2008-09-24sfc: Make queue flushes more reliableBen Hutchings
Increase the potential retry count for RX flushes from 5 to 100. Stop polling the RX_DESC_PTR_TBL to infer that a flush might have happened. Instead absolutely rely on the flush events, unless bug 7803 applies (Falcon rev A only). To keep things quick, request flushes for every TX and RX queue up front, and match up the events to requests.

2008-09-248139too: [cosmetic] fix incorrect register for flash-romMats Erik Andersson
I would like to submit a correction to the driver drivers/net/8139too.c, which in no way changes the compiled driver, but does change the value of a previously incorrect value for the configuration register address of Flash PROM on the network processor rtl8139C. This corrected value is in accordance with the datasheet for rtl8139C, and in addition this new value is indeed used in other functional drivers that use this adapter for programming a Flash memory chip in situ. But as said, the two new constants are never referenced in the driver maintained by you: they are only informational and correct!

VLAN doesn't work except if you'd opened the interface in promiscuous mode before.

2008-09-24bonding: Do not tx-balance some IPv6 packets on ALB/TLB bondsVlad Yasevich
IPv6 all-node-multicasts and DAD probes should not be tx-balanced on ALB/TLB bonds. The all-node-multicast is an equivalent to IPv4 broadcasts. DAD probes have to be sent only on the primary so that we don't get false-positive detections. Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>
2008-09-24[netdrvr] atl1e: Don't take the mdio_lock in atl1e_probeMatthew Wilcox
Lockdep warns about the mdio_lock taken with interrupts enabled then later taken from interrupt context. Initially, I considered changing these to spin_lock_irq/spin_unlock_irq, but then I looked at atl1e_phy_init() and saw that it calls msleep(). Sleeping while holding a spinlock is not allowed either. In the probe path, we haven't registered the interrupt handler, so it can't poke at this card yet. It's before we call register_netdev(), so I don't think any other threads can reach this card either. If I'm right, we don't need a spinlock at all.

2008-09-24[netdrvr] au1000_eth: Spinlock initialisation fixMartin Gebert
Seems like the spinlock for the AU1x00 ethernet device is initialised too late, as it is already used in enable_mac(), which is called via mii_probe() before the init takes place. The attached patch is working here for a Linux Au1100 2.6.22.6 kernel, and as far as I checked should also be applicable to the current head (just line numbers differ).

2008-09-24tulip: Fix dead 21041 ethernet after ifconfig downThomas Bogendoerfer
The de2104x did a pci_disable_device() in it's close function, but the open function never does a pci_enable_device() and assumes that the device is already enabled. Considering that downing the interface is just a temporary thing the pci_disable_device() isn't a pretty good idea and removing it from the close function just fixes the bug.

2008-09-23aoe: Fix OOPS after SKB queue changes.David S. Miller
Reported by Thomas Graf. If we don't unlink the SKB from the queue when we send it out in aoenet_xmit(), dev_hard_start_xmit() will see skb->next as non-NULL and interpret this to mean the SKB is part of a GSO segment list.

2008-09-23pkt_sched: Remove the tx queue state check in qdisc_run()Jarek Poplawski
The current check wrongly uses the state of one (currently the first) tx queue for all tx queues in case of non-default qdiscs. This check mainly prevented requeuing loop with __netif_schedule(), but now it's controlled inside __qdisc_run(), while dequeuing. The wrongness of this check was first noticed by Herbert Xu.

2008-09-22net: network device name ifalias supportStephen Hemminger
This patch add support for keeping an additional character alias associated with an network interface. This is useful for maintaining the SNMP ifAlias value which is a user defined value. Routers use this to hold information like which circuit or line it is connected to. It is just an arbitrary text label on the network device. There are two exposed interfaces with this patch, the value can be read/written either via netlink or sysfs. This could be maintained just by the snmp daemon, but it is more generally useful for other management tools, and the kernel is good place to act as an agreed upon interface to store it.
