Jeff Kirsher says:
====================
This series contains updates to e1000e, ixgbe and ixgbevf.
Majority of the changes are against e1000e (from Bruce Allan).
Bruce adds additional error handling on PHY register access, as
well as improve slow performance on 82579 when connected to a
10Mbit hub. In addition, fixes LED blink logic for cathode
LED design. Most notable is added EEE support which is enabled
by default and the added support for LTR on I217/I218.
The ixgbe and ixgbevf from Greg Rose changes the VM so that if a user
does not assign a MAC address, the MAC address is set to all zeros
instead of a random MAC address. This ensures that we always know when
we have a random address and udev won't get upset about it.

Some network drivers use a non default hard_header_len
Transmitted skb should take into account dev->hard_header_len, or risk
crashes or expensive reallocations.
In the case of aoe, lets reserve MAX_HEADER bytes.
David reported a crash in defxx driver, solved by this patch.

Alex Romosan reported that since the mac80211 changes in
"mac80211: start auth/assoc timeout on frame status" and
the subsequent fixes in "mac80211: fix auth/assoc timeout
handling" (commits 1672c0e31917 and 89afe614c0c) there's
sometimes an issue connecting to a 5 GHz network with the
iwlwifi DVM driver.
The reason appears to be that since these commits any bad
TX status makes mac80211 immediately try again, causing
all of the authentication attempts to be quickly rejected
by the firmware as it hasn't heard a beacon yet. Before,
it would wait for the timeout regardless of status.
To fix this, invoke the passive-no-RX workaround when not
associated yet as well. This will cause the first frame
to get lost, but then the driver will stop the queues and
the second attempt will only be transmitted after hearing
a beacon, thus delaying it appropriately to not make the
firmware reject it again.

The previous commit ce43a2168c59bc47b5f0c1825fd5f9a2a9e3b447 (e1000e:
cleanup USLEEP_RANGE checkpatch checks) converted a number of delays and
sleeps as recommended in ./Documentation/timers/timers-howto.txt.
Unfortunately, a few of the udelay() to usleep_range() conversions are in
code paths that are in an atomic context in which usleep_range() should
not be used. Revert those specific changes.

Set the Latency Tolerance Reporting (LTR) values for the "PCIe-like"
GbE MAC in the Lynx Point PCH based on Rx buffer size and link speed
when link is up (which must not exceed the maximum latency supported
by the platform), otherwise specify there is no LTR requirement.
Unlike true-PCIe devices which set the LTR maximum snoop/no-snoop
latencies in the LTR Extended Capability Structure in the PCIe Extended
Capability register set, on this device LTR is set by writing the
equivalent snoop/no-snoop latencies in the LTRV register in the MAC and
set the SEND bit to send an Intel On-chip System Fabric sideband (IOSF-SB)
message to the PMC.

Devices supported by the driver which support EEE (currently 82579, I217
and I218) are advertising EEE capabilities during auto-negotiation even
when EEE has been disabled. In addition to not acting as expected, this
also caused the EEE status reported by 'ethtool --show-eee' to be wrong
when two of these devices are connected back-to-back and EEE is disabled
on one. In addition to fixing this issue, the ability for the user to
specify which speeds (100 or 1000 full-duplex) to advertise EEE support
has been added.

When the MAC and PHY are in two different modes (different power levels
and interconnect speeds), it could take a long time before a PHY register
access timed out using the existing MAC-PHY interconnect configuration
coded into the driver for ICH- and PCH-based LOMs. Introduce an I217/I218-
specific .setup_physical_interface operation which does not override the
interconnect configuration in the NVM.

Two 82579 LOMs connected via a 10Mb hub experience extraordinarily low
performance. This is because 82579 is excessively aggressive on transmit
at 10Mb half-duplex and will not provide sufficient time for the link
partner to transmit. When the link partner is also 82579, the result is a
lot of collisions (and corresponding re-transmits) that cause the poor
performance. To work-around this issue, significantly increase the IPG in
the MAC to allow enough gap for the link partner to transmit and reduce the
Rx latency in the analog PHY to 0 to reduce the number of collisions.

are Ethernet II.
Also update all the users of this value that David Miller and

Also correct a bug in util.c. The comparison with ETH_P_802_3_MIN
should be >= not >.

Marc Kleine-Budde says:
====================
here's a patch series for net for the v3.9 release cycle. Fengguang Wu found
two problems with the sja1000 drivers:
A macro in the SH architecture collides with one in the sja1000 driver. I
created a minimal patch suited for stable, only changing this particular
define. (Once net is merged back to net-next, I'll post a patch to uniformly
use a SJA1000_ prefix for the sja100 private defines.) If you prefer, I can
squash both patches together.
Fengguang further noticed that the peak pcmcia driver will not compile on archs
without ioport support. I created a patch to limit the driver to archs which
select HAS_IOPORT in Kconfig.

Commit 184b89044fb6e2a74611dafa69b1dce0d98612c6 ("tg3: Use VPD fw version

overflow.
Limit the hardware's reported firmware string length (max 255 bytes) to
stay inside the driver's firmware string length (32 bytes). On overflow,
truncate the formatted firmware string instead of potentially overwriting
portions of the tg3 struct.

In unmask_evtchn(), when the mask bit is cleared after testing for
pending and the event becomes pending between the test and clear, then
the upcall will not become pending and the event may be lost or
delayed.
Avoid this by always clearing the mask bit before checking for
pending. If a hypercall is needed, remask the event as
EVTCHNOP_unmask will only retrigger pending events if they were
masked.
This fixes a regression introduced in 3.7 by
b5e579232d635b79a3da052964cb357ccda8d9ea (xen/events: fix
unmask_evtchn for PV on HVM guests) which reordered the clear mask and
