![]() Pull networking updates from David Miller: 1) BPF debugger and asm tool by Daniel Borkmann. 2) Speed up create/bind in AF_PACKET, also from Daniel Borkmann. 3) Correct reciprocal_divide and update users, from Hannes Frederic Sowa and Daniel Borkmann. 4) Currently we only have a "set" operation for the hw timestamp socket ioctl, add a "get" operation to match. From Ben Hutchings. 5) Add better trace events for debugging driver datapath problems, also from Ben Hutchings. 6) Implement auto corking in TCP, from Eric Dumazet. Basically, if we have a small send and a previous packet is already in the qdisc or device queue, defer until TX completion or we get more data. 7) Allow userspace to manage ipv6 temporary addresses, from Jiri Pirko. 8) Add a qdisc bypass option for AF_PACKET sockets, from Daniel Borkmann. 9) Share IP header compression code between Bluetooth and IEEE802154 layers, from Jukka Rissanen. 10) Fix ipv6 router reachability probing, from Jiri Benc. 11) Allow packets to be captured on macvtap devices, from Vlad Yasevich. 12) Support tunneling in GRO layer, from Jerry Chu. 13) Allow bonding to be configured fully using netlink, from Scott Feldman. 14) Allow AF_PACKET users to obtain the VLAN TPID, just like they can already get the TCI. From Atzm Watanabe. 15) New "Heavy Hitter" qdisc, from Terry Lam. 16) Significantly improve the IPSEC support in pktgen, from Fan Du. 17) Allow ipv4 tunnels to cache routes, just like sockets. From Tom Herbert. 18) Add Proportional Integral Enhanced packet scheduler, from Vijay Subramanian. 19) Allow openvswitch to mmap'd netlink, from Thomas Graf. 20) Key TCP metrics blobs also by source address, not just destination address. From Christoph Paasch. 21) Support 10G in generic phylib. From Andy Fleming. 22) Try to short-circuit GRO flow compares using device provided RX hash, if provided. From Tom Herbert. The wireless and netfilter folks have been busy little bees too. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next: (2064 commits) net/cxgb4: Fix referencing freed adapter ipv6: reallocate addrconf router for ipv6 address when lo device up fib_frontend: fix possible NULL pointer dereference rtnetlink: remove IFLA_BOND_SLAVE definition rtnetlink: remove check for fill_slave_info in rtnl_have_link_slave_info qlcnic: update version to 5.3.55 qlcnic: Enhance logic to calculate msix vectors. qlcnic: Refactor interrupt coalescing code for all adapters. qlcnic: Update poll controller code path qlcnic: Interrupt code cleanup qlcnic: Enhance Tx timeout debugging. qlcnic: Use bool for rx_mac_learn. bonding: fix u64 division rtnetlink: add missing IFLA_BOND_AD_INFO_UNSPEC sfc: Use the correct maximum TX DMA ring size for SFC9100 Add Shradha Shah as the sfc driver maintainer. net/vxlan: Share RX skb de-marking and checksum checks with ovs tulip: cleanup by using ARRAY_SIZE() ip_tunnel: clear IPCB in ip_tunnel_xmit() in case dst_link_failure() is called net/cxgb4: Don't retrieve stats during recovery ... |

OZWPAN USB Host Controller Driver --------------------------------- This driver is a USB HCD driver that does not have an associated a physical device but instead uses Wi-Fi to communicate with the wireless peripheral. The USB requests are converted into a layer 2 network protocol and transmitted on the network using an ethertype (0x892e) regestered to Ozmo Device Inc. This driver is compatible with existing wireless devices that use Ozmo Devices technology. To operate the driver must be bound to a suitable network interface. This can be done when the module is loaded (specifying the name of the network interface as a parameter - e.g. 'insmod ozwpan g_net_dev=go0') or can be bound after loading using an ioctl call. See the ozappif.h file and the ioctls OZ_IOCTL_ADD_BINDING and OZ_IOCTL_REMOVE_BINDING. The devices connect to the host use Wi-Fi Direct so a network card that supports Wi-Fi direct is required. A recent version (0.8.x or later) version of the wpa_supplicant can be used to setup the network interface to create a persistent autonomous group (for older pre-WFD peripherals) or put in a listen state to allow group negotiation to occur for more recent devices that support WFD. The protocol used over the network does not directly mimic the USB bus transactions as this would be rather busy and inefficient. Instead the chapter 9 requests are converted into a request/response pair of messages. (See ozprotocol.h for data structures used in the protocol).
