Ajit Khaparde 82903e4bfc be2net: fix to limit max vlans supported in certain skews
In certain skews the ASIC can support only 16 vlans per interface.
Once the limit is crossed, the ASIC is programmed in vlan promiscuous mode.
Switch off the vlan promiscuous mode once the number of vlans
falls back to the max vlans supported.

Tristram Ha 8ca86fd83e net: Micrel KSZ8841/2 PCI Ethernet driver
This is a new network driver for Micrel KSZ8841/KSZ8842 PCI Ethernet chips.  The same driver can run both chips at the same time.  It supports IPv4 TCP hardware checksumming and so can use scatter/gather transmission.

The KSZ8842 switch has 2 ports.  Some users like to take direct control of those ports.  So KSZ8842 has a multiple devices mode in which the driver creates another network device so that users can specify which port to send packets.  This mode is enabled by passing the "multi_dev=1" parameter to the driver during loading.

The KSZ884X can receive huge frames with size up to 1916 bytes.  To use this feature change the network device MTU from 1500 to 1898.

The KSZ884X driver has 3 packet receive processing functions for the normal mode, multiple devices mode, and huge frame mode.  Those functions are identical except for more checking for the new features.  In normal programming point of view the huge frame version is the one to use because it covers all the cases, but this is done for performance consideration because the target clients for the KSZ884X chips are embedded systems, which unlike desktop PC may not have powerful CPU.

Uwe Kleine-König 447d8c2603 net: move am79c961's probe function to .devinit.text
A pointer to am79c961_probe is passed to the core via
platform_driver_register and so the function must not disappear when the
.init sections are discarded.  Otherwise (if also having HOTPLUG=y)
unbinding and binding a device to the driver via sysfs will result in an
oops as does a device being registered late.

An alternative to this patch is using platform_driver_probe instead of
platform_driver_register plus removing the pointer to the probe function
from the struct platform_driver.

When the fib size exceeds what can be dumped in a single skb, the
dump is suspended and resumed once the last skb has been received
by userspace. When the fib is changed while the dump is suspended,
the walker might contain stale pointers, causing a crash when the

Gerrit Renker 69a6a0b38a dccp: allow probing of CCID-array length
This fixes a problem in the DCCP getsockopt() API: currently there is no way
for a user to a priori know the number of built-in CCIDs, other than trying
DCCP_SOCKOPT_AVAILABLE_CCIDS in a loop, incrementing the option length until
EINVAL is no longer returned.

This patch truncates the array to the user-provided length. No copy is made
when the length is <= 0.

Due to the length restriction in do_dccp_getsockopt() to sizeof(int), the
minimum array length remains 4, which is a reasonable default (only 3
CCIDs, CCID-2..4, are currently defined).

Patrick McHardy d696c7bdaa netfilter: nf_conntrack: fix hash resizing with namespaces
As noticed by Jon Masters <jonathan@jonmasters.org>, the conntrack hash
size is global and not per namespace, but modifiable at runtime through
/sys/module/nf_conntrack/hashsize. Changing the hash size will only
resize the hash in the current namespace however, so other namespaces
will use an invalid hash size. This can cause crashes when enlarging
the hashsize, or false negative lookups when shrinking it.

Move the hash size into the per-namespace data and only use the global
hash size to initialize the per-namespace value when instanciating a
new namespace. Additionally restrict hash resizing to init_net for
now as other namespaces are not handled currently.
