This patch is to kill directly reference of netdev->priv too. Because the private data needs special memory: lower 16MB DMA. alloc_etherdev() can not do this work. So we can't use netdev->priv to point to netdev's private data. Use netdev->ml_priv instead. Signed-off-by: Wang Chen <wangchen@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

1. Use netdev_priv(dev) to replace dev->priv. 2. Alloc netdev's private data by alloc_netdev(). Signed-off-by: Wang Chen <wangchen@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

LAN9500 supports tx checksum offload, which slightly decreases cpu utilisation. The benefit isn't very large because we still require the skb to be linearized, but it does save a few cycles. This patch adds support for it, and enables it by default. Signed-off-by: Steve Glendinning <steve.glendinning@smsc.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The use of xchg() hasn't been necessary since 2.2.something when proper locking was added to packet schedulers. In the case of classifiers they mostly weren't even necessary before that since they're mainly used to assign a NULL pointer to the filter root in the ->destroy path; the root is destroyed immediately after that.

Add classful DRR scheduler as a more flexible replacement for SFQ. The main difference to the algorithm described in "Efficient Fair Queueing using Deficit Round Robin" is that this implementation doesn't drop packets from the longest queue on overrun because its classful and limits are handled by each individual child qdisc.

This patch is to kill directly reference of netdev->priv too. Because the private data should be allocated in DMA area, alloc_etherdev() can't satisfy this needs.

Currently, if multiple unicast addresses are programmed into a mv643xx_eth interface, the core networking will resort to enabling promiscuous mode on the interface, as mv643xx_eth does not implement ->set_rx_mode(). This patch switches mv643xx_eth over from ->set_multicast_list() to ->set_rx_mode(), and implements support for secondary unicast addresses. The hardware can handle multiple unicast addresses as long as their first 11 nibbles are the same (i.e. are of the form xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xy where the x part is the same for all addresses), so if that is the case, we use that mode. If it's not the case, we enable unicast promiscuous mode in the hardware, which is slightly better than enabling promiscuous mode for multicasts as well, which is what would happen before. While we are at it, change the programming sequence so that we don't clear all filter bits first, so we don't lose all incoming packets while the filter is being reprogrammed.

The mv643xx_eth driver uses the rdl()/wrl() macros to read and write hardware registers. Per-port registers are accessed in the following way: #define PORT_STATUS(p) (0x0444 + ((p) << 10)) [...] static inline u32 rdl(struct mv643xx_eth_private *mp, int offset) { return readl(mp->shared->base + offset); } [...] port_status = rdl(mp, PORT_STATUS(mp->port_num)); By giving the per-port 'struct mv643xx_eth_private' its own 'void __iomem *base' pointer that points to the per-port register area, we can get rid of both the double indirection and the << 10 that is done for every per-port register access -- this patch does that.

1. When alloc_etherdev(), no memory be allocated to netdev->priv. 2. And it's need to get a whole page for priv. For these reasons, use netdev->ml_priv to point to the page is the best method to convert directly reference of netdev->priv.

SKF_AD_NLATTR allows us to find the first matching attribute in a stream of netlink attributes from one offset to the end of the netlink message. This is not suitable to look for a specific matching inside a set of nested attributes. For example, in ctnetlink messages, if we look for the CTA_V6_SRC attribute in a message that talks about an IPv4 connection, SKF_AD_NLATTR returns the offset of CTA_STATUS which has the same value of CTA_V6_SRC but outside the nest. To differenciate CTA_STATUS and CTA_V6_SRC, we would have to make assumptions on the size of the attribute and the usual offset, resulting in horrible BSF code. This patch adds SKF_AD_NLATTR_NEST, which is a variant of SKF_AD_NLATTR, that looks for an attribute inside the limits of a nested attributes, but not further. This patch validates that we have enough room to look for the nested attributes - based on a suggestion from Patrick McHardy.

When suspending the device the ring structure is freed which causes it to loose track of the count. To resolve this we need to move the ring count outside of the ring structure and store it in the adapter struct. In addition to resolving the suspend/resume issue this patch also addresses issues seen in the event of memory allocation errors causing uneven ring sizes on multiple queues.

This patch prepares RCU migration of listening_hash table for TCP/DCCP protocols. listening_hash table being small (32 slots per protocol), we add a spinlock for each slot, instead of a single rwlock for whole table. This should reduce hold time of readers, and writers concurrency. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
