2007-10-11[SKY2]: ethtool register reserved area blackoutStephen Hemminger
Make sure and not dump reserved areas of device space. Touching some of these causes machine check exceptions on boards like D-Link DGE-550SX. Coding note, used a complex switch statement rather than bitmap because it is easier to relate the block values to the documentation rather than looking at a encoded bitmask.

2007-10-12[POWERPC] Add legacy serial support for OPB with flattened device treeValentine Barshak
Currently find_legacy_serial_ports() can find no serial ports on the OPB with flattened device tree. Thus no legacy boot console can be initialized. Just the early udbg console works, which is initialized with udbg_init_44x_as1 on the UART's physical address specified in kernel config. This happens because we look for ns16750 serial devices only and expect opb node to have a device type property. This patch makes it look for ns16550-compatible devices and use of_device_is_compatible() for opb in case device type is not specified.

2007-10-12[POWERPC] Use 1TB segmentsPaul Mackerras
This makes the kernel use 1TB segments for all kernel mappings and for user addresses of 1TB and above, on machines which support them (currently POWER5+, POWER6 and PA6T). We detect that the machine supports 1TB segments by looking at the ibm,processor-segment-sizes property in the device tree. We don't currently use 1TB segments for user addresses < 1T, since that would effectively prevent 32-bit processes from using huge pages unless we also had a way to revert to using 256MB segments. That would be possible but would involve extra complications (such as keeping track of which segment size was used when HPTEs were inserted) and is not addressed here. Parts of this patch were originally written by Ben Herrenschmidt. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

2007-10-11[NET]: Fix NAPI completion handling in some drivers.David S. Miller
In order for the list handling in net_rx_action() to be correct, drivers must follow certain rules as stated by this comment in net_rx_action(): /* Drivers must not modify the NAPI state if they * consume the entire weight. In such cases this code * still "owns" the NAPI instance and therefore can * move the instance around on the list at-will. */ A few drivers do not do this because they mix the budget checks with reading hardware state, resulting in crashes like the one reported by takano@axe-inc.co.jp.

2007-10-11[TCP]: Limit processing lost_retrans loop to work-to-do casesIlpo Järvinen

2007-10-11[TCP]: Fix lost_retrans loop vs fastpath problemsIlpo Järvinen
Detection implemented with lost_retrans must work also when fastpath is taken, yet most of the queue is skipped including (very likely) those retransmitted skb's we're interested in. This problem appeared when the hints got added, which removed a need to always walk over the whole write queue head. Therefore decicion for the lost_retrans worker loop entry must be separated from the sacktag processing more than it was necessary before. It turns out to be problematic to optimize the worker loop very heavily because ack_seqs of skb may have a number of discontinuity points. Maybe similar approach as currently is implemented could be attempted but that's becoming more and more complex because the trend is towards less skb walking in sacktag marker. Trying a simple work until all rexmitted skbs heve been processed approach. Maybe after(highest_sack_end_seq, tp->high_seq) checking is not sufficiently accurate and causes entry too often in no-work-to-do cases. Since that's not known, I've separated solution to that from this patch. Noticed because of report against a related problem from TAKANO Ryousei <takano@axe-inc.co.jp>. He also provided a patch to that part of the problem. This patch includes solution to it (though this patch has to use somewhat different placement). TAKANO's description and patch is available here: http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=119149311913288&w=2 ...In short, TAKANO's problem is that end_seq the loop is using not necessarily the largest SACK block's end_seq because the current ACK may still have higher SACK blocks which are later by the loop.

2007-10-11[TCP]: Fix mark_head_lost to ignore R-bit when trying to mark LIlpo Järvinen
This condition (plain R) can arise at least in recovery that is triggered after tcp_undo_loss. There isn't any reason why they should not be marked as lost, not marking makes in_flight estimator to return too large values.

2007-10-11[TCP]: Add bytes_acked (ABC) clearing to FRTO tooIlpo Järvinen
I was reading tcp_enter_loss while looking for Cedric's bug and noticed bytes_acked adjustment is missing from FRTO side. Since bytes_acked will only be used in tcp_cong_avoid, I think it's safe to assume RTO would be spurious. During FRTO cwnd will be not controlled by tcp_cong_avoid and if FRTO calls for conventional recovery, cwnd is adjusted and the result of wrong assumption is cleared from bytes_acked. If RTO was in fact spurious, we did normal ABC already and can continue without any additional adjustments. Signed-off-by: Ilpo Järvinen <ilpo.jarvinen@helsinki.fi> Signed-off-by: David S.

2007-10-11[MIPS] R1: Fix hazard barriers to make kernels work on R2 also.Ralf Baechle
Tested with Malta; inflates malta_defconfig by 3932 bytes. Ideally there should be additional configuration to allow getting rid of this overhead but that would be too much complexity at this stage of the release cycle. Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>
2007-10-11[MIPS] VPE: reimplement ELF loader.Ralf Baechle
Loading ELF binaries based on the section table is totally wrong. This still leaves the other fat bug of referencing symbols in an executable unfixed, so people better don't run strip on their binaries ... As added bonus the new loader is also 23 lines shorter.
