Grant Likely 644fdf9b08 mpc5200: Fix Kconfig dependancies on MPC5200 FEC device driver
When not building an arch/powerpc kernel, the mpc5200 FEC driver depends
on some symbols which are not defined (BESTCOMM & BESTCOMM_FEC).

This patch flips around the dependancy logic so that it cannot be
selected unless BESTCOMM_FEC is selected first.  Kconfig stops
complaining this way.

Also, the driver only works for arch/powerpc (not arch/ppc) anyway so
it should depend on PPC_MERGE also.

Hi,

this are the changes to the smc911x driver, which were necessary
to get it running on the Magic Panel R2 (smsc9115).
It is a SH3-DSP based board. The other patches are available on
the linuxsh-dev mailinglist.
http://marc.info/?l=linuxsh-dev&r=1&b=200708&w=2

It was necessary to set the irq sense to low level.
Therefor the SMC_IRQ_SENSE define was added.
How are the chances for inclusion in 2.6.24?

David Gibson 1d3bb99648 Device tree aware EMAC driver
Based on BenH's earlier work, this is a new version of the EMAC driver
for the built-in ethernet found on PowerPC 4xx embedded CPUs.  The
same ASIC is also found in the Axon bridge chip.  This new version is
designed to work in the arch/powerpc tree, using the device tree to
probe the device, rather than the old and ugly arch/ppc OCP layer.

This driver is designed to sit alongside the old driver (that lies in
drivers/net/ibm_emac and this one in drivers/net/ibm_newemac).  The
old driver is left in place to support arch/ppc until arch/ppc itself
reaches its final demise (not too long now, with luck).

This driver still has a number of things that could do with cleaning
up, but I think they can be fixed up after merging.  Specifically:
	- Should be adjusted to properly use the dma mapping API.
Axon needs this.
	- Probe logic needs reworking, in conjuction with the general
probing code for of_platform devices.  The dependencies here between
EMAC, MAL, ZMII etc. make this complicated.  At present, it usually
works, because we initialize and register the sub-drivers before the
EMAC driver itself, and (being in driver code) runs after the devices
themselves have been instantiated from the device tree.

Auke Kok 9a799d7103 ixgbe: driver for Intel(R) 82598 PCI-Express 10GbE adapters (v4)
This patch adds support for the Intel 82598 PCI-Express 10GbE
chipset. Devices will be available on the market soon.

This version of the driver is largely the same as the last release:

  * Driver uses a single RX and single TX queue, each using 1 MSI-X
  irq vector.
  * Driver runs in NAPI mode only
  * Driver is largely multiqueue-ready (TM)

Changes since 20070803:
  * removed wrappers for hardware functions
  * incorporated e1000e-style HW api reorganization code
  * sparse/checkpatch cleanups, namespace cleanups
  * driver prints out extra debugging information at load time
    identifying adapter board number, mac, phy types
  * removed ixgbe_api.c, ixgbe_api.h, ixgbe_osdep.h
  * driver update to 1.1.18
  * removed ixgbe.txt which contained no useful info anymore

Satyam Sharma 0bcc181618 [NET] netconsole: Support dynamic reconfiguration using configfs
Based upon initial work by Keiichi Kii <k-keiichi@bx.jp.nec.com>.

This patch introduces support for dynamic reconfiguration (adding, removing
and/or modifying parameters of netconsole targets at runtime) using a
userspace interface exported via configfs.  Documentation is also updated
accordingly.

Issues and brief design overview:

(1) Kernel-initiated creation / destruction of kernel objects is not
    possible with configfs -- the lifetimes of the "config items" is managed
    exclusively from userspace.  But netconsole must support boot/module
    params too, and these are parsed in kernel and hence netpolls must be
    setup from the kernel.  Joel Becker suggested to separately manage the
    lifetimes of the two kinds of netconsole_target objects -- those created
    via configfs mkdir(2) from userspace and those specified from the
    boot/module option string.  This adds complexity and some redundancy here
    and also means that boot/module param-created targets are not exposed
    through the configfs namespace (and hence cannot be updated / destroyed
    dynamically).  However, this saves us from locking / refcounting
    complexities that would need to be introduced in configfs to support
    kernel-initiated item creation / destroy there.

(2) In configfs, item creation takes place in the call chain of the
    mkdir(2) syscall in the driver subsystem.  If we used an ioctl(2) to
    create / destroy objects from userspace, the special userspace program is
    able to fill out the structure to be passed into the ioctl and hence
    specify attributes such as local interface that are required at the time
    we set up the netpoll.  For configfs, this information is not available at
    the time of mkdir(2).  So, we keep all newly-created targets (via
    configfs) disabled by default.  The user is expected to set various
    attributes appropriately (including the local network interface if
    required) and then write(2) "1" to the "enabled" attribute.  Thus,
    netpoll_setup() is then called on the set parameters in the context of
    _this_ write(2) on the "enabled" attribute itself.  This design enables
    the user to reconfigure existing netconsole targets at runtime to be
    attached to newly-come-up interfaces that may not have existed when
    netconsole was loaded or when the targets were actually created.  All this
    effectively enables us to get rid of custom ioctls.

(3) Ultra-paranoid configfs attribute show() and store() operations, with
    sanity and input range checking, using only safe string primitives, and
    compliant with the recommendations in Documentation/filesystems/sysfs.txt.

(4) A new function netpoll_print_options() is created in the netpoll API,
    that just prints out the configured parameters for a netpoll structure.
    netpoll_parse_options() is modified to use that and it is also exported to
    be used from netconsole.

Pavel Emelyanov e314dbdc1c [NET]: Virtual ethernet device driver.
Veth stands for Virtual ETHernet. It is a simple tunnel driver
that works at the link layer and looks like a pair of ethernet
devices interconnected with each other.

Mainly it allows to communicate between network namespaces but
it can be used as is as well.

The newlink callback is organized that way to make it easy to
create the peer device in the separate namespace when we have
them in kernel.

This implementation uses another interface - the RTM_NRELINK
message introduced by Patric.

This patch removes some code that became dead code after the ATARI_ACSI
removal.

It also indirectly fixes the following bug introduced by
