FEC ptp timer has 4 channel compare/trigger function. It can be used to
enable pps output.
The pulse would be ouput high exactly on N second. The pulse ouput high
on compare event mode is used to produce pulse per second. The pulse
width would be one cycle based on ptp timer clock source.Since 31-bit
ptp hardware timer is used, the timer will wrap more than 2 seconds. We
need to reload the compare compare event about every 1 second.

Bug: Unable to send and receive Ethernet packets with Micrel PHY.
Affected devices:
KSZ8031RNL (commercial temp)
KSZ8031RNLI (industrial temp)
Description:
PHY device is correctly detected during probe.
PHY power-up default is 25MHz crystal clock input
and output 50MHz RMII clock to MAC.
Reconfiguration of PHY to input 50MHz RMII clock from MAC
causes PHY to become unresponsive if clock source is changed
after Operation Mode Strap Override (OMSO) register setup.
Cause:
Long lead times on parts where clock setup match circuit design
forces the usage of similar parts with wrong default setup.
Solution:
Swapped KSZ8031 register setup and added phy_write return code validation.
Tested with Freescale i.MX28 Fast Ethernet Controler (fec).

The netif_rx() call on the fast path of macvlan_handle_frame() appears to
be there to ensure that we properly throttle incoming packets. However, it
would appear as though the proper throttling is already in place for all
possible ingress paths, and that the call is redundant. If packets are arriving
from the physical NIC, we've already throttled them by this point. Otherwise,
if they are coming via macvlan_queue_xmit(), it calls either
'dev_forward_skb()', which ends up calling netif_rx_internal(), or else in
the broadcast case, we are throttling via macvlan_broadcast_enqueue().
The test results below are from off the box to an lxc instance running macvlan.
Once the tranactions/sec stop increasing, the cpu idle time has gone to 0.

Pull networking updates from David Miller:
"Most notable changes in here:
1) By far the biggest accomplishment, thanks to a large range of
contributors, is the addition of multi-send for transmit. This is
the result of discussions back in Chicago, and the hard work of
several individuals.
Now, when the ->ndo_start_xmit() method of a driver sees
skb->xmit_more as true, it can choose to defer the doorbell
telling the driver to start processing the new TX queue entires.
skb->xmit_more means that the generic networking is guaranteed to
call the driver immediately with another SKB to send.
There is logic added to the qdisc layer to dequeue multiple
packets at a time, and the handling mis-predicted offloads in
software is now done with no locks held.
Finally, pktgen is extended to have a "burst" parameter that can
be used to test a multi-send implementation.
Several drivers have xmit_more support: i40e, igb, ixgbe, mlx4,
virtio_net
Adding support is almost trivial, so export more drivers to
support this optimization soon.
I want to thank, in no particular or implied order, Jesper
Dangaard Brouer, Eric Dumazet, Alexander Duyck, Tom Herbert, Jamal
Hadi Salim, John Fastabend, Florian Westphal, Daniel Borkmann,
David Tat, Hannes Frederic Sowa, and Rusty Russell.
2) PTP and timestamping support in bnx2x, from Michal Kalderon.
3) Allow adjusting the rx_copybreak threshold for a driver via
ethtool, and add rx_copybreak support to enic driver. From
Govindarajulu Varadarajan.
4) Significant enhancements to the generic PHY layer and the bcm7xxx
driver in particular (EEE support, auto power down, etc.) from
Florian Fainelli.
5) Allow raw buffers to be used for flow dissection, allowing drivers
to determine the optimal "linear pull" size for devices that DMA
into pools of pages. The objective is to get exactly the
necessary amount of headers into the linear SKB area pre-pulled,
but no more. The new interface drivers use is eth_get_headlen().

by-hand duplicated implementations) by Alexander Duyck and Eric

6) Support checksumming more smoothly and efficiently for

7) Add Broadcom SF2 switch driver to DSA layer, from Florian
Fainelli.
8) eBPF now can load programs via a system call and has an extensive

9) Major overhaul of the packet scheduler to use RCU in several major
areas such as the classifiers and rate estimators. From John
Fastabend.
10) Add driver for Intel FM10000 Ethernet Switch, from Alexander

The tx_desc struct holds 8 __be64 values. The original code in
ring_tx_db() took a tx_desc pointer then casted it to an int pointer and
then casted it to a u64 pointer. It was confusing and triggered some
static checker warnings.
I have changed the cxgb_pio_copy() function to only take tx_desc
pointers. This isn't really a loss of flexibility because anything else
was buggy to begin with.

between spin_unlock_irqrestore() and the following instruction, hence in
