The current descriptions state that these fields specify 'How many
packets to delay ... after a packet ...' which implies that the
hardware should wait for (max_coalesced_frames + 1) completions before
generating an interrupt. It is also stated that setting both this
field and the corresponding 'coalesce_usecs' field to 0 is invalid.
Together, this implies that the hardware must always be configured
to delay a completion IRQ for at least 1 usec or 1 more completion.
I believe that the addition of 1 is not intended, and David Miller
confirms that the original implementation (in tg3) does not do this.
Clarify the descriptions of these fields to avoid this interpretation.

sit tunnels (IPv6 tunnel over IPv4) do not implement the "tos inherit"
case to copy the IPv6 transport class byte from the inner packet to
the IPv4 type of service byte in the outer packet. By contrast, ipip
tunnels and GRE tunnels do.
This patch, adapted from the similar code in net/ipv4/ipip.c and
net/ipv4/ip_gre.c, implements that.
This patch applies to 3.0.1, and has been tested on that version.

In this code, the failure_cleanup label calls the function
plx_pci_del_card, which frees everything in the card->net_dev array. dev
is placed in this array immediately after allocation, so the two subsequent
jumps to failure_cleanup should not also call free_sja1000dev, but the
second one does.
If plx_pci_check_sja1000 fails, then free_sja1000dev is also called on
dev. Because dev is already in the card->net_dev array, this implies that
when plx_pci_del_card is later called, it may get freed again. So that
entry is reset to NULL after the free.
Finally, if there is a problem with one channel, there will be a hole in the
array. card->channels counts the number of channels that have succeeded,
and does not keep track of the index of the largest element in the array
that is valid. So the loop in plx_pci_del_card is changed to go up to
PLX_PCI_MAX_CHAN, which is only 2.

The vmxnet3 driver enables vlan filters if filtering is enabled for
any vlan. In promiscuous mode the filter table is cleared to in
order to disable filtering. However, if a vlan device is subsequently
created that vlan will be added to the filter, re-engaging it. As a
result, not only do we not see all the vlans in promiscuous mode, we
don't even see vlans for which a filter was previously created.

When the Manageability Engine (ME) is enabled on 82579, it periodically
accesses some MAC CSR registers. There is an arbiter in hardware which
prevents simultaneous access of these registers by the host software, i.e.
the driver. There is a hardware bug in the aribter that signals a host
access of the registers later than it actually happens. A write of the
Transmit or Receive Descriptor Tail register could result in an incorrect
value if the driver and ME perform simultaneous accesses which could result
in an access to an invalid memory address. This would return an
Unsupported Request which could hang the hardware. Workaround the issue by
checking the FWSM register bit24 which is set by ME before it accesses the
MAC CSR registers.

On 82577/8/9 in half-duplex when a received packet is passed from the PHY
to the MAC, if too many preamble octects are stripped from the packet
before arriving at the MAC, it can be misintrepeted as an in-band message
rather than an actual frame. For example, if the frame contents resembled
an interrupt request in-band message, it would trigger a false interrupt.
In most cases, the packet is just dropped.
By reducing the number of preamble octets stripped from the beginning of
the frame when passing it from the PHY to the MAC, the MAC will interpret
the frame properly.
An additional uses of the magic PHY_REG(770, 16) have been updated with a
define introduced with this patch.

This patch extends the HiperSockets device driver to send and receive
af_iucv traffic over HiperSockets transport.
TX: Driver uses new asynchronous delivery of storage blocks to pass
flow control/congestion information from the HiperSockets microcode
to the af_iucv socket.
RX: Memory for incoming traffic is preallocated and passed to
HiperSockets layer. If receiver is not capable to clean its buffers
shared with HiperSockets and pass new memory to the HiperSockets
layer this will cause flow control/congestion events on the
sender.

The current transport mechanism for af_iucv is the z/VM offered
communications facility IUCV. To provide equivalent support when
running Linux in an LPAR, HiperSockets transport is added to the
AF_IUCV address family. It requires explicit binding of an AF_IUCV
socket to a HiperSockets device. A new packet_type ETH_P_AF_IUCV
is announced. An af_iucv specific transport header is defined
preceding the skb data. A small protocol is implemented for
connecting and for flow control/congestion management.
