2008-09-22wireless: zd1211rw: add device ID fix wifi dongle "trust nw-3100"born.into.silence@gmail.com
akpm: taken from http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11587 I bought the wifi dongle trust nw-3100 wich is in fact a zd1211rw. Its hardware id was missing in the sources, adding it made it work flawlessly.

2008-09-22ath9k: connectivity is lost after Group rekeying is doneSenthil Balasubramanian
Connectivtiy is lost after Group rekeying is done. The keytype maintained by ath9k is reset when group key is updated. Though sc_keytype can be reset only for broadcast key the proper fix would be to use mac80211 provided key type from txinfo during xmit and get rid of sc_keytype from ath9k ath_softc.

2008-09-22pcmcia: Fix broken abuse of dev->driver_dataAlan Cox
PCMCIA abuses dev->private_data in the probe methods. Unfortunately it continues to abuse it after calling drv->probe() which leads to crashes and other nasties (such as bogus probes of multifunction devices) giving errors like pcmcia: registering new device pcmcia0.1 kernel: 0.1: GetNextTuple: No more items Extract the passed data before calling the driver probe function that way we don't blow up when the driver reuses dev->private_data as its right. As its close to the final release just move the hack so it works out, hopefully someone will be sufficiently embarrassed to produce a nice rework for 2.6.28.

2008-09-22ipvs: Restrict sync message to 255 connectionsSven Wegener
The nr_conns variable in the sync message header is only eight bits wide and will overflow on interfaces with a large MTU. As a result the backup won't parse all connections contained in the sync buffer. On regular ethernet with an MTU of 1500 this isn't a problem, because we can't overflow the value, but consider jumbo frames being used on a cross-over connection between both directors. We now restrict the size of the sync buffer, so that we never put more than 255 connections into a single sync buffer.

2008-09-21tcp: advertise MSS requested by userTom Quetchenbach
I'm trying to use the TCP_MAXSEG option to setsockopt() to set the MSS for both sides of a bidirectional connection. man tcp says: "If this option is set before connection establishment, it also changes the MSS value announced to the other end in the initial packet." However, the kernel only uses the MTU/route cache to set the advertised MSS. That means if I set the MSS to, say, 500 before calling connect(), I will send at most 500-byte packets, but I will still receive 1500-byte packets in reply. This is a bug, either in the kernel or the documentation. This patch (applies to latest net-2.6) reduces the advertised value to that requested by the user as long as setsockopt() is called before connect() or accept(). This seems like the behavior that one would expect as well as that which is documented. I've tried to make sure that things that depend on the advertised MSS are set correctly.

2008-09-20multiq: requeue should rewind the current_bandAlexander Duyck

2008-09-20netdev: simple_tx_hash shouldn't hash inside fragmentsAlexander Duyck
Currently simple_tx_hash is hashing inside of udp fragments. As a result packets are getting getting sent to all queues when they shouldn't be. This causes a serious performance regression which can be seen by sending UDP frames larger than mtu on multiqueue devices. This change will make it so that fragments are hashed only as IP datagrams w/o any protocol information. Signed-off-by: Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.duyck@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-09-20sparc64: Fix disappearing PCI devices on e3500.David S. Miller
Based upon a bug report by Meelis Roos. The OF device layer builds properties by matching bus types and applying 'range' properties as appropriate, up to the root. The match for "PCI" busses is looking at the 'device_type' property, and this does work %99 of the time. But on an E3500 system with a PCI QFE card, the DEC 21153 bridge sitting above the QFE network interface devices has a 'name' of "pci", but it completely lacks a 'device_type' property. So we don't match it as a PCI bus, and subsequently we end up with no resource values at all for the devices sitting under that DEC bridge. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-09-20tcp: back retransmit_high when it over-estimatedIlpo Järvinen

2008-09-20tcp: don't clear lost_skb_hint when not necessaryIlpo Järvinen
Most importantly avoid doing it with cumulative ACK. However, since we have lost_cnt_hint in the picture as well needing adjustments, it's not as trivial as dealing with retransmit_skb_hint (and cannot be done in the all place we could trivially leave retransmit_skb_hint untouched). With the previous patch, this should mostly remove O(n^2) behavior while cumulative ACKs start flowing once rexmit after a lossy round-trip made it through.

2008-09-20tcp: Kill precaution that's very likely obsoleteIlpo Järvinen
I suspect it might have been related to the changed amount of lost skbs, which was counted by retransmit_cnt_hint that got changed.

2008-09-20tcp: convert retransmit_cnt_hint to seqnoIlpo Järvinen
Main benefit in this is that we can then freely point the retransmit_skb_hint to anywhere we want to because there's no longer need to know what would be the count changes involve, and since this is really used only as a terminator, unnecessary work is one time walk at most, and if some retransmissions are necessary after that point later on, the walk is not full waste of time anyway. Since retransmit_high must be kept valid, all lost markers must ensure that. Now I also have learned how those "holes" in the rexmittable skbs can appear, mtu probe does them. So I removed the misleading comment as well. Signed-off-by: Ilpo Järvinen <ilpo.jarvinen@helsinki.fi> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
