linux.git/drivers/net/wireless/ipw2x00, branch v3.11

Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next

2013-07-10T01:24:39+00:00

Pull networking updates from David Miller:
"This is a re-do of the net-next pull request for the current merge
window. The only difference from the one I made the other day is that
this has Eliezer's interface renames and the timeout handling changes
made based upon your feedback, as well as a few bug fixes that have
trickeled in.

Highlights:

1) Low latency device polling, eliminating the cost of interrupt
handling and context switches. Allows direct polling of a network
device from socket operations, such as recvmsg() and poll().

Currently ixgbe, mlx4, and bnx2x support this feature.

Full high level description, performance numbers, and design in
commit 0a4db187a999 ("Merge branch 'll_poll'")

From Eliezer Tamir.

2) With the routing cache removed, ip_check_mc_rcu() gets exercised
more than ever before in the case where we have lots of multicast
addresses. Use a hash table instead of a simple linked list, from
Eric Dumazet.

3) Add driver for Atheros CQA98xx 802.11ac wireless devices, from
Bartosz Markowski, Janusz Dziedzic, Kalle Valo, Marek Kwaczynski,
Marek Puzyniak, Michal Kazior, and Sujith Manoharan.

4) Support reporting the TUN device persist flag to userspace, from
Pavel Emelyanov.

5) Allow controlling network device VF link state using netlink, from
Rony Efraim.

6) Support GRE tunneling in openvswitch, from Pravin B Shelar.

7) Adjust SOCK_MIN_RCVBUF and SOCK_MIN_SNDBUF for modern times, from
Daniel Borkmann and Eric Dumazet.

8) Allow controlling of TCP quickack behavior on a per-route basis,
from Cong Wang.

9) Several bug fixes and improvements to vxlan from Stephen
Hemminger, Pravin B Shelar, and Mike Rapoport. In particular,
support receiving on multiple UDP ports.

10) Major cleanups, particular in the area of debugging and cookie
lifetime handline, to the SCTP protocol code. From Daniel
Borkmann.

11) Allow packets to cross network namespaces when traversing tunnel
devices. From Nicolas Dichtel.

12) Allow monitoring netlink traffic via AF_PACKET sockets, in a
manner akin to how we monitor real network traffic via ptype_all.
From Daniel Borkmann.

13) Several bug fixes and improvements for the new alx device driver,
from Johannes Berg.

14) Fix scalability issues in the netem packet scheduler's time queue,
by using an rbtree. From Eric Dumazet.

15) Several bug fixes in TCP loss recovery handling, from Yuchung
Cheng.

16) Add support for GSO segmentation of MPLS packets, from Simon
Horman.

17) Make network notifiers have a real data type for the opaque
pointer that's passed into them. Use this to properly handle
network device flag changes in arp_netdev_event(). From Jiri
Pirko and Timo Teräs.

18) Convert several drivers over to module_pci_driver(), from Peter
Huewe.

19) tcp_fixup_rcvbuf() can loop 500 times over loopback, just use a
O(1) calculation instead. From Eric Dumazet.

20) Support setting of explicit tunnel peer addresses in ipv6, just
like ipv4. From Nicolas Dichtel.

21) Protect x86 BPF JIT against spraying attacks, from Eric Dumazet.

22) Prevent a single high rate flow from overruning an individual cpu
during RX packet processing via selective flow shedding. From
Willem de Bruijn.

23) Don't use spinlocks in TCP md5 signing fast paths, from Eric
Dumazet.

24) Don't just drop GSO packets which are above the TBF scheduler's
burst limit, chop them up so they are in-bounds instead. Also
from Eric Dumazet.

25) VLAN offloads are missed when configured on top of a bridge, fix
from Vlad Yasevich.

26) Support IPV6 in ping sockets. From Lorenzo Colitti.

27) Receive flow steering targets should be updated at poll() time
too, from David Majnemer.

28) Fix several corner case regressions in PMTU/redirect handling due
to the routing cache removal, from Timo Teräs.

29) We have to be mindful of ipv4 mapped ipv6 sockets in
upd_v6_push_pending_frames(). From Hannes Frederic Sowa.

30) Fix L2TP sequence number handling bugs, from James Chapman."

Merge tag 'driver-core-3.9-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core

Pull driver core patches from Greg Kroah-Hartman:
 "Here is the big driver core merge for 3.9-rc1

  There are two major series here, both of which touch lots of drivers
  all over the kernel, and will cause you some merge conflicts:

   - add a new function called devm_ioremap_resource() to properly be
     able to check return values.

   - remove CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL

  Other than those patches, there's not much here, some minor fixes and
  updates"

Pull networking update from David Miller:

 1) Checkpoint/restarted TCP sockets now can properly propagate the TCP
    timestamp offset.  From Andrey Vagin.

 2) VMWARE VM VSOCK layer, from Andy King.

 3) Much improved support for virtual functions and SR-IOV in bnx2x,
    from Ariel ELior.

 4) All protocols on ipv4 and ipv6 are now network namespace aware, and
    all the compatability checks for initial-namespace-only protocols is
    removed.  Thanks to Tom Parkin for helping deal with the last major
    holdout, L2TP.

 5) IPV6 support in netpoll and network namespace support in pktgen,
    from Cong Wang.

 6) Multiple Registration Protocol (MRP) and Multiple VLAN Registration
    Protocol (MVRP) support, from David Ward.

 7) Compute packet lengths more accurately in the packet scheduler, from
    Eric Dumazet.

 8) Use per-task page fragment allocator in skb_append_datato_frags(),
    also from Eric Dumazet.

 9) Add support for connection tracking labels in netfilter, from
    Florian Westphal.

10) Fix default multicast group joining on ipv6, and add anti-spoofing
    checks to 6to4 and 6rd.  From Hannes Frederic Sowa.

11) Make ipv4/ipv6 fragmentation memory limits more reasonable in modern
    times, rearrange inet frag datastructures for better cacheline
    locality, and move more operations outside of locking.  From Jesper
    Dangaard Brouer.

12) Instead of strict master <--> slave relationships, allow arbitrary
    scenerios with "upper device lists".  From Jiri Pirko.

13) Improve rate limiting accuracy in TBF and act_police, also from Jiri
    Pirko.

    all cases.

17) Handle unresolved IPSEC states like ARP, with a resolution packet
    queue.  From Steffen Klassert.

18) Remove TCP Appropriate Byte Count support (ABC), from Stephen
    Hemminger.  This was long overdue.

19) Support SO_REUSEPORT, from Tom Herbert.

20) Allow locking a socket BPF filter, so that it cannot change after a

ipw2x00: simplify scan_event handling

2013-02-09T19:30:48+00:00

* Drop unnesssary delayd_work_pending() tests.

* Unify scan_event_{now|later} by using mod_delayed_work() w/ 0 delay
  for scan_event_now.

* Make ipw2200 scan_event handling match ipw2100 - use
  mod_delayed_work() w/ 0 delay for immediate scanning.

Only compile tested.
