We don't have to start a transaction in writepage() when all the blocks
are a properly allocated. Even in ordered mode either the data has been
written via write() and they are thus already added to transaction's list
or the data was written via mmap and then it's random in which transaction
they get written anyway.

Enlarge default dirty ratios from 5/10 to 10/20. This fixes [Bug
#12809] iozone regression with 2.6.29-rc6.
The iozone benchmarks are performed on a 1200M file, with 8GB ram.
iozone -i 0 -i 1 -i 2 -i 3 -i 4 -r 4k -s 64k -s 512m -s 1200m -b tmp.xls
iozone -B -r 4k -s 64k -s 512m -s 1200m -b tmp.xls
The performance regression is triggered by commit 1cf6e7d83bf3(mm: task
dirty accounting fix), which makes more correct/thorough dirty
accounting.
The default 5/10 dirty ratios were picked (a) with the old dirty logic
and (b) largely at random and (c) designed to be aggressive. In
particular, that (a) means that having fixed some of the dirty
accounting, maybe the real bug is now that it was always too aggressive,
just hidden by an accounting issue.
The enlarged 10/20 dirty ratios are just about enough to fix the regression.
[ We will have to look at how this affects the old fsync() latency issue,
but that probably will need independent work. - Linus ]

$ losetup /dev/loop0 file
$ losetup -o 32256 /dev/loop1 /dev/loop0
$ losetup -d /dev/loop1
$ losetup -d /dev/loop0
triggers a [ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ]
I think this warning is a false positive.
Open/close on a loop device acquires bd_mutex of the device before
acquiring lo_ctl_mutex of the same device. For ioctl(LOOP_CLR_FD) after
acquiring lo_ctl_mutex, fput on the backing_file might acquire the bd_mutex of
a device, if backing file is a device and this is the last reference to the
file being dropped . But it is guaranteed that it is impossible to have a
circular list of backing devices.(say loop2->loop1->loop0->loop2 is not
possible), which guarantees that this can never deadlock.
So this warning should be suppressed. It is very difficult to annotate lockdep
not to warn here in the correct way. A simple way to silence lockdep could be
to mark the lo_ctl_mutex in ioctl to be a sub class, but this might mask some
other real bugs.

switch (cmd) {
case LOOP_SET_FD:

Or actually marking the bd_mutex after lo_ctl_mutex as a sub class could be
a better solution.
Luckily it is easy to avoid calling fput on backing file with lo_ctl_mutex
held, so no lockdep annotation is required.
If you do not like the special handling of the lo_ctl_mutex just for the
LOOP_CLR_FD ioctl in lo_ioctl(), the mutex handling could be moved inside
each of the individual ioctl handlers and I could send you another patch.

e1000e (and e1000, igb, ixgbe, ixgb) all do a series of operations each
time a multicast address is added. The flow goes something like
1) stack adds one multicast address
2) stack passes whole current list of unicast and multicast addresses to
driver
3) driver clears entire list in hardware
4) driver programs each multicast address using iomem in a loop
This was causing multicast packets to be lost during the reprogramming
process.
reference with test program:
http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-netdev/2009/3/14/5160514/thread
Thanks to Dave Boutcher for his report and test program.
This driver fix prepares an array all at once in memory and programs it in
one shot to the hardware, not requiring an "erase" cycle. It would still
be possible for packets to be dropped while the receiver is off during
reprogramming.

This patch fixes the declaration of the logger structure in ebt_log
and ebt_ulog: I forgot to remove the const option from their declaration
in the commit ca735b3aaa ("netfilter:
use a linked list of loggers").

this is in regards to
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12876
where it appears that e1000 can leave its interrupt enabled after
exiting the driver. Fix the bug by making the interrupt enable
paths more aware of the driver exiting.
Thanks to Alan Cox for the poke and initial investigation.

The tx cleanup routine was stopping after 64 packets and this was causing
issues resulting in the ring not being completely cleaned.
This change updates the driver to clean the entire ring and if it doesn't
it then will retry on the next pass.

This patch changes the dma mapping to better support
skb_dma_map/skb_dma_unmap and addresses and redefines the tx hang logic to
be based off of time stamp instead of if the dma field is populated

This fixes an crash when empty bond device is added to a bridge.
If an interface with invalid ethernet address (all zero) is added
to a bridge, then bridge code detects it when setting up the forward
databas entry. But the error unwind is broken, the bridge port object
can get freed twice: once when ref count went to zeo, and once by kfree.
Since object is never really accessible, just free it.

I've hit an issue on my system when I've been using RealTek RTL8139D cards in
bonding interface in mode balancing-alb. When I enslave a card, the current
active slave (bond->curr_active_slave) is not set and the link is therefore
not functional.
----
# cat /proc/net/bonding/bond0
Ethernet Channel Bonding Driver: v3.5.0 (November 4, 2008)

The thing that gets it right is when I unplug the cable and then I put it back
into the NIC. Then the current active slave is set to eth1 and link is working
just fine. Here is dmesg log with bonding DEBUG messages turned on:

The current active slave is set by calling bond_select_active_slave() function
from bond_miimon_commit() function when the slave (eth1) link goes to state up.
I also tested this on other machine with Broadcom NetXtreme II BCM5708
1000Base-T NIC and there all works fine. The thing is that this adapter is down
and goes up after few seconds after it is enslaved.
This patch calls bond_select_active_slave() in bond_enslave() function for modes
alb and tlb and makes sure that the current active slave is set up properly even
when the slave state is already up. Tested on both systems, works fine.
Notice: The same problem can maybe also occrur in mode 8023AD but I'm unable to
test that.

Gianfar uses a hardware header FCB for offloading. However when used
with bridging or IP forwarding, TX skb might not have enough headroom
for the FCB. Reallocate skb for such cases.
