This is completely bogus.

In the dev != NULL case, we'll now write to sll_hatype and sll_halen
twice, which is less inefficient than making sure we write to these
fields only one.

And outside of this part, I really don't like the cleanups you made
here, and they don't improve the code in any way in my eyes.

Sorry.

But loopback is special.  It can support anything the kernel stack can emit.

So for loopback, using NETIF_F_ALL_TSO is in fact appropriate.

I do not understand why we want to advertise a set of ->vlan_features
TSO flags that are different from the flags advertised in ->hw_features.

Why do we want to do this?

Your change to this comment is inaccurate.

AF_PACKET is only one of several types of entities that register these
kinds of taps.

Also, I really don't like exposing these kinds of internals for what is
largely a macvlan internal issue.  Please find a less intrustive way
to solve this problem.

Unfortunately at this stage device will not be able to set-loopback so
I resorted to clearing the bit(s).

Since just clearing the 'features' would leave wanted_features in
discrepant state, I thought this will bring it to a sane state. So
what is a preferred way?

Yes, whatever we decide about the state of the wanted_features, I'll
implement similarly for forcedeth. Which previous problem you are
referring to? Is it the return value? There is a different kind of
failure (error while writing the register). Since update_features()
cant handle return value, I'm ignoring the return value. As far as the
correct return code is concerned, I wasn't sure what is appropriate
return code here (may be PHY_ERROR would be appropriate there) but
again I could ignore it just the way rest of the code is ignoring.

One thing I'd suggest is merging v2.6.39-rc6 into that tree.
rc2 is still pretty early, reason I use it is because that is
what net-next is.

Weird. My kernel is actually 2.6.39-rc2. So which is which?

Before this message, userspace called ioctl(TIOCSETOFFLOAD)
turning offloads on.

And then it probably called ioctl(TIOCSETOFFLOAD) again, disabling them.

I haven't tuned the threshhold, it is left it at 3/4. I ran
the new qemu/vhost/guest, and the results for 1K, 2K and 16K
are below. Note this is a different kernel version from my
earlier test results. So, f.e., BW1 represents 2.6.39-rc2,
the original kernel; while BW2 represents 2.6.37-rc5 (MST's
kernel). This also isn't with the fixes you have sent just
now. I will get a run with that either late tonight or
tomorrow.

yeah Im getting this over here with my macbook pro. all of a sudden 
internet craps out, unable to reconnect.. reboot is the only way to get 
back online.
dmesg here:

I can try bisecting, but might take a while due to this occuring every 
few days or so.

Hi Phil

I assume you use latest linux-2.6 or net-next-2.6 ?

Could you try to force vmalloc() use ?

Will do. I just got another log from my tester, which is more typical of
what he's been getting. I've pasted a portion of it below. The full log
can be viewed at
