<title>Bonding: fix zero address hole bug in arp_ip_target list</title>

<id>5a31bec014449dc9ca994e4c1dbf2802b7ca458a</id>
<content type='text'>
Fix a zero address hole bug in the bonding arp_ip_target list
that was causing the bond to ignore ARP replies (bugz 13006).
Instead of just setting the array entry to zero, we now
copy any additional entries down one slot, putting the
zero entry at the end.  With this change we can now have
all the loops that walk the array stop when they hit a zero
since there will be no addresses after it.

Changes are based in part on code fragment provided in kernel:

- vxge driver help text file.

- No change from previous submission.

- Changes in previous submissions -
  Removed the performance tuning section with instructions to disable
  time stamps and change sysctl settings - Reported by Dave Miller
  General clean up.
 - Removed tx/rx_pause, exec_mode, tx_steering_type, rx_steering_type, gro,
   intr_type, rx &amp; tx max_indicate_pkts and exec_mode loadable parameters. The
   driver default settings work well in most if not all cases. Another patch
   to configure these parameters with ethtool will be released in the future -
   Reported by Stephen Hemminger.
- Incorporated following fixes based on comments from Ben Hutchings
        Removed references to earlier kernel versions.
        Removed sections that are similar for all drivers -
                Load/Unload
                Identifying the adapter/interface
                Boot time configuration
        Removed loadable parameter -
                NAPI - Napi is always enabled.
                rx_steering_type &amp; ring_blocks - The driver default settings
                work well in most if not all cases. Another patch to configure
                these parameters with ethtool will be released in the future.
        Removed ethtool support section - No need to duplicate ethtool
                docs here.
        Removed Known Issue on SUSE 9 - Doesn't apply when using a
                current kernel.
        Removed Common Problems section - These don't apply to in-tree modules.
        Removed Available Downloads section - Not sure this belongs in-tree.
        Removed Copyright information - This notice doesn't belong in
                the kernel.

<title>ipv6: Fix incorrect disable_ipv6 behavior</title>

<id>9bdd8d40c8c59435664af6049dabe24b7779b203</id>
<content type='text'>
Fix the behavior of allowing both sysctl and addrconf_dad_failure()
to set the disable_ipv6 parameter without any bad side-effects.
If DAD fails and accept_dad &gt; 1, we will still set disable_ipv6=1,
but then instead of allowing an RA to add an address then
immediately fail DAD, we simply don't allow the address to be
added in the first place.  This also lets the user set this flag
and disable all IPv6 addresses on the interface, or on the entire
system.

<title>IPv6: add "disable" module parameter support to ipv6.ko</title>

Add "disable" module parameter support to ipv6.ko by specifying
"disable=1" on module load.  We just do the minimum of initializing
inetsw6[] so calls from other modules to inet6_register_protosw()
won't OOPs, then bail out.  No IPv6 addresses or sockets can be
created as a result, and a reboot is required to enable IPv6.
