      [PATCH] loop: remove the bio remapping capability · a34c0ae9
      Andrew Morton authored
      This patch removes the loop feature wherein we remap BIOs for block-backed
      loop.  So file-backed and block-backed loop are handled identically.
      
      It cleans up the code a lot and fixes the low-on-memory lockups which
      block-backed loop currently suffers.
      
      What we lose is the journalling ordering guarantees which
      exts-on-loop-on-blockdev had.  But dm-crypt provides that.

      [PATCH] ppc64: iseries IRQ fix · 749e32b6
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au>
      
      This patch lets 2.6.3-rc4 build and boot on an PPC64 iSeries box (at least
      for my configuration).  The veth.o bit in the networking Makefile got there
      by accident and should be removed anyway ...
      
      There is more to make it work properly (note the "Temporary hack"), but
      this gets us closer.

      [PATCH] ppc64: fix saved_command_line/cmd_line lengths · 06c3f1d6
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org>
      
      cmd_line was twice the size of saved_command_line but we did a strcpy from
      the larger into the smaller.  Create COMMAND_LINE_SIZE and use it.

      [PATCH] Fix for PPP activ/passiv filter · cf4389cb
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Karsten Keil <kkeil@suse.de>
      
      I found a bug in the PPPIOCSPASS PPPIOCSACTIVE IOCTL implementation in
      kernel 2.5/2.6.
      
      The current pppd code use a empty filter (uprog.len=0) to detach the filter
      in the kernel, but this code was removed in 2.5.71 while fixing a compiler
      warning.
      
      Here the new patch, also with better limit checking.
      
      The second patch check for flen == 0 in the filter check too, since later
      in this code a filter[flen - 1] access is done, which is not so funny with
      flen 0.  Maybe it's not really needed anymore, since with the first patch
      it would not longer called with flen=0.
      
      paulus says:
      
          It looks correct.  Previously we had (and in 2.4 we still have)
      
              if (uprog.len > 0 && uprog.len < 65536) {
      		...
      
          which gave warnings since uprog.len is unsigned short.  So someone
          decided that both parts of the condition were redundant.

      [PATCH] 2.6.3 pcnet32.c transmit hang fix · 5f0ccf26
      Don Fry authored
      The transmit routine will stop interrupting and hang, causing the
      tx_timeout routine to attempt to restart the device when the 32-bit
      cur_tx counter wraps below dirty_tx.  If the device had called
      netif_stop_queue it will never call netif_wake_queue in the interrupt
      routine (at least on an IA32 system) due to 32-bit wrap around arithmetic.
      
      On my IA32 system 'dirty_tx > lp->cur_tx - TX_RING_SIZE + 2' would
      always evaluate to false when dirty and cur_tx were less than 15,
      preventing netif_wake_queue to be called.
      
      By starting dirty_tx and cur_tx at 0xfffffff0 (to reduce test time) I
      found that once cur_tx wrapped to zero, that transmitted buffers would
      never be unmapped or freed because 'while (dirty_tx < lp->cur_tx) {'
      was not true.  cur_tx would keep incrementing (in start_xmit) but dirty_tx
      would not (in pcnet32_interrupt), thus leaking skb's and pci map entries.
      On PPC machines, the system would quickly run out of pci maps.
      
      Fix tested on PPC and IA32.

      [PATCH] Add VLAN support in ALB mode · 18d45937
      Shmulik Hen authored
      Add capability to tag self generated ARP packets that are required
      for receive load balancing in bonding. VLAN Id's are saved and used
      each time a new IP connection is established since 8021q currently
      supports IP binding.
      
      Update module version and comment blocks.

      [PATCH] Add VLAN support in TLB mode · 7d585d7e
      Shmulik Hen authored
      Add capability to tag self generated learning packets that are
      required to speed up port selection in the switch after a fail
      over in bonding since some switches will only update their MAC
      tables from tagged packets when VLAN support is turned on. All
      VLAN Id's that have been configured on top of the bond interface
      will be used in cyclic order.

      [PATCH] Add support for HW accel. slaves · 7e299113
      Shmulik Hen authored
      Now that David Miller accepted the first half of this set into 2.6,
      I'm resending the last half to you for inclusion in netdev-2.6.
      
      Tested against latest netdev-2.6. Summary:
      
      Change the bond interface to publish full VLAN hardware acceleration
      offloading capabilities, and add capability in all xmit functions to
      take special care for VLAN HW accel. tagged skb's that are going out
      through a slave that is not offloading capable.
      
      Add a mechanism to collect and save the VLAN Id's that have been
      added on top of a bond interface, and propagate the register/add/kill
      operations to the slaves.
      
      Add blocking mechanism to prevent adding VLAN interfaces on top of a
      bond that contains VLAN challenged slaves and to prevent adding VLAN
      challenged slaves to a bond that already has VLAN interfaces on top
      of it.
      
      Add a section about VLAN to Documentation/networking/bonding.txt and
      also correct some minor spelling/grammer errors.

      [PATCH] 2.6.3 pcnet32.c bus master arbitration failure fix · f992adf3
      Don Fry authored
      Here is the first of several individual patches to 2.6.3 for the pcnet32
      driver.
      
      The driver did not properly serialize accesses to chip registers, resulting
      in reading/writing the wrong register.  This patch eliminates this problem
      and gets rid of the cause of the symptom of 'bus master arbitration failure'.
      
      It was easier to use generic_mii_ioctl than modify the current pcnet32_ioctl
      routine with the necessary locks.  This has been re-tested on an IA32 system.
