2007-03-20[IrDA]: Delay needed when uploading firmware chunksNigel Williams
With 42101001.sb firmwares, we need a 10 ms delay between firmware chunks upload on irda-usb. Patch from Nigel Williams <nigelw@elder-gods.net> Signed-off-by: Samuel Ortiz <samuel@sortiz.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2007-03-15natsemi: Avoid IntrStatus lossage if RX state machine resets.broonie@sirena.org.uk
This patch fixes the poll routine for the natsemi driver so that if the driver detects an RX state machine lockup then no interrupts will be lost while the driver recovers from that. Signed-Off-By: Mark Brown <broonie@sirena.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
2007-03-15natsemi: Fix NAPI for interrupt sharingbroonie@sirena.org.uk
The interrupt status register for the natsemi chips is clear on read and was read unconditionally from both the interrupt and from the NAPI poll routine, meaning that if the interrupt service routine was called (for example, due to a shared interrupt) while a NAPI poll was scheduled interrupts could be missed. This patch fixes that by ensuring that the interrupt status register is only read by the interrupt handler when interrupts are enabled from the chip. It also reverts a workaround for this problem from the netpoll hook and improves the trace for interrupt events. Thanks to Sergei Shtylyov <sshtylyov@ru.mvista.com> for spotting the issue, Mark Huth <mhuth@mvista.com> for a simpler method and Simon Blake <simon@citylink.co.nz> for testing resources.

2007-03-15natsemi: Consistently use interrupt enable/disable functionsbroonie@sirena.org.uk
The natsemi drivers include functions for enabling and disabling interrupts from the chip but these are not used in all code paths. This patch changes the code paths that touch the interrupt enable register to use the functions. In all cases this adds an extra PCI read to post the operation but since none of these are in fast paths this shouldn't be too much of a problem.

2007-03-15skge: set mac address bonding fixStephen Hemminger
When bonding does fail over it calls set_mac_address. When this happens as the result of another port going down, the phy_mutex that is common to both ports is held, so it deadlocks. Setting the address doesn't need to do anything that needs the phy_mutex, it already has the RTNL to protect against other admin actions. This change just disables the receiver to avoid any hardware confusion while address is changing.

2007-03-06bonding: Improve IGMP join processingJay Vosburgh
In active-backup mode, the current bonding code duplicates IGMP traffic to all slaves, so that switches are up to date in case of a failover from an active to a backup interface. If bonding then fails back to the original active interface, it is likely that the "active slave" switch's IGMP forwarding for the port will be out of date until some event occurs to refresh the switch (e.g., a membership query). This patch alters the behavior of bonding to no longer flood IGMP to all ports, and to issue IGMP JOINs to the newly active port at the time of a failover. This insures that switches are kept up to date for all cases. "GOELLESCH Niels" <niels.goellesch@eurocontrol.int> originally reported this problem, and included a patch. His original patch was modified by Jay Vosburgh to additionally remove the existing IGMP flood behavior, use RCU, streamline code paths, fix trailing white space, and adjust for style.

2007-03-06bonding: fix double dev_add_packJay Vosburgh
Bonding can erroneously register the same packet_type to receive ARPs (for use by ARP validation): once at device open time, and once via sysfs. Since sysfs can change the validate setting (and thus register or unregister) at any time, a flag is needed to synchronize with device open in order to avoid double registrations, and the simplest place is within the packet_type structure itself. Double unregister is not an issue. Bug reported by Ulrich Oelmann <ulrich.oelmann@web.de>. Signed-off-by: Jay Vosburgh <fubar@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

2007-03-02[VLAN]: Avoid a 4-order allocation.Dan Aloni
This patch splits the vlan_group struct into a multi-allocated struct. On x86_64, the size of the original struct is a little more than 32KB, causing a 4-order allocation, which is prune to problems caused by buddy-system external fragmentation conditions. I couldn't just use vmalloc() because vfree() cannot be called in the softirq context of the RCU callback.

2007-03-02[PPPOE]: Key connections properly on local device.Florian Zumbiehl
It is based on the assumption that an interface's ifindex is basically an alias for a local MAC address, so incoming packets now are matched to sockets based on remote MAC, session id, and ifindex of the interface the packet came in on/the socket was bound to by connect(). For relayed packets, the socket that's used for relaying is selected based on destination MAC, session ID and the interface index of the interface whose name currently matches the name requested by userspace as the relaying source interface.
