2009-07-06ipv6: correct return on ipv6_rcv() packet dropMark Smith
The routine ipv6_rcv() uses magic number 0 for a return when it drops a packet. This corresponds to NET_RX_SUCCESS, which is obviously incorrect. Correct this by using NET_RX_DROP instead. ps. It isn't exactly clear who the IPv6 maintainers are, apologies if I've missed any. Signed-off-by: Mark Smith <markzzzsmith@yahoo.com.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-07-06e1000: fix flow control thresholdsJesse Brandeburg
when testing the jumbo frames with pages patch, the stats would show rx_missed errors (dropped packets) even when connected to a link partner with flow control enabled. this indicates that for this MTU (9000) the flow control thresholds are not adjusting correctly. In fact, before this change, the FCRTH (xoff threshold) is 36864 when the fifo size is only 40000, with 9000 byte MTU. fix it so that we at least have room for one frame after we send the xoff.

2009-07-06e1000: implement jumbo receive with partial descriptorsJesse Brandeburg
This is code extremely similar to what is committed in e1000e already. e1000 will no longer request 32kB slab buffers to support jumbo frames on PCI/PCI-X adapters. This will significantly reduce the likelyhood of order:3 allocation failures. This new code adds support for using pages as receive buffers, and the driver will chain multiple pages together to build a jumbo frame for OS consumption. The hardware takes a power of two buffer size and will dump as much data as it can receive into 1 or more buffers. The benefits of applying this are 1) stop akpm's dissing :-) of this lame e1000 behavior [1] 2) more efficient memory allocation (half) when using jumbo frames, which will also allow for much better socket utilization with jumbos since the socket is charged for the full allocation of each receive buffer, regardless of how much is used. 3) this was a feature request by a customer 4) copybreak for small packets < 256 bytes still applies [1] http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/7/10/68 http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network/130986 Signed-off-by: Jesse Brandeburg <jesse.brandeburg@intel.com> CC: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2009-07-06e1000: allow ethtool coalesece to adjust interrupts per secondJesse Brandeburg
This patch allows on-the-fly adjustment of the interrupts per second generated by e1000 devices 82545/82546 (hardware support of ITR register is a requirement) adjust using this command: ethtool -C eth0 rx-usecs 10 where 10 is 10 microseconds per interrupt interval, so 10 = 100,000 interrupts per second, and 125 = 8000 interrupts per second. changes should be immediate. 1,3 are special values and indicate the automatic tuning mode to the driver, where 1 is 4000-90000 interrupts per second and 3 is 4000-20000 interrupts per second and is the driver default.

2009-07-05vxge: Disable fcs stripping.Sreenivasa Honnur
- Disable fcs stripping. The minimum frame size that can be received by the hardware is 57 Bytes. A 64 Byte Ethernet frame with the vlan tag and fcs stripped will result in a 56 Byte frame which will lock up the receive engine. The work around is to disable fcs stripping in the hardware which is done with a firmware upgrade. The fixes are - 1. Ensure that the correct firmware version is used. 2. Decrement the indicated packet length of the receive packet by 4 bytes (FCS length).

2009-07-05drivers/net/smsc911x.c: Fix resource size off by 1 errorJulia Lawall
The call resource_size(res) returns res->end - res->start + 1 and thus the second change is semantics-preserving. res_size is then used as the second argument of a call to request_mem_region, and the memory allocated by this call appears to be the same as what is released in the two calls to release_mem_region. So the size argument for those calls should be resource_size(size) as well. Alternatively, in the second call to release_mem_region, the second argument could be res_size, as that variable has already been initialized at the point of this call. The problem was found using the following semantic patch: (http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/) // <smpl> @@ struct resource *res; @@ - (res->end - res->start) + 1 + resource_size(res) @@ struct resource *res; @@ - res->end - res->start + BAD(resource_size(res)) // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> Signed-off-by: David S.

2009-07-05tun: Fix device unregister raceHerbert Xu
It is currently possible for an asynchronous device unregister to cause the same tun device to be unregistered twice. This is because the unregister in tun_chr_close only checks whether __tun_get(tfile) != NULL. This however has nothing to do with whether the device has already been unregistered. All it tells you is whether __tun_detach has been called. This patch fixes this by using the most obvious thing to test whether the device has been unregistered. It also moves __tun_detach outside of rtnl_unlock since nothing that it does requires that lock. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.
