net: fix problem in reading sock TX queue
Fix problem in reading the tx_queue recorded in a socket. In
dev_pick_tx, the TX queue is read by doing a check with
sk_tx_queue_recorded on the socket, followed by a sk_tx_queue_get.
The problem is that there is not mutual exclusion across these
calls in the socket so it it is possible that the queue in the
sock can be invalidated after sk_tx_queue_recorded is called so
that sk_tx_queue get returns -1, which sets 65535 in queue_index
and thus dev_pick_tx returns 65536 which is a bogus queue and
can cause crash in dev_queue_xmit.
We fix this by only calling sk_tx_queue_get which does the proper
checks. The interface is that sk_tx_queue_get returns the TX queue
if the sock argument is non-NULL and TX queue is recorded, else it
returns -1. sk_tx_queue_recorded is no longer used so it can be
completely removed.

net: skb_tx_hash() fix relative to skb_orphan_try()
commit
fc6055a5ba31e2 (net: Introduce skb_orphan_try()) added early
orphaning of skbs.
This unfortunately added a performance regression in skb_tx_hash() in
case of stacked devices (bonding, vlans, ...)
Since skb->sk is now NULL, we cannot access sk->sk_hash anymore to
spread tx packets to multiple NIC queues on multiqueue devices.
skb_tx_hash() in this case only uses skb->protocol, same value for all
flows.
skb_orphan_try() can copy sk->sk_hash into skb->rxhash and skb_tx_hash()
can use this saved sk_hash value to compute its internal hash value.

been received, possibly higher than the number of packets received.
The driver software counters are replaced with the adapter hardware
statistics for rx_packets, rx_bytes, and tx_bytes. It also uses the
overflow registers to determine if the statistics wrapped the 32bit
register (removing the window of having a statistic value less than the

ping-pong of ARP replies starts between these two systems.
What happens? In the ALB mode, bonding driver keeps track
of each client connected in a hash table, so it can do the
receive load balancing (RLB). This hash table is updated
when an ARP reply is received, then it scans for the client
entry, updates its MAC address and flag it to be announced
later. Therefore, two seconds later, the alb monitor runs
and send for each updated client entry two ARP replies
updating this specific client. The same process happens on
the receiving system, causing the endless ping-pong of arp
replies.
See more information including the relevant functions below:
System 1 System 2
bond0 bond0

<--------- ARP reply
+->rlb_arp_recv <---------------------+ <--- loop begins
| rlb_update_entry_from_arp |

| client_info->ntt = 1;
| bond_info->rx_ntt = 1;
| < snipped, same as in system 1>
+------- <-------------- send ARP reply
<-------------- send ARP reply
Besides the unneeded networking traffic, this loop breaks
a cluster because a backup system can't take over the IP
address. There is always one system sending an ARP reply
poisoning the network.
This patch fixes the problem adding a check for the MAC
address before updating it. Thus, if the MAC address didn't
change, there is no need to update neither to announce it later.

broke multicast. The reason, it turns out, is that
the code previously checked if ALLMULTI _changed_,
which the new code no longer did, and normally it
_never_ changes. Had somebody changed it manually,
the code prior to my patch there would have been
broken already.
The reason is that we always, unconditionally, ask
the device to pass up all multicast frames, but the
new code made it depend on ALLMULTI which broke it
since now we'd pass up multicast frames depending
on the default filter in the device, which isn't
necessarily what we want (since we don't program it
right now).
Fix this by simply not checking allmulti as we have
allmulti behaviour enabled already anyway.

bnx2: fix dma_get_ops compilation breakage
This removes dma_get_ops() prefetch optimization in bnx2.
bnx2 uses dma_get_ops() to see if dma_sync_single_for_cpu() is
noop. bnx2 does prefetch if it's noop.
But dma_get_ops() isn't available on all the architectures (only the
architectures that uses dma_map_ops struct have it). Using
dma_get_ops() in drivers leads to compilation breakage on many
architectures.
This patch removes dma_get_ops() and changes bnx2 to do prefetch on
all the architectures. This adds useless prefetch on non-coherent
architectures but this is harmless. It is also unlikely to cause the
performance drop.

Dumped buffer descriptors showed that eTSEC's length/truncation
logic sometimes passes oversized packets, i.e. for the above ICMP
packet the following two buffer descriptors may become ready:
status=1400 length=1536
status=1800 length=1541
So, it seems that gianfar actually receives the whole big frame,
and it tries to place the packet into two BDs. This situation
confuses the driver, and so the skb_put() sanity check fails.
This patch fixes the issue by adding an appropriate check, i.e.
the driver should not try to process frames with buffer
descriptor's length over rx_buffer_size (i.e. maxfrm and mrblr).
Note that sometimes eTSEC works correctly, i.e. in the second
(last) buffer descriptor bits 'truncated' and 'crcerr' are set,
and so there's no oops. Though I couldn't find any logic when
it works correctly and when not.

Clear IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE for teql interfaces
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16183
The sch_teql module, which can be used to load balance over a set of
underlying interfaces, stopped working after 2.6.30 and has been
broken in all kernels since then for any underlying interface which
requires the addition of link level headers.
The problem is that the transmit routine relies on being able to
access the destination address in the skb in order to do address
resolution once it has decided which underlying interface it is going
to transmit through.
In 2.6.31 the IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE flag was introduced, and set by
default for all interfaces, which causes the destination address to be
released before the transmit routine for the interface is called.
The solution is to clear that flag for teql interfaces.

gianfar: Fix setup of RX time stamping
Previously the RCTRL_TS_ENABLE bit was set unconditionally. However, if
the RCTRL_TS_ENABLE is set without TMR_CTRL[TE], the driver does not work
properly on some boards (Anton had problems with the MPC8313ERDB and
MPC8568EMDS).
With this patch the bit will only be set if requested from user space
with the SIOCSHWTSTAMP ioctl command, meaning that time stamping is
disabled during normal operation. Users who are not interested in time
stamps will not experience problems with buggy CPU revisions or
performance drops any more.
The setting of TMR_CTRL[TE] is still up to the user. This is considered
safe because users wanting HW timestamps must initialize the eTSEC clock
first anyway, e.g. with the recently submitted PTP clock driver.
