VLAN filtering allows the hypervisor to drop packets from VLANs
that we're not a part of, further reducing the number of extraneous
packets recieved. This makes use of the VLAN virtqueue command class.
The CTRL_VLAN feature bit tells us whether the backend supports VLAN
filtering.Signed-off-by: Alex Williamson

Make use of the MAC control virtqueue class to support a MAC
filter table. The filter table is managed by the hypervisor.
We consider the table to be available if the CTRL_RX feature
bit is set. We leave it to the hypervisor to manage the table
and enable promiscuous or all-multi mode as necessary depending
on the resources available to it.Signed-off-by: Alex Williamson

Make use of the RX_MODE control virtqueue class to enable the
set_rx_mode netdev interface. This allows us to selectively
enable/disable promiscuous and allmulti mode so we don't see
packets we don't want. For now, we automatically enable these
as needed if additional unicast or multicast addresses are
requested.Signed-off-by: Alex Williamson

This will be used for RX mode, MAC filter table, VLAN filtering, etc...
The control transaction consists of one or more "out" sg entries and
one or more "in" sg entries. The first out entry contains a header
defining the class and command. Additional out entries may provide
data for the command. The last in entry provides a status response
back from the command.Virtqueues typically run asynchronous, running a callback function
when there's data in the channel. We can't readily make use of this
in the command paths where we need to use this. Instead, we kick
the virtqueue and spin. The kick causes an I/O write, triggering an
immediate trap into the hypervisor.Signed-off-by: Alex Williamson

S2IO driver is printing dev->name before the name being allocated, which
display eth%d instead of eth0, eth1, etc. Example:eth%d: Enabling MSIX failed
eth%d: MSI-X requested but failed to enableThis patch just change eth%d to s2io.

The netlink connector uses its own workqueue to relay the datas sent
from userspace to the appropriate callback. If you launch the test
from Documentation/connector and change it a bit to send a high flow
of data, you will see thousands of events coming to the "cqueue"
workqueue by looking at the workqueue tracer.This flow of events can be sent very quickly. So, to not encumber the
kevent workqueue and delay other jobs, the "cqueue" workqueue should
remain.But this workqueue is pointless most of the time, it will always be
created (assuming you have built it of course) although only
developpers with specific needs will use it.So avoid this "most of the time useless task", this patch proposes to
create this workqueue only when needed once. The first jobs to be
sent to connector callbacks will be sent to kevent while the "cqueue"
thread creation will be scheduled to kevent too.The following jobs will continue to be scheduled to keventd until the
cqueue workqueue is created, and then the rest of the jobs will
continue to perform as usual, through this dedicated workqueue.Each time I tested this patch, only the first event was sent to
keventd, the rest has been sent to cqueue which have been created
quickly.Also, this patch fixes some trailing whitespaces on the connector files.

The host really shouldn't be notifying us of config changes
before the device status is VIRTIO_CONFIG_S_DRIVER or
VIRTIO_CONFIG_S_DRIVER_OK.However, if we do happen to be interrupted while we're not
attached to a driver, we really shouldn't oops. Prevent
this simply by checking that device->driver is non-NULL
before trying to notify the driver of config changes.Problem observed by doing a "set_link virtio.0 down" with
QEMU before the net driver had been loaded.Signed-off-by: Mark McLoughlin

Current refcounting for modules (done if CONFIG_MODULE_UNLOAD=y) is
using a lot of memory.Each 'struct module' contains an [NR_CPUS] array of full cache lines.
This patch uses existing infrastructure (percpu_modalloc() &
percpu_modfree()) to allocate percpu space for the refcount storage.Instead of wasting NR_CPUS*128 bytes (on i386), we now use
nr_cpu_ids*sizeof(local_t) bytes.On a typical distro, where NR_CPUS=8, shiping 2000 modules, we reduce
size of module files by about 2 Mbytes. (1Kb per module)Instead of having all refcounters in the same memory node - with TLB misses
because of vmalloc() - this new implementation permits to have better
NUMA properties, since each CPU will use storage on its preferred node,
thanks to percpu storage.Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet

Changeset c19e654ddbe3831252f61e76a74d661e1a755530
("gre: Add netlink interface") added an include
of linux/ip.h to linux/if_tunnel.hWe can't really let that get exposed to userspace
because this conflicts with types defined in netinet/ip.h
which userland is almost certainly going to have included
either explicitly or implicitly.So guard this include with a __KERNEL__ ifdef.

With the PXA270 MMC hardware, there seems to be an issue of
data corruption on writes where a 4KB data block is offset
by one byte.If we delay enabling the DMA for writes until after the CMD/RESP

This patch adds support for the ST Microelectronics version of

This patch adds a MX2/MX3 specific SDHC driver. The hardware is basically
the same as in the MX1, but unlike the MX1 controller the MX2

MX1 and MX2 in a sane way in one driver.Signed-off-by: Sascha Hauer
