Flow control is implemented by inspecting the qdisc queue length
in order to detect potential overflow on the TX queue. When a threshold
is reached flow-off is sent upwards in the CAIF stack. At the same time
the skb->destructor is hi-jacked by orphaning the SKB and the original
destructor is replaced with a "flow-on" callback. When the "hi-jacked"
SKB is consumed the queue should be empty, and the "flow-on" callback
is called and xon is sent upwards in the CAIF stack.

NCM 1.0 does not support anything but Ethernet framing, hence
CAIF payload will be put into Ethernet frames.
Discovery is based on fixed USB vendor 0x04cc (ST-Ericsson),
product-id 0x230f (NCM). In this variant only CAIF payload is sent over
the NCM interface.
The CAIF stack (cfusbl.c) will when USB interface register first check if
we got a CDC NCM USB interface with the right VID, PID.
It will then read the device's Ethernet address and create a 'template'
Ethernet TX header, using a broadcast address as the destination address,
and EthType 0x88b5 (802.1 Local Experimental - vendor specific).
A protocol handler for 0x88b5 is setup for reception of CAIF frames from
the CDC NCM USB interface.

Handle dst_get_neighbour_noref() returning NULL in ipoib_start_xmit()

Transitioning through an IEEE DCBX version from a CEE DCBX
and back (CEE->IEEE->CEE) may leave IEEE attributes programmed
in the hardware. DCB uses a bit field in the set routines to
determine which attributes PG, PFC, APP need to be reprogrammed.
This is needed because user flow allows queueing a series
of changes and then reprogramming the hardware with the
entire set in one operation.
When transitioning from IEEE DCBX mode back into CEE DCBX
mode the PG and PFC bits need to be set so the possibly
different CEE attributes get programmed into the device.
This patch fixes broken logic that was evaluating to 0
and never setting any bits. Further this removes some
checks for num_tc in set routines. This logic only worked
when the number of traffic classes and user priorities
were equal. This is no longer the case for X540 devices.
Besides we can trust user input in this case if the
device is incorrectly configured the DCB bandwidths will
be incorrectly mapped but no OOPs, BUG, or hardware
failure will occur.

driver:
Hitting the BUG_ON in napi_enable(). Code inspection shows that this can
only be triggered by calling napi_enable() twice without an intervening
napi_disable().
I saw the following sequence of events in the stack trace:
1) We simulated a cable pull using an Extreme switch.
2) e1000_tx_timeout() was entered.
3) e1000_reset_task() was called. Saw the message from e_err() in the
console log.
4) e1000_reinit_locked was called. This function calls e1000_down() and
e1000_up(). These functions call napi_disable() and napi_enable()
respectively.
5) Then on another thread, a monitor task saw carrier was down and executed
'ip set link down' and 'ip set link up' commands.
6) Saw the '_E1000_RESETTING'warning fron the e1000_close function.
7) Either the e1000_open() executed between the e1000_down() and e1000_up()
calls in step 4 or the e1000_open() call executed after the e1000_up()
call. In either case, napi_enable() is called twice which triggers the
BUG_ON.

We discovered that TCP stack could retransmit misaligned skbs if a
malicious peer acknowledged sub MSS frame. This currently can happen
only if output interface is non SG enabled : If SG is enabled, tcp
builds headless skbs (all payload is included in fragments), so the tcp
trimming process only removes parts of skb fragments, header stay
aligned.
Some arches cant handle misalignments, so force a head reallocation and
shrink headroom to MAX_TCP_HEADER.
Dont care about misaligments on x86 and PPC (or other arches setting

Open vSwitch is a multilayer Ethernet switch targeted at virtualized
environments. In addition to supporting a variety of features
expected in a traditional hardware switch, it enables fine-grained
programmatic extension and flow-based control of the network.
This control is useful in a wide variety of applications but is
particularly important in multi-server virtualization deployments,
which are often characterized by highly dynamic endpoints and the need
to maintain logical abstractions for multiple tenants.
The Open vSwitch datapath provides an in-kernel fast path for packet
forwarding. It is complemented by a userspace daemon, ovs-vswitchd,
which is able to accept configuration from a variety of sources and
translate it into packet processing rules.
See http://openvswitch.org for more information and userspace
utilities.

RED is useful for high throughput routers, I doubt many linux machines
act as such devices.
I was considering adding Adaptative RED (Sally Floyd, Ramakrishna
Gummadi, Scott Shender), August 2001
In this version, maxp is dynamic (from 1% to 50%), and user only have to
setup min_th (target average queue size)
(max_th and wq (burst in linux RED) are automatically setup)
By the way it seems we have a small bug in red_change()
if (skb_queue_empty(&sch->q))
red_end_of_idle_period(&q->parms);
First, if queue is empty, we should call
red_start_of_idle_period(&q->parms);
Second, since we dont use anymore sch->q, but q->qdisc, the test is
meaningless.
Oh well...
[PATCH] sch_red: fix red_change()
Now RED is classful, we must check q->qdisc->q.qlen, and if queue is empty,
we start an idle period, not end it.

The dqc_bitmap field of struct ocfs2_local_disk_chunk is 32-bit aligned,
but not 64-bit aligned. The dqc_bitmap is accessed by ocfs2_set_bit(),
ocfs2_clear_bit(), ocfs2_test_bit(), or ocfs2_find_next_zero_bit(). These
are wrapper macros for ext2_*_bit() which need to take an unsigned long
aligned address (though some architectures are able to handle unaligned
address correctly)
So some 64bit architectures may not be able to access the dqc_bitmap
correctly.
This avoids such unaligned access by using another wrapper functions for
ext2_*_bit(). The code is taken from fs/ext4/mballoc.c which also need to
handle unaligned bitmap access.
