2c3a5f9abb RDS: Add flag for silent ops. Do atomic op before RDMA
Add a flag to the API so users can indicate they want
silent operations. This is needed because silent ops
cannot be used with USE_ONCE MRs, so we can't just
assume silent.

Also, change send_xmit to do atomic op before rdma op if
both are present, and centralize the hairy logic to determine if
we want to attempt silent, or not.

bc8acf2c8c drivers/net: avoid some skb->ip_summed initializations
fresh skbs have ip_summed set to CHECKSUM_NONE (0)

We can avoid setting again skb->ip_summed to CHECKSUM_NONE in drivers.

Introduce skb_checksum_none_assert() helper so that we keep this
assertion documented in driver sources.

Change most occurrences of :

skb->ip_summed = CHECKSUM_NONE;

by :

skb_checksum_none_assert(skb);

86cac58b71 skge: add GRO support
- napi_gro_flush() is exported from net/core/dev.c, to avoid
  an irq_save/irq_restore in the packet receive path.
- use napi_gro_receive() instead of netif_receive_skb()
- use napi_gro_flush() before calling __napi_complete()
- turn on NETIF_F_GRO by default
- Tested on a Marvell 88E8001 Gigabit NIC

4dc89133f4 net: add a comment on netdev->last_rx
As some driver authors seem to reintroduce dev->last_rx use,
add a comment to strongly discourage this.

Since commit 6cf3f41e6c (bonding, net: Move last_rx update into bonding
recv logic), network drivers dont need to update last_rx themselves,
unless they use this field to implement a timeout.

Not updating last_rx helps not dirtying a cache line, improving
performance in SMP.

dca43c75e7 tcp: Add TCP_USER_TIMEOUT socket option.
This patch provides a "user timeout" support as described in RFC793. The
socket option is also needed for the the local half of RFC5482 "TCP User
Timeout Option".

TCP_USER_TIMEOUT is a TCP level socket option that takes an unsigned int,
when > 0, to specify the maximum amount of time in ms that transmitted
data may remain unacknowledged before TCP will forcefully close the
corresponding connection and return ETIMEDOUT to the application. If
0 is given, TCP will continue to use the system default.

Increasing the user timeouts allows a TCP connection to survive extended
periods without end-to-end connectivity. Decreasing the user timeouts
allows applications to "fail fast" if so desired. Otherwise it may take
upto 20 minutes with the current system defaults in a normal WAN
environment.

The socket option can be made during any state of a TCP connection, but
is only effective during the synchronized states of a connection
(ESTABLISHED, FIN-WAIT-1, FIN-WAIT-2, CLOSE-WAIT, CLOSING, or LAST-ACK).
Moreover, when used with the TCP keepalive (SO_KEEPALIVE) option,
TCP_USER_TIMEOUT will overtake keepalive to determine when to close a
connection due to keepalive failure.

The option does not change in anyway when TCP retransmits a packet, nor
when a keepalive probe will be sent.

This option, like many others, will be inherited by an acceptor from its
listener.

c0692b8fe2 cfg80211: allow changing port control protocol
Some vendor specified mechanisms for 802.1X-style
functionality use a different protocol than EAP
(even if EAP is vendor-extensible). Allow setting
the ethertype for the protocol when a driver has
support for this. The default if unspecified is
EAP, of course.

Note: This is suitable only for station mode, not
      for AP implementation.

40d0802b3e gro: __napi_gro_receive() optimizations
compare_ether_header() can have a special implementation on 64 bit
arches if CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS is defined.

__napi_gro_receive() and vlan_gro_common() can avoid a conditional
branch to perform device match.

On x86_64, __napi_gro_receive() has now 38 instructions instead of 53

As gcc-4.4.3 still choose to not inline it, add inline keyword to this
performance critical function.

1726442e11 net: increase the size of priv_flags and add IFF_OVS_DATAPATH
IFF_OVS_DATAPATH is a place-holder for the Open vSwitch datapath
which I am preparing to submit for merging.

As all 16 bits of priv_flags are already assigned flags, also increase
the size of priv_flags to 32 bits.

Unfortunately, by my calculations this increases the size of
struct net_device by 4 bytes on 32bit architectures and
8 bytes on 64 bit architectures. I couldn't see an obvious
way to avoid that.
