can: CAN Network device driver and Netlink interface
The CAN network device driver interface provides a generic interface to
setup, configure and monitor CAN network devices. It exports a set of
common data structures and functions, which all real CAN network device
drivers should use. Please have a look to the SJA1000 or MSCAN driver
to understand how to use them. The name of the module is can-dev.ko.
Furthermore, it adds a Netlink interface allowing to configure the CAN
device using the program "ip" from the iproute2 utility suite.

We could move away stats field in net_device but it wont help that much.
(Two cache lines dirtied in tx path, we can do one only)
Better solution is to add tx_packets/tx_bytes/tx_dropped in struct
netdev_queue because this structure is already touched in tx path and
counters updates will then be free (no increase in size)

If we can find a type NETDEV_HW_ADDR_T_SAN mac address from the
corresponding netdev for a fcoe interface then sets up added the
fc->ctlr.spma flag and stores spma mode address in ctl_src_addr.
In case the spma flag is set then:-
1. Adds spma mode MAC address in ctl_src_addr as secondary
MAC address, the FLOGI for FIP and pre-FIP will go out
using this address.
2. Cleans up stored spma MAC address in ctl_src_addr in
fcoe_netdev_cleanup.
3. Sets up spma bit in fip_flags for FIP solicitations along
with exiting FPMA bit setting.
4. Initialize the FLOGI FIP MAC descriptor to stored spma
MAC address in ctl_src_addr. This is used as proposed
FCoE MAC address from initiator along with both SPMA
and FPMA bit set in FIP solicitation, in response the
switch may grant any FPMA or SPMA mode MAC address to
initiator.
Removes FIP descriptor type checking against ELS type
ELS_FLOGI in fcoe_ctlr_encaps to update a FIP MAC descriptor,
instead now checks against FIP_DT_FLOGI.
I've tested this with available FPMA-only FCoE switch but
since data_src_addr is updated using same old code for
both FPMA and SPMA modes with FIP or pre-FIP links, so added

fcoe: consolidates netdev related config and cleanup for spma mode
Currently fcoe_netdev_config adds netdev pkt handler for fcoe pkts,
fcoe_if_create adds netdev pkt handler for fip packets, a secondary

for these netdev related config/adds is done only during
fcoe_if_destroy and no cleanup done on error during fcoe interface
creation after above netdev config calling in fcoe_if_create.
So this patch adds single func for above mentioned cleanup the
fcoe_netdev_cleanup and then calls this func on either fcoe interface
destroy or exiting from fcoe_if_create due to an error after fcoe/fip
related above netdev config is done.
Moved netdev pkt handler addition code blocks for fip pkts close to
similar code block for foce pkt in fcoe_netdev_config, so that added
fcoe_netdev_cleanup could be called on error from fcoe_netdev_config
to undo these both additions for fcoe/fip pkt handlers. This move
required reference to fcoe_fip_recv in fcoe_netdev_config, so moved
fip related functions fcoe_fip_recv, fcoe_fip_send and
fcoe_update_src_mac above fcoe_netdev_config.

net: tx scalability works : trans_start
struct net_device trans_start field is a hot spot on SMP and high performance
devices, particularly multi queues ones, because every transmitter dirties
it. Is main use is tx watchdog and bonding alive checks.
But as most devices dont use NETIF_F_LLTX, we have to lock
a netdev_queue before calling their ndo_start_xmit(). So it makes
sense to move trans_start from net_device to netdev_queue. Its update
will occur on a already present (and in exclusive state) cache line, for
free.
We can do this transition smoothly. An old driver continue to
update dev->trans_start, while an updated one updates txq->trans_start.

bnx2: bnx2_tx_int() optimizations
When using bnx2 in a high transmit load, bnx2_tx_int() cost is pretty high.
There are two reasons.
One is an expensive call to bnx2_get_hw_tx_cons(bnapi) for each freed skb
One is cpu stalls when accessing skb_is_gso(skb) / skb_shinfo(skb)->nr_frags
because of two cache line misses.
(One to get skb->end/head to compute skb_shinfo(skb),
one to get is_gso/nr_frags)
This patch :
1) avoids calling bnx2_get_hw_tx_cons(bnapi) too many times.
2) makes bnx2_start_xmit() cache is_gso & nr_frags into sw_tx_bd descriptor.
This uses a litle bit more ram (256 longs per device on x86), but helps a lot.
3) uses a prefetch(&skb->end) to speedup dev_kfree_skb(), bringing
cache line that will be needed in skb_release_data()
result is 5 % bandwidth increase in benchmarks, involving UDP or TCP receive
& transmits, when a cpu is dedicated to ksoftirqd for bnx2.
bnx2_tx_int going from 3.33 % cpu to 0.5 % cpu in oprofile

not related to bnx2 (2.9 % of cpu, while it does nothing on x86_32)

iwlwifi: fix PS disable status race
iwlwifi internally needs to keep track of whether PS
is enabled in the firmware or not. To do this, it keeps
a bit in the status flags, called STATUS_POWER_PMI.
if (final_mode == IWL_POWER_INDEX_5)
cmd.flags |= IWL_POWER_FAST_PD;
ret = iwl_set_power(priv, &cmd);
if (final_mode == IWL_POWER_MODE_CAM)

if (priv->cfg->ops->lib->update_chain_flags && update_chains)
priv->cfg->ops->lib->update_chain_flags(priv);
[...]
}
Now, this bit really needs to track what the _firmware_
thinks, not what the driver thinks. Therefore, there is
a race condition here -- the driver sets the bit before
it knows that the async command sent to the card in the
iwl_set_power function has been processed. As a result,
the call to update_chain_flags() may think that the card
has been woken up (PMI bit cleared) while in reality it
hasn't processed the async POWER_TABLE_CMD yet.
This leads to bugs -- any commands the update_chain_flags
function sends can get stuck and subsequent commands also
fail.
The fix is almost trivial: since there's no reason to send
an async command here (in fact, there almost never should
be since many mac80211 callbacks can sleep) just make the
function wait for the card to process the command and then
return and clear the PMI bit.

allows ieee80211_drop_unencrypted() to correctly drop frames even if
drop_unencrypted is not set.
The changes here are not enough to handle all cases, though. Additional
patches will be needed to implement proper IEEE 802.1X PAE for station

In theory, the unprotected frames could and should be dropped in
ieee80211_rx_h_decrypt(). However, due to the special case with EAPOL
frames that have to be allowed to be received unprotected even when
keys are set, it is simpler to only set rx->key and allow the

mac80211: fix scan channel race
When a software scan starts, it first sets sw_scanning, but
leaves the scan_channel "unset" (it currently actually gets
initialised to a default). Now, when something else tries
to (re)configure the hardware in the window between these two
events (after sw_scanning = true, but before scan_channel is
set), the current code switches to the (unset!) scan_channel.
This causes trouble, especially when switching bands and
sending frames on the wrong channel.
To work around this, leave scan_channel initialised to NULL
and use it to determine whether or not a switch to a different
channel should occur (and also use the same condition to check
whether to adjust power for scan or not).
Additionally, avoid reconfiguring the hardware completely when
recalculating idle resulted in no changes, this was the problem
that originally led us to discover the race condition in the
first place, which was helpfully bisected by Pavel. This part
of the patch should not be necessary with the other fixes, but
not calling the ieee80211_hw_config function when we know it to
be unnecessary is certainly a correct thing to do.
Unfortunately, this patch cannot and does not fix the race
condition completely, but due to the way the scan code is
structured it makes the particular problem Pavel discovered
(race while changing channel at the same time as transmitting
frames) go away. To fix it completely, more work especially
