net/core/netpoll.c::netpoll_send_skb() calls the poll handler when
it is available. As netconsole can be used from almost any context,
IRQ must not be enabled blindly in the NAPI handler of the driver
which supports netpoll.Call trace:
netpoll_send_skb()
{
local_irq_save(flags)
-> netpoll_poll()
-> poll_napi()
-> poll_one_napi()
-> napi->poll()
-> b44_poll()
local_irq_restore(flags)

When I was implementing primary_passive option (formely named primary_lazy) I've
run into troubles with ab_arp. This is the only mode which is not using
bond_select_active_slave() function to select active slave and instead it
selects it itself. This seems to be not the right behaviour and it would be
better to do it in bond_select_active_slave() for all cases. This patch makes
this happen. Please review.Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko

This patch fixes commit e36b9d16c6a6d0f59803b3ef04ff3c22c3844c10. The approach
there is to call dev_close()/dev_open() whenever the device type is changed in
order to remap the device IP multicast addresses to HW multicast addresses.
This approach suffers from 2 drawbacks:*. It assumes tha the device is UP when calling dev_close(), or otherwise
dev_close() has no affect. It is worth to mention that initscripts (Redhat)
and sysconfig (Suse) doesn't act the same in this matter.
*. dev_close() has other side affects, like deleting entries from the routing
table, which might be unnecessary.The fix here is to directly remap the IP multicast addresses to HW multicast
addresses for a bonding device that changes its type, and nothing else.Reported-by: Jason Gunthorpe

When using nanosleep() in an userspace application we get a ratelimit warning
NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 08
for 10 times.
The echo of CAN frames is done from process context and softirq context only.
Therefore the usage of netif_rx() was wrong (for years).This patch replaces netif_rx() with netif_rx_ni() which has to be used from
process/softirq context. It also adds a missing comment that can_send() must
no be used from hardirq context.Signed-off-by: Oliver Hartkopp

In the case of fiber and serdes adapters we were seeing issues with ethtool

Our SGMII phy code was incomplete in that it was not actually placing the
phy in SGMII mode and as a result the PHY was not able to establish a link

Currently the media type detection for CX4 adapters lumps them into a
type of fiber. This causes some strange fallout when firmware verification
is done on the NIC, and certain fiber NIC rules get enforced incorrectly.This patch introduces a new media type for CX4, and puts both 82598 and
82599 CX4 adapters into this bucket.Signed-off-by: Peter P Waskiewicz Jr

The packet split feature was recently moved out of the adapter-wide flags
feature field and into a per-Rx ring feature field. In the process, packet
split isn't properly disabled in the Rx ring if the adapter has it globally
disabled, followed by a device reset.This won't impact the driver today, since it's always in packet split mode.
However, this will prevent any pitfalls if someone disables packet split on
the adapter in the future and doesn't disable it in each ring.Signed-off-by: Peter P Waskiewicz Jr

There's a bug in 4965 powersave that appears to
be related to the way it keeps track of its data
during sleep, but we haven't found it yet. Due to
that, using powersave may spontaneously cause the
device to SYSASSERT when transitioning from sleep
to wake. Therefore, disable powersave for 4965,
until (if ever, unfortunately) we can identify
and fix the problem.Cf. http://bugzilla.intellinuxwireless.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1982

RX handling maintains a few lists that keep track of the RX buffers.
Buffers move from one list to the other as they are used, replenished, and
again made available for usage. In one such instance, when a buffer is used
it enters the "rx_used" list. When buffers are replenished an skb is
attached to the buffer and it is moved to the "rx_free" list. The problem
here is that the buffer is first removed from the "rx_used" list _before_ the
skb is allocated. Thus, if the skb allocation fails this buffer remains
removed from the "rx_used" list and is thus lost for future usage.Fix this by first allocating the skb before trying to attach it to a list.
We add an additional check to not do this unnecessarily.Reported-by: Rick Farrington

This fixes a resume failure where a signal is pending on resume
so the firmware upload fails.
This removes the interruptible sleep, because we don't really need it.
In the worst case (with broken firmware) the sleep loop will take 1 second.
In the common case (working firmware), it will only take a few milliseconds.
So we don't really need to be interruptible.Signed-off-by: Michael Buesch

As the hostap driver was converted to use net_device_ops, a mistake was
made in hostap_main.c (commit 5ae4efbcd2611562a8b93596be034e63495706a5).
Originally, the tx_queue_len was set to 0 for every other interface than
HOSTAP_INTERFACE_MASTER, but the new fragment of code sets tx_queue_len to
0 only for HOSTAP_INTERFACE_MASTER. The opposite of the previous
behavior makes the driver to drop all packets in AP mode.Change the way 0 is assigned to tx_queue_len according to the original
logic.Signed-off-by: Martin Decky
