2006-01-17[PATCH] spidernet: performance optimizationsArnd Bergmann
Performance optimizations, changes in these areas: - RX and TX checksum offload - correct maximum MTU - don't use TX interrupts anymore, use a timer instead - remove some superfluous barriers - improve RX RAM full handling From: Utz Bacher <utz.bacher@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Osterkamp <jens.osterkamp@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arndb@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
2006-01-17[PATCH] spidernet: fix HW structures for 64 bit dma_addr_tArnd Bergmann
The driver incorrectly used dma_addr_t to describe HW structures and consequently broke when that type was changed in 2.6.15-rc. This changed spidernet to use u32 for 32 bit HW defined structure elements.

2006-01-17[PATCH] spidernet: read firmware from the OF device treeArnd Bergmann
request_firmware() is sometimes problematic, especially in initramfs, reading the firmware from Open Firmware is much preferrable. We still try to get the firmware from the file system first, in order to support old SLOF releases and to allow updates of the spidernet firmware without reflashing the system.

This patch removes the NETIF_F_HW_CSUM flag to be able to use other protocols than IPv4. Hardware checksums for IPv4 should continue to work because NETIF_F_IP_CSUM is still set. The sanity-check has been enhanced to check the used protocol and to not access skb->iph for non-ipv4-packets.

At least some versions of the via-velocity hardware only support checksumming IPv4 frames in hardware. However, the driver is currently setting the NETIF_F_HW_CSUM flag, which indicates support for more than just IPv4. This results in errors when trying to use IPv6 over via-velocity hardware.

2006-01-12[PATCH] bonding: UPDATED hash-table corruption in bond_alb.cJay Vosburgh
I believe I see the race Michael refers to (tlb_choose_channel may set head, which tlb_init_slave clears), although I was not able to reproduce it. I have updated his patch for the current netdev-2.6.git tree and added a version update. His original comment follows: Our systems have been crashing during testing of PCI HotPlug support in the various networking components. We've faulted in the bonding driver due to a bug in bond_alb.c:tlb_clear_slave() In that routine, the last modification to the TLB hash table is made without protection of the lock, allowing a race that can lead tlb_choose_channel() to select an invalid table element. -J Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>

This patch allows the Atmel driver to work correctly with wpa_supplicant and other programs that require some conformance with WEXT-18. It should not affect current behavior of the driver. The patch does four things: 1) Implements SIOCSIWENCODEEXT, SIOCGIWENCODEEXT, SIOCSIWAUTH, and SIOCGIWAUTH calls for unencrypted and WEP operation 2) Accepts zero-filled addresses for SIOCSIWAP, which are legal and should turn off any previous forced WAP address 3) Sends association and de-association events to userspace at most of the appropriate times 4) Fixes erroneous order of CIPHER_SUITE_WEP_* arguments in one location which are actually unused anyway Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dcbw@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>

2006-01-12[PATCH] corruption during e100 MDI register accessODonnell, Michael
We have identified two related bugs in the e100 driver. Both bugs are related to manipulation of the MDI control register. The first problem is that the Ready bit is being ignored when writing to the Control register; we noticed this because the Linux bonding driver would occasionally come to the spurious conclusion that the link was down when querying Link State. It turned out that by failing to wait for a previous command to complete it was selecting what was essentially a random register in the MDI register set. When we added code that waits for the Ready bit (as shown in the patch file below) all such problems ceased. The second problem is that, although access to the MDI registers involves multiple steps which must not be intermixed, nothing was defending against two or more threads attempting simultaneous access. The most obvious situation where such interference could occur involves the watchdog versus ioctl paths, but there are probably others, so we recommend the locking shown in our patch file.
