2010-05-06bonding: make bonding support netpollWANG Cong
Based on Andy's work, but I modified a lot. Similar to the patch for bridge, this patch does: 1) implement the 2 methods to support netpoll for bonding; 2) modify netpoll during forwarding packets via bonding; 3) disable netpoll support of bonding when a netpoll-unabled device is added to bonding; 4) enable netpoll support when all underlying devices support netpoll.

2010-05-06netpoll: add generic support for bridge and bonding devicesWANG Cong
This whole patchset is for adding netpoll support to bridge and bonding devices. I already tested it for bridge, bonding, bridge over bonding, and bonding over bridge. It looks fine now. To make bridge and bonding support netpoll, we need to adjust some netpoll generic code. This patch does the following things: 1) introduce two new priv_flags for struct net_device: IFF_IN_NETPOLL which identifies we are processing a netpoll; IFF_DISABLE_NETPOLL is used to disable netpoll support for a device at run-time; 2) introduce one new method for netdev_ops: ->ndo_netpoll_cleanup() is used to clean up netpoll when a device is removed. 3) introduce netpoll_poll_dev() which takes a struct net_device * parameter; export netpoll_send_skb() and netpoll_poll_dev() which will be used later; 4) hide a pointer to struct netpoll in struct netpoll_info, ditto. 5) introduce ->real_dev for struct netpoll. 6) introduce a new status NETDEV_BONDING_DESLAE, which is used to disable netconsole before releasing a slave, to avoid deadlocks.

2010-05-06ixgbevf: Cache PF ack bit in interruptGreg Rose
When the PF acks a message from the VF the VF gets an interrupt. It must cache the ack bit so that polling SW will not miss the ack. Also avoid reading the message buffer on acks because that also will clear the ack bit.

2010-05-06ixgbe: Streamline MC filter setup for VFsGreg Rose
The driver was calling the set Rx mode function for every multicast filter set by the VF. When starting many VMs where each might have multiple VLAN interfaces this would result in the function being called hundreds or even thousands of times. This is unnecessary for the case of the imperfect filters used in the MTA and has been streamlined to be more efficient.

2010-05-06e1000/e1000e: implement a simple interrupt moderationJesse Brandeburg
Back before e1000-7.3.20, the e1000 driver had a simple algorithm that managed interrupt moderation. The driver was updated in 7.3.20 to have the new "adaptive" interrupt moderation but we have customer requests to redeploy the old way as an option. This patch adds the old functionality back.

2010-05-06e1000e: increase rx fifo size to 36K on 82574 and 82583Alexander Duyck
This change increases the RX fifo size to 36K for standard frames and decreases the TX fifo size to 4K. The reason for this change is that on slower systems the RX is much more likely to backfill and need space than the TX is. As long as the TX fifo is twice the size of the MTU we should have more than enough TX fifo.

2010-05-04forcedeth: Kill NAPI config options.David S. Miller
All distributions enable it, therefore no significant body of users are even testing the driver with it disabled. And making NAPI configurable is heavily discouraged anyways. I left the MSI-X interrupt enabling thing in an "#if 0" block so hopefully someone can debug that and it can get re-enabled.

2010-05-03dm9601: fix phy/eeprom write routinePeter Korsgaard
Use correct bit positions in DM_SHARED_CTRL register for writes. Michael Planes recently encountered a 'KY-RS9600 USB-LAN converter', which came with a driver CD containing a Linux driver. This driver turns out to be a copy of dm9601.c with symbols renamed and my copyright stripped. That aside, it did contain 1 functional change in dm_write_shared_word(), and after checking the datasheet the original value was indeed wrong (read versus write bits). On Michaels HW, this change bumps receive speed from ~30KB/s to ~900KB/s. On other devices the difference is less spectacular, but still significant (~30%).

2010-05-03ppp_generic: handle non-linear skbs when passing them to pppdSimon Arlott
Frequently when using PPPoE with an interface MTU greater than 1500, the skb is likely to be non-linear. If the skb needs to be passed to pppd then the skb data must be read correctly. The previous commit fixes an issue with accidentally sending skbs to pppd based on an invalid read of the protocol type. When that error occurred pppd was reading invalid skb data too.

In ppp_input(), PPP_PROTO(skb) may refer to invalid data in the skb. If this happens and (proto >= 0xc000 || proto == PPP_CCPFRAG) then the packet is passed directly to pppd. This occurs frequently when using PPPoE with an interface MTU greater than 1500 because the skb is more likely to be non-linear. The next 2 bytes need to be pulled in ppp_input(). The pull of 2 bytes in ppp_receive_frame() has been removed as it is no longer required. Signed-off-by: Simon Arlott <simon@fire.lp0.eu> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
