net: ethernet: pcnet32: Setup the SRAM and NOUFLO on Am79C97{3, 5}

2015-04-21T14:30:02+00:00

commit 87f966d97b89774162df04d2106c6350c8fe4cb3 upstream.

On a MIPS Malta board, tons of fifo underflow errors have been observed
when using u-boot as bootloader instead of YAMON. The reason for that
is that YAMON used to set the pcnet device to SRAM mode but u-boot does
not. As a result, the default Tx threshold (64 bytes) is now too small to
keep the fifo relatively used and it can result to Tx fifo underflow errors.
As a result of which, it's best to setup the SRAM on supported controllers
so we can always use the NOUFLO bit.

Pull networking fixes from David Miller:

 1) If the local_df boolean is set on an SKB we have to allocate a
    unique ID even if IP_DF is set in the ipv4 headers, from Ansis
    Atteka.

 2) Some fixups for the new chipset support that went into the sfc
    driver, from Ben Hutchings.

 3) Because SCTP bypasses a good chunk of, and actually duplicates, the
    logic of the ipv6 output path, some IPSEC things don't get done
    properly.  Integrate SCTP better into the ipv6 output path so that
    these problems are fixed and such issues don't get missed in the
    future either.  From Daniel Borkmann.

 4) Fix skge regressions added by the DMA mapping error return checking
    added in v3.10, from Mikulas Patocka.

 5) Kill some more IRQF_DISABLED references, from Michael Opdenacker.

 6) Fix races and deadlocks in the bridging code, from Hong Zhiguo.

    resources.  From Jason Wang.

    Cook.

 9) Fix regression added to netpoll ARP packet handling, in particular
    check for the right ETH_P_ARP protocol code.  From Sonic Zhang.

10) Try to deal with AMD IOMMU errors when using r8169 chips, from
    Francois Romieu.

11) Cure freezes due to recent changes in the rt2x00 wireless driver,
    from Stanislaw Gruszka.

12) Don't do SPI transfers (which can sleep) in interrupt context in
    cw1200 driver, from Solomon Peachy.

13) Fix LEDs handling bug in 5720 tg3 chips already handled for 5719.
    From Nithin Sujir.

14) Make xen_netbk_count_skb_slots() count the actual number of slots
    that will be used, taking into consideration packing and other
    issues that the transmit path will run into.  From David Vrabel.

15) Use the correct maximum age when calculating the bridge
    message_age_timer, from Chris Healy.

16) Get rid of memory leaks in mcs7780 IRDA driver, from Alexey
    Khoroshilov.

17) Netfilter conntrack extensions were converted to RCU but are not
    always freed properly using kfree_rcu().  Fix from Michal Kubecek.

    Manish Chopra.

19) Fix inverted test in ATM nicstar driver, from Andy Shevchenko.

21) Internal switch not initialized properly in bgmac driver, from Rafał
    Miłecki.

22) Netlink messages report wrong local and remote addresses in IPv6
    tunneling, from Ding Zhi.

23) ICMP redirects should not generate socket errors in DCCP and SCTP.
    We're still working out how this should be handled for RAW and UDP
    sockets.  From Daniel Borkmann and Duan Jiong.

24) We've had several bugs wherein the network namespace's loopback
    device gets accessed after it is free'd, NULL it out so that we can
    catch these problems more readily.  From Eric W Biederman.

25) Fix regression in TCP RTO calculations, from Neal Cardwell.

26) Fix too early free of xen-netback network device when VIFs still
    exist.  From Paul Durrant.

MIPS: DECstation I/O ASIC DMA interrupt handling fix

2013-09-13T09:57:40+00:00

This change complements commit d0da7c002f7b2a93582187a9e3f73891a01d8ee4
and brings clear_ioasic_irq back, renaming it to clear_ioasic_dma_irq at
the same time, to make I/O ASIC DMA interrupts functional.

Unlike ordinary I/O ASIC interrupts DMA interrupts need to be deasserted
by software by writing 0 to the respective bit in I/O ASIC's System
Interrupt Register (SIR), similarly to how CP0.Cause.IP0 and CP0.Cause.IP1
bits are handled in the CPU (the difference is SIR DMA interrupt bits are
R/W0C so there's no need for an RMW cycle).  Otherwise the handler is
reentered over and over again.

The only current user is the DEC LANCE Ethernet driver and its extremely
uncommon DMA memory error handler that does not care when exactly the
interrupt is cleared.  Anticipating the use of DMA interrupts by the Zilog
SCC driver this change however exports clear_ioasic_dma_irq for device
drivers to choose the right application-specific sequence to clear the
request explicitly rather than calling it implicitly in the .irq_eoi
handler of `struct irq_chip'.  Previously these interrupts were cleared in
the .end handler of the said structure, before it was removed.

Pull networking changes from David Miller:
 "Noteworthy changes this time around:

   1) Multicast rejoin support for team driver, from Jiri Pirko.

   2) Centralize and simplify TCP RTT measurement handling in order to
      reduce the impact of bad RTO seeding from SYN/ACKs.  Also, when
      both timestamps and local RTT measurements are available prefer
      the later because there are broken middleware devices which
      scramble the timestamp.

      From Yuchung Cheng.

   3) Add TCP_NOTSENT_LOWAT socket option to limit the amount of kernel
      memory consumed to queue up unsend user data.  From Eric Dumazet.

   4) Add a "physical port ID" abstraction for network devices, from
      Jiri Pirko.

   5) Add a "suppress" operation to influence fib_rules lookups, from
      Stefan Tomanek.

   6) Add a networking development FAQ, from Paul Gortmaker.

      from Daniel Borkmann.

   8) Use RCU locking more extensively in openvswitch data paths, from
      Pravin B Shelar.

   9) Add SCTP support to openvswitch, from Joe Stringer.

  10) Add EF10 chip support to SFC driver, from Ben Hutchings.

  11) Add new SYNPROXY netfilter target, from Patrick McHardy.

  12) Compute a rate approximation for sending in TCP sockets, and use
      this to more intelligently coalesce TSO frames.  Furthermore, add
      a new packet scheduler which takes advantage of this estimate when
      available.  From Eric Dumazet.

  13) Allow AF_PACKET fanouts with random selection, from Daniel
      Borkmann.

  14) Add ipv6 support to vxlan driver, from Cong Wang"

net: Move MII out from under NET_CORE and hide it

2013-06-20T05:22:56+00:00

All drivers that select MII also need to select NET_CORE because MII
depends on it.  This is a bit ridiculous because NET_CORE is just a
menu option that doesn't enable any code by itself.

There is also no need for it to be a visible option, since its users
all select it.
