2afecc0 [PATCH] e100: re-enable microcode with more useful defaults For the four versions of hardware that we (currently) support microcode download on, the default configuration of our receive interrupt mitigation microcode was too aggressive, and caused unnecessary delays when pinging, and low(er) throughput on single connection latency sensitive performance tests. This code adds microcode support, and sets the defaults to more reasonable settings. It also explains the functionality in the code in more detail. Compile and load tested, shows expected behavior for slight delay of ping packets (1-2ms) when ucode is loaded, and decent interrupt moderation for small packets, while maintaining good throughput.

7d1ce68 [PATCH] sil24: add sil24_restart_controller When an error condition is raised by device via D2H FIS or SDB. sil24 controller should be restarted by setting PORT_CS_INIT and waiting until PORT_CS_RDY is asserted instead of resetting the controller. This patch implements sil24_restart_controller for those cases. This patch also makes sure that PORT_CS_RDY is asserted on sil24_reset_controller completion. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> -- Jeff, delay is reduced to 1us and cnt increased to 10k. My sil3124 turns on PORT_CS_RDY on the second iteration even without any delay. I think 10k * 1us should be more than enough. I tried to convert both restart and reset to use msleep's with work queue, but if we do that, host_set lock should be released after initiating restart or reset, leading to race condition among reset/restart, other interrupts and timeout. Implementing synchronization among those in low-level driver doesn't seem right. Well, reduced timeout should work for the time being. Thanks.

e525424 [PATCH] smc91x: fix bank mismatch The smc91x driver relies upon register bank 2 being selected whenever the interrupt handler is called. This isn't always so, especially if we have a link change event during PHY configuration. This results in register bank 0 being selected when the interrupt handler is called, causing the wrong registers to be read for the IRQ mask and status. In turn, this causes us to spin with a permanently asserted IRQ. The patch ensures that smc_phy_configure always exits with register bank 2 selected.

c0e4852 [PATCH] md: fix is_mddev_idle calculation now that disk/sector accounting happens when request completes md needs to monitor the rate of requests to its devices when doing resync/recovery so that it can back-off when there is non-resync IO. It does this by comparing resync IO, which it counts, with total IO which is taken from disk_stats. disk_stats were recently changed to account sectors when a request completes instead of when it is queued. This upsets md's calculations. We could do the sync_io accounting at the end of requests too, but that has problems. If an underlying device is an md array, the accounting will still be done when the request is submitted. This could be changed for some raid levels, but it cannot be changed for raid0 or linear without substantial code changes. So instead, we increase the error that is_mddev_idle allows, up to the maximum amount of resync IO that can be in flight at any time. The calculation is current fragile as each personality as different limits for in-flight resync. This should be fixed up. For now, this simple patch fixes the problem. Increasing the error margin decreases the sensitivity to non-resync IO. To partially compensate for this, the time to wait when non-resync IO is detected is increased so that less steady IO is required to keep the resync at bay.

3819982 [LLC]: Fix compiler warnings introduced by TX window scaling changes. Noticed by Olaf Hering. The comparisons want a u8 here (the data type on the left-hand branch is a u8 structure member, and the constant on the right-hand branch is "~((u8) 128)"), but C turns it into an integer so we get: net/llc/llc_c_ac.c: In function `llc_conn_ac_inc_npta_value': net/llc/llc_c_ac.c:998: warning: comparison is always true due to limited range of data type net/llc/llc_c_ac.c:999: warning: large integer implicitly truncated to unsigned type Fix this up by explicitly recasting the right-hand branch constant into a "u8" once more.

a137ce8 [PARISC] Define port->timeout to fix a long msleep in mux.c This commit is in response to a bug reported by Vesa on the irc channel a couple of weeks ago. The bug was that the console would apparently hang (not return) while using the mux console. The root cause of this bug is that bash (with readline support) makes a call to the tcsetattr() glibc function with the argument TCSADRAIN. This causes the serial core in the kernel use the uart_wait_until_sent() to be called. This function verifies the mux transmit queue is empty or calls the msleep_interruptable() with a calculated timeout value that is dependant upon the port->timeout variable. The real problem here is that the port->timeout was not defined so it was defaulted to 0 and the timeout calculation performs the following calculation: char_time = (port->timeout - HZ/50) / port->fifosize; where char_time is an unsigned long. Since the serial Mux does not use interrupts, the msleep_interruptable() function waits until the timeout has been reached ... and when the port->timeout < HZ/50 this timeout will be a long time. (I have validated that the console will eventually return ... but it takes quite a while for this to happen). This patch simply sets the port->timeout on the Mux to HZ/50 to avoid this long timeout period.

08dc2ca [PARISC] Fix our spinlock implementation We actually have two separate bad bugs 1. The read_lock implementation spins with disabled interrupts. This is completely wrong 2. Our spin_lock_irqsave should check to see if interrupts were enabled before the call and re-enable interrupts around the inner spin loop. The problem is that if we spin with interrupts off, we can't receive IPIs. This has resulted in a bug where SMP machines suddenly spit smp_call_function timeout messages and hang. The scenario I've caught is CPU0 does a flush_tlb_all holding the vmlist_lock for write. CPU1 tries a cat of /proc/meminfo which tries to acquire vmlist_lock for read CPU1 is now spinning with interrupts disabled CPU0 tries to execute a smp_call_function to flush the local tlb caches This is now a deadlock because CPU1 is spinning with interrupts disabled and can never receive the IPI Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <jejb@parisc-linux.org> Signed-off-by: Kyle McMartin <kyle@parisc-linux.org> 17 November 2005, 21:35:09 UTC

3f90288 [PARISC] Disable nesting of interrupts Disable nesting of interrupts - still has holes The offending sequence starts out like this: 1) take external interrupt 2) set_eiem() to only allow TIMER_IRQ; local interrupts still disabled 3) read the EIRR to get a "list" of pending interrupts 4) clear EIRR of pending interrupts we intend to handle 5) call __do_IRQ() to handle IRQ. 6) handle_IRQ_event() enables local interrupts (I-Bit) 7) take a timer interrupt 8) read EIRR to get a new list of pending interrupts 9) clear EIRR of pending interrupts we just read 10) handle pending interrupts found in (8) 11) set_eiem(cpu_eiem) and return [ TROUBLE! all enabled CPU IRQs are unmasked. } 12) handle remaining interrupts pending from (3) e.g. call __do_IRQ() -> handle_IRQ_event()..etc [ TROUBLE! call to handle_IRQ_event() can now enable *any* IRQ. } 13) set_eiem(cpu_eiem) and return The problem is we now get into ugly race conditions with Timer and IPI interrupts at this point. I'm not exactly sure what happens when things go wrong (perhaps nest calls to IPI or timer interrupt?). But I'm certain it's not good. This sequence will break sooner if (10) would accidentally leave interrupts enabled. I'm pretty sure the right answer is now to make cpu_eiem a per CPU variable since all external interrupts on parisc are per CPU. This means we will NOT need to send an IPI to every CPU in the system when enabling or disabling an IRQ since only one CPU needs to change it's EIEM.

9a8b458 [PARISC] Make sure timer and IPI execute with interrupts disabled Fix a longstanding smp bug The problem is that both the timer and ipi interrupts are being called with interrupts enabled, which isn't what anyone is expecting. The IPI issue has just started to show up by causing a BUG_ON in the slab debugging code. The timer issue never shows up because there's an eiem work around in our irq.c The fix is to label both these as SA_INTERRUPT which causes the generic irq code not to enable interrupts. I also suspect the smp_call_function timeouts we're seeing might be connected with the fact that we disable IPIs when handling any other type of interrupt. I've put a WARN_ON in the code for executing smp_call_function() with IPIs disabled.
