Hi all,
The random seg faults on x86_64 is interesting as I have been getting
random illegal instruction faults on sparc (sun4c) with 2.6.22-rc3. I have
not yet tried to track it down. All I know at present is that it is not a
problem on 2.6.20.9.

Remove the initial slow start override from TCP cubic.
The old code caused Cubic to start out in slow start mode, which
is less agressive but caused slow performance.
The administrator can override initial slow start threshold on any

Hi Stephen,
these patches add support for the rtnl_link stuff and VLAN configuration
to iproute. Since the old link configuration was entirely ioctl based and
mixing the two would be really ugly, this patch keeps the old ioctl stuff
guarded by an ifdef (defaults to enabled) and probes for support
Hi,
I was testing 2.6.22-rc4 from yesterday,
but communication speed of 8139 side is very slower
than 2.6.21.* (less than 10kbytes/sec at
100MBPS,FULL-DUPLEX).
I was not test from 2.6.22-rc ,yesterday I started to test 2.6.22-rc.
So, I *must* set HALF-DUPLEX to 8139 side below:

Move some device initialization code to new dev->init callback to make
it shareable with netlink. Additionally this fixes a minor bug, dev->iflink
is set after registration, which causes an incorrect value in the initial

[VLAN]: Move vlan_group allocation to seperate function
Move group allocation to a seperate function to clean up the code a bit
and allocate groups before registering the device. Device registration
is globally visible and causes netlink events, so we shouldn't fail
afterwards.

Hi Dave,
these are the updated rtnl_link API patches and dummy, ifb and VLAN
conversions. The documentation is not quite done yet, I'll finish
it when I find some spare time.
Changes since the last post:
- fix attribute parsing after module load
- fix module aliases
- refuse all unsupported opti
