The Thinkpad X100e seems to have some odd behaviour when the display is
powered off - the onboard r8169 starts generating rxfifo overflow errors.
The root cause of this has not yet been identified and may well be a
hardware design bug on the platform, but r8169 should be more resiliant to
this. This patch enables the rxfifo interrupt on 8168 devices and removes
the MAC version check in the interrupt handler, and the machine no longer
crashes when under network load while the screen turns off.

Some pcnet_cs compatible cards require an exact 16-lines match
of the ioport areas specified in CIS, but set the "iolines"
value in the CIS incorrectly. We can easily work around this
issue -- same as we do in serial_cs -- by first trying setting
iolines to the CIS-specified value, and then trying a 16-line
match.

On resume, before starting the PAL state machine, check if the
adjust_link() method is well supplied. If not, this would lead to a
NULL pointer dereference in the phy_state_machine() function.
This scenario can happen if the Ethernet driver call manually the PHY
functions instead of using the PAL state machine. The mv643xx_eth driver
is a such example.

It was recently brought to my attention that 802.3ad mode bonds would no
longer form when using some network hardware after a driver update.
After snooping around I realized that the particular hardware was using
page-based skbs and found that skb->data did not contain a valid LACPDU
as it was not stored there. That explained the inability to form an
802.3ad-based bond. For balance-alb mode bonds this was also an issue
as ARPs would not be properly processed.
This patch fixes the issue in my tests and should be applied to 2.6.36
and as far back as anyone cares to add it to stable.

The 'wwan' devtype is meant for devices that require preconfiguration
and *every* time setup before the ethernet interface can be used, like
cellular modems which require a series of setup commands on serial ports
or other mechanisms before the ethernet interface will handle packets.
As ipheth only requires one-per-hotplug pairing setup with no
preconfiguration (like APN, phone #, etc) and the network interface is
usable at any time after that initial setup, remove the incorrect
devtype wwan.

niu_get_ethtool_tcam_all() assumes that its output buffer is the right
size, and warns before returning if it is not. However, the output
buffer size is under user control and ETHTOOL_GRXCLSRLALL is an
unprivileged ethtool command. Therefore this is at least a local
denial-of-service vulnerability.
Change it to check before writing each entry and to return an error if
the buffer is already full.
Compile-tested only.

This fixes a bug introduced in commit
de847272149365363a6043a963a6f42fb91566e2
"3c59x: Use fine-grained locks for MII and windowed register access".
vortex_interrupt() holds vp->window_lock over multiple register
accesses to reduce locking overhead. However it also needs to call
vortex_error() sometimes, and that uses the regular functions for
access to windowed registers, which will try to acquire window_lock
again.
Therefore, drop window_lock around the call to vortex_error() and set
the window afterward reacquiring the lock. Since vortex_error() may
call vortex_rx(), which *does* require its caller to hold window_lock,
lift that call up into vortex_interrupt(). This also removes the
potential for calling vortex_rx() on a later-generation NIC.

The time_before_eq()/time_after_eq() functions operate on unsigned
long and only work if the difference between the two compared values
is smaller than half the range of unsigned long (31 bits on i386).
Some of the variables (slave->jiffies, dev->trans_start, dev->last_rx)
used by bonding store a copy of jiffies and may not be updated for a
long time. With HZ=1000, time_before_eq()/time_after_eq() will start
giving bad results after ~25 days.
jiffies will never be before slave->jiffies, dev->trans_start,
dev->last_rx by more than possibly a couple ticks caused by preemption
of this code. This allows us to detect/prevent these overflows by
replacing time_before_eq()/time_after_eq() with time_in_range().

vortex_ioctl() was grabbing vortex_private::lock around its call to
generic_mii_ioctl(). This is no longer necessary since there are more
specific locks which the mdio_{read,write}() functions will obtain.
Worse, those functions do not save and restore IRQ flags when locking
the MII state, so interrupts will be enabled when generic_mii_ioctl()
returns.
Since there is currently no need for any function to call
mdio_{read,write}() while holding another spinlock, do not change them
to save and restore IRQ flags but remove the specification of ordering
between vortex_private::lock and vortex_private::mii_lock.

There's something very important I forgot to tell you.
What?
Don't cross the GRO streams.
Why?
It would be bad.
I'm fuzzy on the whole good/bad thing. What do you mean, "bad"?
Try to imagine all the Internet as you know it stopping instantaneously
and every bit in every packet swapping at the speed of light.
Total packet reordering.
Right. That's bad. Okay. All right. Important safety tip. Thanks, Hubert
The simplest way to stop this is just avoid doing GRO on the second port.
Very few Marvell boards support two ports per ring, and GRO is just
an optimization.

being one bit too short. Without this the calibrated regulatory
maximum values were not being picked up when devices operate

Michael reported that p54* never really entered power
save mode, even tough it was enabled.
It turned out that upon a power save mode change the
firmware will set a special flag onto the last outgoing
frame tx status (which in this case is almost always the
designated PSM nullfunc frame). This flag confused the
driver; It erroneously reported transmission failures
to the stack, which then generated the next nullfunc.
and so on...

A couple issues here:
* Some resources weren't released.
* If alloc_etherdev() failed it would have caused a NULL dereference
because "pep" would be null when we checked "if (pep->clk)".
* Also it's better to propagate the error codes from mdiobus_register()
instead of just returning -ENOMEM.

"pep->pd" isn't checked consistently in this function. For example it's
dereferenced unconditionally on the next line after the end of the if
condition. This function is only called from pxa168_eth_probe() and
pep->pd is always non-NULL so I removed the check.

It is possible that phylib will call adjust_link before returning
from {,of_}phy_connect(), which may cause the following [very rare,
though] oops upon reopening the device:
Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0x0000024c
Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1]

[...]
Here is why. Drivers store phydev in their private structures, e.g.
gianfar driver:
static int init_phy(struct net_device *dev)
{
...
priv->phydev = of_phy_connect(...);
...
}
So that adjust_link could retrieve it back:
static void adjust_link(struct net_device *dev)
{
...
struct phy_device *phydev = priv->phydev;
...
}
If the device has been opened before, then phydev->state is set to
PHY_HALTED (or undefined if the driver didn't call phy_stop()).
Now, phy_connect starts the PHY state machine before returning phydev to
the driver:
phy_start_machine(phydev, NULL);
if (phydev->irq > 0)
phy_start_interrupts(phydev);
return phydev;
The time between 'phy_start_machine()' and 'return phydev' is undefined.
The start machine routine delays execution for 1 second, which is enough
for most cases. But under heavy load, or if you're unlucky, it is quite
possible that PHY state machine will execute before phy_connect()
returns, and so adjust_link callback will try to dereference phydev,
which is not yet ready.
To fix the issue, simply initialize the PHY's state to PHY_READY during
phy_attach(). This will ensure that phylib won't call adjust_link before
phy_start().

If netconsole is in use, there is a possibility for deadlock in 3c59x between
boomerang_interrupt and boomerang_start_xmit. Both routines take the vp->lock,
and if netconsole is in use, a pr_* call from the boomerang_interrupt routine
will result in the netconsole code attempting to trnasmit an skb, which can try
to take the same spin lock, resulting in deadlock.
The fix is pretty straightforward. This patch allocats a bit in the 3c59x
private structure to indicate that its handling an interrupt. If we get into
the transmit routine and that bit is set, we can be sure that we have recursed
and will deadlock if we continue, so instead we just return NETDEV_TX_BUSY, so
the stack requeues the skb to try again later.
