2009-08-03sky2: Avoid transmits during sky2_down()Mike McCormack
This patch supersedes my previous patch "sky2: Avoid transmitting during sky2_restart". I have reworked the patch to avoid crashes during both sky2_restart() and sky2_set_ringparam(). Without this patch, the sky2 driver can be crashed by doing: # pktgen eth1 & (transmit many packets on eth1) # ethtool -G eth1 tx 510 I am aware you object to storing extra state, but I can't see a way around this. Without remembering that we're restarting, netif_wake_queue() is called in the ISR from sky2_tx_complete(), and netif_tx_lock() is used in sky2_tx_done(). If anybody can see a way around this, please let me know. Signed-off-by: Mike McCormack <mikem@ring3k.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Do all key clearing except sending sommands to device when rfkill enabled. When rfkill enabled the interface is brought down and will be brought back up correctly after rfkill is enabled again. Same change is not needed for iwl3945 as it ignores return code when sending key clearing command to device.

2009-08-03cfg80211: fix regression on beacon world roaming featureLuis R. Rodriguez
A regression was added through patch a4ed90d6: "cfg80211: respect API on orig_flags on channel for beacon hint" We did indeed respect _orig flags but the intention was not clearly stated in the commit log. This patch fixes firmware issues picked up by iwlwifi when we lift passive scan of beaconing restrictions on channels its EEPROM has been configured to always enable. By doing so though we also disallowed beacon hints on devices registering their wiphy with custom world regulatory domains enabled, this happens to be currently ath5k, ath9k and ar9170. The passive scan and beacon restrictions on those devices would never be lifted even if we did find a beacon and the hardware did support such enhancements when world roaming. Since Johannes indicates iwlwifi firmware cannot be changed to allow beacon hinting we set up a flag now to specifically allow drivers to disable beacon hints for devices which cannot use them. We enable the flag on iwlwifi to disable beacon hints and by default enable it for all other drivers. It should be noted beacon hints lift passive scan flags and beacon restrictions when we receive a beacon from an AP on any 5 GHz non-DFS channels, and channels 12-14 on the 2.4 GHz band. We don't bother with channels 1-11 as those channels are allowed world wide. This should fix world roaming for ath5k, ath9k and ar9170, thereby improving scan time when we receive the first beacon from any AP, and also enabling beaconing operation (AP/IBSS/Mesh) on cards which would otherwise not be allowed to do so. Drivers not using custom regulatory stuff (wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory()) were not affected by this as the orig_flags for the channels would have been cleared upon wiphy registration. I tested this with a world roaming ath5k card. Cc: Jouni Malinen <jouni.malinen@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: Luis R.

2009-08-02ppp: fix lost fragments in ppp_mp_explode() (resubmit)Ben McKeegan
This patch fixes the corner cases where the sum of MTU of the free channels (adjusted for fragmentation overheads) is less than the MTU of PPP link. There are at least 3 situations where this case might arise: - some of the channels are busy - the multilink session is running in a degraded state (i.e. with less than its full complement of active channels) - by design, where multilink protocol is being used to artificially increase the effective link MTU of a single link. Without this patch, at most 1 fragment is ever sent per free channel for a given PPP frame and any remaining part of the PPP frame that does not fit into those fragments is silently discarded. This patch restores the original behaviour which was broken by commit 9c705260feea6ae329bc6b6d5f6d2ef0227eda0a 'ppp:ppp_mp_explode() redesign'. Once all 'free' channels have been given a fragment, an additional fragment is queued to each available channel in turn, as many times as necessary, until the entire PPP frame has been consumed.

The RSC completions in hardware don't complete before the next ITR event tries to fire, so the ITR timer never gets re-armed.

2009-07-27iwlwifi: fix TX queue raceJohannes Berg
I had a problem on 4965 hardware (well, probably other hardware too, but others don't survive my stress testing right now, unfortunately) where the driver was sending invalid commands to the device, but no such thing could be seen from the driver's point of view. I could reproduce this fairly easily by sending multiple TCP streams with iperf on different TIDs, though sometimes a single iperf stream was sufficient. It even happened with a single core, but I have forced preemption turned on. The culprit was a queue overrun, where we advanced the queue's write pointer over the read pointer. After careful analysis I've come to the conclusion that the cause is a race condition between iwlwifi and mac80211. mac80211, of course, checks whether the queue is stopped, before transmitting a frame. This effectively looks like this: lock(queues) if (stopped(queue)) { unlock(queues) return busy; } unlock(queues) ... <-- this place will be important there is some more code here drv_tx(frame) The driver, on the other hand, can stop and start queues, which does lock(queues) mark_running/stopped(queue) unlock(queues) [if marked running: wake up tasklet to send pending frames] Now, however, once the driver starts the queue, mac80211 can see that and end up at the marked place above, at which point for some reason the driver seems to stop the queue again (I don't understand that) and then we end up transmitting while the queue is actually full. Now, this shouldn't actually matter much, but for some reason I've seen it happen multiple times in a row and the queue actually overflows, at which point the queue bites itself in the tail and things go completely wrong. This patch fixes this by just dropping the packet should this have happened, and making the lock in iwlwifi cover everything so iwlwifi can't race against itself (dropping the lock there might make it more likely, but it did seem to happen without that too). Since we can't hold the lock across drv_tx() above, I see no way to fix this in mac80211, but I also don't understand why I haven't seen this before -- maybe I just never stress tested it this badly. With this patch, the device has survived many minutes of simultanously sending two iperf streams on different TIDs with combined throughput of about 60 Mbps.

Certain types of control packets (LLDP, LACP, etc.) are not supposed to have a priority tag or vlan tag inserted. Ixgbe driver is currently priority tagging everything (if packet is not on a VLAN interface). This patch modifies DCB mode, so that packets marked with skb priority TC_PRIO_CONTROL are not priority tagged. It also transmits these packets on the highest priority traffic class. Programs (like dcbd) can set the skb priority using a socket option. Or, a tc filter can be configured to set the priority value. Using the value TC_PRIO_CONTROL (7) has the benefit that it is already defined in the kernel, and the bonding LACP code already sets the skb->priority field to this value.

2009-07-23net: Rework mdio-ofgpio driver to use of_mdio infrastructureMark Ware
Changes to the fs_enet driver aa73832c5a80d6c52c69b18af858d88fa595dd3c ("net: Rework fs_enet driver to use of_mdio infrastructure") cause kernel crashes when using the mdio-ofgpio driver. This patch replicates similar changes made to the fs_enet mii-bitbang drivers. It has been tested on a custom mpc8280 based board using an NFS mounted root.

2009-07-22register at91_ether using platform_driver_probeUwe Kleine-König
at91ether_probe lives in .init.text, so using platform_driver_register to register it is wrong because binding a device after the init memory is discarded (e.g. via sysfs) results in an oops. As requested by David Brownell platform_driver_probe is used instead of moving the probe function to .devinit.text as proposed initially. This saves some memory, but devices registered after the driver is probed are not bound (probably there are none) and binding via sysfs isn't possible.

2009-07-22skge: Enable WoL by default if supportedRafael J. Wysocki
If skge hardware is capable of waking up the system from sleep, enable magic packet WoL during driver initialisation. This makes WoL work without calling 'ethtool -s ethX wol g' for each adapter.
