openvswitch: Drop packets when interdev is not up

2014-11-06T07:52:35Z

If the internal device is not up, it should drop received packets. Sometimes it receive the broadcast or multicast packets, and the ip protocol stack will casue more cpu usage wasted. Signed-off-by: Chunhe Li Signed-off-by: Pravin B Shelar

ovs: Turn vports with dependencies into separate modules

2014-10-28T18:43:18Z

The internal and netdev vport remain part of openvswitch.ko. Encap vports including vxlan, gre, and geneve can be built as separate modules and are loaded on demand. Modules can be unloaded after use. Datapath ports keep a reference to the vport module during their lifetime. Allows to remove the error prone maintenance of the global list vport_ops_list.

net: set name_assign_type in alloc_netdev()

2014-07-15T23:12:48Z

Extend alloc_netdev{,_mq{,s}}() to take name_assign_type as argument, and convert all users to pass NET_NAME_UNKNOWN.

net: get rid of SET_ETHTOOL_OPS

2014-05-13T21:43:20Z

net: get rid of SET_ETHTOOL_OPS Dave Miller mentioned he'd like to see SET_ETHTOOL_OPS gone. This does that. Mostly done via coccinelle script: @@ struct ethtool_ops *ops; struct net_device *dev; @@ - SET_ETHTOOL_OPS(dev, ops); + dev->ethtool_ops = ops; Compile tested only, but I'd seriously wonder if this broke anything.
