Patch 9e39f7c5b311a306977c5471f9e2ce4c456aa038 changed the
DBG_PRINT() macro and the if clause was wrongly changed. It means
that currently all the DBG_PRINT are being printed, flooding the
kernel log buffer with things like:
s2io: eth6: Next block at: c0000000b9c90000

There are still some LRO cards that cause GSO errors in tun,
and BUG on this is an unfriendly way to tell the admin
to disable LRO.
Further, experience shows we might have more GSO bugs lurking.
See https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16413
as a recent example.
dumping a packet will make it easier to figure it out.
Replace BUG with warning+dump+drop the packet to make
GSO errors in tun less critical and easier to debug.

commit 6146b1a4da98377e4abddc91ba5856bef8f23f1e

bonding: Fix ALB mode to balance traffic on VLANs
the dev field in the RLB ARP packet handler was set to NULL to wildcard
and accommodate balancing VLANs on top of bonds.
This has the side-effect of the packet handler being called against
other, non RLB-enabled bonds, and a kernel oops results when it tries to
dereference rx_hashtbl in rlb_update_entry_from_arp(), which won't be
set for those bonds, e.g. active-backup.
With the __netif_receive_skb() changes from:
commit 1f3c8804acba841b5573b953f5560d2683d2db0d
Author: Andy Gospodarek <andy@greyhouse.net>
Date: Mon Dec 14 10:48:58 2009 +0000
bonding: allow arp_ip_targets on separate vlans to use arp validation
frames received on VLANs correctly make their way to the bond's handler,
so we no longer need to wildcard the device.
The oops can be reproduced by:
modprobe bonding
echo active-backup > /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/mode
echo 100 > /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/miimon
ifconfig bond0 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx netmask xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
echo +eth0 > /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/slaves
echo +eth1 > /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/slaves
echo +bond1 > /sys/class/net/bonding_masters
echo balance-alb > /sys/class/net/bond1/bonding/mode
echo 100 > /sys/class/net/bond1/bonding/miimon
ifconfig bond1 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx netmask xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
echo +eth2 > /sys/class/net/bond1/bonding/slaves
echo +eth3 > /sys/class/net/bond1/bonding/slaves
Pass some traffic on bond0. Boom.
[ Tested, behaves as advertised. I do not believe a test of the bonding
mode is necessary, as there is no race between the packet handler and
the bonding mode changing (the mode can only change when the device is
closed). Also updated the log message to include the reproduction and
full commit ids. -J ]

Mark Wagner reported OOM symptoms when sending UDP traffic over
a macvtap link to a kvm receiver.
This appears to be caused by the fact that macvtap packet queues
are unlimited in length. This means that if the receiver can't
keep up with the rate of flow, then we will hit OOM. Of course
it gets worse if the OOM killer then decides to kill the receiver.
This patch imposes a cap on the packet queue length, in the same
way as the tuntap driver, using the device TX queue length.
Please note that macvtap currently has no way of giving congestion
notification, that means the software device TX queue cannot be
used and packets will always be dropped once the macvtap driver
queue fills up.
This shouldn't be a great problem for the scenario where macvtap
is used to feed a kvm receiver, as the traffic is most likely
external in origin so congestion notification can't be applied
anyway.
Of course, if anybody decides to complain about guest-to-guest
UDP packet loss down the track, then we may have to revisit this.
Incidentally, this patch also fixes a real memory leak when
macvtap_get_queue fails.
Chris Wright noticed that for this patch to work, we need a
non-zero TX queue length. This patch includes his work to change
the default macvtap TX queue length to 500.

Some ixgbe cards put an invalid VF device ID in the PCIe SR-IOV
capability. The ixgbe driver is only valid for PFs or non SR-IOV
hardware. It seems that the same problem could occur on igb hardware as
well, so if we discover we are trying to initialize a VF in ixbge_probe
or igb_probe, print an error and exit.
Based on a patch for ixgbe from Chris Wright <chrisw@sous-sol.org>.

The order of freeing the IRQ and freeing the device in firmware
in ibmveth_close can cause the adapter to become unusable after a
subsequent ibmveth_open. Only a reboot of the OS will make the
network device usable again. This is seen when cycling the adapter
up and down while there is network activity.
There is a window where an IRQ will be left unserviced (H_EOI will not
be called). The solution is to make a VIO_IRQ_DISABLE h_call, free the
device with firmware, and then call free_irq.

The rt2x00dev->intf_work workqueue is never initialized when a driver is
probed for a non-existent device (in this case rt2500usb). On such a
path we call rt2x00lib_remove_dev() to free any resources initialized
during the probe before we use INIT_WORK to initialize the workqueue.
This causes lockdep to get confused since the lock used in the workqueue
hasn't been initialized yet but is now being acquired during
cancel_work_sync() called by rt2x00lib_remove_dev().
Fix this by initializing the workqueue first before we attempt to probe
the device. This should make lockdep happy and avoid breaking any
assumptions about how the library cleans up after a probe fails.
phy0 -> rt2x00lib_probe_dev: Error - Failed to allocate device.
INFO: trying to register non-static key.
the code is fine but needs lockdep annotation.

"hostap: Protect against initialization interrupt" (which reinstated
"wireless: hostap, fix oops due to early probing interrupt")
reintroduced Bug 16111. This is because hostap_pci wasn't setting
dev->base_addr, which is now checked in prism2_interrupt. As a result,
initialization was failing for PCI-based hostap devices. This corrects
that oversight.

This patch resolves a number of issues in the statistics gathering of
the s2io driver.
On Xframe adapters, the received multicast statistics counter includes
pause frames which are not indicated to the driver. This can cause
issues where the multicast packet count is higher than what has actually
been received, possibly higher than the number of packets received.
The driver software counters are replaced with the adapter hardware
statistics for rx_packets, rx_bytes, and tx_bytes. It also uses the
overflow registers to determine if the statistics wrapped the 32bit
register (removing the window of having a statistic value less than the
previous call). rx_length_errors statistic now includes undersized
packets in addition to oversized packets in its counting. Finally,
rx_crc_errors are now being counted.

Reducing real_num_queues needs to flush the qdisc otherwise
skbs with queue_mappings greater then real_num_tx_queues can
be sent to the underlying driver.
The flow for this is,
dev_queue_xmit()
dev_pick_tx()
skb_tx_hash() => hash using real_num_tx_queues
skb_set_queue_mapping()
...
qdisc_enqueue_root() => enqueue skb on txq from hash
...
dev->real_num_tx_queues -= n
...
sch_direct_xmit()
dev_hard_start_xmit()
ndo_start_xmit(skb,dev) => skb queue set with old hash
skbs are enqueued on the qdisc with skb->queue_mapping set
0 < queue_mappings < real_num_tx_queues. When the driver
decreases real_num_tx_queues skb's may be dequeued from the
qdisc with a queue_mapping greater then real_num_tx_queues.
This fixes a case in ixgbe where this was occurring with DCB
and FCoE. Because the driver is using queue_mapping to map
skbs to tx descriptor rings we can potentially map skbs to
rings that no longer exist.

When there is a firmware error or the firmware is reloaded for some other
reason we currently clear all station information, including keys
associated with them. A problem is that we do not clear some other
information regarding keys that are not stored in the station structs.
The consequence of this is that when the device is reconfigured after the
firmware reload we can, among other things, run out of key indices.
This fixes:

When two systems using bonding devices in adaptive load
balancing (ALB) communicates with each other, an endless
ping-pong of ARP replies starts between these two systems.
What happens? In the ALB mode, bonding driver keeps track
of each client connected in a hash table, so it can do the
receive load balancing (RLB). This hash table is updated
when an ARP reply is received, then it scans for the client
entry, updates its MAC address and flag it to be announced
later. Therefore, two seconds later, the alb monitor runs
and send for each updated client entry two ARP replies
updating this specific client. The same process happens on
the receiving system, causing the endless ping-pong of arp
replies.
See more information including the relevant functions below:
System 1 System 2
bond0 bond0
ping <system2>
ARP request --------->
<--------- ARP reply
+->rlb_arp_recv <---------------------+ <--- loop begins
| rlb_update_entry_from_arp |

| client_info->ntt = 1;
| bond_info->rx_ntt = 1;
| < snipped, same as in system 1>
+------- <-------------- send ARP reply
<-------------- send ARP reply
Besides the unneeded networking traffic, this loop breaks
a cluster because a backup system can't take over the IP
address. There is always one system sending an ARP reply
poisoning the network.
This patch fixes the problem adding a check for the MAC
address before updating it. Thus, if the MAC address didn't

In driver ixgbe, ixgbe_atr may cause crashes for non-ipv4 packets. Just
add a test to check skb->protocol. It may crash on short packets due
to ip_hdr() access.

Disabling the tx laser while receiving DMA requests
can hang the device. After this occurs the device
is in a bad state. The GPIO bit never clears when
PCI master access is disabled and a reboot is required
to get the device in a good state again.

This patch added to 2.6.34:
commit 5f6c01819979afbfec7e0b15fe52371b8eed87e8
Author: Jesse Brandeburg <jesse.brandeburg@intel.com>
Date: Wed Apr 14 16:04:23 2010 -0700
ixgbe: fix bug with vlan strip in promsic mode
among other things added a function called ixgbe_vlan_filter_enable.
This new function wants to access and set some rx_ring parameters, but
adapter->rx_ring has already been freed. This simply moves the free
until after the access and makes __ixgbe_shutdown look more like
ixgbe_remove.

Support for netpoll over bonded interfaces was added here:
commit f6dc31a85cd46a959bdd987adad14c3b645e03c1
Author: WANG Cong <amwang@redhat.com>
Date: Thu May 6 00:48:51 2010 -0700
bonding: make bonding support netpoll
but it is bad enough that we should probably just disable netpoll over
bonding until some of the locking logic in the bonding driver is changed
or converted completely to RCU. Simple actions like changing the active
slave in active-backup mode will hang the box if a high enough printk
debugging level is enabled.
Keeping the old code around will be good for anyone that wants to work
on it (and for after the RCU conversion), so I propose this small patch
rather than ripping it all out.

When building tx command, always set TX_CMD_FLAG_PROT_REQUIRE_MSK
for 5000 series and up.
Without setting this bit the firmware will not examine the RTS/CTS setting
and thus not send traffic with the appropriate protection. RTS/CTS is is
required for HT traffic in a noisy environment where, without this setting,
connections will stall on some hardware as documented in the patch that
initially attempted to address this:
commit 1152dcc28c66a74b5b3f1a3ede0aa6729bfd48e4
Author: Wey-Yi Guy <wey-yi.w.guy@intel.com>
Date: Fri Jan 15 13:42:58 2010 -0800
iwlwifi: Fix throughput stall issue in HT mode for 5000
Similar to 6000 and 1000 series, RTS/CTS is the recommended
protection mechanism for 5000 series in HT mode based on the HW design.
Using RTS/CTS will better protect the inner exchange from interference,
especially in highly-congested environment, it also prevent uCode encounter
TX FIFO underrun and other HT mode related performance issues.
For 3945 and 4965, different flags are used for RTS/CTS or CTS-to-Self
protection.
