2012-11-09UAPI: Fix compilation of the wanxl firmware blob.David Howells
The wanxl firmware needs access to some bits of UAPI stuff, so the -I flag in the Makefile needs adjusting to point at the UAPI headers. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2012-11-08netconsole: add oops_only module optionAmerigo Wang
Some people wants to log only oops messages via netconsole, (this is also why netoops was invented) so add a module option for netconsole. This can be tuned via /sys/module/netconsole/parameters/oops_only at run time as well. Cc: David Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Signed-off-by: Cong Wang <amwang@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-11-08vlan: set sysfs device_type to 'vlan'Doug Goldstein

2012-11-08ipv6: remove rt6i_peer_genid from rt6_info and its handlerLi RongQing
6431cbc25f(Create a mechanism for upward inetpeer propagation into routes) introduces these codes, but this mechanism is never enabled since rt6i_peer_genid always is zero whether it is not assigned or assigned by rt6_peer_genid(). After 5943634fc5 (ipv4: Maintain redirect and PMTU info in struct rtable again), the ipv4 related codes of this mechanism has been removed, I think we maybe able to remove them now.

2012-11-07Merge tag 'batman-adv-for-davem' of git://git.open-mesh.org/linux-mergeDavid S. Miller
Included changes: - minimal fixes to the packet layout to avoid the __packed attribute when not needed - new packet type called UNICAST_4ADDR: in this packet it is possible to find both source and destination node (in the classic UNICAST header only the destination field exists). - a new feature: Distributed ARP Table (D.A.T.). It aims to reduce ARP lookups latency by means of a simil-DHT approach.

2012-11-07bnx2x: Support loading cnic resources at run-timeMerav Sicron
This patch replaces the BCM_CNIC define with a flag which can change at run-time and which does not use the CONFIG_CNIC kconfig option. For the PF/hypervisor driver cnic is always supported, however allocation of cnic resources and configuration of the HW for offload mode is done only when the cnic module registers bnx2x.

This patch updates the driver-FW HSI to support changes to the 'update' ramrod (FW supports this change since 7.8.2).

2012-11-07packet: tx_ring: allow the user to choose tx data offsetPaul Chavent
The tx data offset of packet mmap tx ring used to be : (TPACKET2_HDRLEN - sizeof(struct sockaddr_ll)) The problem is that, with SOCK_RAW socket, the payload (14 bytes after the beginning of the user data) is misaligned. This patch allows to let the user gives an offset for it's tx data if he desires. Set sock option PACKET_TX_HAS_OFF to 1, then specify in each frame of your tx ring tp_net for SOCK_DGRAM, or tp_mac for SOCK_RAW.

2012-11-07mlx4: change TX coalescing defaultsEric Dumazet
mlx4 currently uses a too high tx coalescing setting, deferring TX completion interrupts by up to 128 us. With the recent skb_orphan() removal in commit 8112ec3b872, performance of a single TCP flow is capped to ~4 Gbps, unless we increase tcp_limit_output_bytes. I suggest using 16 us instead of 128 us, allowing a finer control. Performance of a single TCP flow is restored to previous levels, while keeping TCP small queues fully enabled with default sysctl. This patch is also a BQL prereq.

2012-11-07batman-adv: enable fast client detection using unicast_4addr packetsAntonio Quartulli
The "early client detection mechanism" can be extended to find new clients by means of unicast_4addr packets. The unicast_4addr packet contains as well as the broadcast packet (which is currently used in this mechanism) the address of the originating node and can therefore be used to install new entries in the Global Translation Table Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli <ordex@autistici.org> Signed-off-by: Marek Lindner <lindner_marek@yahoo.de>

2012-11-07batman-adv: Distributed ARP Table - add compile optionAntonio Quartulli
This patch makes it possible to decide whether to include DAT within the batman-adv binary or not. It is extremely useful when the user wants to reduce the size of the resulting module by cutting off any not needed feature. Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli <ordex@autistici.org>
2012-11-07batman-adv: Distributed ARP Table - add snooping functions for ARP messagesAntonio Quartulli
In case of an ARP message going in or out the soft_iface, it is intercepted and a special action is performed. In particular the DHT helper functions previously implemented are used to store all the ARP entries belonging to the network in order to provide a fast and unicast lookup instead of the classic broadcast flooding mechanism. Each node stores the entries it is responsible for (following the DHT rules) in its soft_iface ARP table. This makes it possible to reuse the kernel data structures and functions for ARP management. Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli <ordex@autistici.org>
2012-11-07batman-adv: Distributed ARP Table - add ARP parsing functionsAntonio Quartulli
ARP messages are now parsed to make it possible to trigger special actions depending on their types (snooping). Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli <ordex@autistici.org>
2012-11-07batman-adv: Distributed ARP Table - implement local storageAntonio Quartulli
Since batman-adv cannot inter-operate with the host ARP table, this patch introduces a batman-adv private storage for ARP entries exchanged within DAT. This storage will represent the node local cache in the DAT protocol. Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli <ordex@autistici.org>
2012-11-07batman-adv: Distributed ARP Table - create DHT helper functionsAntonio Quartulli

2012-11-07batman-adv: Distributed ARP Table - add a new debug log levelAntonio Quartulli
A new log level has been added to concentrate messages regarding DAT: ARP snooping, requests, response and DHT related messages. The new log level is named BATADV_DBG_DAT Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli <ordex@autistici.org>
2012-11-07batman-adv: add UNICAST_4ADDR packet typeAntonio Quartulli
The current unicast packet type does not contain the orig source address. This patches add a new unicast packet (called UNICAST_4ADDR) which provides two new fields: the originator source address and the subtype (the type of the data contained in the packet payload). The former is useful to identify the node which injected the packet into the network and the latter is useful to avoid creating new unicast packet types in the future: a macro defining a new subtype will be enough.

2012-11-07batman-adv: Mark correctly aligned headers not as __packedSven Eckelmann
Headers which are already perfectly aligned and create a 4 byte boundary non-ethernet header payload can have the __packed attribute removed. The __packed attribute doesn't change the appeareance of the packet for these headers because no extra padding is necessary to align the data members. The compiler will also create slightly faster code for loads of multi-byte members.

2012-11-07batman-adv: Reserve extra bytes in skb for better alignmentSven Eckelmann
The ethernet header is 14 bytes long. Therefore, the data after it is not 4 byte aligned and may cause problems on systems without unaligned data access.

2012-11-07net: calxedaxgmac: ip align receive buffersRob Herring
On gcc 4.7, we will get alignment traps in the ip stack if we don't align the ip headers on receive. The h/w can support this, so use ip aligned allocations. Cut down the unnecessary padding on the allocation. The buffer can start on any byte alignment, but the size including the begining offset must be 8 byte aligned. So the h/w buffer size must include the NET_IP_ALIGN offset. Thanks to Eric Dumazet for the initial patch highlighting the padding issues.
