8d3a564da3 tcp: tcp_vegas cong avoid fix
This patch addresses a book-keeping issue in tcp_vegas.c.  At present
tcp_vegas does separate book-keeping of cwnd based on packet sequence
numbers.  A mismatch can develop between this book-keeping and
tp->snd_cwnd due, for example, to delayed acks acking multiple
packets.  When vegas transitions to reno operation (e.g. following
loss), then this mismatch leads to incorrect behaviour (akin to a cwnd
backoff).  This seems mostly to affect operation at low cwnds where
delayed acking can lead to a significant fraction of cwnd being
covered by a single ack, leading to the book-keeping mismatch.  This
patch modifies the congestion avoidance update to avoid the need for
separate book-keeping while leaving vegas congestion avoidance
functionally unchanged.  A secondary advantage of this modification is
that the use of fixed-point (via V_PARAM_SHIFT) and 64 bit arithmetic
is no longer necessary, simplifying the code.

Some example test measurements with the patched code (confirming no functional
change in the congestion avoidance algorithm) can be seen at:

8c83f80b2d sungem: Make PCS PHY support partially work again.
As reported by Hermann Lauer, PCS PHY support in the sungem
driver simply doesn't work.

When the chip is reset due to open, or some other similar operation,
the PCS is reset too but we don't program it back into a running
state.  The result is no link when the device is brought up.

This partially rectifies the situation for the moment, by kicking
the PCS after a sungem chip reset so that it will renegotiate and
be re-enabled again.

The behavior is still a little bit dodgy as the added renegotiate
make the link take some time after bringing the interface up,
but this is a significant improvement in that things actually work
now :-)

Based almost entirely upon an initial patch by Hermann.

cde6901b7b zd1211rw: use unaligned safe memcmp() in-place of compare_ether_addr()
Under my 2.6.28-rc6 sparc64, when associating to an AP through my
zd1211rw device, I was seeing kernel log messages like (not exact output):

  Kernel unaligned access at TPC[10129b68] zd_mac_rx+0x144/0x32c [zd1211rw]

For the zd1211rw module, on RX, the 80211 packet will be located after
the PLCP header in the skb data buffer. The PLCP header being 5 bytes
long, the 80211 header will start unaligned from an aligned skb
buffer.

As per Documentation/unaligned-memory-access.txt, we must replace the
not unaligned() safe compare_ether_addr() with memcmp() to protect
architectures that require alignment.

5cf12e8dc6 mac80211: use unaligned safe memcmp() in-place of compare_ether_addr()
After fixing zd1211rw: use unaligned safe memcmp() in-place of
compare_ether_addr(), I started to see kernel log messages detailing
unaligned access:

  Kernel unaligned access at TPC[100f7f44] sta_info_get+0x24/0x68 [mac80211]

As with the aforementioned patch, the unaligned access was eminating
from a compare_ether_addr() call. Concerned that whilst it was safe to
assume that unalignment was the norm for the zd1211rw, and take
preventative measures, it may not be the case or acceptable to use the
easy fix of changing the call to memcmp().

My research however indicated that it was OK to do this, as there are
a few instances where memcmp() is the preferred mechanism for doing
mac address comparisons throughout the module.

b8ddafd759 ipw2200: fix netif_*_queue() removal regression
In "ipw2200: Call netif_*_queue() interfaces properly", netif_stop_queue()
and netif_wake_queue() were removed with the reason
"netif_carrier_{on,off}() handles starting and stopping packet flow into
the driver". The patch also removes a valid condition check that
ipw_tx_skb() cannot be called if device is not in STATUS_ASSOCIATED state.
But netif_carrier_off() doesn't guarantee netdev->hard_start_xmit won't
be called because linkwatch event is handled in a delayed workqueue. This
caused a kernel oops reported by Frank Seidel:
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=397390

This patch fixes the problem by moving the STATUS_ASSOCIATED check back
to ipw_tx_skb(). It also adds a missing netif_carrier_off() call to
ipw_disassociate().

40a9a82991 iwlwifi: clean key table in iwl_clear_stations_table function
This patch cleans uCode key table bit map iwl_clear_stations_table
since all stations are cleared also the key table must be.

Since the keys are not removed properly on suspend by mac80211
this may result in exhausting key table on resume leading
to memory corruption during removal

This patch also fixes a memory corruption problem reported in
http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=122641417231586&w=2 and tracked in
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12040.

When the key is removed a second time the offset is set to 255 - this
index is not valid for the ucode_key_table and corrupts the eeprom pointer
(which is 255 bits from ucode_key_table).

a6af2d6ba5 tcp: tcp_vegas ssthresh bug fix
This patch fixes a bug in tcp_vegas.c.  At the moment this code leaves
ssthresh untouched.  However, this means that the vegas congestion
control algorithm is effectively unable to reduce cwnd below the
ssthresh value (if the vegas update lowers the cwnd below ssthresh,
then slow start is activated to raise it back up).  One example where
this matters is when during slow start cwnd overshoots the link
capacity and a flow then exits slow start with ssthresh set to a value
above where congestion avoidance would like to adjust it.

f8269a495a tcp: make urg+gso work for real this time
I should have noticed this earlier... :-) The previous solution
to URG+GSO/TSO will cause SACK block tcp_fragment to do zig-zig
patterns, or even worse, a steep downward slope into packet
counting because each skb pcount would be truncated to pcount
of 2 and then the following fragments of the later portion would
restore the window again.

Basically this reverts "tcp: Do not use TSO/GSO when there is
urgent data" (33cf71cee1). It also removes some unnecessary code
from tcp_current_mss that didn't work as intented either (could
be that something was changed down the road, or it might have
been broken since the dawn of time) because it only works once
urg is already written while this bug shows up starting from
~64k before the urg point.

The retransmissions already are split to mss sized chunks, so
only new data sending paths need splitting in case they have
a segment otherwise suitable for gso/tso. The actually check
can be improved to be more narrow but since this is late -rc
already, I'll postpone thinking the more fine-grained things.

1c594c05a7 b1isa: fix b1isa_exit() to really remove registered capi controllers
On "/etc/init.d/capiutils stop", this oops happened.

The oops happens on reading /proc/capi/controllers because
capi_ctrl->procinfo is called for the wrongly not unregistered
controller, which points to b1isa_procinfo(), which was removed on
module unload.

b1isa_exit() did not call b1isa_remove() for its controllers because
io[0] == 0 on module unload despite having been 0x340 on module load.

Besides, just removing the controllers that where added on module
load time and not those that were added later via b1isa_add_card() is
wrong too - the place where all added cards are found is isa_dev[].

d253eee201 can: Fix CAN_(EFF|RTR)_FLAG handling in can_filter
Due to a wrong safety check in af_can.c it was not possible to filter
for SFF frames with a specific CAN identifier without getting the
same selected CAN identifier from a received EFF frame also.

This fix has a minimum (but user visible) impact on the CAN filter
API and therefore the CAN version is set to a new date.

Indeed the 'old' API is still working as-is. But when now setting
CAN_(EFF|RTR)_FLAG in can_filter.can_mask you might get less traffic
than before - but still the stuff that you expected to get for your
defined filter ...

efba01803c bnx2: Add workaround to handle missed MSI.
The bnx2 chips do not support per MSI vector masking.  On 5706/5708, new MSI
address/data are stored only when the MSI enable bit is toggled.  As a result,
SMP affinity no longer works in the latest kernel.  A more serious problem is
that the driver will no longer receive interrupts when the MSI receiving CPU
goes offline.

The workaround in this patch only addresses the problem of CPU going offline.
When that happens, the driver's timer function will detect that it is making
no forward progress on pending interrupt events and will recover from it.

Eric Dumazet reported the problem.

We also found that if an interrupt is internally asserted while MSI and INTA
are disabled, the chip will end up in the same state after MSI is re-enabled.
The same workaround is needed for this problem.

In the CONFIG_SMP case the irq_choose_cpu() code was returning back
a logical cpu id not the physical id.  We were writing that directly
into the HW register.

We need to be calling get_hard_smp_processor_id() so irq_choose_cpu()
always returns a physical cpu id.

9ff473b9a7 vmscan: evict streaming IO first
Count the insertion of new pages in the statistics used to drive the
pageout scanning code.  This should help the kernel quickly evict
streaming file IO.

We count on the fact that new file pages start on the inactive file LRU
and new anonymous pages start on the active anon list.  This means
streaming file IO will increment the recent scanned file statistic, while
leaving the recent rotated file statistic alone, driving pageout scanning
to the file LRUs.

Pageout activity does its own list manipulation.

f1d0b063d9 bdi: register sysfs bdi device only once per queue
Devices which share the same queue, like floppies and mtd devices, get
registered multiple times in the bdi interface, but bdi accounts only the
last registered device of the devices sharing one queue.

On remove, all earlier registered devices leak, stay around in sysfs, and
cause "duplicate filename" errors if the devices are re-created.

This prevents the creation of multiple bdi interfaces per queue, and the
bdi device will carry the dev_t name of the block device which is the
first one registered, of the pool of devices using the same queue.

6636487e8d amd74xx: workaround unreliable AltStatus register for nVidia controllers
It seems that on some nVidia controllers using AltStatus register
can be unreliable so default to Status register if the PCI device
is in Compatibility Mode.  In order to achieve this:

* Add ide_pci_is_in_compatibility_mode() inline helper to <linux/ide.h>.

* Add IDE_HFLAG_BROKEN_ALTSTATUS host flag and set it in amd74xx host
  driver for nVidia controllers in Compatibility Mode.

* Teach actual_try_to_identify() and drive_is_ready() about the new flag.

This fixes the regression caused by removal of CONFIG_IDEPCI_SHARE_IRQ
config option in 2.6.25 and using AltStatus register unconditionally when
available (kernel.org bugs #11659 and #10216).

[ Moreover for CONFIG_IDEPCI_SHARE_IRQ=y (which is what most people
  and distributions use) it never worked correctly. ]

Thanks to Remy LABENE and Lars Winterfeld for help with debugging the problem.

09a81269c7 i82875p_edac: fix module remove
Fix module removal bugs of i82875p_edac.  Also i82975x_edac code seems to
have the same module removal bugs as in i82875p_edac.

The problems were:

1. In module removal i82875p_remove_one() is never called.

   Variable i82875p_registered is newer changed from 1, which
   guarantees i82875p_remove_one() is not called (and even if it were
   called, it would be called in wrong order).

   As a result, the edac_mc workque is not stopped and keeps probing.
   If kernel debugging options are not enabled, user may not notice
   anything going wrong.

   if debugging options are enabled and I do "rmmod i82875p_edac", I
   get:

      edac debug: edac_pci_workq_function() checking
      BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at f882d16f
      ...
      call trace:

       [<c02367ce>] ? kthread+0x0/0x61
       [<c0204587>] ? kernel_thread_helper+0x7/0x10

   Fix for this is to get rid of needles variable i82875p_registered
   altogether and run i82875p_remove_one() *before*
   pci_unregister_driver().

2. edac_mc_del_mc() uses mci after freeing mci

   edac_mc_del_mc() calls calls edac_remove_sysfs_mci_device().  The
   kobject refcount of mci drops to 0 and mci is freed.  After this
   mci is accessed via debug print and i82875p_remove_one() still
   uses mci->pvt and tries to free mci again with edac_mc_free().

   The fix for this is add kobject_get(&mci->edac_mci_kobj) after
   edac_mc_alloc(). Then the mci is still available after returning
   from edac_mc_del_mc() with refcount 1, and mci->pvt is still
   available. When i82875p_remove_one() finally calls edac_mc_free(),
   this will cause kobject_put() and mci is released properly.

307d114441 i82875p_edac: fix overflow device resource setup
When I do "modprobe i82875p_edac" on my Asus P4C800 MB on kernels 2.6.26
or later, the module load fails due to BAR 0 collision.  On 2.6.25 the
module loads just fine.

The overflow device on the MB seems to be hidden and its resources are not
allocated at normal PCI bus init.  Log shows the missing resource problem:

  EDAC DEBUG: i82875p_probe1()
  PCI: 0000:00:06.0 reg 10 32bit mmio: [fecf0000, fecf0fff]
  pci 0000:00:06.0: device not available because of BAR 0
[0xfecf0000-0xfecf0fff] collisions
  EDAC i82875p: i82875p_setup_overfl_dev(): Failed to enable overflow
device

The patch below fixes this by calling pci_bus_assign_resources() after
the overflow device is revealed and added to the bus. With this patch
I am again able to load and use the module.

bca404afdc fbdev: fix FB console blanking
The commit aef7db4bd5 fixed the problem with
recursive locking in fb blanking code if blank is caused by user setting
the /sys/class/graphics/fb*/blank.  However this broke the fbcon timeout
blanking.

If you use a driver that defines ->fb_blank operation and at the same time
that driver relies on other driver (e.g.  backlight or lcd class) to blank
the screen, when the fbcon times out and tries to blank the fb, it will
call only fb driver blanker and won't notify the other driver.  Thus FB
output is disabled, but the screen isn't blanked.

Restore fbcon blanking and at the same time apply the proper fix for the
above problem: if fbcon_blank is called with FBINFO_FLAG_USEREVENT, we are
already called through notification from fb_blank, thus we don't have to
blank the fb again.
