* bonding: update docs to correctly reflect arp_ip_target behaviorAndy Gospodarek2008-11-02
| | | | | | | | | | This documentation patch hopes to clarify that the '+' was only needed for Fedora 7 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.0 and 5.1. After that the IP addreses could be added as a comma separated list just like the module option. Signed-off-by: Andy Gospodarek <andy@greyhouse.net> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>
* wireless: remove struct regdom hintingJohannes Berg2008-10-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The code needs to be split out and cleaned up, so as a first step remove the capability, to add it back in a subsequent patch as a separate function. Also remove the publically facing return value of the function and the wiphy argument. A number of internal functions go from being generic helpers to just being used for alpha2 setting.

* rfkill: add master_switch_mode and EPO lock to rfkill and rfkill-inputHenrique de Moraes Holschuh2008-10-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add of software-based sanity to rfkill and rfkill-input so that it can reproduce what hardware-based EPO switches do, blocking all transmitters and locking down any further attempts to unblock them until the switch is deactivated. rfkill-input is responsible for issuing the EPO control requests, like before. While an rfkill EPO is active, all transmitters are locked to one of the BLOCKED states and all attempts to change that through the rfkill API (userspace and kernel) will be either ignored or return -EPERM errors. The lock will be released upon receipt of EV_SW SW_RFKILL_ALL ON by rfkill-input, or should modular rfkill-input be unloaded. This makes rfkill and rfkill-input extend the operation of an existing wireless master kill switch to all wireless devices in the system, even those that are not under hardware or firmware control. Since the above is the expected operational behavior for the master rfkill switch, the EPO lock functionality is not optional. Also, extend rfkill-input to allow for three different behaviors when it receives an EV_SW SW_RFKILL_ALL ON input event. The user can set which behavior he wants through the master_switch_mode parameter: master_switch_mode = 0: EV_SW SW_RFKILL_ALL ON just unlocks rfkill controller state changes (so that the rfkill userspace and kernel APIs can now be used to change rfkill controller states again), but doesn't change any of their states (so they will all remain blocked). This is the safest mode of operation, as it requires explicit operator action to re-enable a transmitter. master_switch_mode = 1: EV_SW SW_RFKILL_ALL ON causes rfkill-input to attempt to restore the system to the state before the last EV_SW SW_RFKILL_ALL OFF event, or to the default global states if no EV_SW SW_RFKILL_ALL OFF ever happened. This is the recommended mode of operation for laptops. master_switch_mode = 2: tries to unblock all rfkill controllers (i.e. enable all transmitters) when an EV_SW SW_RFKILL_ALL ON event is received. This is the default mode of operation, as it mimics the previous behavior of rfkill-input. In order to implement these features in a clean way, the entire event handling of rfkill-input was refactored into a single worker function. Protection against input event DoS (repeatedly firing rfkill events for rfkill-input to process) was removed during the code refactoring. It will be added back in a future patch. Note that with these changes, rfkill-input doesn't need to explicitly handle any radio types for which KEY_<radio type> or SW_<radio type> events do not exist yet. Code to handle EV_SW SW_{WLAN,WWAN,BLUETOOTH,WIMAX,...} was added as it might be needed in the future (and its implementation is not that obvious), but is currently #ifdef'd out to avoid wasting resources.

Ftrace uses this information to display to the user if the trace occurred with interrupts enabled or disabled. Besides the fact that those archs that do not support this will fail to compile, unless they fix it, we do not want to have the trace simply say interrupts were not disabled or they were enabled, without knowing the real answer. This patch adds a 'X' in the output to let the user know that the architecture they are running on does not support a way for the tracer to determine if interrupts were enabled or disabled. It also lets those same archs compile with tracing enabled. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

|/ / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a patch to provide on demand route cache rebuilding. Currently, our route cache is rebulid periodically regardless of need. This introduced unneeded periodic latency. This patch offers a better approach. Using code provided by Eric Dumazet, we compute the standard deviation of the average hash bucket chain length while running rt_check_expire. Should any given chain length grow to larger that average plus 4 standard deviations, we trigger an emergency hash table rebuild for that net namespace. This allows for the common case in which chains are well behaved and do not grow unevenly to not incur any latency at all, while those systems (which may be being maliciously attacked), only rebuild when the attack is detected. This patch take 2 other factors into account: 1) chains with multiple entries that differ by attributes that do not affect the hash value are only counted once, so as not to unduly bias system to rebuilding if features like QOS are heavily used 2) if rebuilding crosses a certain threshold (which is adjustable via the added sysctl in this patch), route caching is disabled entirely for that net namespace, since constant rebuilding is less efficient that no caching at all Tested successfully by me.

| | * | | | ACPI: Add "acpi.power_nocheck=1" to disable power state check in power ↵Zhao Yakui2008-10-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | transition Maybe the incorrect power state is returned on the bogus bios, which is different with the real power state. For example: the bios returns D0 state and the real power state is D3. OS expects to set the device to D0 state. In such case if OS uses the power state returned by the BIOS and checks the device power state very strictly in power transition, the device can't be transited to the correct power state. So the boot option of "acpi.power_nocheck=1" is added to avoid checking the device power in the course of device power transition. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8049 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11000 Signed-off-by: Zhao Yakui <yakui.zhao@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Zhang Rui <rui.zhang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Li Shaohua <shaohua.li@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
