| * genirq: Force MSI irq handlers to run with interrupts disabledThomas Gleixner2010-03-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Network folks reported that directing all MSI-X vectors of their multi queue NICs to a single core can cause interrupt stack overflows when enough interrupts fire at the same time. This is caused by the fact that we run interrupt handlers by default with interrupts enabled unless the driver reuqests the interrupt with the IRQF_DISABLED set. The NIC handlers do not set this flag, so simultaneous interrupts can nest unlimited and cause the stack overflow. The only safe counter measure is to run the interrupt handlers with interrupts disabled. We can't switch to this mode in general right now, but it is safe to do so for MSI interrupts. Force IRQF_DISABLED for MSI interrupt handlers.

| * | | libata: unlock HPA if device shrunkTejun Heo2010-04-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some BIOSes don't configure HPA during boot but do so while resuming. This causes harddrives to shrink during resume making libata detach and reattach them. This can be worked around by unlocking HPA if old size equals native size. Add ATA_DFLAG_UNLOCK_HPA so that HPA unlocking can be controlled per-device and update ata_dev_revalidate() such that it sets ATA_DFLAG_UNLOCK_HPA and fails with -EIO when the above condition is detected.

We know that with our M225 line of SSDs you sometimes need to disable NCQ (native command queuing) to avoid just the type of errors you're seeing. Our recommendation for the M225 is to add libata.force=noncq to your Linux kernel boot options, under the kernel ATA library option. I have sent your feedback to the engineers working on the C300, and asked them to please pass it on to the firmware team. I have been notified that they are in the process of testing and finalizing a new firmware version, that you can expect to see released around the end of April. We’ll keep you posted as to when it will be available for download. So, turn off NCQ on the drive w/ the current firmware revision.

| | * | | | rt2x00: Disable powersaving by default in rt2500usb.Gertjan van Wingerde2010-03-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Recent bug reports have shown that rt2500usb also suffers from the powersave problems that the PCI rt2x00 drivers suffer from. So disable powersaving by default for rt2500usb as well. Signed-off-by: Gertjan van Wingerde <gwingerde@gmail.com> Acked-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

| | * | | | iwlwifi: clear unattended interrupts in taskletShanyu Zhao2010-03-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously in interrupt handling tasklet, iwlwifi driver only clear/ack those interrupts that are enabled by the driver through inta_mask. If the hardware generates unattended interrupts, driver will not ack them, defeating the interrupt coalescing feature. This results in high number of interrupts per second and high CPU utilization. This patch addresses this issue by acking those unattended interrupts in the tasklet. Local test showed an order of magnitude improvement in terms of the number of interrupts without sacrificing networking throughput. This is a workaround for hardware issue.

| | * | | | mac80211: move netdev queue enabling to correct spotJohannes Berg2010-03-30

In hindsight it's totally obvious that enabling the netdev queues for a hardware queue when the hardware queue is enabled is wrong, because it could well possible that we can fill the hw queue with packets we already have pending. Thus, we must only enable the netdev queues once all the pending packets have been processed and sent off to the device. In testing, I haven't been able to trigger this race condition, but it's clearly there, possibly only when aggregation is being enabled.
