2008-08-07net/core: Allow certain receives on inactive slave.Joe Eykholt
Allow a packet_type that specifies the exact device to receive even on an inactive bonding slave devices. This is important for some L2 protocols such as LLDP and FCoE. This can eventually be used for the bonding special cases as well.

2008-08-07bonding: Don't destroy bonding master when removing slave via sysfsMoni Shoua
It is wrong to destroy a bonding master from a context that uses the sysfs of that bond. When last IPoIB slave is unenslaved from by writing to a sysfs file (for bond0 this would be /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/slaves) the driver tries to destroy the bond. This is wrong and can lead to a lockup or a crash. This fix lets the bonding master stay and relies on the user to destroy the bonding master if necessary (i.e. before module ib_ipoib is unloaded) This patch affects only bonds of IPoIB slaves. Ethernet slaves stay unaffected. Signed-off-by: Moni Shoua <monis@voltaire.com> Signed-off-by: Jay Vosburgh <fubar@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>
2008-08-07bonding: refactor mii monitorJay Vosburgh
Refactor mii monitor. As with the previous ARP monitor refactor, the motivation for this is to handle locking rationally (in this case, removing conditional locking) and generally clean up the code. This patch breaks up the monolithic mii monitor into two phases: an inspection phase, followed by an optional commit phase. The commit phase is the only portion that requires RTNL or makes changes to state, and is only called when inspection finds something to change.

2008-08-07[netdrvr] Drivers should not set IFF_* flag themselvesWang Chen
Some hardware set promisc when they are requested to set IFF_ALLMULTI flag. It's ok, but if drivers set IFF_PROMISC flag when they set promisc, it will broken upper layer handle for promisc and allmulti. In addition, drivers can use their own hardware programming to make it. So do not allow drivers to set IFF_* flags. This is a general driver fix, so I didn't split it to pieces and send to specific driver maintainers.

2008-08-07dm9000: Support MAC address setting through platform data.Laurent Pinchart
The dm9000 driver reads the chip's MAC address from the attached EEPROM. When no EEPROM is present, or when the MAC address is invalid, it falls back to reading the address from the chip. This patch lets platform code set the desired MAC address through platform data. Signed-off-by: Laurent Pinchart <laurentp@cse-semaphore.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>
2008-08-073c59x: use netdev_alloc_skbStephen Hemminger
Fix possible bug where end of receive buffer could be overwritten. The allocation needs to allow for the reserved space. This would only happen if device received packet greater than Ethernet standard MTU. Change this driver to use netdev_alloc_skb rather than setting skb->dev directly. For the initial allocation it doesn't need to be GFP_ATOMIC. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>
2008-08-07ethtool: Expand ethtool_cmd.speed to 32 bitsBrandon Philips
Introduce the speed_hi field to ethtool_cmd, using the reserved space, to expand the speed field to 2^32 Megabits/second. Making this field expansion now gives us plenty of time to fix up the user-space pieces that use SIOCETHTOOL before hardware faster than 64 Gb/s is available.

2008-08-07atl1: deal with hardware rx checksum bugJay Cliburn
The L1 hardware contains a bug that flags a fragmented IP packet as having an incorrect TCP/UDP checksum, even though the packet is perfectly valid and its checksum is correct. There's no way to distinguish between one of these good packets and a packet that actually contains a TCP/UDP checksum error, so all we can do is allow the packet to be handed up to the higher layers and let it be sorted out there. Add a comment describing this condition and remove the code that currently fails to handle what may or may not be a checksum error.

2008-08-05Re-introduce "[SCSI] extend the last_sector_bug flag to cover more sectors"Linus Torvalds
This re-introduces commit 2b142900784c6e38c8d39fa57d5f95ef08e735d8, which was reverted due to the regression it caused by commit fca082c9f1e11ec07efa8d2f9f13688521253f36. That regression was not root-caused by the original commit, it was just uncovered by it, and the real fix was done by Alan Stern in commit 580da34847488b404218d1d7f53b156f245f5555 ("Fix USB storage hang on command abort"). We can thus re-introduce the change that was confirmed by Alan Jenkins to be still required by his odd card reader.
