  • Previously inet devices were only constructed when addresses are added
    (or rarely in ipmr). Therefore the default config values they get are
    the ones at the time of these operations.

    Now that we're creating inet devices earlier, this changes the
    behaviour of default config values in an incompatible way (see bug
    #8519).

    This patch creates a compromise by setting the default values at the
    same point as before but only for those that have not been explicitly
    set by the user since the inet device's creation.

  • Previously once inetdev_init has been called on a device any changes
    made to ipv4_devconf_dflt would have no effect on that device's
    configuration.

    This creates a problem since we have moved the point where
    inetdev_init is called from when an address is added to where the
    device is registered.

    This patch is the first half of a set that tries to mimic the old
    behaviour while still calling inetdev_init.

    It propagates any changes to ipv4_devconf_dflt to those devices that
    have not had the corresponding attribute set.

    The next patch will forcibly set all values at the point where
    inetdev_init was previously called.

  • This patch converts the ipv4_devconf config members (everything except
    sysctl) to an array. This allows easier manipulation which will be
    needed later on to provide better management of default config values.

  • When I made the inetdev_init call work on all devices I incorrectly
    left in the panic call as well. It is obviously undesirable to
    panic on an allocation failure for a normal network device. This
    patch moves the panic call under the loopback if clause.

  • A time_wait socket inherits sk_bound_dev_if from the original socket,
    but it is not used when sending ACK packets using ip_send_reply.

    Fix by passing the oif to ip_send_reply in struct ip_reply_arg and
    use it for output routing.

  • The statistics block DMA on 5708 can be messed up occasionally on the
    average of about once per hour. If the user is reading the counters
    within one second after the corruption, the counters will be all
    messed up. One second later, the counters will be ok again until the
    next corruption occurs.

    The workaround is to disable the periodic statistics DMA. Instead,
    we manually trigger the DMA once a second in bnx2_timer(). This
    manual trigger of the DMA avoids the problem.

    As a consequence, we can only allow 0 or 1 second settings for
    ethtool -C statistics block.

    Thanks to Jean-Daniel Pauget and
    CaT for reporting this rare problem.

  • For correctness, we need to wait for the MEM_INIT bit to be cleared
    in the BNX2_CTX_COMMAND register before proceeding.

    by Jeff Garzik.]

  • There's a bug in the driver that only initializes half of the context
    memory on the 5708. Surprisingly, this works most of the time except
    for some occasional netdev watchdogs when sending a lot of 64-byte
    packets. The fix is to add the missing code to initialize the 2nd
    halves of all context memory.

  • This patch should get a few birds. It prevents sigaction calls from
    clearing TIF_SIGPENDING in other threads, which could leak -ERESTART*.
    And It fixes ptrace_stop not to clear it, which done at the syscall exit
    stop could leak -ERESTART*. It probably removes the harm from signalfd,
    at least assuming it never calls dequeue_signal on kernel threads that
    might have used block_all_signals.

  • The COFF zImage (for booting oldworld powermacs) wasn't being built
    correctly because the procedure descriptor in crt0.S for the zImage
    entry point wasn't declared as .globl, and therefore wasn't getting
    pulled in from wrapper.a by the linker. This adds the necessary
    .globl statement.

  • The error path in spufs_fill_dir() is broken. If d_alloc_name() or
    spufs_new_file() fails, spufs_prune_dir() is getting called. At this time
    dir->inode is not set and a NULL pointer is dereferenced by mutex_lock().
    This bugfix replaces spufs_prune_dir() with a shorter version that does
    not touch dir->inode but simply removes all children.

  • We had a problem on a system with only dynamically allocated
    PCI buses (using of_pci_phb_driver) in combination with libata.
    This setup ended up having no "primary" phb, which means
    that pci_io_base never got initialized and all IO port
    numbers are 64 bit numbers, which is larger than the
    PIO_MASK limit.

  • Fix the race between checking for contexts on the runqueue and actually
    waking them in spu_deactive and spu_yield.

    The guts of spu_reschedule are split into a new helper called
    grab_runnable_context which shows if there is a runnable thread below
    a specified priority and if yes removes if from the runqueue and uses
    it. This function is used by the new __spu_deactivate hepler shared
    by preemption and spu_yield to grab a new context before deactivating
    a specified priority and if yes removes if from the runqueue and uses
    it. This function is used by the new __spu_deactivate hepler shared
    by preemption and spu_yield to grab a new context before deactivating
    the old one.

  • Previously, closing a SPE gang that still has contexts would trigger
    a WARN_ON, and leak the allocated gang.

    This change fixes the problem by using the gang's reference counts to
    destroy the gang instead. The gangs will persist until their last
    reference (be it context or open file handle) is gone.

    Also, avoid using statements with side-effects in a WARN_ON().
