Despite Westwood's theoretical advantages, in nearly
every benchmark we ran last year, TCP cubic won, whether it be
on correct RTT estimates, amount of buffering, responsiveness,
etc. on current hardware and software designs.
(both need timestamps on to work well, besides)
TCP cubic is better maintained and understood than westwood,
also.
While a scenario where westwood would win possibly exists,
there is too much buffering in the wifi stack in particular
at present, to see any improvement.
If you wish to exercise various TCPs under contention,
the current svn head of netperf (2.6) has options to switch
congestion control agorithms on the fly, as does iperf.

A year of testing in the cerowrt project shows not using timestamps
to be a very bad idea in nearly any TCP at speeds above a few Mbit.
Lastly sack/dsack help on recovery from larger amounts of packet
loss.

Hardware filtering must always be enabled as long as there is an Ethernet
device registered, and use device tree for setting the link activity and
buffer shifting enable/disable bit.

This caused stalls in the Ethernet DMA block, so until properly
written and sorted out, fallback to the assembly version instead.

This target currently only supports Moschip's MCS8140 SoC, but support
for other chips in the same family (MCS8142, MCS8144) will be easy to add.
Target support is entirely using Device Tree for probing peripherals.
Drivers support include:
- PCI
- USB 1 & 2
- watchdog
- random number generator
- UART
- timer
- internal Ethernet PHY
- Ethernet MAC core
Support for the following boards is included using Device Tree
- Devolo dLAN USB Extender
- Tigal RBT-832

This patch helps properly detect a WNDRMAC device. Before this
patch the model is detected as "NETGEAR ?????????N".

This adds kmod-leds-wndr3700-usb package to a default build for
WNDR3700, WNDR3800 and WNDRMAC in order to support the green USB LED.

Compilation fails on older systems due to missing syscalls, and the
e4defrag tool is not used by the build-system anyway.

This patch adds support for the Korean made Petatel PSR-680W Wireless CDMA Router.
The platform is based on Ralink RT3052.
