_delete() are excluded from running concurrently with it.

As suggested by Linus, fix up kmem_ptr_validate() to handle non-kernel pointers more graciously.

The default size of the vmalloc area is currently 1 GB. The memory resource controller uses about 10 MB of vmalloc space per gigabyte of memory. That turns a system with more than ~100 GB memory unbootable with the default vmalloc size. It costs us nothing to increase the default size to some more adequate value, e.g. 128 GB. Signed-off-by: -

commit 6a985c61 ([S390] s390: use change recording override for kernel mapping) deactivated the change bit recording for the kernel mapping to improve the performance. This works most of the time, but there are cases (e.g. kernel runs in home space, futex atomic compare xcmg) where we modify user memory with the kernel mapping instead of the user mapping. Instead of fixing these cases, this patch just deactivates change bit override to avoid future problems with other kernel code that might use the kernel mapping for user memory.

If a machine check interrupts the io interrupt handler on one of the instructions between io_return and io_leave the critical section cleanup code will move the return psw to io_work_loop. By doing that the switch from the asynchronous interrupt stack to the process stack is skipped. If e.g. TIF_NEED_RESCHED is set things break because the scheduler is called with the asynchronous interrupts stack. Moving the psw back to io_return instead fixes the problem. Signed-off-by: -

When CFQ dispatches requests forcefully due to a barrier or changing iosched, it runs through all cfqq's dispatching requests and then expires each queue. However, it does not activate a cfqq before flushing its IOs resulting in using stale values for computing slice_used. This patch fixes it by calling activate queue before flushing reuqests from each queue. This is useful mostly for barrier requests because when the iosched is changing it really doesnt matter if we have incorrect accounting since we're going to break down all structures anyway. We also now expire the current timeslice before moving on with the dispatch to accurately account slice used for that cfqq.
