net: remove redundant sched/ in net/Makefile

2009-07-13T03:11:14+00:00

Remove redundant sched/ in net/Makefile.

sched/ is contained in previous:
obj-$(CONFIG_NET) += ethernet/ 802/ sched/ netlink/,
so the later
obj-$(CONFIG_NET_SCHED) += sched/
isn't necessary.

net: add IEEE 802.15.4 socket family implementation

2009-06-09T12:25:32+00:00

Add support for communication over IEEE 802.15.4 networks. This implementation
is neither certified nor complete, but aims to that goal. This commit contains
only the socket interface for communication over IEEE 802.15.4 networks.
One can either send RAW datagrams or use SOCK_DGRAM to encapsulate data
inside normal IEEE 802.15.4 packets.

Configuration interface, drivers and software MAC 802.15.4 implementation will
follow.

Initial implementation was done by Maxim Gorbachyov, Maxim Osipov and Pavel
Smolensky as a research project at Siemens AG. Later the stack was heavily
reworked to better suit the linux networking model, and is now maitained
as an open project partially sponsored by Siemens.

wimax: Makefile, Kconfig and docbook linkage for the stack

2009-01-07T18:00:17+00:00

This patch provides Makefile and KConfig for the WiMAX stack,
integrating them into the networking stack's Makefile, Kconfig and
doc-book templates.

DCB: fix kconfig option

2008-11-25T09:02:08+00:00

Since the netlink option for DCB is necessary to actually be useful,
simplified the Kconfig option.  In addition, added useful help text for the
Kconfig option.

net/ieee80211 -> drivers/net/ipw2x00/libipw_* rename

2008-11-21T16:08:18+00:00

The old ieee80211 code only remains as a support library for the ipw2100
and ipw2200 drivers.  So, move the code and rename it appropriately to
reflects it's true purpose and status.

ixgbe: this patch adds support for DCB to the kernel and ixgbe driver

2008-11-21T04:52:10+00:00

This adds support for Data Center Bridging (DCB) features in the ixgbe
driver and adds an rtnetlink interface for configuring DCB to the
kernel.  The DCB feature support included are Priority Grouping (PG) -
which allows bandwidth guarantees to be allocated to groups to traffic
based on the 802.1q priority, and Priority Based Flow Control (PFC) -
which introduces a new MAC control PAUSE frame which works at
granularity of the 802.1p priority instead of the link (IEEE 802.3x).

net: Distributed Switch Architecture protocol support

2008-10-09T00:15:19+00:00

Distributed Switch Architecture is a protocol for managing hardware
switch chips.  It consists of a set of MII management registers and
commands to configure the switch, and an ethernet header format to
signal which of the ports of the switch a packet was received from
or is intended to be sent to.

The switches that this driver supports are typically embedded in
access points and routers, and a typical setup with a DSA switch
looks something like this:

	+-----------+       +-----------+
	|           | RGMII |           |
	|           +-------+           +------ 1000baseT MDI ("WAN")
	|           |       |  6-port   +------ 1000baseT MDI ("LAN1")
	|    CPU    |       |  ethernet +------ 1000baseT MDI ("LAN2")
	|           |MIImgmt|  switch   +------ 1000baseT MDI ("LAN3")
	|           +-------+  w/5 PHYs +------ 1000baseT MDI ("LAN4")
	|           |       |           |
	+-----------+       +-----------+

The switch driver presents each port on the switch as a separate
network interface to Linux, polls the switch to maintain software
link state of those ports, forwards MII management interface
accesses to those network interfaces (e.g. as done by ethtool) to
the switch, and exposes the switch's hardware statistics counters
via the appropriate Linux kernel interfaces.

This initial patch supports the MII management interface register
layout of the Marvell 88E6123, 88E6161 and 88E6165 switch chips, and
supports the "Ethertype DSA" packet tagging format.

(There is no officially registered ethertype for the Ethertype DSA
packet format, so we just grab a random one.  The ethertype to use
is programmed into the switch, and the switch driver uses the value
of ETH_P_EDSA for this, so this define can be changed at any time in
the future if the one we chose is allocated to another protocol or
if Ethertype DSA gets its own officially registered ethertype, and
everything will continue to work.)

vlan: uninline __vlan_hwaccel_rx

2008-07-08T10:23:36+00:00

The function is huge and included at least once in every VLAN acceleration
capable driver. Uninline it; to avoid having drivers depend on the VLAN
module, the function is always built in statically when VLAN is enabled.

With all VLAN acceleration capable drivers that build on x86_64 enabled,
this results in:

   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
