Sedat Dilek 1170bed04e smsc-ircc2: Fix section mismatch derived from smsc_ircc_pnp_probe()
This fixes the following warning:

drivers/net/irda/smsc-ircc2.o(.data+0x18): Section mismatch in reference from the variable smsc_ircc_pnp_driver to the function .init.text:smsc_ircc_pnp_probe()
The variable smsc_ircc_pnp_driver references
the function __init smsc_ircc_pnp_probe()
If the reference is valid then annotate the
variable with __init* or __refdata (see linux/init.h) or name the variable:
*_template, *_timer, *_sht, *_ops, *_probe, *_probe_one, *_console,

Tested with linux-next (next-20101231)

Yes, why not, I am only wondering why loopback / dummy (and others ?)
only set NETIF_F_TSO :)

Since I want to play with ECN, I might also add NETIF_F_TSO_ECN ;)

For other flags, I really doubt it can matter on ifb ?

[PATCH v3 net-next-2.6] ifb: add performance flags

IFB can use the full set of features flags (NETIF_F_SG |
NETIF_F_FRAGLIST | NETIF_F_TSO | NETIF_F_NO_CSUM | NETIF_F_HIGHDMA) to
avoid unnecessary split of some packets (GRO for example)

Changli suggested to also set vlan_features, NETIF_F_TSO6,
NETIF_F_TSO_ECN.

Jarek suggested to add NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_TX as well.

Paul Gortmaker 0cf445ceaf netdev: Update status of 8390 based drivers in MAINTAINERS
With the original 8 bit ISA ne1000 card being over 20 years old, it
only makes sense to consider ne.c and all the other toplevel 8390
based driver files as legacy for obsolete hardware.  The most
recent thing made in large quantities that was 8390 based were
those crazy PCI ne2k clones - and even they are now 10+ years old.

Also remove myself as maintainer, since the only changes to these
drivers going forward will be the generic API type changes that
touch all drivers.

stephen hemminger 0885a30b69 sky2: implement 64 bit stats
This implements 64 bit statistics support and fixes races when reading
counter values. The PHY counters can only be accessed 16 bits at a time,
so they are subject to carry races.

NB:
  * TX/RX counters are maintained in software because the the hardware packet count
    is only a 32 bit value.

  * Error counters are really only 32 bit.

  * Old 32 bit counter fields in dev->stats still used for some
    software counters

TIPC includes no debugging code, and any debugging code added by developers

when certain abnormal conditions occur, and any developer-added calls to the
TIPC debug macros are compiled in.

The sky2 driver uses the legacy PCI power management, so it has to do
some PCI-specific things in its ->suspend() and ->resume() callbacks,
which isn't necessary and should better be done by the PCI
sybsystem-level power management code.  Moreover, it uses
device_set_wakeup_enable() incorrectly (that function should be
used when the WoL setting is changed rather than during suspend).

Convert sky2 to the new PCI power management framework and make it

Michael Chan a29ba9d2d8 bnx2: Free IRQ before freeing status block memory
When changing ring size, we free all memory including status block
memory.  If we're in INTA mode and sharing IRQ, the IRQ handler can
be called and it will reference the NULL status block pointer.

Because of the lockless design of the IRQ handler, there is no simple
way to synchronize and prevent this.  So we avoid this problem by
freeing the IRQ handler before freeing the status block memory.

Shmulik Ravid 785b9b1aeb bnx2x: adding dcbnl support
Adding dcbnl implementation to bnx2x allowing users to manage the
embedded DCBX engine.

Shmulik Ravid ea45fe4e17 dcbnl: adding DCBX feature flags get-set
Adding a pair of set-get routines to dcbnl for setting the negotiation
flags of the various DCB features. Conforms to the CEE flavor of DCBX
The user sets these flags (enable, advertise, willing) for each feature
to be used by the DCBX engine. The 'get' routine returns which of the
features is enabled after the negotiation.

This patch is dependent on the following patches:
[net-next-2.6 PATCH 1/3] dcbnl: add support for ieee8021Qaz attributes
[net-next-2.6 PATCH 2/3] dcbnl: add appliction tlv handlers

Shmulik Ravid 6241b6259b dcbnl: adding DCBX engine capability
Adding an optional DCBX capability and a pair for get-set routines for
setting the device DCBX mode. The DCBX capability is a bit field of
supported attributes. The user is expected to set the DCBX mode with a
subset of the advertised attributes.

John Fastabend 96b99684e3 net_dcb: add application notifiers
DCBx applications priorities can be changed dynamically. If
application stacks are expected to keep the skb priority
consistent with the dcbx priority the stack will need to
be notified when these changes occur.

This patch adds application notifiers for the stack to register
with.

John Fastabend 9ab933ab2c dcbnl: add appliction tlv handlers
This patch adds application tlv handlers. Networking stacks
may use the application priority to set the skb priority of
their stack using the negoatiated dcbx priority.

This patch provides the dcb_{get|set}app() routines for the
stack to query these parameters. Notice lower layer drivers
can use the dcbnl_ops routines if additional handling is
needed. Perhaps in the firmware case for example

John Fastabend 3e29027af4 dcbnl: add support for ieee8021Qaz attributes
The IEEE8021Qaz is the IEEE standard version of CEE. The
standard has had enough significant changes from the CEE
version that many of the CEE attributes have no meaning
in the new spec or do not easily map to IEEE standards.

Rather then attempt to create a complicated mapping
between CEE and IEEE standards this patch adds a nested
IEEE attribute to the list of DCB attributes. The policy
is,

	[DCB_ATTR_IFNAME]
	[DCB_ATTR_STATE]
	...
	[DCB_ATTR_IEEE]
		[DCB_ATTR_IEEE_ETS]
		[DCB_ATTR_IEEE_PFC]
		[DCB_ATTR_IEEE_APP_TABLE]
			[DCB_ATTR_IEEE_APP]
			...

The following dcbnl_rtnl_ops routines were added to handle
the IEEE standard,

	int (*ieee_getets) (struct net_device *, struct ieee_ets *);
	int (*ieee_setets) (struct net_device *, struct ieee_ets *);
	int (*ieee_getpfc) (struct net_device *, struct ieee_pfc *);
	int (*ieee_setpfc) (struct net_device *, struct ieee_pfc *);
	int (*ieee_getapp) (struct net_device *, struct dcb_app *);
	int (*ieee_setapp) (struct net_device *, struct dcb_app *);
