2011-05-22Add appropriate <linux/prefetch.h> include for prefetch usersPaul Gortmaker
After discovering that wide use of prefetch on modern CPUs could be a net loss instead of a win, net drivers which were relying on the implicit inclusion of prefetch.h via the list headers showed up in the resulting cleanup fallout.

In doing this, it completes the work begun in ae54496f9e8d40c89e5668205c181dccfa9ecda1 allowing the use of hardware VLAN insertion without having a VLAN group configured.

2010-12-16net: Fix drivers advertising HW_CSUM feature to use csum_startMichał Mirosław
Some drivers are using skb_transport_offset(skb) instead of skb->csum_start for NETIF_F_HW_CSUM offload. This does not matter now, but if someone implements checksumming of encapsulated packets then this will break silently. TSO output paths are left as they are, since they are for IP+TCP only (might be worth converting though). Signed-off-by: Michał Mirosław <mirq-linux@rere.qmqm.pl> Signed-off-by: David S.

2010-12-12drivers/net: don't use flush_scheduled_work()Tejun Heo
flush_scheduled_work() is on its way out. This patch contains simple conversions to replace flush_scheduled_work() usage with direct cancels and flushes. Directly cancel the used works on driver detach and flush them in other cases. The conversions are mostly straight forward and the only dangers are, * Forgetting to cancel/flush one or more used works. * Cancelling when a work should be flushed (ie. the work must be executed once scheduled whether the driver is detaching or not). I've gone over the changes multiple times but it would be much appreciated if you can review with the above points in mind. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: "David S.

2010-08-08e100/e1000*/igb*/ixgb*: Add missing read memory barrierJeff Kirsher
Based on patches from Sonny Rao and Milton Miller... Combined the patches to fix up clean_tx_irq and clean_rx_irq. The PowerPC architecture does not require loads to independent bytes to be ordered without adding an explicit barrier. In ixgbe_clean_rx_irq we load the status bit then load the packet data. With packet split disabled if these loads go out of order we get a stale packet, but we will notice the bad sequence numbers and drop it. The problem occurs with packet split enabled where the TCP/IP header and data are in different descriptors. If the reads go out of order we may have data that doesn't match the TCP/IP header. Since we use hardware checksumming this bad data is never verified and it makes it all the way to the application. This bug was found during stress testing and adding this barrier has been shown to fix it. The bug can manifest as a data integrity issue (bad payload data) or as a BUG in skb_pull(). This was a nasty bug to hunt down, if people agree with the fix I think it's a candidate for stable. Previously Submitted to e1000-devel only for ixgbe http://marc.info/?l=e1000-devel&m=126593062701537&w=3 We've now seen this problem hit with other device drivers (e1000e mostly) So I'm resubmitting with fixes for other Intel Device Drivers with similar issues.
