2010-01-08netxen: fix set mac addrAmit Kumar Salecha
o If tx and rx resources are not available, during set mac request. Then this request wont be passed to firmware and it will be added to driver mac list and will never make it to firmware.

2010-01-07TI DaVinci EMAC: Handle emac module clock correctly.Sriram
In the driver probe function the emac module clock needs to be enabled before calling register_netdev(). As soon as the device is registered the driver get_stats function can be invoked by the core - the module clock must be switched on to be able to read from stats registers. Also explicitly call matching clk_disable for failure conditions in probe function. Signed-off-by: Sriramakrishnan <srk@ti.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2010-01-07dmfe/tulip: Let dmfe handle DM910x except for SPARC on-board chipsBen Hutchings
The Davicom DM9100 and DM9102 chips are used on the motherboards of some SPARC systems (supported by the tulip driver) and also in PCI expansion cards (supported by the dmfe driver). There is no difference in the PCI device ids for the two different configurations, so these drivers both claim the device ids. However, it is possible to distinguish the two configurations by the presence of Open Firmware properties for them, so we do that.

2010-01-07mv643xx_eth: don't include cache padding in rx desc buffer sizeSaeed Bishara
If NET_SKB_PAD is not a multiple of the cache line size, mv643xx_eth allocates a couple of extra bytes at the start of each receive buffer to make the data payload end up on a cache line boundary. These extra bytes are skb_reserve()'d before DMA mapping, so they should not be included in the DMA map byte count (as the mapping is done starting at skb->data), nor should they be included in the receive descriptor buffer size field, or the hardware can end up DMAing beyond the end of the buffer, which can happen if someone sends us a larger-than-MTU sized packet. This problem was introduced in commit 7fd96ce47ff ("mv643xx_eth: rework receive skb cache alignment", May 6 2009), but hasn't appeared to be problematic so far, probably as the main users of mv643xx_eth all have NET_SKB_PAD == L1_CACHE_BYTES.

2010-01-06ip: fix mc_loop checks for tunnels with multicast outer addressesOctavian Purdila
When we have L3 tunnels with different inner/outer families (i.e. IPV4/IPV6) which use a multicast address as the outer tunnel destination address, multicast packets will be loopbacked back to the sending socket even if IP*_MULTICAST_LOOP is set to disabled. The mc_loop flag is present in the family specific part of the socket (e.g. the IPv4 or IPv4 specific part). setsockopt sets the inner family mc_loop flag. When the packet is pushed through the L3 tunnel it will eventually be processed by the outer family which if different will check the flag in a different part of the socket then it was set.

2010-01-03via-velocity: Give RX descriptors to the NIC later on open or MTU changeBen Hutchings
velocity_open() calls velocity_give_many_rx_descs(), which gives RX descriptors to the NIC, before installing an interrupt handler or calling velocity_init_registers(). I think this is very unsafe and it appears to explain the bug report <http://bugs.debian.org/508527>. On MTU change, velocity_give_many_rx_descs() is again called before velocity_init_registers(). I'm not sure whether this is unsafe but it does look wrong. Therefore, move the calls to velocity_give_many_rx_descs() after request_irq() and velocity_init_registers().

On suspend: - PM core starts suspending devices, ucc_geth_suspend gets called; - ucc_geth calls phy_stop() on suspend. Note that phy_stop() is mostly asynchronous so it doesn't block ucc_geth's suspend routine, it just sets PHY_HALTED state and disables PHY's interrupts; - Suddenly the state machine gets scheduled, it grabs the phydev->lock mutex and tries to process the PHY_HALTED state, so it calls phydev->adjust_link(phydev->attached_dev). In ucc_geth case adjust_link() calls msleep(), which reschedules the code flow back to PM core, which now finishes suspend and so we end up sleeping with phydev->lock mutex held. On resume: - PM core starts resuming devices (notice that nobody rescheduled the state machine yet, so the mutex is still held), the core calls ucc_geth's resume routine; - ucc_geth_resume restarts the PHY with phy_stop()/phy_start() sequence, and the phy_*() calls are trying to grab the phydev->lock mutex. Here comes the deadlock. This patch fixes the issue by stopping the state machine on suspend and starting it again on resume.

2009-12-28mac80211: fix propagation of failed hardware reconfigurationsLuis R. Rodriguez
mac80211 does not propagate failed hardware reconfiguration requests. For suspend and resume this is important due to all the possible issues that can come out of the suspend <-> resume cycle. Not propagating the error means cfg80211 will assume the resume for the device went through fine and mac80211 will continue on trying to poke at the hardware, enable timers, queue work, and so on for a device which is completley unfunctional. The least we can do is to propagate device start issues and warn when this occurs upon resume. A side effect of this patch is we also now propagate the start errors upon harware reconfigurations (non-suspend), but this should also be desirable anyway, there is not point in continuing to reconfigure a device if mac80211 was unable to start the device.

2009-12-28mac80211: fix race with suspend and dynamic_ps_disable_workLuis R. Rodriguez
When mac80211 suspends it calls a driver's suspend callback as a last step and after that the driver assumes no calls will be made to it until we resume and its start callback is kicked. If such calls are made, however, suspend can end up throwing hardware in an unexpected state and making the device unusable upon resume. Fix this by preventing mac80211 to schedule dynamic_ps_disable_work by checking for when mac80211 starts to suspend and starts quiescing. Frames should be allowed to go through though as that is part of the quiescing steps and we do not flush the mac80211 workqueue since it was already done towards the beginning of suspend cycle. The other mac80211 issue will be hanled in the next patch. For further details see refer to the thread: http://marc.info/?t=126144866100001&r=1&w=2 Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Luis R.

This could possibly lead to throughput issues due to slow rate control adaption or missed retransmissions of failed A-MPDU frames. This patch adds a mask for all possible error conditions and uses it in the xmit ok check.

2009-12-28ath9k: wake hardware during AMPDU TX actionsLuis R. Rodriguez
AMDPDU actions poke hardware for TX operation, as such we want to turn hardware on for these actions. AMDPU RX operations do not require hardware on as nothing is done in hardware for those actions. Without this we cannot guarantee hardware has been programmed correctly for each AMPDU TX action. Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Luis R.
