Don't do the num_tx_queues based masking on calculating tx queue index. 1) num_tx_queues is not always power-of-2, because it also depends on the online cpu numbers. So the masking could be a performance bug on a 6 cpu system. 2) queue_mapping will be limited by real_num_tx_queues=num_tx_queues in the generic netdev function set_cur_queue_map(). So the bound limiting here is not necessary. Signed-off-by: Wu Fengguang <fengguang.wu@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

This reverts commit 244f46ae. Alan Cox did the research, and just like the other radio protocols zero-length frames have meaning because at the top level ROSE is X.25 PLP. So this zero-length filtering is invalid. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

falcon_sim_phy_event() used EFX_OWORD_FIELD, which operates on bitfields in 128-bit values, on an event, which is a 64-bit value. This should be harmless - these macros always use little-endian ordering, so it would read and write back the following 8 bytes unchanged - but it is obviously wrong.

sfc could call netif_napi_add() multiple times for the same napi_struct, corrupting the list of napi_structs for the associated device and leading to a busy-loop on device removal. Move the call to netif_napi_add() and add a call to netif_napi_del() in the obvious places. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

The BUG_ON(skge->tx_ring.to_use != skge->tx_ring.to_clean) in skge_up() was sometimes observed when setting MTU. skge_down() disables the TX queue, but then reenables it by mistake via skge_tx_clean(). Fix it by moving the waking of the queue from skge_tx_clean() to the other caller. And to make sure start_xmit is not in progress on another CPU, skge_down() should call netif_tx_disable(). The bug was reported to me by Jiri Jilek whose Debian system sometimes failed to boot. He tested the patch and the bug did not happen anymore.

Since everybody has been focusing on baremetal GRO performance no one noticed when I added a bug that zapped gso_size for all GRO packets. This only gets picked up when you forward the skb out of an interface. Thanks to Mark Wagner for noticing this bug when testing kvm.

After switch (rthdr->type) {...},the check below is completely useless.Because: if the type is 2,then hdrlen must be 2 and segments_left must be 1,clearly the check is redundant;if the type is not 2,then goto sticky_done,the check is useless too.

When I made the tun driver use non-linear packets as the preferred option, it broke non-GSO users because they would end up allocating a completely non-linear packet, which triggers a crash when we call eth_type_trans. This patch reverts non-GSO users to using linear packets and adds a check to ensure that GSO users can't cause crashes in the same way.

When vlan acceleration is used on receive, the vlan tag is maintained outside of the skb data.

Hi: gro: Normalise skb before bypassing GRO on netpoll VLAN path When we detect netpoll RX on the GRO VLAN path we bail out and call the normal VLAN receive handler. However, the packet needs to be normalised by calling eth_type_trans since that's what the normal path expects (normally the GRO path does the fixup). This patch adds the necessary call to vlan_gro_frags. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Thanks, Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Marvell 88E1121R Dual PHY device can be hardware-configured to use shared interrupt pin for both PHY ports. For such PHY configurations using shared PHY interrupt phy_interrupt() handler will also schedule a work for PHY port which didn't cause an interrupt. This patch adds a possibility for PHY drivers to provide did_interrupt() function which reports if the PHY (or a PHY port in a multi-PHY device) generated an interrupt. This function is called in phy_change() as phy_change() shouldn't proceed if it is invoked for a PHY which didn't cause an interrupt. So check for interrupt originator in phy_change() to allow early-out. Signed-off-by: Anatolij Gustschin <agust@denx.de> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

There is a race between resume from hibernation and the asynchronous scanning of SCSI devices and to prevent it from happening we need to call scsi_complete_async_scans() during resume from hibernation. In addition, if the resume from hibernation is userland-driven, it's better to wait for all device probes in the kernel to complete before attempting to open the resume device.
