Open vSwitch uses Generic Netlink interface for communication
between userspace and kernel module. genl_notify() is used
for sending notification back to userspace.genl_notify() is analogous to rtnl_notify() but uses genl_sock
instead of rtnl.Signed-off-by: Pravin B Shelar

act as such devices.I was considering adding Adaptative RED (Sally Floyd, Ramakrishna
Gummadi, Scott Shender), August 2001In this version, maxp is dynamic (from 1% to 50%), and user only have to
setup min_th (target average queue size)
(max_th and wq (burst in linux RED) are automatically setup)By the way it seems we have a small bug in red_change()
if (skb_queue_empty(&sch->q))
red_end_of_idle_period(&q->parms);First, if queue is empty, we should call
red_start_of_idle_period(&q->parms);Second, since we dont use anymore sch->q, but q->qdisc, the test is
meaningless.Oh well...
[PATCH] sch_red: fix red_change()
Now RED is classful, we must check q->qdisc->q.qlen, and if queue is empty,
we start an idle period, not end it.Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet

The dqc_bitmap field of struct ocfs2_local_disk_chunk is 32-bit aligned,
but not 64-bit aligned. The dqc_bitmap is accessed by ocfs2_set_bit(),
ocfs2_clear_bit(), ocfs2_test_bit(), or ocfs2_find_next_zero_bit(). These
are wrapper macros for ext2_*_bit() which need to take an unsigned long
aligned address (though some architectures are able to handle unaligned
address correctly)So some 64bit architectures may not be able to access the dqc_bitmap
correctly.This avoids such unaligned access by using another wrapper functions for
ext2_*_bit(). The code is taken from fs/ext4/mballoc.c which also need to
handle unaligned bitmap access.Signed-off-by: Akinobu Mita

Commit 1386be55e32a3c5d8ef4a2b243c530a7b664c02c ("dccp: fix

When in user-stp mode, bridge master do not follow state of its slaves, so
after the following sequence of events it can stuck forever in no-carrier
state:
1) turn stp off
2) put all slaves down - master device will follow their state and also go in
no-carrier state
3) turn stp on with bridge-stp script returning 0 (go to the user-stp mode)
Now bridge master won't follow slaves' state and will never reach running
state.This patch solves the problem by making user-stp and kernel-stp behavior
similar regarding master following slaves' states.Signed-off-by: Vitalii Demianets

This patch adds support for legacy Bosch CC770 and Intel AN82527 CAN
controllers on the ISA or PC-104 bus. The I/O port or memory address
and the IRQ number must be specified via module parameters:insmod cc770_isa.ko port=0x310,0x380 irq=7,11
for ISA devices using I/O ports or:
insmod cc770_isa.ko mem=0xd1000,0xd1000 irq=7,11
for memory mapped ISA devices.
Indirect access via address and data port is supported as well:
insmod cc770_isa.ko port=0x310,0x380 indirect=1 irq=7,11
Furthermore, the following mode parameter can be defined:
clk: External oscillator clock frequency (default=16000000 [16 MHz])
cir: CPU interface register (default=0x40 [DSC])
bcr: Bus configuration register (default=0x40 [CBY])
cor: Clockout register (default=0x00)Note: for clk, cir, bcr and cor, the first argument re-defines the
default for all other devices, e.g.:insmod cc770_isa.ko mem=0xd1000,0xd1000 irq=7,11 clk=24000000
is equivalent to
insmod cc770_isa.ko mem=0xd1000,0xd1000 irq=7,11 clk=24000000,24000000

Commit 4a54c8c16 introduced raid-repair, killing the individual
readpage_io_failed_hook entries from inode.c and disk-io.c. Commit
4bb31e92 introduced new readahead code, adding a readpage_io_failed_hook to
disk-io.c.The raid-repair commit had logic to disable raid-repair, if
readpage_io_failed_hook is set. Thus, the readahead commit effectively
disabled raid-repair for meta data.This commit changes the logic to always attempt raid-repair when needed and
call the readpage_io_failed_hook in case raid-repair fails. This is much
more straight forward and should have been like that from the beginning.Signed-off-by: Jan Schmidt

Currently netem is not in the ability to emulate channel bandwidth. Only static
delay (and optional random jitter) can be configured.To emulate the channel rate the token bucket filter (sch_tbf) can be used. But
TBF has some major emulation flaws. The buffer (token bucket depth/rate) cannot
be 0. Also the idea behind TBF is that the credit (token in buckets) fills if
no packet is transmitted. So that there is always a "positive" credit for new
packets. In real life this behavior contradicts the law of nature where
nothing can travel faster as speed of light. E.g.: on an emulated 1000 byte/s
link a small IPv4/TCP SYN packet with ~50 byte require ~0.05 seconds - not 0
seconds.Netem is an excellent place to implement a rate limiting feature: static
delay is already implemented, tfifo already has time information and the
user can skip TBF configuration completely.This patch implement rate feature which can be configured via tc. e.g:
tc qdisc add dev eth0 root netem rate 10kbit
To emulate a link of 5000byte/s and add an additional static delay of 10ms:
tc qdisc add dev eth0 root netem delay 10ms rate 5KBps
Note: similar to TBF the rate extension is bounded to the kernel timing
system. Depending on the architecture timer granularity, higher rates (e.g.
10mbit/s and higher) tend to transmission bursts. Also note: further queues
living in network adaptors; see ethtool(8).Signed-off-by: Hagen Paul Pfeifer
