* natsemi: Support Aculab E1/T1 PMXc cPCI carrier cardsMark Brown2007-02-20
| | | | | | | | | | Aculab E1/T1 PMXc cPCI carrier card cards present a natsemi on the cPCI bus with an oversized EEPROM using a direct MII<->MII connection with no PHY. This patch adds a new device table entry supporting these cards. Signed-Off-By: Mark Brown <broonie@sirena.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
* natsemi: Add support for using MII port with no PHYMark Brown2007-02-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch provides code paths which allow the natsemi driver to use the external MII port on the chip but ignore any PHYs that may be attached to it. The link state will be left as it was when the driver started and can be configured via ethtool. Any PHYs that are present can be accessed via the MII ioctl()s. This is useful for systems where the device is connected without a PHY or where either information or actions outside the scope of the driver are required in order to use the PHYs.

* skge: race with workq and RTNLStephen Hemminger2007-02-20
| | | | | | | | | | If a workqueue function that needs RTNL is running when skge_down is called then a deadlock is possible. Fix by only clearing the timer, and handling the flush_scheduled_work on removal. This work queue is only ever used for the old fiber based boards.

* r8169: RTNL and flush_scheduled_work deadlockFrancois Romieu2007-02-20
| | | | | | | | | | | flush_scheduled_work() in net_device->close has a slight tendency to deadlock with tasks on the workqueue that hold RTNL. rtl8169_close/down simply need the recovery tasks to not meddle with the hardware while the device is going down.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | From the 01408c4939479ec46c15aa7ef6e2406be50eeeca log message: The problem is that when we write to a file, the copy from userspace to pagecache is first done with preemption disabled, so if the source address is not immediately available the copy fails *and* *zeros* *the* *destination*. This is a problem because a concurrent read (which admittedly is an odd thing to do) might see zeros rather that was there before the write, or what was there after, or some mixture of the two (any of these being a reasonable thing to see). If the copy did fail, it will immediately be retried with preemption re-enabled so any transient problem with accessing the source won't cause an error. The first copying does not need to zero any uncopied bytes, and doing so causes the problem. It uses copy_from_user_atomic rather than copy_from_user so the simple expedient is to change copy_from_user_atomic to *not* zero out bytes on failure. < --- end cite --- > This patch finally implements at least a not so pretty solution by duplicating the relevant part of __copy_user.

This patch updates "hwmon" to do so.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Many hardware monitoring drivers use two different mutexes, one to protect their per-device data structure, and one to protect the access to the device registers. These mutexes are essentially redundant, as the drivers are transfering values between the device registers and the data cache, so they almost always end up holding both mutexes at the same time. Using a single mutex will make the code more simple and faster. I am changing only two of the affected drivers here, the authors of the other affected drivers are welcome to submit similar patches if they want. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
