Eric Dumazet 1fdf475aa1 tcp: tcp_disconnect() should clear window_clamp
NFS can reuse its TCP socket after calling tcp_disconnect().

We noticed window scaling was not negotiated in SYN packet of next
connection request.

Fix is to clear tp->window_clamp in tcp_disconnect().

and other parts were already present in the original

  Author: Ron Rindjunsky <ron.rindjunsky@intel.com>
  Date:   Mon Jan 28 14:07:22 2008 +0200

      mac80211: A-MPDU Tx add delBA from recipient support

The first problem is that I moved a BUG_ON before various
checks -- thereby making it possible to hit. As the comment
indicates, the BUG_ON can be removed since the ampdu_action
callback must already exist when the state is != IDLE.

The second problem isn't easily exploitable but there's a
race condition due to unconditionally setting the state to
OPERATIONAL when a delBA frame is received, even when no
aggregation session was ever initiated. All the drivers
accept stopping the session even then, but that opens a
race window where crashes could happen before the driver
accepts it. Right now, a WARN_ON may happen with non-HT
drivers, while the race opens only for HT drivers.

For this case, there are two things necessary to fix it:
 1) don't process spurious delBA frames, and be more careful
    about the session state; don't drop the lock

 2) HT drivers need to be prepared to handle a session stop
    even before the session was really started -- this is
    true for all drivers (that support aggregation) but
    iwlwifi which can be fixed easily. The other HT drivers
    (ath9k and ar9170) are behaving properly already.

A similar code path leads to a WARN_ON in

Fixes kernel bugzilla #14691

Due to the way netpoll works, it is perfectly legal to see
NAPI already scheduled when new device events are pending
in b44_interrupt().

So logging a message about it is wrong and in fact harmful.

Russell King - ARM Linux d5ccd67bb7 NET: smc91x: Fix irq flags
smc91x.h defines SMC_IRQ_FLAGS to be -1 when it wants the interrupt
flags to be taken from the resource structure.  However, d280ead
changed this to checking for non-zero resource flags.

Unfortunately, this means that on some platforms, we end up passing
'-1' to request_irq rather than the desired result.  Combine the two
conditions into one so that the IRQ flags are taken from the resource
if either SMC_IRQ_FLAGS is -1 or the resource flags specify an
interrupt trigger.

This restores network on at least the Versatile platform.

The newer chipsets (all PCI-E) are known that they need full power cycle
(AC or battery removal) to reset MAC address to a  hardwired one. Previous
patch to address this problem loads the original MAC address from EEPROM.
But it brought other problem for which it is necessary to introduce a new
module parameter.
However, it might suffice to restore the initial MAC address before
shutdown/reboot/kexec and when removing the module.

ipv4 ip_frag_reasm(), fully replace 'dev_net(dev)' with 'net', defined
previously patched into 2.6.29.

Between 2.6.28.10 and 2.6.29, net/ipv4/ip_fragment.c was patched,
changing from dev_net(dev) to container_of(...).  Unfortunately the goto
section (out_fail) on oversized packets inside ip_frag_reasm() didn't
get touched up as well.  Oversized IP packets cause a NULL pointer
dereference and immediate hang.

with some significant changes:

- Two ports are associated with two independent PCI functions
  (except SFC9010)
- Integrated 10GBASE-T PHY(s) (SFL9021/9022)
- MAC, PHY and board peripherals are managed by firmware
  - Driver does not require board-specific code
  - Firmware supports wake-on-LAN and lights-out management through NC-SI
- IPv6 checksum offload and RSS
- Filtering by MAC address and VLAN (not included in this code)
- PCI SR-IOV (not included in this code)

Ben Hutchings 89c758fa47 sfc: Add power-management and wake-on-LAN support
Wake-on-LAN is a stub for Falcon, but will be implemented fully for
new NICs.

Use the efx_nic_type::monitor operation or event handling as
appropriate.

Ben Hutchings d3245b28ef sfc: Refactor link configuration
Refactor PHY, MAC and NIC configuration operations so that the
existing link configuration can be re-pushed with:

	efx->phy_op->reconfigure(efx);
	efx->mac_op->reconfigure(efx);

and a new configuration with:

	efx->nic_op->reconfigure_port(efx);

(plus locking and error-checking).

We have not held the link settings in software (aside from flow
control), and have relied on asking the hardware what they are.  This
is a problem because in some cases the hardware may no longer be in a
state to tell us.  In particular, if an entire multi-port board is
reset through one port, the driver bindings to other ports have no
chance to save settings before recovering.

We only actually need to keep track of the autonegotiation settings,
so add an ethtool advertising mask to struct efx_nic, initialise it
in PHY init and update it as necessary.

Remove now-unneeded uses of efx_phy_op::{get,set}_settings() and
struct ethtool_cmd.

Much of this was done by Steve Hodgson <shodgson@solarflare.com>.
