2011-09-16ethtool: Clean up definitions of rule location arrays in RX NFCBen Hutchings
Correct the description of ethtool_rxnfc::rule_locs; it is an array of currently used locations, not all possible valid locations. Add note that drivers must not use ethtool_rxnfc::rule_locs. The rule_locs argument to ethtool_ops::get_rxnfc is either NULL or a pointer to an array of u32, so change the parameter type accordingly.

2011-09-16ethtool: Explicitly state that RX NFC rule locations are prioritiesBen Hutchings
The location of an RX flow classification rule is needed to identify it for retrieval, replacement or deletion. However it also defines the priority of the rule in the case that a flow is matched by multiple rules. This is what I intended to imply by referring to the use of a TCAM, commonly used to implement that behaviour. However there are other ways this can be done, and it is better to specify this explicitly. Further, I want to add the option for automatic selection of rule locations.

2011-09-16ipv6: Send ICMPv6 RSes only when RAs are acceptedTore Anderson
This patch improves the logic determining when to send ICMPv6 Router Solicitations, so that they are 1) always sent when the kernel is accepting Router Advertisements, and 2) never sent when the kernel is not accepting RAs. In other words, the operational setting of the "accept_ra" sysctl is used. The change also makes the special "Hybrid Router" forwarding mode ("forwarding" sysctl set to 2) operate exactly the same as the standard Router mode (forwarding=1). The only difference between the two was that RSes was being sent in the Hybrid Router mode only. The sysctl documentation describing the special Hybrid Router mode has therefore been removed. Rationale for the change: Currently, the value of forwarding sysctl is the only thing determining whether or not to send RSes. If it has the value 0 or 2, they are sent, otherwise they are not. This leads to inconsistent behaviour in the following cases: * accept_ra=0, forwarding=0 * accept_ra=0, forwarding=2 * accept_ra=1, forwarding=2 * accept_ra=2, forwarding=1 In the first three cases, the kernel will send RSes, even though it will not accept any RAs received in reply. In the last case, it will not send any RSes, even though it will accept and process any RAs received. (Most routers will send unsolicited RAs periodically, so suppressing RSes in the last case will merely delay auto-configuration, not prevent it.) Also, it is my opinion that having the forwarding sysctl control RS sending behaviour (completely independent of whether RAs are being accepted or not) is simply not what most users would intuitively expect to be the case.

2011-09-16can-gw: add netlink based CAN routingOliver Hartkopp
This patch adds a CAN Gateway/Router to route (and modify) CAN frames. It is based on the PF_CAN core infrastructure for msg filtering and msg sending and can optionally modify routed CAN frames on the fly. CAN frames can *only* be routed between CAN network interfaces (one hop). They can be modified with AND/OR/XOR/SET operations as configured by the netlink configuration interface known e.g. from iptables. From the netlink view this can-gw implements RTM_{NEW|DEL|GET}ROUTE for PF_CAN. The CAN specific userspace tool to manage CAN routing entries can be found in the CAN utils http://svn.berlios.de/wsvn/socketcan/trunk/can-utils/cangw.c at the SocketCAN SVN on BerliOS.

2011-09-16sctp: deal with multiple COOKIE_ECHO chunksMax Matveev
Attempt to reduce the number of IP packets emitted in response to single SCTP packet (2e3216cd) introduced a complication - if a packet contains two COOKIE_ECHO chunks and nothing else then SCTP state machine corks the socket while processing first COOKIE_ECHO and then loses the association and forgets to uncork the socket. To deal with the issue add new SCTP command which can be used to set association explictly. Use this new command when processing second COOKIE_ECHO chunk to restore the context for SCTP state machine. Signed-off-by: Max Matveev <makc@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2011-09-16sfc: Use correct fields of struct ethtool_coalesceBen Hutchings
An earlier developer misunderstood the meaning of the 'irq' fields and the driver did not support the standard fields. To avoid invalidating existing user documentation, we report and accept changes through either the standard or 'irq' fields. If both are changed at the same time, we prefer the standard field. Also explain why we don't currently use the 'max_frames' fields. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The reported TX IRQ moderation is generated in a completely crazy way. Make it simple and correct.

Allow it to be either specified as the same, or left at its previous value in which case it will be quietly overridden.
