Unfortunately we have to use a real modulus here as
the multiply trick won't work as effectively with cpu
numbers as it does with rxhash values.Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

This patch add an unsolicited notification of the DCBX negotiated
parameters for the CEE flavor of the DCBX protocol. The notification
message is identical to the aggregated CEE get operation and holds all
the pertinent local and peer information. The notification routine is
exported so it can be invoked by drivers supporting an embedded DCBX
stack.Signed-off-by: Shmulik Ravid

The following couple of patches add dcbnl an unsolicited notification of
the the DCB configuration for the CEE flavor of the DCBX protocol. This
is useful when the user-mode DCB client is not responsible for
conducting and resolving the DCBX negotiation (either because the DCBX
stack is embedded in the HW or the negotiation is handled by another
agent in the host), but still needs to get the negotiated parameters.
This functionality already exists for the IEEE flavor of the DCBX
protocol and these patches add it to the older CEE flavor.The first patch extends the CEE attribute GET operation to include not
only the peer information, but also all the pertinent local
configuration (negotiated parameters). The second patch adds and export
a CEE specific notification routine.Signed-off-by: Shmulik Ravid

Just add GSO to vlan_features initialization, and update comments.
When we set offload features, vlan_dev_fix_features() will do more check.
In vlan_dev_fix_features(), final features is decided by
features of real device and vlan_features of real device.Signed-off-by: Shan Wei

The skb->rxhash cannot be properly computed if the
packet is a fragment. To alleviate this, allow the
AF_PACKET client to ask for defragmentation to be
done at demux time.Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

Fanouts allow packet capturing to be demuxed to a set of AF_PACKET
sockets. Two fanout policies are implemented:1) Hashing based upon skb->rxhash
2) Pure round-robin
An AF_PACKET socket must be fully bound before it tries to add itself
to a fanout. All AF_PACKET sockets trying to join the same fanout
must all have the same bind settings.Fanouts are identified (within a network namespace) by a 16-bit ID.
The first socket to try to add itself to a fanout with a particular
ID, creates that fanout. When the last socket leaves the fanout
(which happens only when the socket is closed), that fanout is
destroyed.Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

If gso/gro feature of underlying device is turned off，
then new created vlan device never can turn gso/gro on.Although underlying device don't support TSO, we still
should use software segments for vlan device.Signed-off-by: Shan Wei

If the rx ring is completely empty, then the device may never fire an rx
interrupt. Unfortunately, the rx interrupt is what triggers populating the
rx ring with fresh buffers, so this will cause networking to lock up.This patch replenishes the skb in recv descriptor as soon as it is
peeled off while processing rx completions. If the skb/buffer
allocation fails, existing one is recycled and the packet in hand is
dropped. This way none of the RX desc is ever left empty, thus avoiding
starvationSigned-off-by: Scott J. Goldman

As is_multicast_ether_addr returns true on broadcast packets as
well, we need to explicitly exclude broadcast packets so that
they're always flooded. This wasn't an issue before as broadcast
packets were considered to be an unregistered multicast group,
which were always flooded. However, as we now only flood such
packets to router ports, this is no longer acceptable.Reported-by: Michael Guntsche

The version number of modules build outside of the tree can get revision
numbers added. This is useful to give hints about the revision of a
distribution package and the used patchset. The prepended source number or
branch name doesn't add any additional information which would help to identify
problems and can therefore be omitted.Signed-off-by: Sven Eckelmann

The packet aggregation needs to ensure that only compatible packets
are aggregated. Some of the checks are based on the interface number
while assuming that the first interface also is the primary interface
which is not always the case.
This patch addresses the issue by using the primary_if pointer.Reported-by: Antonio Quartulli

The primary interface OGM has to be broadcasted on all hard-interfaces
even if the primary interface is not the first interface (if_num = 0).
Therefore the code has to compare the originating interface with the
primary interface instead of checking the if_num.Reported-by: Linus Luessing

The tt_local_entry structure now has a 'flags' field. This helps to
unify the flags format to all the client related structures (tt_global_entry
and tt_change). The 'never_purge' field is now encoded in the 'flags' one.
To optimise the usage of this field, its length has been increased to 16bit
in order to use the eight leading bits (from 0 to 7) to store flags that
have to be sent on the wire, while the eight ending ones are used for local
computation only.Moreover 'enum tt_change_flags' is now called 'enum tt_client_flags' and the
defined values apply to the tt_local_entry, tt_global_entry and the tt_change
'flags' field.Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli

Hi,
Reinhard Max also pointed out that the error should EAFNOSUPPORT according
to POSIX.The Linux manpages have it as EINVAL, some other OSes (Minix, HPUX, perhaps BSD) use
EAFNOSUPPORT. Windows uses WSAEFAULT according to MSDN.Other protocols error values in their af bind() methods in current mainline git as far
as a brief look shows:
EAFNOSUPPORT: atm, appletalk, l2tp, llc, phonet, rxrpc
EINVAL: ax25, bluetooth, decnet, econet, ieee802154, iucv, netlink, netrom, packet, rds, rose, unix, x25,
No check?: can/raw, ipv6/raw, irda, l2tp/l2tp_ipCiao, Marcus
