Currently netem is not in the ability to emulate channel bandwidth. Only static
delay (and optional random jitter) can be configured.
To emulate the channel rate the token bucket filter (sch_tbf) can be used. But
TBF has some major emulation flaws. The buffer (token bucket depth/rate) cannot
be 0. Also the idea behind TBF is that the credit (token in buckets) fills if
no packet is transmitted. So that there is always a "positive" credit for new
packets. In real life this behavior contradicts the law of nature where
nothing can travel faster as speed of light. E.g.: on an emulated 1000 byte/s
link a small IPv4/TCP SYN packet with ~50 byte require ~0.05 seconds - not 0
seconds.
Netem is an excellent place to implement a rate limiting feature: static
delay is already implemented, tfifo already has time information and the
user can skip TBF configuration completely.
This patch implement rate feature which can be configured via tc. e.g:
tc qdisc add dev eth0 root netem rate 10kbit
To emulate a link of 5000byte/s and add an additional static delay of 10ms:
tc qdisc add dev eth0 root netem delay 10ms rate 5KBps
Note: similar to TBF the rate extension is bounded to the kernel timing
system. Depending on the architecture timer granularity, higher rates (e.g.
10mbit/s and higher) tend to transmission bursts. Also note: further queues
living in network adaptors; see ethtool(8).

We are going to alloc for device specific private areas for
neighbour entries, and in order to do that we have to move
away from the fixed allocation size enforced by using
neigh_table->kmem_cachep
As a nice side effect we can now use kfree_rcu().

Rick Jones reported that TCP_CONGESTION sockopt performed on a listener
was ignored for its children sockets : right after accept() the
congestion control for new socket is the system default one.
This seems an oversight of the initial design (quoted from Stephen)
Based on prior investigation and patch from Rick.

in iSCSI SD mode to bnx2x device assigned single mac address
which is supposted to be iscsi mac. If this mode is recognized
bnx2x will disable LRO, decrease number of queues to 1 and rx ring

It will tranfer mac for iscsi usage and zero primary mac of the netdev.

This patch adds support for legacy Bosch CC770 and Intel AN82527 CAN
controllers on the ISA or PC-104 bus. The I/O port or memory address
and the IRQ number must be specified via module parameters:
insmod cc770_isa.ko port=0x310,0x380 irq=7,11
for ISA devices using I/O ports or:
insmod cc770_isa.ko mem=0xd1000,0xd1000 irq=7,11
for memory mapped ISA devices.
Indirect access via address and data port is supported as well:
insmod cc770_isa.ko port=0x310,0x380 indirect=1 irq=7,11
Furthermore, the following mode parameter can be defined:
clk: External oscillator clock frequency (default=16000000 [16 MHz])
cir: CPU interface register (default=0x40 [CPU_DSC])
ocr, Bus configuration register (default=0x00)
cor, Clockout register (default=0x00)
Note: for clk, cir, bcr and cor, the first argument re-defines the
default for all other devices, e.g.:
insmod cc770_isa.ko mem=0xd1000,0xd1000 irq=7,11 clk=24000000
is equivalent to
insmod cc770_isa.ko mem=0xd1000,0xd1000 irq=7,11 clk=24000000,24000000

Add some basic regulator support for the power pins, as needed
by the ST-Ericsson Snowball platform that powers up the SMSC911
chip using an external regulator.
Platforms that use regulators and the smsc911x and have no defined
regulator for the smsc911x and claim complete regulator
constraints with no dummy regulators will need to provide it, for
example using a fixed voltage regulator. It appears that this may
affect (apart from Ux500 Snowball) possibly these archs/machines
that from some grep:s appear to define both CONFIG_SMSC911X and
CONFIG_REGULATOR:
- ARM Freescale mx3 and OMAP 2 plus, Raumfeld machines
- Blackfin
- Super-H

When notify=1 means we does not need to unregister the device,
