2013-01-19batman-adv: postpone sysfs removal when unregisteringSimon Wunderlich
When processing the unregister notify for a hard interface, removing the sysfs files may lead to a circular deadlock (rtnl mutex <-> s_active). To overcome this problem, postpone the sysfs removal in a worker.

2013-01-19ixgbevf: Fix statistics corruptionGreg Rose
When the physical function (PF) is reset for any reason the statistics collection in ixgbevf_update_stats needs to wait to update until after the reset synchronization ensures that the PF driver is up and running and is finished with its own reset. Go ahead and clear the link flag to indicate this when the control message from the PF is received. The reset synchronization and recovery in the watchdog task will eventually set the link flag up when the PF has resumed.

2013-01-19ixgbe: Improve performance and reduce size of ixgbe_tx_mapAlexander Duyck
This change is meant to both improve the performance and reduce the size of ixgbe_tx_map. To do this I have expanded the work done in the main loop by pushing first into tx_buffer. This allows us to pull in the dma_mapping_error check, the tx_buffer value assignment, and the initial DMA value assignment to the Tx descriptor. The net result is that the function reduces in size by a little over a 100 bytes and is about 1% or 2% faster.

2013-01-19ixgbe: Update ixgbe Tx flags to improve code efficiencyAlexander Duyck
This change is meant to improve the efficiency of the Tx flags in ixgbe by aligning them with the values that will later be written into either the cmd_type or olinfo. By doing this we are able to reduce most of these functions to either just a simple shift followed by an or in the case of cmd_type, or an and followed by an or in the case of olinfo. To do this I also needed to change the logic and/or drop some flags. I dropped the IXGBE_TX_FLAGS_FSO and it was replaced by IXGBE_TX_FLAGS_TSO since the only place it was ever checked was in conjunction with IXGBE_TX_FLAGS_TSO. I replaced IXGBE_TX_FLAGS_TXSW with IXGBE_TX_FLAGS_CC, this way we have a clear point for what the flag is meant to do. Finally the IXGBE_TX_FLAGS_NO_IFCS was dropped since were are already carrying the data for that flag in the skb. Instead we can just check the bitflag in the skb. In order to avoid type conversion errors I also adjusted the locations where we were switching between CPU and little endian.

2013-01-18ARM: OMAP2: Fix missing omap2xxx_clkt_vps_late_init function callsJon Hunter
During the migration to the common clock framework, calls to the functions omap2xxx_clkt_vps_late_init() were not preserved for OMAP2420 and OMAP2430. This causes the variables "sys_ck_rate" and "curr_prcm_set" to be uninitialised on boot. On reboot, this causes the following error message to be displayed because the appropriate MPU clock frequency (derived from sys_ck_rate) cannot be found. "Could not set MPU rate to 4294MHz" Fix this by adding back calls to omap2xxx_clkt_vps_late_init() in the OMAP2420 and OMAP2430 clock initialisation code.

2013-01-18net: ethernet: davinci_cpdma: Add boundary for rx and tx descriptorsMugunthan V N
When there is heavy transmission traffic in the CPDMA, then Rx descriptors memory is also utilized as tx desc memory looses all rx descriptors and the driver stops working then. This patch adds boundary for tx and rx descriptors in bd ram dividing the descriptor memory to ensure that during heavy transmission tx doesn't use rx descriptors. This patch is already applied to davinci_emac driver, since CPSW and davici_dmac shares the same CPDMA, moving the boundry seperation from Davinci EMAC driver to CPDMA driver which was done in the following commit commit 86d8c07ff2448eb4e860e50f34ef6ee78e45c40c Author: Sascha Hauer <s.hauer@pengutronix.de> Date: Tue Jan 3 05:27:47 2012 +0000 net/davinci: do not use all descriptors for tx packets The driver uses a shared pool for both rx and tx descriptors. During open it queues fixed number of 128 descriptors for receive packets. For each received packet it tries to queue another descriptor. If this fails the descriptor is lost for rx. The driver has no limitation on tx descriptors to use, so it can happen during a nmap / ping -f attack that the driver allocates all descriptors for tx and looses all rx descriptors. The driver stops working then. To fix this limit the number of tx descriptors used to half of the descriptors available, the rx path uses the other half.

The lines if (mlx4_is_mfunc(dev)) { nreq = 2; } else { which hard code the number of requested msi-x vectors under multi-function mode to two can be removed completely, since the firmware sets num_eqs and reserved_eqs appropriately Thus, the code line: nreq = min_t(int, dev->caps.num_eqs - dev->caps.reserved_eqs, nreq); is by itself sufficient and correct for all cases. Currently, for mfunc mode num_eqs = 32 and reserved_eqs = 28, hence four vectors will be enabled.

This happens since broadcast ARP requests sent by VMs were loopback-ed by the HW and hence the bridge learned VM source MACs on both the VM and the uplink ports.

2013-01-18asm-generic, mm: pgtable: convert my_zero_pfn() to macros to fix buildKirill A. Shutemov
Commit 816422ad7647 ("asm-generic, mm: pgtable: consolidate zero page helpers") broke the compile on MIPS if SPARSEMEM is enabled. We get this: In file included from arch/mips/include/asm/pgtable.h:552, from include/linux/mm.h:44, from arch/mips/kernel/asm-offsets.c:14: include/asm-generic/pgtable.h: In function 'my_zero_pfn': include/asm-generic/pgtable.h:466: error: implicit declaration of function 'page_to_section' In file included from arch/mips/kernel/asm-offsets.c:14: include/linux/mm.h: At top level: include/linux/mm.h:738: error: conflicting types for 'page_to_section' include/asm-generic/pgtable.h:466: note: previous implicit declaration of 'page_to_section' was here Due header files inter-dependencies, the only way I see to fix it is convert my_zero_pfn() for __HAVE_COLOR_ZERO_PAGE to macros.

2013-01-18ipv6: Add an error handler for icmp6Steffen Klassert
pmtu and redirect events are now handled in the protocols error handler, so add an error handler for icmp6 to do this. It is needed in the case when we have no socket context.

2013-01-18net: fec: enable pause frame to improve rx prefomance for 1G networkFrank Li
The limition of imx6 internal bus cause fec can't achieve 1G perfomance. There will be many packages lost because FIFO over run. This patch enable pause frame flow control.

2013-01-18net: calxedaxgmac: throw away overrun framesRob Herring
The xgmac driver assumes 1 frame per descriptor. If a frame larger than the descriptor's buffer size is received, the frame will spill over into the next descriptor. So check for received frames that span more than one descriptor and discard them. This prevents a crash if we receive erroneous large packets.
