Sridhar Samudrala 8e1e8a4779 net: Fix IPv6 GSO type checks in Intel ethernet drivers
Found this problem when testing IPv6 from a KVM guest to a remote
host via e1000e device on the host.
The following patch fixes the check for IPv6 GSO packet in Intel
ethernet drivers to use skb_is_gso_v6(). SKB_GSO_DODGY is also set
when packets are forwarded from a guest.

Jesse Brandeburg 9926146b15 e1000/e1000e: don't use small hardware rx buffers
When testing the "e1000: enhance frame fragment detection" (and e1000e)
patches we found some bugs with reducing the MTU size.  The 1024 byte
descriptor used with the 1000 mtu test also (re) introduced the
(originally) reported bug, and causes us to need the e1000_clean_tx_irq
"enhance frame fragment detection" fix.

So what has occured here is that 2.6.32 is only vulnerable for mtu <
1500 due to the jumbo specific routines in both e1000 and e1000e.
So, 2.6.32 needs the 2kB buffer len fix for those smaller MTUs, but
is not vulnerable to the original issue reported.  It has been pointed
out that this vulnerability needs to be patched in older kernels that
don't have the e1000 jumbo routine.  Without the jumbo routines, we
need the "enhance frame fragment detection" fix the e1000, old
e1000e is only vulnerable for < 1500 mtu, and needs a similar
fix.  We split the patches up to provide easy backport paths.

There is only a slight bit of extra code when this fix and the
original "enhance frame fragment detection" fixes are applied, so
please apply both, even though it is a bit of overkill.

Jesse Brandeburg b94b502896 e1000e: enhance frame fragment detection
Originally patched by Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com>

e1000e could with a jumbo frame enabled interface, and packet split disabled,
receive a packet that would overflow a single rx buffer.  While in practice
very hard to craft a packet that could abuse this, it is possible.

this is related to CVE-2009-4538

specific style used in the driver.  All pre-existing calls to power up or
down the PHY remain untouched.  A new call to power down the PHY when
removing the driver when the interface is down replaces the current call
to reset the PHY in order to reduce power consumption.

Bruce Allan 41cec6f116 e1000e: update Tx Unit hang detection message
The Tx unit hang detection code in e1000e detects other hangs caused by
hardware components (e.g. Rx, DMA units), but it is not possible to detect
exactly which component is hung so it has always assumed a Tx unit hang.
When dumping a message to the system log because of a hang, this patch adds
more data to help narrow the cause of the issue and makes the message
non-Tx-specific.  Because this new code reads PHY registers which can
sleep, move it off to a workqueue.  This and all previously existing work
tasks in the driver are now cancelled when the driver is removed.

Bruce Allan b16a002e3d e1000e: Incorrect MII Link beat reporting.
The driver was only updating MII stats when an LSC up was detected and
the interface had not already been reported up to netdev. This meant
MII stats returned in response to an SIOCGMIIREG ioctl would always
show a link up if it had ever been up. This was misleading the networking
daemon guessnet, which uses this ioctl, into making improper network port
selections.
This fix adds a call to e1000_phy_read_status() to actively read the
mii stats before responding to the SIOCGMIIREG ioctl.

changed the logic for determining if we should call napi_complete or
not at then end of a napi poll.

If the NIC is using MSI-X with no work to do in ->poll, net_rx_action
can just spin indefinitely on older kernels and for 2 jiffies on newer
kernels since napi_complete is never called and budget isn't
decremented.

because we use two different cache lines from skb_shared_info.

One to access nr_frags, one to access dma_maps[0]

Instead of dma_maps being an array of MAX_SKB_FRAGS + 1 elements,
let dma_head alone in a new dma_head field, close to nr_frags,
to reduce cache lines misses.

Tested on my dev machine (bnx2 & tg3 adapters), nice speedup !

Bruce Allan a4f58f5455 e1000e: add support for 82577/82578 GbE LOM parts
This patch provides support for the next generation Intel desktop
and mobile gigabit ethernet LOM adapters.  These adapters are the
follow-on parts to the LOMs tied to the prior ICH chipsets and are
comprised of a MAC in the PCH chipset and an external PHY (82577 for
mobile and 82578 for desktop versions).  New features consist of PHY
wakeup to save power by completely turning off the MAC while in Sx
state, and 4K jumbo frames.

Bruce Allan 2adc55c959 e1000e: specify max supported frame size in adapter struct
By putting the maximum frame size supported by the hardware into the

Bruce Allan 3ec2a2b80f e1000e: correct flow control thresholds
The flow control thresholds, i.e. high and low watermarks of the Rx
FIFO for when the hardware should transmit PAUSE frames (XON and XOFF,
respectively), need to be tuned for more efficient use of the FIFO.
The logic to set the thresholds for parts that support early-receive
(ERT) was also wrong in that it should check whether jumbo frames are
in use.
