netif_tx_queue_stopped(txq) is most of the time false.
Yet its cost is very expensive on SMP.
static inline int netif_tx_queue_stopped(const struct netdev_queue *dev_queue)
{
return test_bit(__QUEUE_STATE_XOFF, &dev_queue->state);
}
I saw this on oprofile hunting and bnx2 driver bnx2_tx_int().
We probably should split "struct netdev_queue" in two parts, one
being read mostly.
__netif_tx_lock() touches _xmit_lock & xmit_lock_owner, these
deserve a separate cache line.

This is V2 of the smsc911x fifo byteswap patch.
The smsc911x hardware supports both big and little and endian
hardware configurations, and the linux smsc911x driver currently
detects word order.
For correct operation on big endian platforms lacking swapped
byte lanes the following patch is needed. Only fifo data is
swapped, register data does not require any swapping.

The skb_gro_* code fails to handle the case where a header starts
in the linear area but ends in the frags area. Since the goal
of skb_gro_* is to optimise the case of completely non-linear
packets, we can simply bail out if we have anything in the linear
area.

When creating a certain types of VPN, NetworkManager will first attempt
to find an available tun device by iterating through 'vpn%d' until it
finds one that isn't already busy. Then it'll set that to be persistent
and owned by the otherwise unprivileged user that the VPN dæmon itself
runs as.
There's a race condition here -- during the period where the vpn%d
device is created and we're waiting for the VPN dæmon to actually
connect and use it, if we try to create _another_ device we could end up
re-using the same one -- because trying to open it again doesn't get
-EBUSY as it would while it's _actually_ busy.
So solve this, we add an IFF_TUN_EXCL flag which causes tun_set_iff() to
fail if it would be opening an existing persistent tundevice -- so that
we can make sure we're getting an entirely _new_ device.

Add support for parsing the device tree for PHY devices on an MDIO bus.
Currently many of the PowerPC ethernet drivers are open coding a solution
for reading data out of the device tree to find the correct PHY device.
This patch implements a set of common routines to:
a) let MDIO bus drivers register phy_devices described in the tree, and
b) let MAC drivers find the correct phy_device via the tree.

This patch makes changes in preparation for supporting open firmware
device tree descriptions of MDIO busses. Changes include:
- Cleanup handling of phy_map[] entries; they are already NULLed when
registering and so don't need to be re-cleared, and it is good practice
to clear them out when unregistering.
- Split phy_device registration out into a new function so that the
OF helpers can do two stage registration (separate allocation and
registration steps).

The SO_MSGLIMIT socket option modifies the message limit for new
IUCV communication paths.
The message limit specifies the maximum number of outstanding messages
that are allowed for connections. This setting can be lowered by z/VM
when an IUCV connection is established.
Expects an integer value in the range of 1 to 65535.
The default value is 65535.
The message limit must be set before calling connect() or listen()
for sockets.
If sockets are already connected or in state listen, changing the message
limit is not supported.
For reading the message limit value, unconnected sockets return the limit
that has been set or the default limit. For connected sockets, the actual
message limit is returned. The actual message limit is assigned by z/VM
for each connection and it depends on IUCV MSGLIMIT authorizations
specified for the z/VM guest virtual machine.

Allow 'classification' of socket data that is sent or received over

(native) iucv message is used.
This patch provides the cmsg interface for iucv_sock_recvmsg() and
iucv_sock_sendmsg(). Applications can use the msg_control field of
struct msghdr to set or get the target class as a
"socket control message" (SCM/CMSG).

The maximum sleep interval, for powersave purposes, is
determined by the DTIM period (it may not be larger)
and the required networking latency (it must be small
enough to fulfil those constraints).
This makes mac80211 calculate the maximum sleep interval
based on those constraints, and pass it to the driver.
Then the driver should instruct the device to sleep at
most that long.
Note that the device is responsible for aligning the
maximum sleep interval between DTIMs, we make sure it's
not longer but it needs to make sure it's between them.
Also, group some powersave documentation together and
make it more explicit that we support managed mode only,
and no IBSS powersaving (yet).

The TIM IE must not be shorter than 4 bytes, so verify that
when parsing it and use the proper type. To ease that adjust
struct ieee80211_tim_ie to have a virtual bitmap of size
at least 1.
Also check that the TIM IE is actually present before trying
to parse it!
Because other people may need the function, make it a static
inline in ieee80211.h.

2.6.30. This purports to be the full, correct fix. -- JWL)

Add new nl80211 attributes that can be used with NL80211_CMD_SET_WIPHY
and NL80211_CMD_GET_WIPHY to manage fragmentation/RTS threshold and
retry limits.
Since these values are stored in struct wiphy, remove the local copy
from mac80211 where feasible (frag & rts threshold). The retry limits
are currently needed in struct ieee80211_conf, but these could be
eventually removed since the driver should have access to the values
in struct wiphy.

Trying to separate header files into net/wireless.h and
net/cfg80211.h has been a source of confusion. Remove
net/wireless.h (because there also is the linux/wireless.h)
and subsume everything into net/cfg80211.h -- except the
definitions for regulatory structures which get moved to
a new header net/regulatory.h.
The "new" net/cfg80211.h is now divided into sections.
There are no real changes in this patch but code shuffling
and some very minor documentation fixes.
I have also, to make things reflect reality, put in a
copyright line for Luis to net/regulatory.h since that
is probably exclusively written by him but was formerly
in a file that only had my copyright line.

This adds IBSS API along with (preliminary) wext handlers.
The wext handlers can only do IBSS so you need to call them
from your own wext handlers if the mode is IBSS.
The nl80211 API requires
* an SSID
* a channel (frequency) for the case that a new IBSS
has to be created
It optionally supports
* a flag to fix the channel
* a fixed BSSID
The cfg80211 code also takes care to leave the IBSS before
the netdev is set down. If wireless extensions are used, it
also caches values when the interface is down and instructs
the driver to join when the interface is set up.

Some hardware defects may require the hardware to be re-initialised

libertas: add support for Marvell SD8688 chip
Use RxPD->pkt_ptr to locate eth803 header in the packet
received since SD8688/v10 firmware allows a gap between
RxPD and eth803 header.
Set SDIO block size to 256 for CMD53.
The maximum block size for SD8688 WLAN function is set
to 512 in TPLFE_MAX_BLK_SIZE. But using 512 as block size
results upto 2K bytes data (4 blocks) being transferred
and causes buffer overflow in firmware.
Both changes above are backward compatible with earlier
firmware versions for SD8385/SD8686.
The SDIO_DEVICE_IDs for SD8688 chip are added in

to take in the TSC as an optional parameter instead of as a

The removal of the SAME target accidentally removed one feature that is
not available from the normal NAT targets so far, having multi-range
mappings that use the same mapping for each connection from a single
client. The current behaviour is to choose the address from the range
based on source and destination IP, which breaks when communicating
with sites having multiple addresses that require all connections to
originate from the same IP address.
Introduce a IP_NAT_RANGE_PERSISTENT option that controls whether the
destination address is taken into account for selecting addresses.
