[SK_BUFF]: Introduce skb_copy_from_linear_data{_offset}

2007-04-26T05:28:23+00:00

To clearly state the intent of copying from linear sk_buffs, _offset being a overly long variant but interesting for the sake of saving some bytes. Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

[ETH]: Make eth_type_trans set skb->dev like the other *_type_trans

One less thing for drivers writers to worry about. Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

b44: fix IFF_ALLMULTI handling of CAM slots

2007-04-04T02:31:09+00:00

If you set the IFF_ALLMULTI flag on a b44 device, or if you join more than B44_MCAST_TABLE_SIZE multicast groups, the device will stop receiving unicast messages. This is because the __b44_set_mac_addr call sets the zeroth CAM entry to the MAC address of the device, and then the loop at line 1722 proceeds to overwrite it unless the value of i is set by the __b44_load_mcast call. However, when IFF_ALLMULTI is set, that call is bypassed, leaving i set to zero. Fixed by starting the loop at 1 to make it skip the CAM entry for the MAC address.

B44: increase wait loop

2007-02-17T20:37:14+00:00

The b44 Enet control disable bit may take longer to clear on some systems, so the loop count is increased with this patch. Functionality is not compromised, but a debug message can be seen when the bit is not cleared within the count value. Thanks to Vasileios Lourdas who reported the problem.

Broadcom 4400 resume small fix

2007-01-30T14:36:02+00:00

Some issues in b44_resume(). - Return value of pci_enable_device() was ignored. - If request_irq() has failed we have to just disable device and exit. Signed-off-by: Dmitriy Monakhov Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik

b44: Fix frequent link changes

2007-01-30T14:36:01+00:00

This fixes the issue of frequent link changes under heavy traffic reported below: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7696 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=216338 The b44 chip occasionally needs to be reset when ISTAT_ERRORS are encountered. The reset sequence includes a PHY reset that will take many seconds to complete and cause the link to go down and up. By skipping the PHY reset, it will greatly reduce the interruption when ISTAT_ERRORS are encountered. Change the full_reset parameter to reset_kind parameter in b44_init_hw(). This will allow PHY reset to be skipped when ISTAT_ERRORS are encountered. Signed-off-by: Michael Chan Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik

netpoll: drivers must not enable IRQ unconditionally in their NAPI handler

2006-12-26T21:24:11+00:00

net/core/netpoll.c::netpoll_send_skb() calls the poll handler when it is available. As netconsole can be used from almost any context, IRQ must not be enabled blindly in the NAPI handler of a driver which supports netpoll. b57bd06655a028aba7b92e1c19c2093e7fcfb341 fixed the issue for the 8139too.c driver.
