beeebc9 9p: fix endian issues [attempt 3] When the changes were done to the protocol last release, some endian bugs crept in. This patch fixes those endian problems and has been verified to run on 32/64 bit and x86/ppc architectures. This version of the patch incorporates the correct annotations for endian variables.

152abd1 3c509: Fix resume from hibernation for PnP mode. From: Ondrej Zary <linux@rainbow-software.org> last year, I posted a patch which fixed hibernation on 3c509 cards. That was back in 2.6.24. It worked fine in 2.6.25. But then I stopped using hibernation (as it did not work with my new IT8212 RAID controller). Now I fixed it and noticed that 3c509 does not wake up properly anymore (in 2.6.28) - neither in PnP nor in ISA modes. ifconfig down/up makes the card work again in PnP mode. However, in ISA mode, ifconfig up ends with "No such device" error. Comparing the 3c509 driver between 2.6.25 and 2.6.28, there's only some statistics-related change. So the cause of the problem must be somewhere else. This patch makes the resume work in PnP mode, but it's still not enough for ISA mode. Signed-off-by: David S.

71822fa sungem: Soft lockup in sungem on Netra AC200 when switching interface up From: Ilkka Virta <itvirta@iki.fi> In the lockup situation the driver seems to go off in an eternal storm of interrupts right after calling request_irq(). It doesn't actually do anything interesting in the interrupt handler. Since connecting the link afterwards works, something later in initialization must fix this. Looking at gem_do_start() and gem_open(), it seems that the only thing done while opening the device after the request_irq(), is a call to napi_enable(). I don't know what the ordering requirements are for the initialization, but I boldly tried to move the napi_enable() call inside gem_do_start() before the link state is checked and interrupts subsequently enabled, and it seems to work for me. Doesn't even break anything too obvious... Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> 07 February 2009, 06:00:36 UTC

355423d r8169: Don't update statistics counters when interface is down Some Realtek chips (RTL8169sb/8110sb in my case) are unable to retrieve ethtool statistics when the interface is down. The process stays in endless loop in rtl8169_get_ethtool_stats. This is because these chips need to have receiver enabled (CmdRxEnb bit in ChipCmd register) that is cleared when the interface is going down. It's better to update statistics only when the interface is up and otherwise return copy of statistics grabbed when the interface was up (in rtl8169_close). It is interesting that PCI-E NICs (like 8168b/8111b...) are not affected. Signed-off-by: Ivan Vecera <ivecera@redhat.com> Acked-by: Francois Romieu <romieu@fr.zoreil.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2783ef2 udp: Fix potential wrong ip_hdr(skb) pointers Like the UDP header fix, pskb_may_pull() can potentially alter the SKB buffer. Thus the saddr and daddr, pointers may point to the old skb->data buffer.

720eba3 modules: Use a better scheme for refcounting Current refcounting for modules (done if CONFIG_MODULE_UNLOAD=y) is using a lot of memory. Each 'struct module' contains an [NR_CPUS] array of full cache lines. This patch uses existing infrastructure (percpu_modalloc() & percpu_modfree()) to allocate percpu space for the refcount storage. Instead of wasting NR_CPUS*128 bytes (on i386), we now use nr_cpu_ids*sizeof(local_t) bytes. On a typical distro, where NR_CPUS=8, shiping 2000 modules, we reduce size of module files by about 2 Mbytes. (1Kb per module) Instead of having all refcounters in the same memory node - with TLB misses because of vmalloc() - this new implementation permits to have better NUMA properties, since each CPU will use storage on its preferred node, thanks to percpu storage.

a77dcc4 ide: add CS5536 host driver (v3) This is a port of libata's pata_cs5536.c (written by Martin K. Petersen) to IDE subsystem. Changes done while at it: * Reprogram PIO/MWDMA timings if needed before and after DMA transfer (chipset uses shared PIO/MWDMA timings). * Fix cable detection to report 80-wires cable if BIOS set it for any device on a port (IDE core will do drive-side cable detection later). * Don't disable UDMA while programming PIO timings. * Simplify PCI/MSR support. Pros of having IDE host driver in addition to libata's one: * IDE is much lighter than SCSI+libata, the host driver itself is also a bit smaller: text data bss dec hex filename 1261 496 4 1761 6e1 drivers/ata/pata_cs5536.o 1242 128 4 1374 55e drivers/ide/cs5536.o * This allows use of IDE features which are unavailable under libata. v2: * Fixes per review from Sergei: - simplify dependency check in Kconfig - use IDE_DRV_MASK also for ->drive_data - disable UDMA when programming MWDMA - program new DTC timings only when necessary - fix printk() level in cs5536_init_one() * Fix patch description according to comments from Alan and Sergei. v3: * Smarter masking of UDMA bits per Sergei's suggestion.

7fbb7ca fbdev/atyfb: Fix DSP config on some PowerMacs & PowerBooks Since the complete re-write in 2.6.10, some PowerMacs (At least PowerMac 5500 and PowerMac G3 Beige rev A) with ATI Mach64 chip have suffered from unstable columns in their framebuffer image. This seems to depend on a value (4) read from PLL_EXT_CNTL register, which leads to incorrect DSP config parameters to be written to the chip. This patch uses a value calculated by aty_init_pll_ct instead, as a starting point. There are questions as to whether this should be extended to other platforms or maybe made dependent on specific chip types, but in the meantime, this has been tested on various powermacs and works for them so let's commit it.

27421e2 Manually revert "mlock: downgrade mmap sem while populating mlocked regions" This essentially reverts commit 8edb08caf68184fb170f4f69c7445929e199eaea. It downgraded our mmap semaphore to a read-lock while mlocking pages, in order to allow other threads (and external accesses like "ps" et al) to walk the vma lists and take page faults etc. Which is a nice idea, but the implementation does not work. Because we cannot upgrade the lock back to a write lock without releasing the mmap semaphore, the code had to release the lock entirely and then re-take it as a writelock. However, that meant that the caller possibly lost the vma chain that it was following, since now another thread could come in and mmap/munmap the range. The code tried to work around that by just looking up the vma again and erroring out if that happened, but quite frankly, that was just a buggy hack that doesn't actually protect against anything (the other thread could just have replaced the vma with another one instead of totally unmapping it). The only way to downgrade to a read map _reliably_ is to do it at the end, which is likely the right thing to do: do all the 'vma' operations with the write-lock held, then downgrade to a read after completing them all, and then do the "populate the newly mlocked regions" while holding just the read lock. And then just drop the read-lock and return to user space. The (perhaps somewhat simpler) alternative is to just make all the callers of mlock_vma_pages_range() know that the mmap lock got dropped, and just re-grab the mmap semaphore if it needs to mlock more than one vma region. So we can do this "downgrade mmap sem while populating mlocked regions" thing right, but the way it was done here was absolutely not correct. Thus the revert, in the expectation that we will do it all correctly some day.

fc8744a Stop playing silly games with the VM_ACCOUNT flag The mmap_region() code would temporarily set the VM_ACCOUNT flag for anonymous shared mappings just to inform shmem_zero_setup() that it should enable accounting for the resulting shm object. It would then clear the flag after calling ->mmap (for the /dev/zero case) or doing shmem_zero_setup() (for the MAP_ANON case). This just resulted in vma merge issues, but also made for just unnecessary confusion. Use the already-existing VM_NORESERVE flag for this instead, and let shmem_{zero|file}_setup() just figure it out from that. This also happens to make it obvious that the new DRI2 GEM layer uses a non-reserving backing store for its object allocation - which is quite possibly not intentional. But since I didn't want to change semantics in this patch, I left it alone, and just updated the caller to use the new flag semantics.

5d0932a igb: fix link reporting when using sgmii When using sgmii the link was not being properly passed up to the driver from the underlying link management functions. This change corrects it so that get_link_status is cleared when a link has been found.

ec54d7d igb: prevent skb_over panic w/ mtu smaller than 1K A panic has been observed with frame sizes smaller than 1K. This has been root caused to the hardware spanning larger frames across multiple buffers and then reporting the original frame size in the first descriptor. To prevent this we can enable set the LPE bit which in turn will restrict packet sizes to those set in the RLPML register.

905db44 packet: Avoid lock_sock in mmap handler As the mmap handler gets called under mmap_sem, and we may grab mmap_sem elsewhere under the socket lock to access user data, we should avoid grabbing the socket lock in the mmap handler. Since the only thing we care about in the mmap handler is for pg_vec* to be invariant, i.e., to exclude packet_set_ring, we can achieve this by simply using a new mutex.

1974cc2 sfc: Replace stats_enabled flag with a disable count Currently we use a spin-lock to serialise statistics fetches and also to inhibit them for short periods of time, plus a flag to enable/disable statistics fetches for longer periods of time, during online reset.

Do not set speed override bits when AN is enabled, and do not use register 1.49192 for AN configuration as it can override what we set elsewhere. Always set the AN selector bits to 1 (802.3).
