2006-01-14[ARM] 3103/1: ARM EABI: stack pointer must be 64-bit aligned (part 2)Nicolas Pitre
Patch from Nicolas Pitre We must make sure that assembly code that modifies the stack pointer before calling a C function does it so it remains 64-bit aligned. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@cam.org> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2006-01-14[ARM] 3102/1: ARM EABI: stack pointer must be 64-bit aligned after a CPU ↵Nicolas Pitre
exception Patch from Nicolas Pitre The ARM EABI says that the stack pointer has to be 64-bit aligned for reasons already mentioned in patch #3101 when calling C functions. We therefore must verify and adjust sp accordingly when taking an exception from kernel mode since sp might not necessarily be 64-bit aligned if the exception occurs in the middle of a kernel function. If the exception occurs while in user mode then no sp fixup is needed as long as sizeof(struct pt_regs) as well as any additional syscall data stack space remain multiples of 8.

2006-01-14[ARM] 3101/1: ARM EABI: slab memory must be 64-bit alignedNicolas Pitre
Patch from Nicolas Pitre Although ARM is still using 32-bit pointers, version 5 and later versions of the ARM architecture introduced the ldrd and strd instructions to move 64-bit data which must be 64-bit aligned in memory, and the EABI includes new constraints on structure data alignment to allow for the compiler to use those instructions. This means that any slab allocation must start on a 64-bit boundary which is not equivalent to BYTES_PER_WORD, especially on those architecture versions that implements the ldrd/strd instructions. Overriding the default alignment disables some slab debug features. If those debug features are really needed then the kernel will have to be compiled for version 4 of the ARM architecture.

2006-01-13[ARM] 3257/1: ixp2000: map in scratch and sramLennert Buytenhek
Patch from Lennert Buytenhek For the ixp2000 netdev driver, we need to map in a chunk of SRAM (to store the transmit and receive descriptors) and the scratch get/put area (so that we can use the scratchpad rings in the cpu for managing the descriptors.) These are the final two mappings needed for the netdev driver and the last missing piece for the driver in mainline to work.

2006-01-12[PATCH] via-velocity: use NETIF_F_IP_CSUM (hardware only support IPv4)John W. Linville
At least some versions of the via-velocity hardware only support checksumming IPv4 frames in hardware. However, the driver is currently setting the NETIF_F_HW_CSUM flag, which indicates support for more than just IPv4. This results in errors when trying to use IPv6 over via-velocity hardware.

2006-01-12[PATCH] bonding: UPDATED hash-table corruption in bond_alb.cJay Vosburgh
I believe I see the race Michael refers to (tlb_choose_channel may set head, which tlb_init_slave clears), although I was not able to reproduce it. I have updated his patch for the current netdev-2.6.git tree and added a version update. His original comment follows: Our systems have been crashing during testing of PCI HotPlug support in the various networking components. We've faulted in the bonding driver due to a bug in bond_alb.c:tlb_clear_slave() In that routine, the last modification to the TLB hash table is made without protection of the lock, allowing a race that can lead tlb_choose_channel() to select an invalid table element. -J Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
2006-01-12[PATCH] wireless/atmel: add IWENCODEEXT, IWAUTH, and association event supportDan Williams
This patch allows the Atmel driver to work correctly with wpa_supplicant and other programs that require some conformance with WEXT-18. It should not affect current behavior of the driver. The patch does four things: 1) Implements SIOCSIWENCODEEXT, SIOCGIWENCODEEXT, SIOCSIWAUTH, and SIOCGIWAUTH calls for unencrypted and WEP operation 2) Accepts zero-filled addresses for SIOCSIWAP, which are legal and should turn off any previous forced WAP address 3) Sends association and de-association events to userspace at most of the appropriate times 4) Fixes erroneous order of CIPHER_SUITE_WEP_* arguments in one location which are actually unused anyway Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dcbw@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>

2006-01-12[PATCH] corruption during e100 MDI register accessODonnell, Michael
We have identified two related bugs in the e100 driver. Both bugs are related to manipulation of the MDI control register. The first problem is that the Ready bit is being ignored when writing to the Control register; we noticed this because the Linux bonding driver would occasionally come to the spurious conclusion that the link was down when querying Link State. It turned out that by failing to wait for a previous command to complete it was selecting what was essentially a random register in the MDI register set. When we added code that waits for the Ready bit (as shown in the patch file below) all such problems ceased. The second problem is that, although access to the MDI registers involves multiple steps which must not be intermixed, nothing was defending against two or more threads attempting simultaneous access. The most obvious situation where such interference could occur involves the watchdog versus ioctl paths, but there are probably others, so we recommend the locking shown in our patch file.

2006-01-12[ARM] Allow r2 to be passed through the decompressor to the kernelRussell King
This is part of a patch from Marc Singer to allow r2 to be passed to the kernel. Marc's original comments follow: This revised R2 (atags pointer) patch incorporates comments from Nico Pitre and Ben Dooks. It modifies the head.S files such that the R2 value set by the bootloader is conveyed to the kernel startup code. The kernel head.S heuristically validates the pointer. It will set R2 to zero if it believes the pointer is invalid. Presently, it requires that the ATAGS list reside in the first 16KiB of physical RAM. Relaxing this contraint may be both desirable as well as tricky. Signed-off-by: Marc Singer <elf@buici.com> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
