net, drivers/net: Convert compare_ether_addr_64bits to ether_addr_equal_64bits

2012-05-11T03:33:01Z

Use the new bool function ether_addr_equal_64bits to add some clarity and reduce the likelihood for misuse of compare_ether_addr_64bits for sorting.

Revert "net: maintain namespace isolation between vlan and real device"

2012-05-11T03:03:34Z

This reverts commit 8a83a00b0735190384a348156837918271034144. It causes regressions for S390 devices, because it does an unconditional DST drop on SKBs for vlans and the QETH device needs the neighbour entry hung off the DST for certain things on transmit. Arnd can't remember exactly why he even needed this change. Conflicts: drivers/net/macvlan.c net/8021q/vlan_dev.c net/core/dev.c Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

macvlan: add FDB bridge ops and macvlan flags

2012-04-15T17:06:05Z

This adds FDB bridge ops to the macvlan device passthru mode. Additionally a flags field was added and a NOPROMISC bit to allow users to use passthru mode without the driver calling dev_set_promiscuity(). The flags field is a u16 placed in a 4 byte hole (consuming 2 bytes) of the macvlan_dev struct. We want to do this so that the macvlan driver or stack above the macvlan driver does not have to process every packet. For the use case where we know all the MAC addresses of the endstations above us this works well. This patch is a result of Roopa Prabhu's work. Follow up patches are needed for VEPA and VEB macvlan modes. v2: Change from distinct nopromisc mode to a flags field to configure this. This avoids the tendency to add a new mode every time we need some slightly different behavior. v3: fix error in dev_set_promiscuity and add change and get link attributes for flags.

macvlan: Stop using NLA_PUT*().

2012-04-02T08:33:43Z

These macros contain a hidden goto, and are thus extremely error prone and make code hard to audit. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: use eth_hw_addr_random() and reset addr_assign_type

2012-02-15T20:34:17Z

Use eth_hw_addr_random() instead of calling random_ether_addr() to set addr_assign_type correctly to NET_ADDR_RANDOM. Reset the state to NET_ADDR_PERM as soon as the MAC get changed via .ndo_set_mac_address. v2: adapt to renamed eth_hw_addr_random() Signed-off-by: Danny Kukawka Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

macvlan: fix a possible use after free

2012-01-23T18:56:18Z

Commit bc416d9768 (macvlan: handle fragmented multicast frames) added a possible use after free in macvlan_handle_frame(), since ip_check_defrag() uses pskb_may_pull() : skb header can be reallocated. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Cc: Ben Greear Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
