1835107 Linus Torvalds 06 August 2008, 04:42:21 UTC Re-introduce "[SCSI] extend the last_sector_bug flag to cover more sectors" This re-introduces commit 2b142900784c6e38c8d39fa57d5f95ef08e735d8, which was reverted due to the regression it caused by commit fca082c9f1e11ec07efa8d2f9f13688521253f36. That regression was not root-caused by the original commit, it was just uncovered by it, and the real fix was done by Alan Stern in commit 580da34847488b404218d1d7f53b156f245f5555 ("Fix USB storage hang on command abort"). We can thus re-introduce the change that was confirmed by Alan Jenkins to be still required by his odd card reader.

ef647f1 Stephen Hemminger 06 August 2008, 01:42:51 UTC bridge: Eliminate unnecessary forward delay From: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Based upon original patch by Herbert Xu, which contained the following problem description: -------------------- When the forward delay is set to zero, we still delay the setting of the forwarding state by one or possibly two timers depending on whether STP is enabled. This could either turn out to be instantaneous, or horribly slow depending on the load of the machine. As there is nothing preventing us from enabling forwarding straight away, this patch eliminates this potential delay by executing the code directly if the forward delay is zero. The effect of this problem is that immediately after the carrier comes on a port, the bridge will drop all packets received from that port until it enters forwarding mode, thus causing unnecessary packet loss. Note that this patch doesn't fully remove the delay due to the link watcher. We should also check the carrier state when we are about to drop an incoming packet because the port is disabled. But that's for another patch. -------------------- This version of the fix takes a different approach, in that it just does the state change directly. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> 06 August 2008, 01:42:51 UTC

Okay, let's quieten the compiler (but I would prefer it if pprev, rb_link and rb_parent were meaningful in that case, rather than whatever's in them from descending the tree).

Irrespective of this fix I'm inclined to believe that this doesn't work right anyway - bitmap_allocate_region() has an implicit assumption of 'pos' being suitable for 'order', which this function doesn't seem to enforce (and since it's being called with a byte-granular value there's no reason to believe that the callers would make sure device_addr is passed accordingly - it's also not documented that way).

efc4918 David Miller 05 August 2008, 20:01:25 UTC radeon: misc corrections I have a new PCI-E radeon RV380 series card (PCI device ID 5b64) that hangs in my sparc64 boxes when the init scripts set the font. The problem goes away if I disable acceleration. I haven't figured out that bug yet, but along the way I found some corrections to make based upon some auditing. 1) The RB2D_DC_FLUSH_ALL value used by the kernel fb driver and the XORG video driver differ. I've made the kernel match what XORG is using. 2) In radeonfb_engine_reset() we have top-level code structure that roughly looks like: if (family is 300, 350, or V350) do this; else do that; ... if (family is NOT 300, OR family is NOT 350, OR family is NOT V350) do another thing; this last conditional makes no sense, is always true, and obviously was likely meant to be "family is NOT 300, 350, or V350". So I've made the code match the intent. Signed-off-by: David S.

In v1 cd->drive was referenced after dropping last reference on cd object (which could result in OOPS in ide_device_put() as reported/debugged by Mariusz Kozlowski).

The first hunk of the patch removes an unnecessary tg3_set_power_state() call. The chip will already be in the D0 state either due to a chip reset or through a previous call to tg3_set_power_state(). The second hunk of the patch moves the tg3_set_power_state() call outside the critical section guarded by tg3_full_lock() and tg3_full_unlock() functions. The power state of the device is and should be outside the lock's domain and all other tg3_set_power_state() calls support this.

Within a single qdisc this could be avoided by other means easily, upper qdiscs would still increase the counter when we return anything besides NET_XMIT_SUCCESS though. This means we need a new NET_XMIT return value to indicate this to the upper qdiscs. So I'd suggest to introduce NET_XMIT_STOLEN, return that to upper qdiscs and translate it to NET_XMIT_SUCCESS in dev_queue_xmit, similar to NET_XMIT_BYPASS." David Miller <davem@davemloft.net> noticed: "Maybe these NET_XMIT_* values being passed around should be a set of bits. They could be composed of base meanings, combined with specific attributes. So you could say "NET_XMIT_DROP | __NET_XMIT_NO_DROP_COUNT" The attributes get masked out by the top-level ->enqueue() caller, such that the base meanings are the only thing that make their way up into the stack. If it's only about communication within the qdisc tree, let's simply code it that way." This patch is trying to realize these ideas.

When I tested the same on older kernels like 2.6.18, I got the correct result i.e errno 12 (ENOMEM). I think in source code mlock(2), setting errno ENOMEM has been missed in do_mlock() , on mlock_fixup() failure. SUSv3 requires the following behavior frmo mlock(2). [ENOMEM] Some or all of the address range specified by the addr and len arguments does not correspond to valid mapped pages in the address space of the process. [EAGAIN] Some or all of the memory identified by the operation could not be locked when the call was made. This rule isn't so nice and slighly strange. but many people think POSIX/SUS compliance is important.

dc32944 Gerard Kam 04 August 2008, 20:41:12 UTC atmel_spi: fix hang due to missed interrupt For some time my at91sam9260 board with JFFS2 on serial flash (m25p80) would hang when accessing the serial flash and SPI bus. Slowing the SPI clock down to 9 MHz reduced the occurrence of the hang from "always" during boot to a nuisance level that allowed other SW development to continue. Finally had to address this issue when an application stresses the I/O to always cause a hang. Hang seems to be caused by a missed SPI interrupt, so that the task ends up waiting forever after calling spi_sync(). The fix has 2 parts. First is to halt the DMA engine before the "current" PDC registers are loaded. This ensures that the "next" registers are loaded before the DMA operation takes off. The second part of the fix is a kludge that adds a "completion" interrupt in case the ENDRX interrupt for the last segment of the DMA chaining operation was missed. The patch allows the SPI clock for the serial flash to be increased from 9 MHz to 15 MHz (or more?). No hangs or SPI overruns were encountered. Haavard: while this patch does indeed improve things, I still see overruns and CRC errors on my NGW100 board when running the DataFlash at 10 MHz. However, I think some improvement is better than nothing, so I'm passing this on for inclusion in 2.6.27.
