* e1000e: ESB2 config after link upBruce Allan2008-11-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | On ESB2, the MAC-to-PHY (Kumeran) interface must be configured after link is up before any traffic is sent; a new PHY operations function pointer is provided for this. To facilitate read/write of the Kumeran registers without blocking PHY register writes, the driver/firmware synchronization method which previously used a hardware semaphore for both PHY and Kumeran register accesses is now split. New Kumeran register read/write functions utilize this new synchronization method.

* e1000e: disable correctable errors for quad ports while going to D3Alexander Duyck2008-11-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | There has been an issue seen with the pci-e quad port adapters that will cause them to generate a pci-e correctable error on some system while transitioning to D3. Since no action is needed on this correctable error the simplest solution is to mask off the reporting of correctable errors.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Itanium processors can handle some misaligned data accesses. They also provide a mode where all such accesses are forced to trap. The kernel was schizophrenic about use of this mode: * Base kernel code ran in permissive mode where the only traps generated were from those cases that the h/w could not handle. * Interrupt, syscall and trap code ran in strict mode where all unaligned accesses caused traps to the 0x5a00 unaligned reference vector. Use strict alignment checking throughout the kernel, but make sure that we continue to let user mode use more relaxed mode as the default. Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>

The USB subsystem hang symptom is observed when the system has multiple USB devices connected to it. In some cases a USB hub may be required to observe this symptom. This patch works around the problem by correcting the internal register setting that will help by changing the behavior of the internal logic to avoid the USB subsystem hang issue. The change in the behavior of the logic does not impact the normal operation of the USB subsystem.

| * | x86: Fix interrupt leak due to migrationMatthew Wilcox2008-11-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we migrate an interrupt from one CPU to another, we set the move_in_progress flag and clean up the vectors later once they're not being used. If you're unlucky and call destroy_irq() before the vectors become un-used, the move_in_progress flag is never cleared, which causes the interrupt to become unusable. This was discovered by Jesse Brandeburg for whom it manifested as an MSI-X device refusing to use MSI-X mode when the driver was unloaded and reloaded repeatedly.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix a regression reported by Max Kellermann whereby kernel profiling showed that his clients were spending 45% of their time in rpcauth_lookup_credcache. It turns out that although his processes had identical uid/gid/groups, generic_match() was failing to detect this, because the task->group_info pointers were not shared. This again lead to the creation of a huge number of identical credentials at the RPC layer. The regression is fixed by comparing the contents of task->group_info if the actual pointers are not identical.
