We were pci_unmap_single()'ing less bytes than what we called for with pci_map_single() and as such we were starving the swiotlb from its 64MB amount of bounce buffers. We remain consistent and now always use sc->rxbufsize for RX. While at it we update the beacon DMA maps as well to only use the data portion of the skb, previous to this we were pci_map_single()'ing more data for beaconing than what we tell the hardware it can use, therefore pushing more iotlb abuse. Still not sure why this is so easily triggerable on MacBook Pro 3.1, it may be the hardware configuration tends to use more memory > 3GB mark for DMA.

I asked around, and he's right, there may be platforms that do not allow passing such such an address to the DMA API functions.

The init sequence is different and the interrupt mask lacks some bits present in the VSC8244.

Miller, empty packet can be transmitted on connected socket for datagram protocols. However, this patch broke a high level application using ROSE network protocol with connected datagram. Bulletin Board Stations perform bulletins forwarding between BBS stations via ROSE network using a forward protocol. Now, if for some reason, a buffer in the application software happens to be empty at a specific moment, ROSE sends an empty packet via unfiltered packet socket. When received, this ROSE packet introduces perturbations of data exchange of BBS forwarding, for the application message forwarding protocol is waiting for something else. We agree that a more careful programming of the application protocol would avoid this situation and we are willing to debug it. But, as an empty frame is no use and does not have any meaning for ROSE protocol, we may consider filtering zero length data both when sending and receiving socket data. The proposed patch repaired BBS data exchange through ROSE network that were broken since 2.6.22.11 kernel. Signed-off-by: Bernard Pidoux <f6bvp@amsat.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

| * tcp: Do not use TSO/GSO when there is urgent dataPetr Tesarik2008-11-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12014 Since most (if not all) implementations of TSO and even the in-kernel software GSO do not update the urgent pointer when splitting a large segment, it is necessary to turn off TSO/GSO for all outgoing traffic with the URG pointer set. Looking at tcp_current_mss (and the preceding comment) I even think this was the original intention. However, this approach is insufficient, because TSO/GSO is turned off only for newly created frames, not for frames which were already pending at the arrival of a message with MSG_OOB set. These frames were created when TSO/GSO was enabled, so they may be large, and they will have the urgent pointer set in tcp_transmit_skb(). With this patch, such large packets will be fragmented again before going to the transmit routine. As a side note, at least the following NICs are known to screw up the urgent pointer in the TCP header when doing TSO: Intel 82566MM (PCI ID 8086:1049) Intel 82566DC (PCI ID 8086:104b) Intel 82541GI (PCI ID 8086:1076) Broadcom NetXtreme II BCM5708 (PCI ID 14e4:164c) Signed-off-by: Petr Tesarik <ptesarik@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: David S.

I compiled a kernel with the PCMCIA-ID for the netgear card moved to axnet_cs from pcnet_cs which worked. I then contacted sidux-kernel maintainer Stefan Lippers-Hollmann who turned the info into this patch and integrated it into the kernel: <http://svn.berlios.de/svnroot/repos/fullstory/linux-sidux-2.6/trunk/debian/patches/features/2.6.27.4_PCMCIA_move-PCMCIA-ID-for-Netgear-FA411-from-pcnet_cs-to-axnet_cs.patch> This works for me and AFAIK there were no reports of any breakage for other devices on sidux-support. This looks like a trivial patch, but since I have very limited experience with kernel modifications I might be woefully wrong there. But if there are no side effects of this patch, is it possible to get it into the official kernel?

| * | ath9k: Handle -ENOMEM on RX gracefullyLuis R. Rodriguez2008-11-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We would get an oops on RX on -ENOMEM by passing NULL to the hardware on ath_rx_buf_link(). The oops would look something like this: ath_rx_tasklet+0x515/0x53b ath9k_tasklet+0x48 tasklet_action __do_softirq irq_exit do_IRQ RIP: ath_rx_buf_link+0x3a We correct this by handling the requeue directly on the ath_rx_tasklet() and trying to allocate an skb *prior* to sending up the last hardware processed skb. If we run out of memory this gauranteees we have skbs to work with while it simply drops new received frames. Signed-off-by: Luis R. Rodriguez <lrodriguez@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

| * | rfkill: always call get_state() hook on resumeHenrique de Moraes Holschuh2008-11-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We "optimize" away the get_state() hook call on rfkill_toggle_radio when doing a forced state change. This means the resume path is not calling get_state() as it should. Call it manually on the resume handler, as we don't want to mess with the EPO path by removing the optimization. This has the added benefit of making it explicit that rfkill->state could have been modified before we hit the rfkill_toggle_radio() call in the class resume handler.

| * | rfkill: preserve state across suspendHenrique de Moraes Holschuh2008-11-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The rfkill class API requires that the driver connected to a class call rfkill_force_state() on resume to update the real state of the rfkill controller, OR that it provides a get_state() hook. This means there is potentially a hidden call in the resume code flow that changes rfkill->state (i.e. rfkill_force_state()), so the previous state of the transmitter was being lost. The simplest and most future-proof way to fix this is to explicitly store the pre-sleep state on the rfkill structure, and restore from that on resume.
