<id>e81c73596704793e73e6dbb478f41686f15a4b34</id>
<content type='text'>
MAX_HEADER is either set to LL_MAX_HEADER or LL_MAX_HEADER + 48, and
this is controlled by a set of CONFIG_* ifdef tests.

It is trying to use LL_MAX_HEADER + 48 when any of the tunnels are
enabled which set hard_header_len like this:

dev-&gt;hard_header_len = LL_MAX_HEADER + sizeof(struct xxx);

The correct set of tunnel drivers which do this are:

ipip
ip_gre
ip6_tunnel
sit

so make the ifdef test match.

Noticed by Patrick McHardy and with help from Herbert Xu.

<title>[PATCH] bonding: Validate probe replies in ARP monitor</title>

	Add logic to check ARP request / reply packets used for ARP
monitor link integrity checking.

	The current method simply examines the slave device to see if it
has sent and received traffic; this can be fooled by extraneous traffic.
For example, if multiple hosts running bonding are behind a common
switch, the probe traffic from the multiple instances of bonding will
update the tx/rx times on each other's slave devices.

This is version 21 of the Wireless Extensions. Changelog :
	o finishes migrating the ESSID API (remove the +1)
	o netdev-&gt;get_wireless_stats is no more
	o long/short retry

This is a redacted version of a patch originally submitted by Jean
Tourrilhes.  I removed most of the additions, in order to minimize
future support requirements for nl80211 (or other WE successor).

Replace CHECKSUM_HW by CHECKSUM_PARTIAL (for outgoing packets, whose
checksum still needs to be completed) and CHECKSUM_COMPLETE (for
incoming packets, device supplied full checksum).

Patch originally from Herbert Xu, updated by myself for 2.6.18-rc3.

<title>[BRIDGE]: Disable SG/GSO if TX checksum is off</title>

<id>78eb887733ec8ff5d6e6c69e3c32a187a9303622</id>
<content type='text'>
When the bridge recomputes features, it does not maintain the
constraint that SG/GSO must be off if TX checksum is off.
This patch adds that constraint.

On a completely unrelated note, I've also added TSO6 and TSO_ECN
feature bits if GSO is enabled on the underlying device through
the new NETIF_F_GSO_SOFTWARE macro.

Since __vlan_hwaccel_rx() is essentially bypassing the
netif_receive_skb() call that would have occurred if we did the VLAN
decapsulation in software, we are missing the skb_bond() call and the
assosciated checks it does.

Export those checks via an inline function, skb_bond_should_drop(),
and use this in __vlan_hwaccel_rx().
