2009-03-16zd1211rw: Do not panic on device eject when associatedJouni Malinen
zd_op_tx() must not return an arbitrary error value since that can leave mac80211 trying to retransmit the frame and with the extra data pushed into the beginning of the skb on every attempt, this will end up causing a kernel panic (skb_under_panic from skb_push call).

2009-03-13ppp: ppp_mp_explode() redesignGabriele Paoloni
I found the PPP subsystem to not work properly when connecting channels with different speeds to the same bundle. Problem Description: As the "ppp_mp_explode" function fragments the sk_buff buffer evenly among the PPP channels that are connected to a certain PPP unit to make up a bundle, if we are transmitting using an upper layer protocol that requires an Ack before sending the next packet (like TCP/IP for example), we will have a bandwidth bottleneck on the slowest channel of the bundle. Let's clarify by an example. Let's consider a scenario where we have two PPP links making up a bundle: a slow link (10KB/sec) and a fast link (1000KB/sec) working at the best (full bandwidth). On the top we have a TCP/IP stack sending a 1000 Bytes sk_buff buffer down to the PPP subsystem. The "ppp_mp_explode" function will divide the buffer in two fragments of 500B each (we are neglecting all the headers, crc, flags etc?.). Before the TCP/IP stack sends out the next buffer, it will have to wait for the ACK response from the remote peer, so it will have to wait for both fragments to have been sent over the two PPP links, received by the remote peer and reconstructed. The resulting behaviour is that, rather than having a bundle working @1010KB/sec (the sum of the channels bandwidths), we'll have a bundle working @20KB/sec (the double of the slowest channels bandwidth). Problem Solution: The problem has been solved by redesigning the "ppp_mp_explode" function in such a way to make it split the sk_buff buffer according to the speeds of the underlying PPP channels (the speeds of the serial interfaces respectively attached to the PPP channels). Referring to the above example, the redesigned "ppp_mp_explode" function will now divide the 1000 Bytes buffer into two fragments whose sizes are set according to the speeds of the channels where they are going to be sent on (e.g . 10 Byets on 10KB/sec channel and 990 Bytes on 1000KB/sec channel). The reworked function grants the same performances of the original one in optimal working conditions (i.e. a bundle made up of PPP links all working at the same speed), while greatly improving performances on the bundles made up of channels working at different speeds.

2009-03-13mv643xx_eth: fix unicast address filter corruption on mtu changeLennert Buytenhek
When mv643xx_eth_open() is called to up an interface, port_start() will first re-program the unicast address filter, and then re-initialise the PORT_CONFIG register, but that will disable unicast promiscuous mode if it was enabled by the unicast address filter setup. This isn't a problem on ifconfig up, as ->set_rx_mode() will be called shortly afterwards which will program the filters again, but it does trigger when changing the MTU, which calls mv643xx_eth_stop() and then mv643xx_eth_open() by hand to repopulate the receive rings with skbuffs of the new size. Swap the initialisation of the PORT_START register and the call to the unicast filter setup function to fix this. Signed-off-by: Lennert Buytenhek <buytenh@marvell.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2009-03-13macvlan: Deterministic ingress packet deliveryEric Biederman
Changing the mac address when a macvlan device is up will leave the device on the wrong hash chain making it impossible to receive packets. There is no checking of the mac address set on the macvlan. Allowing a misconfiguration to grab packets from the the underlying device or another macvlan. To resolve these problems I update the hash table of macvlans when the mac address of a macvlan changes, and when updating the hash table I verify that the new mac address is usable. The result is well defined and predictable if not perfect handling of mac vlan mac addresses. To keep the code clear I have created a set of hash table maintenance in macvlan so I am not open coding the hash function and the logic needed to update the hash table all over the place.

2009-03-138139too: allow to set mac address on running deviceJiri Pirko
Similar patch as for 8139cp posted yesterday, so the same comment: So far there was not a chance to set a mac address on running 8139too device. This is for example needed when you want to use this NIC as a bonding slave in bonding device in mode balance-alb. This simple patch allows it.
