There are more than a dozen occurrences of following code in the
IPv6 stack:
if (opt && opt->srcrt) {
struct rt0_hdr *rt0 = (struct rt0_hdr *) opt->srcrt;
ipv6_addr_copy(&final, &fl.fl6_dst);
ipv6_addr_copy(&fl.fl6_dst, rt0->addr);
final_p = &final;
}
Replace those with a helper. Note that the helper overrides final_p
in all cases. This is ok as final_p was previously initialized to
NULL when declared.

Normally dhclient can be configured to send the "host-name" option
in DHCP requests to update the client's DNS record. However for an
NFSROOT system, dhclient shall never be called (which may change the
IP addr and therefore lose your root NFS mount connection).
So enable updating the DNS record with kernel parameter
ip=::::$HOST_NAME::dhcp

This patch adds a setting, PACKET_TIMESTAMP, to specify the packet
timestamp source that is exported to capture utilities like tcpdump by
packet_mmap.
PACKET_TIMESTAMP accepts the same integer bit field as
SO_TIMESTAMPING. However, only the SOF_TIMESTAMPING_SYS_HARDWARE and
SOF_TIMESTAMPING_RAW_HARDWARE values are currently recognized by
PACKET_TIMESTAMP. SOF_TIMESTAMPING_SYS_HARDWARE takes precedence over
SOF_TIMESTAMPING_RAW_HARDWARE if both bits are set.
If PACKET_TIMESTAMP is not set, a software timestamp generated inside
the networking stack is used (the behavior before this setting was
added).

Linux 2.6.33 reports this checkstack warning:

drivers/net/vxge/vxge-main.c:4409: warning: the frame size of 1028 bytes is larger than 1024 bytes
This warning does not occur in the latest linux-2.6 or linux-next, however,
when I do a 'make -j32 CONFIG_FRAME_WARN=512' instead of 1024 I see
drivers/net/vxge/vxge-main.c: In function ‘vxge_probe’:
drivers/net/vxge/vxge-main.c:4423: warning: the frame size of 1024 bytes is larger than 512 bytes

When many cpus compete for sending frames on a given qdisc, the qdisc
spinlock suffers from very high contention.
The cpu owning __QDISC_STATE_RUNNING bit has same priority to acquire
the lock, and cannot dequeue packets fast enough, since it must wait for
this lock for each dequeued packet.
One solution to this problem is to force all cpus spinning on a second
lock before trying to get the main lock, when/if they see
__QDISC_STATE_RUNNING already set.
The owning cpu then compete with at most one other cpu for the main
lock, allowing for higher dequeueing rate.
Based on a previous patch from Alexander Duyck. I added the heuristic to
avoid the atomic in fast path, and put the new lock far away from the
cache line used by the dequeue worker. Also try to release the busylock
lock as late as possible.
Tests with following script gave a boost from ~50.000 pps to ~600.000
pps on a dual quad core machine (E5450 @3.00GHz), tg3 driver.
(A single netperf flow can reach ~800.000 pps on this platform)

__QDISC_STATE_RUNNING is always changed while qdisc lock is held.
We can avoid two atomic operations in xmit path, if we move this bit in
a new __state container.
Location of this __state container is carefully chosen so that fast path
only dirties one qdisc cache line.
THROTTLED bit could later be moved into this __state location too, to
avoid dirtying first qdisc cache line.

Following changes have been added to enable the adapter to work in
NIC partitioning mode where multiple PCI functions of an adapter port can
be configured to work as NIC functions. The first function that is enumerated on
the PCI bus assumes the role of management function which, besides being able
to do all the NIC functionality, can configure other NIC partitions. Other NIC
functions can be configured as privileged or non privileged functions.
Privileged function can not configure other NIC functions but can do all the
NIC functionality including any firmware initialization, chip reset etc. Non
privileged functions can do only basic IO. For chip reset etc, it depends on the
privilege or management function.
1. Added code to determine PCI function number independent of kernel API.
2. Added Driver - FW version 2.0 support.
3. Changed producer and consumer register offset calculation.
4. Added management and privileged operation modes for npar functions. A module
parameter has been added to control it.
5. Added support for configuring the eswitch in the adapter.

A single shared memory region used to communicate with firmware is
mapped into both PCI PFs of the SFC9020 and SFL9021. Drivers must be
able to identify which port they are addressing in order to use the
correct sub-region. Currently we use the PCI function number, but the
PCI address may be virtualised. Use the CS_PORT_NUM register field
defined for just this purpose.
