Fix from Eric Dumazet. 11) do_tcp_sendpage() unloads the send queue way too fast, because it invokes tcp_push() when it shouldn't. Let the natural sequence generated by the splice paths, and the assosciated MSG_MORE settings, guide the tcp_push() calls. Otherwise what goes out of TCP is spaghetti and doesn't batch effectively into GSO/TSO clusters. From Eric Dumazet. 12) Once we put a SKB into either the netlink receiver's queue or a socket error queue, it can be consumed and freed up, therefore we cannot touch it after queueing it like that. Fixes from Eric Dumazet. 13) PPP has this annoying behavior in that for every transmit call it immediately stops the TX queue, then calls down into the next layer to transmit the PPP frame. But if that next layer can take it immediately, it just un-stops the TX queue right before returning from the transmit method. Besides being useless work, it makes several facilities unusable, in particular things like the equalizers. Well behaved devices should only stop the TX queue when they really are full, and in PPP's case when it gets backlogged to the downstream device. David Woodhouse therefore fixed PPP to not stop the TX queue until it's downstream can't take data any more. 14) IFF_UNICAST_FLT got accidently lost in some recent stmmac driver changes, re-add. From Marc Kleine-Budde. 15) Fix link flaps in ixgbe, from Eric W. Multanen. 16) Descriptor writeback fixes in e1000e from Matthew Vick. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net: (47 commits) net: fix a race in sock_queue_err_skb() netlink: fix races after skb queueing doc, net: Update ndo_start_xmit return type and values doc, net: Remove instruction to set net_device::trans_start doc, net: Update netdev operation names doc, net: Update documentation of synchronisation for TX multiqueue doc, net: Remove obsolete reference to dev->poll ethtool: Remove exception to the requirement of holding RTNL lock MAINTAINERS: update for Marvell Ethernet drivers bonding: properly unset current_arp_slave on slave link up phonet: Check input from user before allocating tcp: tcp_sendpages() should call tcp_push() once ipv6: fix array index in ip6_mc_add_src() mlx4: allocate just enough pages instead of always 4 pages stmmac: re-add IFF_UNICAST_FLT for dwmac1000 bnx2x: Clear MDC/MDIO warning message bnx2x: Fix BCM57711+BCM84823 link issue bnx2x: Clear BCM84833 LED after fan failure bnx2x: Fix BCM84833 PHY FW version presentation bnx2x: Fix link issue for BCM8727 boards. ...

| | * | | mlx4: allocate just enough pages instead of always 4 pagesThadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo2012-04-041-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The driver uses a 2-order allocation, which is too much on architectures like ppc64, which has a 64KiB page. This particular allocation is used for large packet fragments that may have a size of 512, 1024, 4096 or fill the whole allocation. So, a minimum size of 16384 is good enough and will be the same size that is used in architectures of 4KiB sized pages. This will avoid allocation failures that we see when the system is under stress, but still has plenty of memory, like the one below. This will also allow us to set the interface MTU to higher values like 9000, which was not possible on ppc64 without this patch.

The sky2 driver has to have 8 byte alignment of receive buffer on some chip versions. On architectures which don't support efficient unaligned access this doesn't work very well. The solution is to just copy all received packets which is what the driver already does for small packets. This allows the driver to be used on the Tilera TILEmpower-Gx, since the tile architecture doesn't currently handle kernel unaligned accesses, just userspace.

As a result when bonding IPoIB devices, the neigh_cleanup hasn't been called. Fix that by deferring the actual call into the slave ndo_neigh_setup from the time the bonding neigh_setup is called.

This patch also fixes the return value of ip101a_config_init. Without this patch ip101a_config_init returns 2 which is not an error accroding to IS_ERR and the mac driver will continue accessing 2 as valid pointer to phy_dev resulting in memory fault.

Previously, a series of 'change' commands followed by a call to ixgbe_dcbnl_set_all() would always be handled as a HW change - even if the net change was zero. This patch checks for this case of no actual change and skips going through the HW set process. Without this fix, the link could reset and result in a link flap. The core change in this patch is to check for changes in the ixgbe_copy_dcb_cfg() routine - and return a bitmask of detected changes. The other places where changes were detected previously can be removed.

This causes the TX softirq to run, entirely gratuitously. This is "only" a waste of CPU time in the normal case, but it's actively harmful when the PPP device is a TEQL slave — the wakeup will cause the offending device to receive the next TX packet from the TEQL queue, when it *should* have gone to the next slave in the list. We end up seeing large bursts of packets on just *one* slave device, rather than using the full available bandwidth over all slaves. This patch fixes the problem by *not* unconditionally stopping the queue in ppp_start_xmit(). It adds a return value from ppp_xmit_process() which indicates whether the queue should be stopped or not. It *doesn't* remove the call to netif_wake_queue() from ppp_xmit_process(), because other code paths (especially from ppp_output_wakeup()) need it there and it's messy to push it out to the other callers to do it based on the return value. So we leave it in place — it's a no-op in the case where the queue wasn't stopped, so it's harmless in the TX path. Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

But we see that the source MAC address is the MAC address of previous active slave. Emit NETDEV_CHANGEADDR event when bonding changes its MAC address, in order to let arp_netdev_event flush neighbour cache and route cache. How to reproduce this bug ? -----------hostB---------------- hostA ----- switch ---|-- eth0--bond0(192.168.100.2/24)| (192.168.100.1/24 \--|-- eth1-/ | -------------------------------- 1 on hostB, modprobe bonding mode=1 miimon=500 fail_over_mac=active downdelay=1000 num_grat_arp=1 ifconfig bond0 192.168.100.2/24 up ifenslave bond0 eth0 ifenslave bond0 eth1 then eth0 is the active slave, and MAC of bond0 is MAC of eth0. 2 on hostA, ping 192.168.100.2 3 on hostB, tcpdump -i bond0 -p icmp -XXX you will see bond0 uses MAC of eth0 as source MAC in icmp reply. 4 on hostB, ifconfig eth0 down tcpdump -i bond0 -p icmp -XXX (just keep it running in step 3) you will see first bond0 uses MAC of eth1 as source MAC in icmp reply, then it will use MAC of eth0 as source MAC.
