| * e1000e: Fix incorrect debug warningLinus Torvalds2008-10-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Doing 'WARN_ON(preempt_count())' was horribly horribly wrong, and would cause tons of warnings at bootup if PREEMPT was enabled because the initcalls currently run with the kernel lock, which increments the preempt count. At the same time, the warning was also insufficient, since it didn't check that interrupts were enabled. The proper debug function to use for something that can sleep and wants a warning if it's called in the wrong context is 'might_sleep()'.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | e1000e was apparently calling two functions that attempted to reserve the SWFLAG bit for exclusive (to hardware and firmware) access to the PHY and NVM (aka eeprom).

ANI is as algorithm designed to minimize the detrimental effects of time-varying interferences. This should help with throughput in noisy environments. To use ANI we re-enable the MIB interrupt.

But when it stores the irq value, it has been performing an integer demotion. Because of the recent changes made to arch/x86/kernel/io_apic.c, the new method in creating the irq value (using build_irq_for_pci_dev()) has exposed this bug on x86 systems. Because of this demotion when calling request_irq() from bnx2_request_irq(), the driver would get a return code of -EINVAL. This is because the kernel could not find the requested irq descriptor. By storing the irq value properly, the kernel can find the correct irq descriptor and the bnx2 driver can operate normally.

This will likely require some further cleanup to get seq# correctly for Beacons vs. other frames and also potentially for multiple BSSes. Anyway, this is better than ending up sending out most frames with seq# 0. (This is a backport of patch w/ same title already in net-next-2.6. It is verified to fix http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11394 and it should be acceptable for -rc due to the driver being new in 2.6.27.)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | According to the newly-released Atheros HAL code, asserting the TSF reset bit will toggle a hardware internal state, resulting in a spurious reset on the next chip reset. Whenever we force a TSF bit, write the bit twice to clear the internal signal. Signed-off-by: Bob Copeland <me@bobcopeland.com> Acked-by: Nick Kossifidis <mickflemm@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix by disabling rt2x00 rfkill support when rt2x00 is built-in and rfkill has been modularized, and a similar scheme for the relationship between leds_class and rt2x00.. Also, give a warning to the end-user when rfkill-/leds-support is disabled this way, so that the end-user has at least some clues on what is going on. Proper fixing required some general updates of the Kconfig-structure for the rt2x00 driver, whereby internal configuration symbols had to be moved to after the user-visible configuration symbols.
