netback is the host side counterpart to the frontend driver in
drivers/net/xen-netfront.c. The PV protocol is also implemented by
frontend drivers in other OSes too, such as the BSDs and even Windows.
The patch is based on the driver from the xen.git pvops kernel tree but
has been put through the checkpatch.pl wringer plus several manual
cleanup passes and review iterations. The driver has been moved from
drivers/xen/netback to drivers/net/xen-netback.
One major change from xen.git is that the guest transmit path (i.e. what
looks like receive to netback) has been significantly reworked to remove
the dependency on the out of tree PageForeign page flag (a core kernel
patch which enables a per page destructor callback on the final
put_page). This page flag was used in order to implement a grant map
based transmit path (where guest pages are mapped directly into SKB
frags). Instead this version of netback uses grant copy operations into
regular memory belonging to the backend domain. Reinstating the grant
map functionality is something which I would like to revisit in the
future.
Note that this driver depends on 2e820f58f7 "xen/irq: implement
bind_interdomain_evtchn_to_irqhandler for backend drivers" which is in
linux next via the "xen-two" tree and is intended for the 2.6.39 merge
window:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen.git stable/backends
this branch has only that single commit since 2.6.38-rc2 and is safe for
cross merging into the net branch.

This change adds the first network driver for the tile architecture,

The infrastructure is present for the TILE-Gx networking drivers (another
three source files in the new directory) but for now the the actual
tilegx sources are waiting on releasing hardware to initial customers.
Note that arch/tile/include/hv/* are "upstream" headers from the

interface to this hardware block remains pretty nicely consistent across these
devices.

Davinci's MDIO controller is present on other TI devices, without an
accompanying EMAC. For example, on tnetv107x, the same MDIO module is used in
conjunction with a 3-port switch hardware.
By separating the MDIO controller code into its own platform driver, this
patch allows common logic to be reused on such platforms.

PPP: introduce "pptp" module which implements point-to-point tunneling protocol using pppox framework
NET: introduce the "gre" module for demultiplexing GRE packets on version criteria
(required to pptp and ip_gre may coexists)
NET: ip_gre: update to use the "gre" module
This patch introduces then pptp support to the linux kernel which
dramatically speeds up pptp vpn connections and decreases cpu usage in
comparison of existing user-space implementation
(poptop/pptpclient). There is accel-pptp project
(https://sourceforge.net/projects/accel-pptp/) to utilize this module,
it contains plugin for pppd to use pptp in client-mode and modified
pptpd (poptop) to build high-performance pptp NAS.
There was many changes from initial submitted patch, most important are:
1. using rcu instead of read-write locks
2. using static bitmap instead of dynamically allocated
3. using vmalloc for memory allocation instead of BITS_PER_LONG + __get_free_pages
4. fixed many coding style issues

In order to use macvlan with qemu and other tools that require
a tap file descriptor, the macvtap driver adds a small backend
with a character device with the same interface as the tun
driver, with a minimum set of features.
Macvtap interfaces are created in the same way as macvlan
interfaces using ip link, but the netif is just used as a
handle for configuration and accounting, while the data
goes through the chardev. Each macvtap interface has its
own character device, simplifying permission management
significantly over the generic tun/tap driver.

This patch adds support for the Xilinx ll_temac 10/100/1000 Ethernet
device. The ll_temac ipcore is typically used on Xilinx Virtex and
Spartan designs attached to either a PowerPC 4xx or Microblaze
processor.
At the present moment, this driver only works with Virtex5 PowerPC
designs because it assumes DCR is used to access the DMA registers.
However, the low level access to DMA registers is abstracted and
it should be easy to adapt for the other implementations.
I'm posting this driver now as an RFC. There are still some things that
need to be tightened up, but it does appear to be stable.
Derived from driver code written by Yoshio Kashiwagi and David H. Lynch Jr.

resources with the 82576 physical function contained within the igb
driver.
To spawn virtual functions from the igb driver all that is needed is to
enable CONFIG_PCI_IOV and have an 82576 Ethernet adapter on a system that
supports SR-IOV in the BIOS. The virtual functions will appear after the
interface is loaded.
