net/macb: fix race with RX interrupt while doing NAPI

2013-02-13T18:34:10Z

When interrupts are disabled, an RX condition can occur but it is not reported when enabling interrupts again. We need to check RSR and use napi_reschedule() if condition is met. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Ferre Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

it is reported that code hit DMA-API errors on 3.8-rc6+, (see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=908436, and https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=908550) this patch just adds error handler for pci_map_single and skb_frag_dma_map. Signed-off-by: xiong Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ixgbe: Only set gso_type to SKB_GSO_TCPV4 as RSC does not support IPv6

2013-02-12T21:07:19Z

The original fix that was applied for setting gso_type required more change than necessary because it was assumed ixgbe does RSC on IPv6 frames and this is not correct. RSC is only supported with IPv4/TCP frames only. As such we can simplify the fix and avoid the unnecessary move of eth_type_trans. The previous patch "ixgbe: fix gso type" and this patch reduce the entire fix to one line that sets gso_type to TCPV4 if the frame is RSC. Signed-off-by: Alexander Duyck Signed-off-by: David S.

bnx2x: set gso_type

2013-02-11T01:14:13Z

In LRO mode, bnx2x set gso_size but not gso type. This leads to crashes in macvtap. Commit cbf1de72324a8105ddcc3d9ce9acbc613faea17e queued for 3.9 includes a more complete fix. This is a minimal patch to avoid the crash, for 3.8. Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin Acked-by: Dmitry Kravkov Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
