| | * rt2x00: Thrustmaster FunAccess WIFI USB and rt73usbMichal Szalata2009-09-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Thrustmaster FunAccess WIFI USB works with rt73usb with little modification of rt73usb.c. Tested with version 2.3.0 of driver.

| | * mac80211_hwsim: Fix initial beacon timer configurationJouni Malinen2009-09-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | mac80211_hwsim does not start transmitting Beacon frames when hostapd is started for the first time and restarting hostapd fixes this. The issue is caused by the config() handler not being able to start beacon_timer when beacon interval is not yet known and bss_info_changed() handler not starting the timer. This can be fixed by making the bss_info_changed() update the timer. Signed-off-by: Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
| | * b43: Always use block-I/O for the PIO data registersMichael Buesch2009-09-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On SDIO the PIO data register seems to be hardwired to LE. So the MACCTL bit has no effect on the endianness. So also use block-I/O for the last word of the packet. block-I/O is always LE. Signed-off-by: Michael Buesch <mb@bu3sch.de> Tested-by: Albert Herranz <albert_herranz@yahoo.es> Signed-off-by: John W.

| * | 3c59x: Rework suspend and resumeAnton Vorontsov2009-09-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As noticed by Alan Stern, there is still one issue with the driver: we disable PCI IRQ on suspend, but other devices on the same IRQ line might still need the IRQ enabled to suspend properly. Nowadays, PCI core handles all power management work by itself, with one condition though: if we use dev_pm_ops. So, rework the driver to only quiesce 3c59x internal logic on suspend, while PCI core will manage PCI device power state with IRQs disabled. Suggested-by: Rafael J.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ATR support for UDP on 82599 needs to be redesigned, since the current model doesn't make much sense. The fallout from having it in though is it causes all UDP traffic to still compute the ATR hashes on transmit, which are useless. This removal will return upwards of 10% of relative computational overhead in forwarding tests.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When LRO is enabled, the received packet and byte counters represent the LRO'd packets, not the packets/bytes on the wire. The Intel 82599 NIC has registers that keep count of the physical packets. Add these counters to the ethtool stats. The byte counters are 36-bit, but the high 4 bits were being ignored in the 2.6.31 ixgbe driver: Read those as well to allow longer time between polling the stats to detect wraps.

| * | ixgbe: Fix disabling of relaxed ordering with Tx DCAPeter P Waskiewicz Jr2009-09-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 82599 has a different register offset for the Tx DCA control registers. We disable relaxed ordering of the descriptor writebacks for Tx head writeback, but didn't disable it properly for 82599. However, this shouldn't be a visible issue, since ixgbe doesn't use Tx head writeback. This patch just makes sure we're not doing blind writes to offsets we don't expect.

| * iwlwifi: fix 3945 ucode info retrieval after failureReinette Chatre2009-09-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When hardware or uCode problem occurs driver captures significant information from device to enable debugging. The format of this information is different between 3945 and 4965 and later devices, yet currently the 3945 uses the 4965 and later format. Fix this by adding a new library call that is initialized to the correct formatting routine based on device. This moves the iwlagn event and error log handling back to iwl-agn.c to make it part of iwlagn module. Also remove the 3945 sysfs file that triggers dump of event log - there is already a debugfs file that can do it for all drivers.

When writing to the buffer we thus take the buffer pointer and adding the count of what has been written so far. Keeping track of what has been written so far is done by incrementing this number every time something is written to the buffer with how much has been written at that time. Currently this number is incremented incorrectly when using the "hex_dump_to_buffer" call to add data to the buffer. Fix this by only adding what has been added to the buffer in that call instead of what has been added since beginning of buffer.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now we can tell the theoretical capacity remaining in the output queue, virtio_net can waste entries by stopping the queue early. It doesn't work in the case of indirect buffers and kmalloc failure, but that's rare (we could drop the packet in that case, but other drivers return TX_BUSY for similar reasons). For the record, I think this patch reflects poorly on the linux network API. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Cc: Dinesh Subhraveti <dineshs@us.ibm.com>

| | * virtio_net: don't free buffers in xmit ringRusty Russell2009-09-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The virtio_net driver is complicated by the two methods of freeing old xmit buffers (in addition to freeing old ones at the start of the xmit path). The original code used a 1/10 second timer attached to xmit_free(), reset on every xmit. Before we orphaned skbs on xmit, the transmitting userspace could block with a full socket until the timer fired, the skb destructor was called, and they were re-woken. So we added the VIRTIO_F_NOTIFY_ON_EMPTY feature: supporting devices send an interrupt (even if normally suppressed) on an empty xmit ring which makes us schedule xmit_tasklet(). This was a benchmark win. Unfortunately, VIRTIO_F_NOTIFY_ON_EMPTY makes quite a lot of work: a host which is faster than the guest will fire the interrupt every xmit packet (slowing the guest down further). Attempting mitigation in the host adds overhead of userspace timers (possibly with the additional pain of signals), and risks increasing latency anyway if you get it wrong. In practice, this effect was masked by benchmarks which take advantage of GSO (with its inherent transmit batching), but it's still there. Now we orphan xmitted skbs, the pressure is off: remove both paths and no longer request VIRTIO_F_NOTIFY_ON_EMPTY. Note that the current QEMU will notify us even if we don't negotiate this feature (legal, but suboptimal); a patch is outstanding to improve that. Move the skb_orphan/nf_reset to after we've done the send and notified the other end, for a slight optimization.

| | * virtio_net: return NETDEV_TX_BUSY instead of queueing an extra skb.Rusty Russell2009-09-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This effectively reverts 99ffc696d10b28580fe93441d627cf290ac4484c "virtio: wean net driver off NETDEV_TX_BUSY". The complexity of queuing an skb (setting a tasklet to re-xmit) is questionable, especially once we get rid of the other reason for the tasklet in the next patch. If the skb won't fit in the tx queue, just return NETDEV_TX_BUSY. This is frowned upon, so a followup patch uses a more complex solution.

| | * virtio_net: skb_orphan() and nf_reset() in xmit path.Rusty Russell2009-09-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The complex transmit free logic was introduced to avoid hangs on removing the ip_conntrack module and also because drivers aren't generally supposed to keep stale skbs for unbounded times. After some debate, it was decided that while doing skb_orphan() generally is a rat's nest, we can do it in this driver. Following patches take advantage of this.
