Restores name table translation using a non-zero domain that is "out of scope", which was broken by an earlier commit (5d9c54c1). Comments have now been added to the name table translation routine to make it clear that there are actually three possible outcomes to a translation request (found/not found/deferred), rather than just two (found/not found). Note that a straightforward revert of the earlier commit is not possible, as other changes to the name table translation logic have occurred since the incorrect optimization was made.

Eliminates a block of comments that describe how routing table updates are to be handled. These comments no longer apply following the removal of TIPC's prototype multi-cluster support. Note that these changes are essentially cosmetic in nature, and have no impact on the actual operation of TIPC.

This "shortform" is actually longer than typing out what it is really trying to do, and just makes reading the code more difficult, so lets simply shoot it in the head. In the case of log.c - the comparison is on a u32, so we can drop the check for < 0 at the same time. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>

Adds a new check to TIPC's name table logic to reject any attempt to create a new name publication that is identical to an existing one. (Such an attempt will never happen under normal circumstances, but could arise if another network node malfunctions and issues a duplicate name publication message.)

Streamlines the logic that prevents an application from binding a reserved TIPC name type to a port by moving the check to the code that handles a socket bind() operation. This allows internal TIPC subsystems to bind a reserved name without having to set an atomic flag to gain permission to use such a name. (This simplification is now possible due to the elimination of support for TIPC's native API.)

Eliminates a check in the processing of TIPC messages arriving from off node that ensures the message is destined for this node, since this check duplicates an earlier check. (The check would be necessary if TIPC needed to be able to route incoming messages to another node, but the elimination of multi-cluster support means that this never happens and all incoming messages are consumed by the receiving node.) Note: This change involves the elimination of a single "if" statement with a large "then" clause; consequently, a significant number of lines end up getting re-indented. In addition, a simple message header access routine that is no longer referenced is eliminated. However, the only functional change is the elimination of the single check described above.

Utilizes the new "node signature" field in neighbor discovery messages to ensure that all links TIPC associates with a given <Z.C.N> network address belong to the same neighboring node. (Previously, TIPC could not tell if link setup requests arriving on different interfaces were from the same node or from two different nodes that has mistakenly been assigned the same network address.) The revised algorithm for detecting a duplicate node considers both the node signature and the network interface adddress specified in a request message when deciding how to respond to a link setup request. This prevents false alarms that might otherwise arise during normal network operation under the following scenarios: a) A neighboring node reboots. (The node's signature changes, but the network interface address remains unchanged.) b) A neighboring node's network interface is replaced. (The node's signature remains unchanged, but the network interface address changes.) c) A neighboring node is completely replaced. (The node's signature and network interface address both change.) The algorithm also handles cases in which a node reboots and re-establishes its links to TIPC (or begins re-establishing those links) before TIPC detects that it is using a new node signature. In such cases of "delayed rediscovery" TIPC simply accepts the new signature without disrupting communication that is already underway over the links.

Adds support for the new "node signature" in neighbor discovery messages, which is a 16 bit identifier chosen randomly when TIPC is initialized. This field makes it possible for nodes receiving a neighbor discovery message to detect if multiple neighboring nodes are using the same network address (i.e. <Z.C.N>), even when the messages are arriving on different interfaces. This first phase of node signature support creates the signature, incorporates it into outgoing neighbor discovery messages, and tracks the signature used by valid neighbors. An upcoming patch builds on this foundation to implement the improved duplicate neighbor detection checking.

chan->chan_num is 0..CPDMA_MAX_CHANNELS-1 for tx channels and CPDMA_MAX_CHANNELS..2*CPDMA_MAX_CHANNELS-1 for rx channels. However, the rx and tx teardown registers expect zero based channel numbering. Since the upper bits of the registers are reserved, the teardown also worked before, this patch is cleanup only.

This patch seeks to clean up the timer related code. It begins by moving one-time timer setup code from tg3_open() to tg3_init_one(). It then creates a function that encapsulates the code needed to start the timer. A tg3_timer_stop() function was added for parity. Finally, this patch moves all the timer functions to a more suitable location. Signed-off-by: Matt Carlson <mcarlson@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

If an error happens in the tx completion thread, tg3_reset_task will be scheduled and TX_RECOVERY_PENDING will be set. The TX_RECOVERY_PENDING flag causes tg3_poll[_msix] to return early before doing much of its work. Tg3_reset_task() gets canceled when the configuration of the device is changing, which always results in a chip reset. When this happens, the TX_RECOVERY_PENDING flag may be left set, which would unnecessarily hinder tg3_poll from doing work. This patch fixes the problem.

tg3_phy_copper_begin() has code that configures the link advertisements through the use of the link_config.speed and link_config.duplex members.

The tg3 driver tried to detect link changes by comparing the tg3 local active_speed member with SPEED_UNKNOWN (or formerly SPEED_INVALID). This check is not correct, since phylib will never set its speed member to either of these two values. The code only appeared to work because tg3 initializes active_speed to SPEED_INVALID during tg3_init_one. This patch introduces a new "old_link" tg3 member and then compares the phy_device's link member against it to detect link state changes.

We have a very simple way of allocating buffer table entries to queues, which is just to take the next one available. The extra channels are the highest numbered channels but they need to be allocated the lowest entries so that the traffic channels can be allocated new entries without any collisions.

efx_vfdi_set_status_page() validates the peer page count by calculating the size of a request containing that many addresses and comparing that with the maximum valid request size (4KB). The calculation involves a multiplication that may overflow on a 32-bit system. We use kcalloc() to allocate memory to store the addresses; that also does a multiplication and it does check for integer overflow, so any values larger than 0x1fffffff will be rejected. However, values in the range [0x1fffffffc, 0x1fffffff] pass boh tests and result in an attempt to allocate nearly 4GB on the heap. This should be rejected rather quickly as it's obviously impossible on a 32-bit system, and indeed the maximum possible heap allocation is 32MB. Still, let's make absolutely sure by fixing the initial validation. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com>

This requirement was meant to be implied in the name 'status page'. One out-of-tree VF driver allocates a buffer using the structure size and not a full page - hence the current odd specification - but in practice that allocation will be padded and aligned to at least 4KB. Therefore, we can specify this and have the option to extend the structure up to 4KB without worrying about VF drivers using odd-shaped buffers.

Piergiorgio Beruto expressed the need to fetch size of first datagram in queue for AF_UNIX sockets and suggested a patch against SIOCINQ ioctl. I suggested instead to implement MSG_TRUNC support as a recv() input flag, as already done for RAW, UDP & NETLINK sockets. len = recv(fd, &byte, 1, MSG_PEEK | MSG_TRUNC); MSG_TRUNC asks recv() to return the real length of the packet, even when is was longer than the passed buffer. There is risk that a userland application used MSG_TRUNC by accident (since it had no effect on af_unix sockets) and this might break after this patch.
