Revision a247c3a97a0216b18a46243eda26081f1928ec37 authored by Andrea Arcangeli on 22 September 2010, 20:05:12 UTC, committed by Linus Torvalds on 23 September 2010, 00:22:39 UTC
The below bug in fork led to the rmap walk finding the parent huge-pmd twice instead of just once, because the anon_vma_chain objects of the child vma still point to the vma->vm_mm of the parent. The patch fixes it by making the rmap walk accurate during fork. It's not a big deal normally but it worth being accurate considering the cost is the same.

Generic HDLC layer
Krzysztof Halasa <khc@pm.waw.pl>
Generic HDLC layer currently supports:
1. Frame Relay (ANSI, CCITT, Cisco and no LMI)
- Normal (routed) and Ethernet-bridged (Ethernet device emulation)
interfaces can share a single PVC.
- ARP support (no InARP support in the kernel - there is an
experimental InARP user-space daemon available on:
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/net/hdlc/).
2. raw HDLC - either IP (IPv4) interface or Ethernet device emulation
3. Cisco HDLC
4. PPP
5. X.25 (uses X.25 routines).
Generic HDLC is a protocol driver only - it needs a low-level driver
for your particular hardware.
Ethernet device emulation (using HDLC or Frame-Relay PVC) is compatible
with IEEE 802.1Q (VLANs) and 802.1D (Ethernet bridging).
Make sure the hdlc.o and the hardware driver are loaded. It should
create a number of "hdlc" (hdlc0 etc) network devices, one for each
WAN port. You'll need the "sethdlc" utility, get it from:
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/net/hdlc/
Compile sethdlc.c utility:
gcc -O2 -Wall -o sethdlc sethdlc.c
Make sure you're using a correct version of sethdlc for your kernel.
Use sethdlc to set physical interface, clock rate, HDLC mode used,
and add any required PVCs if using Frame Relay.
Usually you want something like:
sethdlc hdlc0 clock int rate 128000
sethdlc hdlc0 cisco interval 10 timeout 25
or
sethdlc hdlc0 rs232 clock ext
sethdlc hdlc0 fr lmi ansi
sethdlc hdlc0 create 99
ifconfig hdlc0 up
ifconfig pvc0 localIP pointopoint remoteIP
In Frame Relay mode, ifconfig master hdlc device up (without assigning
any IP address to it) before using pvc devices.
Setting interface:
* v35 | rs232 | x21 | t1 | e1 - sets physical interface for a given port
if the card has software-selectable interfaces
loopback - activate hardware loopback (for testing only)
* clock ext - both RX clock and TX clock external
* clock int - both RX clock and TX clock internal
* clock txint - RX clock external, TX clock internal
* clock txfromrx - RX clock external, TX clock derived from RX clock
* rate - sets clock rate in bps (for "int" or "txint" clock only)
Setting protocol:
* hdlc - sets raw HDLC (IP-only) mode
nrz / nrzi / fm-mark / fm-space / manchester - sets transmission code
no-parity / crc16 / crc16-pr0 (CRC16 with preset zeros) / crc32-itu
crc16-itu (CRC16 with ITU-T polynomial) / crc16-itu-pr0 - sets parity
* hdlc-eth - Ethernet device emulation using HDLC. Parity and encoding
as above.
* cisco - sets Cisco HDLC mode (IP, IPv6 and IPX supported)
interval - time in seconds between keepalive packets
timeout - time in seconds after last received keepalive packet before
we assume the link is down
* ppp - sets synchronous PPP mode
* x25 - sets X.25 mode
* fr - Frame Relay mode
lmi ansi / ccitt / cisco / none - LMI (link management) type
dce - Frame Relay DCE (network) side LMI instead of default DTE (user).
It has nothing to do with clocks!
t391 - link integrity verification polling timer (in seconds) - user
t392 - polling verification timer (in seconds) - network
n391 - full status polling counter - user
n392 - error threshold - both user and network
n393 - monitored events count - both user and network
Frame-Relay only:
* create n | delete n - adds / deletes PVC interface with DLCI #n.
Newly created interface will be named pvc0, pvc1 etc.
* create ether n | delete ether n - adds a device for Ethernet-bridged
frames. The device will be named pvceth0, pvceth1 etc.
Board-specific issues
---------------------
n2.o and c101.o need parameters to work:
insmod n2 hw=io,irq,ram,ports[:io,irq,...]
example:
insmod n2 hw=0x300,10,0xD0000,01
or
insmod c101 hw=irq,ram[:irq,...]
example:
insmod c101 hw=9,0xdc000
If built into the kernel, these drivers need kernel (command line) parameters:
n2.hw=io,irq,ram,ports:...
or
c101.hw=irq,ram:...
If you have a problem with N2, C101 or PLX200SYN card, you can issue the
"private" command to see port's packet descriptor rings (in kernel logs):
sethdlc hdlc0 private
The hardware driver has to be build with #define DEBUG_RINGS.
Attaching this info to bug reports would be helpful. Anyway, let me know
if you have problems using this.
