The hardware and firmware for the RTL8192EE utilize a FIFO list of
descriptors. There were some problems with the initial implementation.
The worst of these failed to detect that the FIFO was becoming full,
which led to the device needing to be power cycled. As this condition
is not relevant to most of the devices supported by rtlwifi, a callback
routine was added to detect this situation. This patch implements the
necessary changes in the pci handler, and the linkage into the appropriate
rtl8192ee routine.

These drivers use 9100-byte receive buffers, thus allocating an skb requires
an O(3) memory allocation. Under heavy memory loads and fragmentation, such
a request can fail. Previous versions of the driver have dropped the packet
and reused the old buffer; however, the new version introduced a bug in that
it released the old buffer before trying to allocate a new one. The previous
method is implemented here. The skb is unmapped before any attempt is made to
allocate another.

Not only does this patch update the driver to match the latest Realtek release,
it is an important step in getting the internal code source at Realtek to match
the code in the kernel. The primary reason for this is to make it easier for

In this process of merging the two source repositories, there are a lot

Add MSI interrupts mode support, enable it when submodules' msi_support

RealTek's policy(on modules which work well with MSI interrupts mode) is:
> If the platform supports both MSI and pin-based, use MSI.
> If the platform supports MSI only, use MSI.

The present build configuration for the rtlwifi family of drivers will
fail under two known conditions:
(1) If rtlwifi is selected without selecting any of the dependent drivers,
there are errors in the build.
(2) If the PCI drivers are built into the kernel and the USB drivers are modules,
or vice versa, there are missing globals.
The first condition is fixed by never building rtlwifi unless at least one
of the device drivers is selected. The second failure is fixed by splitting
the PCI and USB codes out of rtlwifi, and creating their own mini drivers.
If the drivers that use them are modules, they will also be modules.
Although a number of files are touched by this patch, only Makefile and Kconfig
have undergone significant changes. The only modifications to the other files
were to export entry points needed by the new rtl_pci and rtl_usb units, or to
rename two variables that had names that were likely to cause namespace collisions.

Pull networking changes from David Miller:
1) GRE now works over ipv6, from Dmitry Kozlov.
2) Make SCTP more network namespace aware, from Eric Biederman.
3) TEAM driver now works with non-ethernet devices, from Jiri Pirko.
4) Make openvswitch network namespace aware, from Pravin B Shelar.
5) IPV6 NAT implementation, from Patrick McHardy.
6) Server side support for TCP Fast Open, from Jerry Chu and others.
7) Packet BPF filter supports MOD and XOR, from Eric Dumazet and Daniel
Borkmann.
8) Increate the loopback default MTU to 64K, from Eric Dumazet.
9) Use a per-task rather than per-socket page fragment allocator for
outgoing networking traffic. This benefits processes that have very
many mostly idle sockets, which is quite common.
From Eric Dumazet.
10) Use up to 32K for page fragment allocations, with fallbacks to
smaller sizes when higher order page allocations fail. Benefits are
a) less segments for driver to process b) less calls to page
allocator c) less waste of space.
From Eric Dumazet.
11) Allow GRO to be used on GRE tunnels, from Eric Dumazet.
12) VXLAN device driver, one way to handle VLAN issues such as the
limitation of 4096 VLAN IDs yet still have some level of isolation.
From Stephen Hemminger.
13) As usual there is a large boatload of driver changes, with the scale
perhaps tilted towards the wireless side this time around.
Fix up various fairly trivial conflicts, mostly caused by the user
namespace changes.
