* [PATCH] sched: remove SMT niceCon Kolivas2007-03-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Remove the SMT-nice feature which idles sibling cpus on SMT cpus to facilitiate nice working properly where cpu power is shared. The idling of cpus in the presence of runnable tasks is considered too fragile, easy to break with outside code, and the complexity of managing this system if an architecture comes along with many logical cores sharing cpu power will be unworkable. Remove the associated per_cpu_gain variable in sched_domains used only by this code. Also: The reason is that with dynticks enabled, this code breaks without yet further tweaks so dynticks brought on the rapid demise of this code. So either we tweak this code or kill it off entirely. It was Ingo's preference to kill it off. Either way this needs to happen for 2.6.21 since dynticks has gone in.

* [PATCH] schedule wext/rtnl for removalJohannes Berg2007-03-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since wext is being replaced as fast as we can (it'll probably stick around for legacy drivers though) and the wext/netlink stuff was never really used, this schedules it for removal. The removal schedule is tight but there are no users of the code, the main user of the wext user interface are the wireless-tools, they only have an alpha version using the netlink interface and even that is incomplete.

* [PATCH] add CONFIG_GENERIC_GPIODavid Brownell2007-03-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Most drivers using GPIOs already know they are running on a system that supports the generic GPIO calls, because of other platform dependencies. But the generic GPIO-based LED and input button drivers can't know that. So this patch adds a Kconfig hook, GENERIC_GPIO, to mark the platforms where <asm/gpio.h> will do the right thing. Currently that's a bunch of ARMs, and AVR32; more are on the way. It also fixes a dependency bug for the gpio button input driver; it was wrong to start with, now it covers all platforms with GENERIC_GPIO.

* [PATCH] Fix soft lockup with iSeries viocd driverTony Breeds2007-03-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix soft lockup with iSeries viocd driver, caused by eventually calling end_that_request_first() with nr_bytes 0. Some versions of hald do an SG_IO ioctl on the viocd device which becomes a request with hard_nr_sectors and hard_cur_sectors set to zero. Passing zero as the number of sectors to end_request() (which calls end_that_request_first()) causes an infinite loop when the bio is being freed. This patch makes sure that the zero is never passed. It only requires some number larger the the request size the terminate the loop. The lockup is triggered by hald, interrogating the device.

* [PATCH] msi: support masking msi irqs without a mask bitEric W. Biederman2007-03-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For devices that do not support msi-x we only support 1 interrupt. Therefore we can disable that one interrupt by disabling the msi capability itself. If we leave the intx interrupts disabled while we have the msi capability disabled no interrupts should be delivered from that device. Devices with just the minimal msi support (and thus hitting this code path) include things like the intel e1000 nic, so it looks like is going to be a fairly common case and thus important to get right.

* [PATCH] msi: fix up the msi enable/disable logicEric W. Biederman2007-03-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | enable/disable_msi_mode have several side effects which keeps them from being generally useful. So this patch replaces them with with two much more targeted functions: msi_set_enable and msix_set_enable. This patch makes pci_dev->msi_enabled and pci_dev->msix_enabled the definitive way to test if linux has enabled the msi capability, and has the appropriate msi data structures set up. This patch ensures that while writing the msi messages in save/restore and during device initialization we have the msi capability disabled so we don't get into races. The pci spec requires that we do not have the msi capability enabled and the msi messages unmasked while we write the messages. Completely disabling the capability is overkill but it is easy :) Care has been taken so we never have both a msi capability and intx enabled simultaneously. We haven't run into a problem yet but better safe then sorry. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

* [PATCH] msi: sanely support hardware level msi disablingEric W. Biederman2007-03-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In some cases when we are not using msi we need a way to ensure that the hardware does not have an msi capability enabled. Currently the code has been calling disable_msi_mode to try and achieve that. However disable_msi_mode has several other side effects and is only available when msi support is compiled in so it isn't really appropriate. Instead this patch implements pci_msi_off which disables all msi and msix capabilities unconditionally with no additional side effects. pci_disable_device was redundantly clearing the bus master enable flag and clearing the msi enable bit. A device that is not allowed to perform bus mastering operations cannot generate intx or msi interrupt messages as those are essentially a special case of dma, and require bus mastering. So the call in pci_disable_device to disable msi capabilities was redundant. quirk_pcie_pxh also called disable_msi_mode and is updated to use pci_msi_off. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

| * | [PPPOE]: Key connections properly on local device.Florian Zumbiehl2007-03-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is based on the assumption that an interface's ifindex is basically an alias for a local MAC address, so incoming packets now are matched to sockets based on remote MAC, session id, and ifindex of the interface the packet came in on/the socket was bound to by connect(). For relayed packets, the socket that's used for relaying is selected based on destination MAC, session ID and the interface index of the interface whose name currently matches the name requested by userspace as the relaying source interface.

| * | [NET]: Fix bugs in "Whether sock accept queue is full" checkingWei Dong2007-03-02
| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | when I use linux TCP socket, and find there is a bug in function sk_acceptq_is_full(). When a new SYN comes, TCP module first checks its validation. If valid, send SYN,ACK to the client and add the sock to the syn hash table. Next time if received the valid ACK for SYN,ACK from the client. server will accept this connection and increase the sk->sk_ack_backlog -- which is done in function tcp_check_req().We check wether acceptq is full in function tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock(). Consider an example: After listen(sockfd, 1) system call, sk->sk_max_ack_backlog is set to 1. As we know, sk->sk_ack_backlog is initialized to 0. Assuming accept() system call is not invoked now. 1. 1st connection comes. invoke sk_acceptq_is_full(). sk- >sk_ack_backlog=0 sk->sk_max_ack_backlog=1, function return 0 accept this connection. Increase the sk->sk_ack_backlog 2. 2nd connection comes. invoke sk_acceptq_is_full(). sk- >sk_ack_backlog=1 sk->sk_max_ack_backlog=1, function return 0 accept this connection. Increase the sk->sk_ack_backlog 3. 3rd connection comes. invoke sk_acceptq_is_full(). sk- >sk_ack_backlog=2 sk->sk_max_ack_backlog=1, function return 1. Refuse this connection. I think it has bugs. after listen system call. sk->sk_max_ack_backlog=1 but now it can accept 2 connections. Signed-off-by: Wei Dong <weid@np.css.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | An off-by-one bug meant we were always trying to map one too many scatterlist entries. This was mostly harmless prior to the checks going in to consistent_sync(), but now causes the kernel to BUG. Also, powertec.c was missing an assignment to info->ec.

Also, since this driver also contains Acorn RiscPC specific code for obtaining the current year from the SRAM (and updating the platform specific checksum when writing new data back) this is NOT a platform independent driver. Document it as such, and update the dependencies to reflect this fact. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
