Automatically allows vlans to get NETIF_F_HIGHDMA if underlying device supports it. On 32bit arches (and more precisely if CONFIG_HIGHMEM is enabled), it can help to reduce cost of illegal_highdma() and __skb_linearize() calls. Tested on tg3 , bnx2, bonding, this worked very well. This is a generalization of a patch provided by Yi Zou & Jeff Kirsher. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The function to resize the Tx/Rx rings had the potential to dereference a NULL pointer and the code would attempt to resize the Tx ring even if the Rx ring allocation had failed. This would cause some confusion in the return code semantics. Fixed up to just unwind the allocations if any of them fail and return an error.

While investigating a bit, I found ip_fragment() slow path was taken because ip_append_data() provides following layout for a send(MTU + N*(MTU - 20)) syscall : - one skb with 1500 (mtu) bytes - N fragments of 1480 (mtu-20) bytes (before adding IP header) last fragment gets 17 bytes of trail data because of following bit: if (datalen == length + fraggap) alloclen += rt->dst.trailer_len; Then esp4 adds 16 bytes of data (while trailer_len is 17... hmm... another bug ?) In ip_fragment(), we notice last fragment is too big (1496 + 20) > mtu, so we take slow path, building another skb chain. In order to avoid taking slow path, we should correct ip_append_data() to make sure last fragment has real trail space, under mtu...

Net drivers in general have an issue where timers fired by mod_timer or work threads with schedule_work are running outside of the rtnl_lock. With no other lock protection these routines are vulnerable to races with driver unload or reset paths. The longer term solution to this might be a redesign with safer locks being taken in the driver to guarantee no reentrance, but for now a safe and effective fix is to take the rtnl_lock in these routines.

E1000 is using several timers that in a follow on patch will need to acquire the rtnl_lock in order to be safe. This patch moves the timer bodies into work queues which will allow the next patch to add rtnl_lock.

If the netdev->features is set with NETIF_F_HIGHDMA, we should set the corresponding netdev->vlan_features as well to allow VLAN netdev created on top of the real netdev to be able to also benefit from HIGHDMA on 32bit system, reducing the performance hit that is caused by __skb_linearize(), particularly for large send. This is fixed in this patch for all Intel e1000, e1000e, igb, ixgbe, and ixgbe drivers since this should be beneficial to all devices supported by these drivers.
