2b87f3aac0 ath9k/debug: improve the snprintf() handling
The snprintf() function returns the number of bytes that *would* have
been written (not counting the NULL terminator) and that can potentally
be more than the size of the buffer.

In this patch if there were one liners where string clearly fits into
the buffer, then I changed snprintf to sprintf().  It's confusing to use
the return value of snprintf() as a limitter without verifying that it's
smaller than size.  This is what initially caught my attention here.
If we use the return value of sprintf() instead future code auditors will
assume we've verified that it fits already.

Also I did find some places where it made sense to use the return value
after we've verified that it is smaller than the buffer size.

Finally the read_file_rcstat() function added an explicit NULL terminator
before calling snprintf().  That's unnecessary because snprintf() will
add the null terminator automatically.

66fceb69b7 libertas: Added callback functions to support SDIO suspend/resume.
In suspend() host sleep is activated using already configured
host sleep parameters through wol command, and in resume() host
sleep is cancelled. Earlier priv->fw_ready flag used to reset and
set in suspend and resume handler respectively. Since after suspend
only host goes into sleep state and firmware is always ready, those
changes in flag state are removed.

08578b8f16 ath9k: enable the baseband watchdog events for AR9003
This enables the baseband watchdog events for the AR9003
family on ath9k. Upon an a baseband watchdog interrupt we reset
the hardware, this should address corner case conditions where
normal operation can stall. Enable ATH_DBG_RESET to be able
to review details of the bb watchdog interrupt once it happens.
If you're curious how often this happens just grep the debugfs
interrupt file.

What this patch does is it removes two receive frame hooks (for bridge and for
macvlan) from __netif_receive_skb. These are replaced them with a single

sense to do bridging and macvlan on the same device.

Then a network driver (of virtual netdev like macvlan or bridge) can register
an rx_handler for needed net device.

ceb3d23945 korina: fix deadlock on RX FIFO overrun
By calling korina_restart(), the IRQ handler tries to disable the
interrupt it's currently serving. This leads to a deadlock since
disable_irq() waits for any running IRQ handlers to finish before
returning. This patch addresses the issue by turning korina_restart()
into a workqueue task, which is then scheduled when needed.

Reproducing the deadlock is easily done using e.g. GNU netcat to send
large amounts of UDP data to the host running this driver.

Note that the same problem (and fix) applies to TX FIFO underruns, but
apparently these are less easy to trigger.

614f60fa9d packet_mmap: expose hw packet timestamps to network packet capture utilities
This patch adds a setting, PACKET_TIMESTAMP, to specify the packet
timestamp source that is exported to capture utilities like tcpdump by
packet_mmap.

PACKET_TIMESTAMP accepts the same integer bit field as
SO_TIMESTAMPING.  However, only the SOF_TIMESTAMPING_SYS_HARDWARE and
SOF_TIMESTAMPING_RAW_HARDWARE values are currently recognized by
PACKET_TIMESTAMP.  SOF_TIMESTAMPING_SYS_HARDWARE takes precedence over
SOF_TIMESTAMPING_RAW_HARDWARE if both bits are set.

If PACKET_TIMESTAMP is not set, a software timestamp generated inside
the networking stack is used (the behavior before this setting was
added).

7dad171c39 vxge: Fix checkstack warning in vxge_probe()
Linux 2.6.33 reports this checkstack warning:

drivers/net/vxge/vxge-main.c: In function 'vxge_probe':
drivers/net/vxge/vxge-main.c:4409: warning: the frame size of 1028 bytes is larger than 1024 bytes

This warning does not occur in the latest linux-2.6 or linux-next, however,
when I do a 'make -j32 CONFIG_FRAME_WARN=512' instead of 1024 I see

drivers/net/vxge/vxge-main.c: In function ‘vxge_probe’:
drivers/net/vxge/vxge-main.c:4423: warning: the frame size of 1024 bytes is larger than 512 bytes

This patch moves the large vxge_config struct off the stack.

38454db3f0 mac8390: propagate error code from request_irq
Use the request_irq() error code as the return value for mac8390_open().
EAGAIN doesn't make sense for Nubus slot IRQs. Only this driver can claim
this IRQ (until the NIC is removed, which means everything is powered
down).

79640a4ca6 net: add additional lock to qdisc to increase throughput
When many cpus compete for sending frames on a given qdisc, the qdisc
spinlock suffers from very high contention.

The cpu owning __QDISC_STATE_RUNNING bit has same priority to acquire
the lock, and cannot dequeue packets fast enough, since it must wait for
this lock for each dequeued packet.

One solution to this problem is to force all cpus spinning on a second
lock before trying to get the main lock, when/if they see
__QDISC_STATE_RUNNING already set.

The owning cpu then compete with at most one other cpu for the main
lock, allowing for higher dequeueing rate.

Based on a previous patch from Alexander Duyck. I added the heuristic to
avoid the atomic in fast path, and put the new lock far away from the
cache line used by the dequeue worker. Also try to release the busylock
lock as late as possible.

Tests with following script gave a boost from ~50.000 pps to ~600.000
pps on a dual quad core machine (E5450 @3.00GHz), tg3 driver.
(A single netperf flow can reach ~800.000 pps on this platform)

for j in `seq 0 3`; do
  for i in `seq 0 7`; do
    netperf -H 192.168.0.1 -t UDP_STREAM -l 60 -N -T $i -- -m 6 &
  done
