2013-05-08B43: Handle DMA RX descriptor underrunThommy Jakobsson
Add handling of rx descriptor underflow. This fixes a fault that could happen on slow machines, where data is received faster than the CPU can handle. In such a case the device will use up all rx descriptors and refuse to send any more data before confirming that it is ok. This patch enables necessary interrupt to discover such a situation and will handle them by dropping everything in the ring buffer.

Pull networking updates from David Miller: "Highlights (1721 non-merge commits, this has to be a record of some sort): 1) Add 'random' mode to team driver, from Jiri Pirko and Eric Dumazet. 2) Make it so that any driver that supports configuration of multiple MAC addresses can provide the forwarding database add and del calls by providing a default implementation and hooking that up if the driver doesn't have an explicit set of handlers.

The be2net driver had a bug fix in 'net' that overlapped with the VLAN interface changes by Patrick McHardy in net-next. An IGB conflict existed because in 'net' the build_skb() support was reverted, and in 'net-next' there was a comment style fix within that code. Several batman-adv conflicts were resolved by making sure that all calls to batadv_is_my_mac() are changed to have a new bat_priv first argument. Eric Dumazet's TS ECR fix in TCP in 'net' conflicted with the F-RTO rewrite in 'net-next', mostly overlapping changes.

2013-03-27b43: N-PHY: use more bits for offset in RSSI calibrationRafał Miłecki
When calculating "offset" for final RSSI calibration we're using numbers bigger than s8 can hold. We have for example: offset[j] = 232 - poll_results[j]; formula. If poll_results[j] is small enough (it usually is) we treat number's bit as a sign bit. For example 232 - 1 becomes: 0xE8 - 0x1 = 0xE7, which is not 231 but -25. This code was introduced in e0c9a0219a8f542e3946fe972a68aacf8c3f906c and caused stability regression on some cards, for ex. BCM4322.

2013-03-27b43: A fix for DMA transmission sequence errorsIestyn C. Elfick
Intermittently, b43 will report "Out of order TX status report on DMA ring". When this happens, the driver must be reset before communication can resume. The cause of the problem is believed to be an error in the closed-source firmware; however, all versions of the firmware are affected. This change uses the observation that the expected status is always 2 less than the observed value, and supplies a fake status report to skip one header/data pair. Not all devices suffer from this problem, but it can occur several times per second under heavy load. As each occurence kills the unmodified driver, this patch makes if possible for the affected devices to function. The patch logs only the first instance of the reset operation to prevent spamming the logs.

2013-03-27b43: N-PHY: increase initial value of "mind" in RSSI calibrationRafał Miłecki
We're using "mind" variable to find the VCM that got the best polling results. For each VCM we calculte "currd" which is compared to the "mind". For PHY rev3+ "currd" gets values around 14k-40k. Looking for a value smaller than 40 makes no sense, so increase the initial value. This fixes a regression introduced in 3.4 by commit: e0c9a0219a8f542e3946fe972a68aacf8c3f906c (my BCM4322 performance dropped from 18,4Mb/s to 9,26Mb/s) Signed-off-by: Rafał Miłecki <zajec5@gmail.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: John W.
