Change netem to support packets getting reordered because of variations in
delay. Introduce a special case version of FIFO that queues packets in order
based on the netem delay.
Since netem is classful, those users that don't want jitter based reordering
can just insert a pfifo instead of the default.
This required changes to generic skbuff code to allow finer grain manipulation
of sk_buff_head. Insertion into the middle and reverse walk.

Some visually impaired people use hardware devices which directly read
the vga screen. When newt for instance asks to hide the cursor for
better visual aspect, the kernel puts the vga cursor out of the screen,
so that the cursor position can't be read by the hardware device. This
is a great loss for such people.
Here is a patch which uses the same technique as CUR_NONE for hiding the
cursor while still moving it.
Mario, you should apply it to the speakup kernel for access floppies
asap. I'll submit a 2.4 patch too.

Statically allocated devices in module data is a potential cause
of oopsen. The device may be in use by a userspace process, which
will keep a reference to the device. If the module is unloaded,
the module data will be freed. Subsequent use of the platform
device will cause a kernel oops.

Introduces a new flag TC_RED_HARDDROP which specifies that if ECN
marking is enabled packets should still be dropped once the
average queue length exceeds the maximum threshold.
This _may_ help to avoid global synchronisation during small
bursts of peers advertising but not caring about ECN. Use this
option very carefully, it does more harm than good if
(qth_max - qth_min) does not cover at least two average burst
cycles.
The difference to the current behaviour, in which we'd run into
the hard queue limit, is that due to the low pass filter of RED
short bursts are less likely to cause a global synchronisation.

Introduces a new red parameter set for use in equalize mode,
although only the qavg variable and the idle period marker are
being used for now this makes it possible to allow a separate
parameter set to be used for equalize later on.

an idle period in gred_drop() which did start an idle period
on the default VQ even if equalize mode was disabled.

Introduces a flags variable using bitops and transforms eqp to use
it. Converts the conditions of the form (wred && rio) to (wred)
since wred can only be enabled in rio mode anyway.
The patch also improves WRED mode detection. The current behaviour
does not allow WRED mode to be turned off again without removing
the whole qdisc first. The new algorithm checks each VQ against
each other looking for equal priorities every time a VQ is changed
or added. The performance is poor, O(n**2), but it's used only
during administrative tasks and the number of VQs is strictly
limited.

Adds a phy_mask field to struct mii_bus and uses it. This field
indicates each phy address to be ignored when probing the mdio bus.
This support is needed for the fs_enet and ibm_emac drivers to be

lock up on probing certain phy addresses or probing doesn't return
0xffff when nothing is found at the address. A new driver I'm

Hi,
This patch provides dynamic two buffer-mode and 3 buffer-mode options.
Previously 2 buffer-mode was compilation option. Now with this patch applied
one can load driver in 2 buffer-mode with module-load parameter
ie.
#insmod s2io.ko rx_ring_mode=2
This patch also provides 3 buffer-mode which provides header separation
functionality. In 3 buffer-mode skb->data will have L2/L3/L4 headers and
"skb_shinfo(skb)->frag_list->data" will have have L4 payload.
one can load driver in 3 buffer-mode with same above module-load parameter
