This patch uses notifier blocks to implement a network event
notifier mechanism.
Clients register their callback function by calling
register_netevent_notifier() like this:
static struct notifier_block nb = {
.notifier_call = my_callback_func
};
...
register_netevent_notifier(&nb);

Replace expressions of the form "100 * size/rate" by tc_calc_xmittime().
The CBQ case deserves an extra comment: when called with bnwd=rate
tc_cbq_calc_maxidle behaves identical to tc_calc_xmittime, so use it

[IPROUTE]: Introduce tc_calc_xmitsize and use where appropriate
Add tc_calc_xmitsize() as complement to tc_calc_xmittime(), which calculates
the size than can be transmitted at a given rate during a given time.
Replace all expressions of the form "size =
rate*tc_core_tick2usec(time))/100"

I was running through the kernel janitors TODO list
(http://janitor.kernelnewbies.org/TODO) and thought I'd try to find
something easy for my first attempt at kernel hacking/maintenance.
The "Balancing Function" header suggests that all net_device interrupt
functions should use dev_kfree_skb_i

Hi,
I've got another ixgb driver bug I'm struggling with; clues or hints
appreciated.
I've got a patch for PCI error recovery for the ixgb, which works on
many older kernels but seems to be broken on linux-2.6.17-rc6-mm2
(which is ixgb version 1.0.109). After performing a PCI reset on the

Jeff,
I will address all of your points in my next post.

Minor janitorial patch: use #defines for literal values.

These are fixes for d80211 drivers to work after last d80211 patches. Note
that bcm43xx-d80211 TX flow patch is still incomplete.
