The asix usb driver currently depends on NET_ETHERNET which means you cannot enable this driver if you only have 1000mbit enabled in your kernel. Since there is no real dependency between the NET_ETHERNET portion and the asix driver, simply drop it.

drivers/net/pasemi_mac.c is enabled by CONFIG_PASEMI_MAC, which depends on PPC64 && PCI. However pasemi_mac.c uses several routines that are only built when PPC_PASEMI is selected. This can lead to an unbuildable config: ERROR: ".pasemi_dma_start_chan" [drivers/net/pasemi_mac.ko] undefined! So make CONFIG_PASEMI_MAC depend on PPC_PASEMI instead of PPC64.

If "location" is > "addr_len" bits, the high bits of location would interfere with the READ_CMD sent to the eeprom controller. A patch was submitted to bug: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4420 which simply truncated the "location", read whatever was in "location modulo addr_len", and returned that value. That avoids confusing the eeprom but seems like the wrong solution to me. Correct would be to not read beyond "1 << addr_len" address of the eeprom. I am submitting two changes to implement this: 1) tulip_read_eeprom will return zero (since we can't return -EINVAL) if this is attempted (defensive programming). 2) In tulip_core.c, fix the tulip_read_eeprom caller so they don't iterate past addr_len bits and make sure the entire tp->eeprom[] array is cleared. I konw we don't strictly need both. I would prefer both in the tree since it documents the issue and provides a second "defense" from the bug from creeping back in.

The qdisc_run loop is currently unbounded and runs entirely in a softirq. This is bad as it may create an unbounded softirq run. This patch fixes this by calling need_resched and breaking out if necessary. It also adds a break out if the jiffies value changes since that would indicate we've been transmitting for too long which starves other softirqs.

Based upon a lockdep report. Since ->poll() can be invoked from netpoll with interrupts disabled, we must not unconditionally enable interrupts in napi_complete(). Instead we must use local_irq_{save,restore}(). Noticed by Peter Zijlstra: <irqs disabled> netpoll_poll() poll_napi() spin_trylock(&napi->poll_lock) poll_one_napi() napi->poll() := sky2_poll() napi_complete() local_irq_disable() local_irq_enable() <--- *BUG* <irq> irq_exit() do_softirq() net_rx_action() spin_lock(&napi->poll_lock) <--- Deadlock! Because we still hold the lock.... Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

ESP does not account for the IV size when calling pskb_may_pull() to ensure everything it accesses directly is within the linear part of a potential fragment. This results in a BUG() being triggered when the both the IPv4 and IPv6 ESP stack is fed with an skb where the first fragment ends between the end of the esp header and the end of the IV.

Some hardware never seem to accept the "goto sleep" command, since the legacy drivers don't have suspend and resume handlers the entire code for it was basically a educated guess (based on the "enable radio" code). This patch will only print a warning when the "goto sleep" command fails, and just continues as usual. Perhaps that means the device will not reach a sleep state and consumes more power then it should, but it is equally possible it simply needs some seconds longer to sleep. Anyway, by making the command non-fatal it will not block the rest of the suspend procedure. Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

In commit e6bafba5, a bug was fixed that involved converting !x & y to !(x & y). The code below shows the same pattern, and thus should perhaps be fixed in the same way. This is not tested and clearly changes the semantics, so it is only something to consider. The semantic patch that makes this change is as follows: (http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/) // <smpl> @@ expression E1,E2; @@ ( !E1 & !E2 | - !E1 & E2 + !(E1 & E2) ) // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> Cc: Tomas Winkler <tomas.winkler@intel.com> Cc: Guy Cohen <guy.cohen@intel.com> Cc: Reinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com> Cc: Zhu Yi <yi.zhu@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

This fixes a bug detected by CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK: if_cs_get_int_status() is only called from lbs_thread(), via priv->hw_get_int_status. However, lbs_thread() has already taken the priv->driver_lock. So it's a fault to take the same lock again here.

The IPv6 BEET output function is incorrectly including the inner header in the payload to be protected. This causes a crash as the packet doesn't actually have that many bytes for a second header. The IPv4 BEET output on the other hand is broken when it comes to handling an inner IPv6 header since it always assumes an inner IPv4 header. This patch fixes both by making sure that neither BEET output function touches the inner header at all. All access is now done through the protocol-independent cb structure. Two new attributes are added to make this work, the IP header length and the IPv4 option length. They're filled in by the inner mode's output function. Thanks to Joakim Koskela for finding this problem. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Commit 8b7817f3 ([IPSEC]: Add ICMP host relookup support) introduced some dst leaks on error paths: the rt pointer can be forgotten to be put. Fix it bu going to a proper label. Found after net namespace's lo refused to unregister :) Many thanks to Den for valuable help during debugging. Herbert pointed out, that xfrm_lookup() will put the rtable in case of error itself, so the first goto fix is redundant. Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: Denis V.

IFF_ALLMULTI is an indication from the network stack to the driver to disable multicast filters, drivers should never set it directly. Since the UML networking device doesn't have any filtering capabilites, it doesn't the set_multicast_list function at all, it is kept so userspace can still issue SIOCADDMULTI/SIOCDELMULTI ioctls however.

Changing these flags requires to use dev_set_allmulti/dev_set_promiscuity or dev_change_flags. Setting it directly causes two unwanted effects: - the next dev_change_flags call will notice a difference between dev->gflags and the actual flags, enable promisc/allmulti mode and incorrectly update dev->gflags - this keeps the underlying device in promisc/allmulti mode until the VLAN device is deleted Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S.
