* [PATCH] PCMCIA: fix drivers broken by recent cleanupDaniel Ritz2007-01-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Setting .ConfigBase and .Present is now done at the pcmcia core. The driver cleanup missed a few places where the driver did set .Present to PRESENT_OPTION and later to the values from the CIS. Setting to PRESENT_OPTION now overrides the values from the CIS. So just remove those lines. Signed-off-by: Daniel Ritz <daniel.ritz@gmx.ch> Signed-off-by: Dominik Brodowski <linux@dominikbrodowski.net> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

This is ignored inside the int mii_phy_probe(struct mii_phy *phy, int address) from drivers/net/ibm_emac/ibm_emac_phy.c as the return value is assigned to an u32 variable.

| * | e1000: Do not truncate TSO TCP header with 82544 workaroundHerbert Xu2006-12-26

This is due to an erratum that could otherwise cause TX hangs. Unfortunately this breaks TSO because it may cause the TCP header to be split over two segments which itself causes TX hangs. The solution is to pull 4 bytes of data up from the next segment rather than pushing 4 bytes off. This ensures the TCP header remains in one piece and works around the PCI-X hang. This patch is based on one from Jesse Brandeburg. This bug has been trigered by both CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB as well as Xen. Note that the only reason we don't see this normally is because the TCP stack starts writing from the end, i.e., it writes the TCP header first then slaps on the IP header, etc. So the end of the TCP header (skb->tail - 1 here) is always aligned correctly. Had we made the start of the IP header (e.g., IPv6) 8-byte aligned instead, this would happen for normal TCP traffic as well.

This leads to some memory leak. We add a couple additional calls to save_state and restore_state so that we don't leak anymore. For the future, we are thinking of a better way to recover from parity error without using pci_save_state(). Signed-off-by: Brice Goglin <brice@myri.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

| * | [PATCH] e1000: No-delay link detection at interface upJesse Brandeburg2006-12-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently after an interface up, the link state is detected 2 seconds later when the first watchdog timer runs. This patch changes that by triggering the hardware to generate a link-change interrupt from the up() function instead. This has the result that the link state gets detected immediately and without races. This has the potential to speed up booting since a normal distribution boot process waits for a link before DHCP is attempted.
