r6040: fix multicast operations

2011-03-08T22:21:50Z

The original code does not work well when the number of mulitcast address to handle is greater than MCAST_MAX. It only enable promiscous mode instead of multicast hash table mode, so the hash table function will not be activated and all multicast frames will be recieved in this condition. This patch fixes the following issues with the r6040 NIC operating in multicast: 1) When the IFF_ALLMULTI flag is set, we should write 0xffff to the NIC hash table registers to make it process multicast traffic. 2) When the number of multicast address to handle is smaller than MCAST_MAX, we should use the NIC multicast registers MID1_{L,M,H}. 3) The hashing of the address was not correct, due to an invalid substraction (15 - (crc & 0x0f)) instead of (crc & 0x0f) and an incorrect crc algorithm (ether_crc_le) instead of (ether_crc). 4) If necessary, we should set HASH_EN flag in MCR0 to enable multicast hash table function.

bonding 802.3ad: Rename rx_machine_lock to state_machine_lock

2011-03-08T00:02:18Z

Rename the rx_machine_lock to state_machine_lock as this makes more sense in light of it now protecting all the state machines against concurrency. Signed-off-by: Nils Carlson Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

bonding 802.3ad: Fix the state machine locking v2

2011-03-08T00:02:17Z

Changes since v1: * Clarify an unclear comment * Move a (possible) name change to a separate patch The ad_rx_machine, ad_periodic_machine and ad_port_selection_logic functions all inspect and alter common fields within the port structure. Previous to this patch, only the ad_rx_machines were mutexed, and the periodic and port_selection could run unmutexed against an ad_rx_machine trigged by an arriving LACPDU. This patch remedies the situation by protecting all the state machines from concurrency. This is accomplished by locking around all the state machines for a given port, which are executed at regular intervals; and the ad_rx_machine when handling an incoming LACPDU.

net/smsc911x.c: Set the VLAN1 register to fix VLAN MTU problem

2011-03-07T20:30:12Z

The smsc911x driver would drop frames longer than 1518 bytes, which is a problem for networks with VLAN tagging. The VLAN1 tag register is used to increase the legal frame size to 1522 when a VLAN tag is identified. Signed-off-by: Göran Weinholt Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
