2010-07-02sched: qdisc_reset_all_tx is calling qdisc_reset without qdisc_lockJohn Fastabend
When calling qdisc_reset() the qdisc lock needs to be held. In this case there is at least one driver i4l which is using this without holding the lock. Add the locking here.

"Flush" request can come from two different sources, it can either from mac80211, or from device when the operation is needed. Here adding the support for device issue "flush" request. When receive tx complete with status is TX_STATUS_FAIL_RFKILL_FLUSH, issue REPLY_TXFIFO_FLUSH command to uCode to flush out all the tx frames in queues. In this condition, since mac80211 has no knowledge of "flush" operation, driver need to stop all the tx queues and wait for the operation completed before wake up the queues for frames transmission.

fw_restart module parameter was broken by the recent check for stuck queue patch, driver check the fx_restart module parameter before reload the firmware; but the stuck queue timer kick in after firmware error and reload the firmware even fw_restart=0. In this case, driver should not reload the firmware, it is important to help debugging uCode error.

2010-07-02iwlwifi: remove key information during device restartReinette Chatre
When there is a firmware error or the firmware is reloaded for some other reason we currently clear all station information, including keys associated with them. A problem is that we do not clear some other information regarding keys that are not stored in the station structs. The consequence of this is that when the device is reconfigured after the firmware reload we can, among other things, run out of key indices.

2010-07-01igb: Use only a single Tx queue in SR-IOV modeGreg Rose
The 82576 expects the second rx queue in any pool to receive L2 switch loop back packets sent from the second tx queue in another pool. The 82576 VF driver does not enable the second rx queue so if the PF driver sends packets destined to a VF from its second tx queue then the VF driver will never see them. In SR-IOV mode limit the number of tx queues used by the PF driver to one. This patch fixes a bug reported in which the PF cannot communciate with the VF and should be considered for 2.6.34 stable.

2010-06-30bonding: check if clients MAC addr has changedFlavio Leitner
When two systems using bonding devices in adaptive load balancing (ALB) communicates with each other, an endless ping-pong of ARP replies starts between these two systems. What happens? In the ALB mode, bonding driver keeps track of each client connected in a hash table, so it can do the receive load balancing (RLB). This hash table is updated when an ARP reply is received, then it scans for the client entry, updates its MAC address and flag it to be announced later. Therefore, two seconds later, the alb monitor runs and send for each updated client entry two ARP replies updating this specific client. The same process happens on the receiving system, causing the endless ping-pong of arp replies. See more information including the relevant functions below: System 1 System 2 bond0 bond0 ping <system2> ARP request ---------> <--------- ARP reply +->rlb_arp_recv <---------------------+ <--- loop begins | rlb_update_entry_from_arp | | client_info->ntt = 1; | | bond_info->rx_ntt = 1; | | | | <communication succeed> | | | | bond_alb_monitor | | rlb_update_rx_clients | | rlb_update_client | | arp_create(ARPOP_REPLY) | | send ARP reply --------------> V | send ARP reply --------------> | rlb_arp_recv | rlb_update_entry_from_arp | client_info->ntt = 1; | bond_info->rx_ntt = 1; | < snipped, same as in system 1> +------- <-------------- send ARP reply <-------------- send ARP reply Besides the unneeded networking traffic, this loop breaks a cluster because a backup system can't take over the IP address. There is always one system sending an ARP reply poisoning the network. This patch fixes the problem adding a check for the MAC address before updating it. Thus, if the MAC address didn't change, there is no need to update neither to announce it later.
