500530f Tejun Heo 03 July 2006, 07:07:27 UTC [PATCH] libata: reimplement controller-wide PM Reimplement controller-wide PM. ata_host_set_suspend/resume() are defined to suspend and resume a host_set. While suspended, EHs for all ports in the host_set are pegged using ATA_FLAG_SUSPENDED and frozen. Because SCSI device hotplug is done asynchronously against the rest of libata EH and the same mutex is used when adding new device, suspend cannot wait for hotplug to complete. So, if SCSI device hotplug is in progress, suspend fails with -EBUSY. In most cases, host_set resume is followed by device resume. As each resume operation requires a reset, a single host_set-wide resume operation may result in multiple resets. To avoid this, resume waits upto 1 second giving PM to request resume for devices.

d6f26d1 Tejun Heo 03 July 2006, 07:07:26 UTC [PATCH] libata: reimplement per-dev PM Reimplement per-dev PM. The original implementation directly put the device into suspended mode and didn't synchronize w/ EH operations including hotplug. This patch reimplements ata_scsi_device_suspend() and ata_scsi_device_resume() such that they request EH to perform the respective operations. Both functions synchronize with hotplug such that it doesn't operate on detached devices. Suspend waits for completion but resume just issues request and returns. This allows parallel wake up of devices and thus speeds up system resume. Due to sdev detach synchronization, it's not feasible to separate out EH requesting from sdev handling; thus, ata_device_suspend/resume() are removed and everything is implemented in the respective libata-scsi functions.

02670bf Tejun Heo 03 July 2006, 07:07:26 UTC [PATCH] libata: implement PM EH actions Implement two PM per-dev EH actions - ATA_EH_SUSPEND and ATA_EH_RESUME. Each action puts the target device into suspended mode and resumes from it respectively. Once a device is put to suspended mode, no EH operations other than RESUME is allowed on the device. The device will stay suspended till it gets resumed and thus reset and revalidated. To implement this, a new device state helper - ata_dev_ready() - is implemented and used in EH action implementations to make them operate only on attached & running devices. If all possible devices on a port are suspended, reset is skipped too. This prevents spurious events including hotplug events from disrupting suspended devices.

Rename to more generic names and implement param selection helper sata_ehc_deb_timing() which uses EHI_HOTPLUGGED to select params. Combined with the previous EHI_RESUME_LINK differentiation, this makes parameter selection accurate. e.g. user scan resumes link but normal deb param is used instead of hotplug param.

This used to be implied by ATA_EHI_HOTPLUGGED. However, hotplug isn't the only event which requires link resume and separating this out allows other places to request link resume. This differentiation also allows better debounce timing selection. This patch converts user scan to use ATA_EHI_RESUME_LINK.

Now that &ap->host_set->lock is replaced with ap->lock, there's no reason to keep ap_lock. [ed. note: that's not entirely true. ap_lock is a local variable, caching the results of a de-ref. In theory, if the compiler is smart enough, this patch is cosmetic. However, since this is not a fast path (it is the error path), this patch is nonetheless acceptable, even though it _may_ introduce a performance regression.] Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org> 06 July 2006, 02:05:34 UTC

While legal in theory, in practice it should only be done if the hardware is really old and has some very high overhead in its ISR. (such as PIO IDE) For modern hardware, running ISRs with irqs enabled is discouraged, because 1) new hardware is fast enough to not cause latency problems 2) allowing the nesting of hardware interrupts only 'spreads out' the handling of the current ISR, causing extra cachemisses that would otherwise not happen. Furthermore, on architectures where ISRs share the kernel stacks, enabling interrupts in ISRs introduces a much higher kernel-stack-nesting and thus kernel-stack-overflow risk. 3) not managing irq-flags via the _irqsave / _irqrestore variants is dangerous: it's easy to forget whether one function nests inside another, and irq flags might be mismanaged. In the few cases where re-enabling interrupts in an ISR is considered useful (and unavoidable), it has to be taught to the lock validator explicitly (because the lock validator needs the "no ISR ever enables hardirqs" artificial simplification to keep the IRQ/softirq locking dependencies manageable). This teaching is done via the explicit use local_irq_enable_in_hardirq(). On a stock kernel this maps to local_irq_enable(). If the lock validator is enabled then this does not enable interrupts. Now, the analysis of drivers/net/ns83820.c's irq flags use: the irq-enabling in irq context seems intentional, but i dont think it's justified. Furthermore, the driver suffers from problem #3 above too, in ns83820_tx_timeout() it disables irqs via local_irq_save(), but then it calls do_tx_done() which does a spin_unlock_irq(), re-enabling for a function that does not expect it! While currently this bug seems harmless (only some debug printout seems to be affected by it), it's nevertheless something to be fixed. So this patch makes the ns83820 ISR irq-flags-safe, and cleans up do_tx_done() use and locking to avoid the ns83820_tx_timeout() bug. From: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> ns83820_mib_isr takes the misc_lock in IRQ context. All other places that do this in the ISR already use _irqsave versions, make this consistent at least. At some point in the future someone should audit the driver to see if all _irqsave's in the ISR can go away, this is generally an iffy/fragile proposition though; for now get it safe, simple and consistent. From: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> ok this is a real driver deadlock: The ns83820 driver enabled interrupts (by unlocking the misc_lock with _irq) while still holding the rx_info.lock, which is required to be irq safe since it's used in the ISR like this: writel(1, dev->base + IER); spin_unlock_irq(&dev->misc_lock); kick_rx(ndev); spin_unlock_irq(&dev->rx_info.lock); This is can cause a deadlock if an irq was pending at the first spin_unlock_irq already, or if one would hit during kick_rx(). Simply remove the first _irq solves this Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Benjamin LaHaise <bcrl@kvack.org> Cc: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org> Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org> 05 July 2006, 18:08:08 UTC

e85d091 Daniel Drake 02 June 2006, 16:11:32 UTC [PATCH] ZyDAS ZD1211 USB-WLAN driver There are 60+ USB wifi adapters available on the market based on the ZyDAS ZD1211 chip. Unlike the predecessor (ZD1201), ZD1211 does not have a hardware MAC, so most data operations are coordinated by the device driver. The ZD1211 chip sits alongside an RF transceiver which is also controlled by the driver. Our driver currently supports 2 RF types, we know of one other available in a few marketed products which we will be supporting soon. Our driver also supports the newer revision of ZD1211, called ZD1211B. The initialization and RF operations are slightly different for the new revision, but the main difference is 802.11e support. Our driver does not support the QoS features yet, but we think we know how to use them. This driver is based on ZyDAS's own GPL driver available from www.zydas.com.tw. ZyDAS engineers have been responsive and supportive of our efforts, so thumbs up to them. Additionally, the firmware is redistributable and they have provided device specs. This driver has been written primarily by Ulrich Kunitz and myself. Graham Gower, Greg KH, Remco and Bryan Rittmeyer have also contributed. The developers of ieee80211 and softmac have made our lives so much easier- thanks! We maintain a small info-page: http://zd1211.ath.cx/wiki/DriverRewrite If there is enough time for review, we would like to aim for inclusion in 2.6.18. The driver works nicely as a STA, and can connect to both open and encrypted networks (we are using software-based encryption for now). We will work towards supporting more advanced features in the future (ad-hoc, master mode, 802.11a, ...). Signed-off-by: Daniel Drake <dsd@gentoo.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

I also added a check to the wx handler to see if we're connecting to a different network than the one already in progress.

6d41e26 Larry Finger 20 June 2006, 14:19:18 UTC [PATCH] 2.6.17 missing a call to ieee80211softmac_capabilities from ieee80211softmac_assoc_req In commit ba9b28d19a3251bb1dfe6a6f8cc89b96fb85f683, routine ieee80211softmac_capabilities was added to ieee80211softmac_io.c. As denoted by its name, it completes the capabilities IE that is needed in the associate and reassociate requests sent to the AP. For at least one AP, the Linksys WRT54G V5, the capabilities field must set the 'short preamble' bit or the AP refuses to associate. In the commit noted above, there is a call to the new routine from ieee80211softmac_reassoc_req, but not from ieee80211softmac_assoc_req. This patch fixes that oversight. As noted in the subject, v2.6.17 is affected. My bcm43xx card had been unable to associate since I was forced to buy a new AP. I finally was able to get a packet dump and traced the problem to the capabilities info. Although I had heard that a patch was "floating around", I had not seen it before 2.6.17 was released. As this bug does not affect security and I seem to have the only AP affected by it, there should be no problem in leaving it for 2.6.18.

These days, the kernel's changelog is far superior and much more accurate, so the in-driver changelogs are removed. Another relic of the Becker/kernel split was version numbering, using "foo-LKx.y.z" notation, resulting in weird version numbers like "1.17b-LK1.1.9". These drivers are for older hardware, and see few changes these days, so the version numbers were all bumped to something more simple.

It's called again for an already mapped interrupt to allow changing the trigger setup, and currently this is not guarded with a test of wether the interrupt is requested or not. I plan to change some of this logic to be a bit less lenient against random reconfiguring of live interrupts but just not yet. The ported MPIC driver has a bug where when that happens, it will mask the interrupt. This changes it to preserve the previous masking of the interrupt instead.

c6482dd Arjan van de Ven 04 July 2006, 10:07:22 UTC [PATCH] fix AB-BA deadlock inversion at cs46xx_dsp_remove_scb There is a code sequence where the locking is substream->self_group.lock -> ins->scbs[index].lock substream->self_group.lock is interrupt safe, and taken from irq context as well (trace is snipped for brevity) so what can happen is cpu 0 cpu 1 user context user context take ins->scbs[index].lock without disabling interrupts get substream->self_group.lock (irqsafe) try to get ins->scbs[index].lock (spins) interrupt happens try to get substream->self_group.lock (spins) which is an obvious AB-BA deadlock fix is to just take the lock with _irqsafe Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Cc: Jaroslav Kysela <perex@suse.cz> Acked-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org> 04 July 2006, 17:24:57 UTC

By initializing the send and receive queue locks in mthca_wq_init() we confuse lockdep. It warns that that the ordered acquiry of both locks in mthca_modify_qp() is recursive acquiry of one lock: ============================================= [ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ] --------------------------------------------- modprobe/1192 is trying to acquire lock: (&wq->lock){....}, at: [<f892b4db>] mthca_modify_qp+0x60/0xa7b [ib_mthca] but task is already holding lock: (&wq->lock){....}, at: [<f892b4ce>] mthca_modify_qp+0x53/0xa7b [ib_mthca] Initializing the locks separately in mthca_alloc_qp_common() stops the warning and will let lockdep enforce proper ordering on paths that acquire both locks.

dd8041f Yasunori Goto 04 July 2006, 09:57:51 UTC [PATCH] Fix copying of pgdat array on each node for ia64 memory hotplug I found a bug in memory hot-add code for ia64. IA64's code has copies of pgdat's array on each node to reduce memory access over crossing node. This array is used by NODE_DATA() macro. When new node is hot-added, this pgdat's array should be updated and copied on new node too. However, I used for_each_online_node() in scatter_node_data() to copy it. This meant its array is not copied on new node. Because initialization of structures for new node was halfway, so online_node_map couldn't be set at this time. To copy arrays on new node, I changed it to check value of pgdat_list[] which is source array of copies. I tested this patch with my Memory Hotadd emulation on Tiger4. This patch is for 2.6.17-git20.
