* [PATCH] acpi bridge hotadd: Read bridge resources when fixing up the busRajesh Shah2005-06-28
| | | | | | | | | | Read bridge io/mem/pfmem ranges when fixing up the bus so that bus resources are tracked. This is required to properly support pci end device and bridge hotplug.

If we fail to assign a resource, clear the corresponding value in the pci_dev structure, so other code can take corrective action.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | hot-plug When a root bridge hierarchy is hot-plugged, resource requirements for the new devices may be greater than what the root bridge is decoding. In this case, we want to remove devices that did not get needed resources. These devices have been scanned into bus specific lists but not yet added to the global device list. Make sure the pci remove functions can handle this case.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | on creation When a pci child bus is created, add it to the parent's children list immediately rather than waiting till pci_bus_add_devices(). For hot-plug bridges/devices, pci_bus_add_devices() may be called much later, after they have been properly configured. In the meantime, this allows us to use the normal pci bus search functions for the hot-plug bridges/buses.

* [PATCH] acpi bridge hotadd: Make pcibios_fixup_bus() hot-plug safeRajesh Shah2005-06-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | PCI scan code calls the arch specific pcibios_fixup_bus() each time it scans a new bridge. For root bridge hot-plug, the bridge and it's attached devices may not have been configured properly yet, so it's not safe to claim those resources at this time. This code goes away when we clean up the way pci resources are claimed (in pci_enable_device()), so this is only a stopgap fix.

* [PATCH] acpi bridge hotadd: Fix pci_enable_device() for p2p bridgesRajesh Shah2005-06-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | When checking if a PCI to PCI bridge should be enabled to decode memory and/or IO resources, we need to look at all device resources not just the first 6. This is needed to allow PCI bridges to pass down memory and IO accesses to child devices even when the bridge itself does not consume resources in its PCI BARs.

* [PATCH] acpi bridge hotadd: ACPI based root bridge hot-addRajesh Shah2005-06-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When you hot-plug a (root) bridge hierarchy, it may have p2p bridges and devices attached to it that have not been configured by firmware. In this case, we need to configure the devices before starting them. This patch separates device start from device scan so that we can introduce the configuration step in the middle. I kept the existing semantics for pci_scan_bus() since there are a huge number of callers to that function. Also, I have no way of testing the changes I made to the parisc files, so this needs review by those folks. Sorry for the massive cross-post, this touches files in many different places.

* [PATCH] PCI Allow OutOfRange PIRQ table addressjayalk@intworks.biz2005-06-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I updated this to remove unnecessary variable initialization, make check_routing be inline only and not __init, switch to strtoul, and formatting fixes as per Randy Dunlap's recommendations. I updated this to change pirq_table_addr to a long, and to add a warning msg if the PIRQ table wasn't found at the specified address, as per thread with Matthew Wilcox. In our hardware situation, the BIOS is unable to store or generate it's PIRQ table in the F0000h-100000h standard range. This patch adds a pci kernel parameter, pirqaddr to allow the bootloader (or BIOS based loader) to inform the kernel where the PIRQ table got stored. A beneficial side-effect is that, if one's BIOS uses a static address each time for it's PIRQ table, then pirqaddr can be used to avoid the $pirq search through that address block each time at boot for normal PIRQ BIOSes.

| * [IPVS]: Fix for overflowspageexec2005-06-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | From: <pageexec@freemail.hu> $subject was fixed in 2.4 already, 2.6 needs it as well. The impact of the bugs is a kernel stack overflow and privilege escalation from CAP_NET_ADMIN via the IP_VS_SO_SET_STARTDAEMON/IP_VS_SO_GET_DAEMON ioctls. People running with 'root=all caps' (i.e., most users) are not really affected (there's nothing to escalate), but SELinux and similar users should take it seriously if they grant CAP_NET_ADMIN to other users.

| * [NETLINK]: Fix two socket hashing bugs.David S. Miller2005-06-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1) netlink_release() should only decrement the hash entry count if the socket was actually hashed. This was causing hash->entries to underflow, which resulting in all kinds of troubles. On 64-bit systems, this would cause the following conditional to erroneously trigger: err = -ENOMEM; if (BITS_PER_LONG > 32 && unlikely(hash->entries >= UINT_MAX)) goto err; 2) netlink_autobind() needs to propagate the error return from netlink_insert(). Otherwise, callers will not see the error as they should and thus try to operate on a socket with a zero pid, which is very bad. However, it should not propagate -EBUSY. If two threads race to autobind the socket, that is fine. This is consistent with the autobind behavior in other protocols. So bug #1 above, combined with this one, resulted in hangs on netlink_sendmsg() calls to the rtnetlink socket. We'd try to do the user sendmsg() with the socket's pid set to zero, later we do a socket lookup using that pid (via the value we stashed away in NETLINK_CB(skb).pid), but that won't give us the user socket, it will give us the rtnetlink socket. So when we try to wake up the receive queue, we dive back into rtnetlink_rcv() which tries to recursively take the rtnetlink semaphore. Thanks to Jakub Jelink for providing backtraces. Also, thanks to Herbert Xu for supplying debugging patches to help track this down, and also finding a mistake in an earlier version of this fix. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Improvement: instead of *always* calculating lea 0x2c0(%edx),%ebx and then additionally doing the mov %edx,0xc0(%ebx) addition *if we need it*, we now do the *whole* calculation of mov %edx,0x380(%ebx) *only* if we need it. This even manages to save us a whole 16-byte alignment buffer loss in this compilation case. Result: slightly improves IRQ handler performance in both shared and non-shared IRQ case, which should make my rusty P3/700 a slight bit happier.

There is no allowance for processor speed so on a fast machine, the stats may not be available that fast. Also, if the board doesn't return soon enough make sure turn the address back off to prevent later updates when memory has gone away.

Default mode (what we have now: xor of MAC addresses) is "layer2", new choice is "layer3+4", using IP and port information for hashing to select peer. Originally submitted by Jason Gabler for balance-xor mode; modified by Jay Vosburgh to additionally support 802.3ad mode. Jason's original comment is as follows: The attached patch to the Linux Etherchannel Bonding driver modifies the driver's "balance-xor" mode as follows: - alternate hashing policy support for mode 2 * Added kernel parameter "xmit_policy" to allow the specification of different hashing policies for mode 2. The original mode 2 policy is the default, now found in xmit_hash_policy_layer2(). * Added xmit_hash_policy_layer34() This patch was inspired by hashing policies implemented by Cisco, Foundry and IBM, which are explained in Foundry documentation found at: http://www.foundrynet.com/services/documentation/sribcg/Trunking.html#112750 Signed-off-by: Jason Gabler <jygabler@lbl.gov> Signed-off-by: Jay Vosburgh <fubar@us.ibm.com>
