| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This converts pretty much everything to print_mac. There were a few things that had conflicts which I have just dropped for now, no harm done. I've built an allyesconfig with this and looked at the files that weren't built very carefully, but it's a huge patch. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

* | | RDMA/nes: Remove tx_free_listFaisal Latif2008-12-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is no lock protecting tx_free_list thus causing a system crash when skb_dequeue() is called and the list is empty. Since it did not give any performance boost under heavy load, remove it to simplify the code. Replace get_free_pkt() with dev_alloc_skb() to allocate MAX_CM_BUFFER skb for connection establishment/teardown as well as MPA request/response.

* | | RDMA/nes: Avoid race between MPA request and reset event to rdma_cmFaisal Latif2008-12-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In passive open, after indicating MPA request to rdma_cm, an incoming RST would fire a reset event to rdma_cm causing it to crash, since the current state is not connected. The solution is to wait for nes_accept() or nes_reject() before firing the reset event. If nes_accept() or nes_reject() is already done, then the reset event will be fired when RST is processed.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While processing connected_nodes list, we would release the lock when we need to send reset to remote partner.

* RDMA/nes: Fix off-by-one in nes_reg_user_mr() error pathRoland Dreier2008-06-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | nes_reg_user_mr() should fail if page_count becomes >= 1024 * 512 rather than just testing for strict >, because page_count is essentially used as an index into an array with 1024 * 512 entries, so allowing the loop to continue with page_count == 1024 * 512 means that memory after the end of the array is corrupted. This leads to a crash triggerable by a userspace application that requests registration of a too-big region. Also get rid of the call to pci_free_consistent() here to avoid corrupting state with a double free, since the same memory will be freed in the code jumped to at reg_user_mr_err.

* RDMA/nes: Remove volatile qualifier from struct nes_hw_cq.cq_vbaseRoland Dreier2008-04-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Remove the volatile qualifier from the cq_vbase member of struct nes_hw_cq, and add an rmb() in the one place where it looks like access order might make a difference. As usual, removing a volatile qualifier in a declaration is actually a bug fix, since a volatile qualifier is not sufficient to make sure that aggressively out-of-order CPUs don't reorder things and cause incorrect results. For example, a CPU might speculatively execute reads of other cqe fields before the NIC hardware has written those fields and before it has set the NES_CQE_VALID bit (even though those reads come after the test of the NES_CQE_VALID bit in program order), but then when the CPU actually executes the conditional test of the NES_CQE_VALID, the bit has been set, and the CPU will proceed with the results of the earlier speculative execution and end up using bogus data. This also gets rid of the warning: drivers/infiniband/hw/nes/nes_verbs.c: In function 'nes_destroy_cq': drivers/infiniband/hw/nes/nes_verbs.c:1978: warning: passing argument 3 of 'pci_free_consistent' discards qualifiers from pointer target type Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
