      net: fix comment typo for __skb_alloc_pages() · bc6fc9fa
      Florian Fainelli authored
      The name of the function in the comment is __skb_alloc_page() while we
      are actually commenting __skb_alloc_pages(). Fix this typo and make it
      a valid kernel doc comment.

      gianfar: Fix reported number of sent bytes to BQL · 50ad076b
      Claudiu Manoil authored
      Fix the amount of sent bytes reported to BQL by reporting the
      number of bytes on wire in the xmit routine, and recording that
      value for each skb in order to be correctly confirmed on Tx
      confirmation cleanup.
      
      Reporting skb->len to BQL just before exiting xmit is not correct
      due to possible insertions of TOE block and alignment bytes in the
      skb->data, which are being stripped off by the controller before
      transmission on wire.  This led to mismatch of (incorrectly)
      reported bytes to BQL b/w xmit and Tx confirmation, resulting in
      Tx timeout firing, for the h/w tx timestamping acceleration case.
      
      There's no easy way to obtain the number of bytes on wire in the Tx
      confirmation routine, so skb->cb is used to convey that information
      from xmit to Tx confirmation, for now (as proposed by Eric). Revived
      the currently unused GFAR_CB() construct for that purpose.

      netconsole: avoid a crash with multiple sysfs writers · 7a163bfb
      Dan Aloni authored
      When my 'ifup eth' script was fired multiple times and ran concurrent on
      my laptop, for some obscure /etc scripting reason, it was revealed
      that the store_enabled() function in netconsole doesn't handle it nicely,
      as recorded by the Oops below (a syslog paste, but not mangled too much
      to prevent from discerning the traceback).
      
      On Linux 3.10.4, this patch seeks to remedy the problem, and it has been
      running stable on my laptop for a few days.

      bonding: remove bond_vlan_used() · 6f477d42
      Veaceslav Falico authored
      We're using it currently to verify if we have vlans before getting the tag
      from the skb we're about to send. It's useless because the vlan_get_tag()
      verifies if the skb has the tag (and returns an error if not), and we can
      receive tagged skbs only if we *already* have vlans.
      
      Plus, the current RCUed implementation is kind of useless anyway - the we
      can remove the last vlan in the moment we return from the function.
      
      So remove the only usage of it and the whole function.

      John W. Linville says:
      
      ====================
      Please accept this batch of updates intended for the 3.12 stream.
      
      For the mac80211 bits, Johannes says this:
      
      "This time I have various improvements all over the place: IBSS, mesh,
      testmode, AP client powersave handling, one of the rare rfkill patches
      and some code cleanup."
      
      Also for mac80211:
      
      "And I also have some more changes for -next, just a few small fixes and
      improvements, nothing really stands out."
      
      And for iwlwifi:
      
      "This time I have some powersave work (notably uAPSD support), CQM
      offloads, support for a new firmware API and various code cleanups."
      
      Regarding the Bluetooth bits, Gustavo says:
      
      "Patches to 3.12, here we have:
      
      * implementation of a proper tty_port for RFCOMM devices, this fixes some
      issues people were seeing lately in the kernel.
      * Add voice_setting option for SCO, it is used for SCO Codec selection
      * bugfixes, small improvements and clean ups"
      
      For the NFC bits, Samuel says:
      
      "With this one we have:
      
      - A few pn533 improvements and minor fixes. Testing our pn533 driver
        against Google's NCI stack triggered a few issues that we fixed now.
        We also added Tx fragmentation support to this driver.
      
      - More NFC secure element handling. We added a GET_SE netlink command
        for getting all the discovered secure elements, and we defined 2
        additional secure element netlink event (transaction and connectivity).
        We also fixed a couple of typos and copy-paste bugs from the secure
        element handling code.
      
      - Firmware download support for the pn544 driver. This chipset can enter a
        special mode where it's waiting for firmware blobs to replace the
        already flashed one. We now support that mode."
      
      With repect to the ath tree, Kalle says:
      
      "New features in ath10k are rx/tx checsumming in hw and survey scan
      implemented by Michal. Also he made fixes to different areas of the
      driver, most notable being fixing the case when using two streams and
      reducing the number of interface combinations to avoid firmware crashes.
      Bartosz did a clean related to how we handle SoC power save in PCI
      layer.
      
      For ath6kl Mohammed and Vasanth sent each a patch to fix two infrequent
      crashes."
      
      I also pulled the wireless tree into wireless-next to support a
      request from Johannes.  On top of all that, there are the usual
      sort of driver updates.  The mwifiex, brcmfmac, brcmsmac, ath9k,
      and rt2x00 drivers all get some attention, as does the bcma bus and
      a few other random bits here and there.

      net: neighbour: Remove CONFIG_ARPD · 3e25c65e
      Tim Gardner authored
      This config option is superfluous in that it only guards a call
      to neigh_app_ns(). Enabling CONFIG_ARPD by default has no
      change in behavior. There will now be call to __neigh_notify()
      for each ARP resolution, which has no impact unless there is a
      user space daemon waiting to receive the notification, i.e.,
      the case for which CONFIG_ARPD was designed anyways.

      virtio-net: Set RXCSUM feature if GUEST_CSUM is available · 4f49129b
      Thomas Huth authored
      If the VIRTIO_NET_F_GUEST_CSUM virtio feature is available, the guest
      does not have to calculate the checksums on all received packets. This
      is pretty much the same feature as RX checksum offloading on real
      network cards, so the virtio-net driver should report this by setting
      the NETIF_F_RXCSUM flag. When the user now runs "ethtool -k", he or she
      can see whether the virtio-net interface has to calculate RX checksums
      or not.

      ====================
      net: set addr_assign_type when inheriting a dev_addr
      
      Copying the dev_addr from a parent device is an operation
      common to a number of drivers. The addr_assign_type should
      be updated accordingly, either by reusing the value from
      the source device or explicitly indicating that the address
      is stolen by setting addr_assign_type to NET_ADDR_STOLEN.
      
      This patch set adds a helper copying both the dev_addr and
      the addr_assign_type, and use this helper in drivers which
      don't currently set the addr_assign_type. Using NET_ADDR_STOLEN
      might be more appropriate in some of these cases.  Please
      let me know, and I'll update the patch accordingly.
      
      Changes in v2:
       - assuming addr_len == ETH_ALEN to allow optimized memcpy
       - dropped the vt6656 patch due to addr_len being unset in that driver

      its addr_assign_type.

      net: etherdevice: add address inherit helper · 83a093b4
      Bjørn Mork authored
      Some etherdevices inherit their address from a parent or
      master device. The addr_assign_type should be updated along
      with the address in these cases.  Adding a helper function
      to simplify this.
