3d1e4db2b0 phylib: Rework suspend/resume code to check netdev wakeup capability
In most cases (e.g. PCI drivers) MDIO and MAC controllers are
represented by the same device. But for SOC ethernets we have
separate devices. So, in SOC case, checking whether MDIO
controller may wakeup is not only makes little sense, but also
prevents us from doing per-netdevice wakeup management.

This patch reworks suspend/resume code so that now it checks
for net device's wakeup flags, not MDIO controller's ones.

Each netdevice should manage its wakeup flags, and phylib will
decide whether suspend an attached PHY or not.

31f4574774 smsc911x: allow mac address to be saved before device reset
Some platforms (for example pcm037) do not have an EEPROM fitted,
instead storing their mac address somewhere else.  The bootloader
fetches this and configures the ethernet adapter before the kernel is
started.

This patch allows a platform to indicate to the driver via the
SMSC911X_SAVE_MAC_ADDRESS flag that the mac address has already been
configured via such a mechanism, and should be saved before resetting
the chip.

d23f028a4d smsc911x: add external phy detection overrides
On LAN9115/LAN9117/LAN9215/LAN9217, external phys are supported.  These
are usually indicated by a hardware strap which sets an "external PHY
detected" bit in the HW_CFG register.

In some cases it is desirable to override this hardware strap and force
use of either the internal phy or an external PHY.  This patch adds
SMSC911X_FORCE_INTERNAL_PHY and SMSC911X_FORCE_EXTERNAL_PHY flags so a
platform can indicate this preference via its platform_data.

905db44087 packet: Avoid lock_sock in mmap handler
As the mmap handler gets called under mmap_sem, and we may grab
mmap_sem elsewhere under the socket lock to access user data, we
should avoid grabbing the socket lock in the mmap handler.

Since the only thing we care about in the mmap handler is for
pg_vec* to be invariant, i.e., to exclude packet_set_ring, we
can achieve this by simply using a new mutex.

e5664bb2a7 gianfar: Fix Wake-on-LAN support
commit 0f0ca340e5 ("phy: power
management support") caused a regression in the gianfar driver.

Now phylib turns off PHY power during suspend, and thus WOL
doesn't work anymore.

This patch workarounds the issue by enabling wakeup in the MDIO
device, i.e. just restores the old behaviour for the gianfar
driver. Note that this way all PHYs on a given MDIO bus won't
be turned off during suspend, which isn't good from the power
saving point of view.

A proper, per netdevice wakeup management support will need
a bit reworked phylib suspend/resume logic.

1af7ad5104 wimax: fix build issue when debugfs is disabled
As reported by Toralf Förster and Randy Dunlap.

- http://linuxwimax.org/pipermail/wimax/2009-January/000460.html

- http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/1/29/279

The definitions needed for the wimax stack and i2400m driver debug
infrastructure was, by mistake, compiled depending on CONFIG_DEBUG_FS
(by them being placed in the debugfs.c files); thus the build broke in
2.6.29-rc3 when debugging was enabled (CONFIG_WIMAX_DEBUG) and
DEBUG_FS was disabled.

These definitions are always needed if debug is enabled at compile
time (independently of DEBUG_FS being or not enabled), so moving them
to a file that is always compiled fixes the issue.

gro: Do not merge paged packets into frag_list

Bigger is not always better :)

It was easy to continue to merged packets into frag_list after the
page array is full.  However, this turns out to be worse than LRO
because frag_list is a much less efficient form of storage than the
page array.  So we're better off stopping the merge and starting
a new entry with an empty page array.

In future we can optimise this further by doing frag_list merging
but making sure that we continue to fill in the page array.

86911732d3 gro: Avoid copying headers of unmerged packets
Unfortunately simplicity isn't always the best.  The fraginfo
interface turned out to be suboptimal.  The problem was quite
obvious.  For every packet, we have to copy the headers from
the frags structure into skb->head, even though for 99% of the
packets this part is immediately thrown away after the merge.

LRO didn't have this problem because it directly read the headers
from the frags structure.

This patch attempts to address this by creating an interface
that allows GRO to access the headers in the first frag without
having to copy it.  Because all drivers that use frags place the
headers in the first frag this optimisation should be enough.

5d0d9be8ef gro: Move common completion code into helpers
Currently VLAN still has a bit of common code handling the aftermath
of GRO that's shared with the common path.  This patch moves them
into shared helpers to reduce code duplication.

71b3346d18 net: Fix OOPS in skb_seq_read().
It oopsd for me in skb_seq_read. addr2line said it was
linux-2.6/net/core/skbuff.c:2228, which is this line:


	while (st->frag_idx < skb_shinfo(st->cur_skb)->nr_frags) {


I added some printks in there and it looks like we hit this:

        } else if (st->root_skb == st->cur_skb &&
                   skb_shinfo(st->root_skb)->frag_list) {
                 st->cur_skb = skb_shinfo(st->root_skb)->frag_list;
                 st->frag_idx = 0;
                 goto next_skb;
        }



Actually I did some testing and added a few printks and found that the
st->cur_skb->data was 0 and hence the ptr used by iscsi_tcp was null.
This caused the kernel panic.

 	if (abs_offset < block_limit) {
-		*data = st->cur_skb->data + abs_offset;
+		*data = st->cur_skb->data + (abs_offset - st->stepped_offset);

I enabled the debug_tcp and with a few printks found that the code did
not go to the next_skb label and could find that the sequence being
followed was this -

It hit this if condition -

        if (st->cur_skb->next) {
                st->cur_skb = st->cur_skb->next;
                st->frag_idx = 0;
                goto next_skb;

And so, now the st pointer is shifted to the next skb whereas actually
it should have hit the second else if first since the data is in the
frag_list.

        else if (st->root_skb == st->cur_skb &&
                 skb_shinfo(st->root_skb)->frag_list) {
                st->cur_skb = skb_shinfo(st->root_skb)->frag_list;
                goto next_skb;
        }

Reversing the two conditions the attached patch fixes the issue for me
on top of Herbert's patches.
