* [PATCH] net/usb: mark LG VL600 LTE modem ethernet interface as WWAN
From: Dan Williams @ 2011-05-09 17:43 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: netdev; +Cc: Andrzej Zaborowski, Oliver Neukum

Like other mobile broadband device ethernet interfaces, mark the LG
VL600 with the 'wwan' devtype so userspace knows it needs additional
configuration via the AT port before the interface can be used.

Yes, I agree that the extra call to synchronize_net() provides no
value, though I think that's actually been true for a while.

Hey Larry.

If this is correct, then probably the memcpy at the
end of the routine needs conversion too.

* [PATCH V3 2/3] MIPS: lantiq: add ethernet driver
From: John Crispin @ 2011-05-09 15:49 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: Ralf Baechle; +Cc: John Crispin, Ralph Hempel, linux-mips, netdev
In-Reply-To: <1304956198-20426-1-git-send-email-blogic@openwrt.org>

This patch adds the driver for the ETOP Packet Processing Engine (PPE32) found
inside the XWAY family of Lantiq MIPS SoCs. This driver makes 100MBit ethernet
work. Support for all 8 dma channels, gbit and the embedded switch found on
the ar9/vr9 still needs to be implemented.

Changes in V2:
* use spinlocks
* use NAPI
* remove duplicate stats counter

Changes in V3:
* validate the MAC passed inside the platform data
* make checkpatch happy

Most Ethernet drivers have a fixed size receive ring and pass preallocated
memory (skb's or pages) for the hardware to fill in. When NAPI poll is run
it refills the ring and passes the data up to netif_receive_skb. NAPI allows
the poll routine to process a limited number of packets (weight) and after
that the poll loop exits and gets rerun by soft interrupt.  If data is
arriving faster than the kernel can process, eventually the receive ring
passed to hardware gets exhausted and the hardware drops packets.

There is no explicit memory bound limit, instead the flow control happens
when the receive ring gets full.

How do other network drivers handle this problem?  Can the same 
strategy be used?

IMO, OOM can recover it certainly but with much cost, so we should
avoid the case. I don't think NAPI can avoid it, because NAPI will
cause skb to be allocated without any limit if there are packets
coming, still no chance left for usbnet_bh to handle and free these
SKBs.

* [PATCH net-next-2.6] vlan: remove one synchronize_net() call
From: Eric Dumazet @ 2011-05-09 14:40 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: David Miller
  Cc: Ben Greear, Patrick McHardy, netdev, Paul E. McKenney,

In-Reply-To: <1304948155.3342.32.camel@edumazet-laptop>

At VLAN dismantle phase, unregister_vlan_dev() makes one
synchronize_net() call after vlan_group_set_device(grp, vlan_id, NULL).

This call can be safely removed because we are calling
unregister_netdevice_queue() to queue device for deletion, and this
process needs at least one rcu grace period to complete.

Your mail client mangles the patch, it should contain original

Please see Documentation/SubmittingPatches, chapter 12 to find out how

And please don't crosspost to oss-security and LKML - send a separate
email to o-s with a short description of a bug and a link to the LKML
thread.  LKML thread is a place to argue and discuss the solution, but
o-s subscribers are probably not interested in such a discussion.

In general __efx_reconfigure_port() might fail because PHYs are tricky
beasts, but for internal loopback that isn't an issue.  So this is very
unlikely to fail.  But I suppose I should move it to the top of the
function.

There is no need (yet) for specific support of the speed.  However you
should provide a patch for ethtool to make it report these flags in the
advertised/lp_advertised/supported masks.

    iwl4965: drop a lone pr_err()
    
    iwl4965_rate_control_register() prints a message at KERN_ERR level.
It
    looks like it's just a debugging message, so pr_err() seems to be
    overdone. But none of the similar functions in drivers/net/wireless
    print a message, so let's just drop it.

Ben,
Please note that I haven't added new definition for 20000 link speed because my understanding is that it no longer required.
Let me know if you think it is required, mainly for the speed extension in the ethtool application.

Just to make things clear, please dont apply this patch, since I posted
another version including Michał idea.

* [PATCH net-next-2.6] net: use batched device unregister in veth and macvlan
From: Eric Dumazet @ 2011-05-09  9:17 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: Michał Mirosław, David Miller

In-Reply-To: <1304929236.3342.8.camel@edumazet-laptop>

veth devices dont use the batched device unregisters yet.

Since veth are a pair of devices, it makes sense to use a batch of two
unregisters, this roughly divides dismantle time by two.

Fix this by changing dellink() callers to always provide a non NULL
head. (Idea from Michał Mirosław)

This patch also handles macvlan case : We now dismantle all macvlans on
top of a lower dev at once.

Do we really need to avoid it, or do we just need to recover?
If avoidance is needed, should we use NAPI?
