2007-08-13[NET]: Share correct feature code between bridging and bondingHerbert Xu
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8797 shows that the bonding driver may produce bogus combinations of the checksum flags and SG/TSO. For example, if you bond devices with NETIF_F_HW_CSUM and NETIF_F_IP_CSUM you'll end up with a bonding device that has neither flag set. If both have TSO then this produces an illegal combination. The bridge device on the other hand has the correct code to deal with this. In fact, the same code can be used for both. So this patch moves that logic into net/core/dev.c and uses it for both bonding and bridging. In the process I've made small adjustments such as only setting GSO_ROBUST if at least one constituent device supports it.

2007-08-13[DCCP]: fix memory leak and clean up style - dccp_feat_empty_confirm()Jesper Juhl
There's a memory leak in net/dccp/feat.c::dccp_feat_empty_confirm(). If we hit the 'default:' case of the 'switch' statement, then we return without freeing 'opt', thus leaking 'struct dccp_opt_pend' bytes. The leak is fixed easily enough by adding a kfree(opt); before the return statement. The patch also changes the layout of the 'switch' to be more in line with CodingStyle.

2007-08-13[IPCONFIG]: ip_auto_config fixJoakim Tjernlund
The following commandline: root=/dev/mtdblock6 rw rootfstype=jffs2 ip=192.168.1.10:::255.255.255.0:localhost.localdomain:eth1:off console=ttyS0,115200 makes ip_auto_config fall back to DHCP and complain "IP-Config: Incomplete network configuration information." depending on if CONFIG_IP_PNP_DHCP is set or not. The only way I can make ip_auto_config accept my IP config is to add an entry for the server IP: ip=192.168.1.10:192.168.1.15::255.255.255.0:localhost.localdomain:eth1:off I think this is a bug since I am not using a NFS root FS. The following patch fixes the above problem. From: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Davem said (in February!): Well, first of all the change in question is not in 2.4.x either. I just checked the current 2.4.x GIT tree and the test is exactly: if (ic_myaddr == INADDR_NONE || #ifdef CONFIG_ROOT_NFS (MAJOR(ROOT_DEV) == UNNAMED_MAJOR && root_server_addr == INADDR_NONE && ic_servaddr == INADDR_NONE) || #endif ic_first_dev->next) { which matches 2.6.x I even checked 2.4.x when it was branched for 2.5.x and the test was the same at the point in time too. Looking at the proposed change a bit it appears that it is probably correct, as it's trying to check that ROOT_DEV is nfs root. But if it is correct then the UNNAMED_MAJOR comparison in the same code block should be removed as it becomes superfluous. I'm happy to apply this patch with that modification made.

2007-08-12Do not replace whole memcpy in apply alternativesPetr Vandrovec
apply_alternatives uses memcpy() to apply alternatives. Which has the unfortunate effect that while applying memcpy alternative to memcpy itself it tries to overwrite itself with nops - which causes #UD fault as it overwrites half of an instruction in copy loop, and from this point on only possible outcome is triplefault and reboot. So let's overwrite only first two instructions of memcpy - as long as the main memcpy loop is not in first two bytes it will work fine.

2007-08-12ACPI: thermal: add DMI hooks to handle AOpen's broken Award BIOSLen Brown
Use DMI to: 1. enable polling (BIOS thermal events are broken) 2. disable active trip points (BIOS fan control is broken) 3. disable passive trip point (BIOS hard-codes it too low) The actual temperature reading does work, and with the aid of polling, the critical trip point should work too. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8842 Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
2007-08-12ACPI: thermal: create "thermal.act=" to disable or override active trip pointLen Brown
thermal.act=-1 disables all active trip points in all ACPI thermal zones. thermal.act=C, where C > 0, overrides all lowest temperature active trip points in all thermal zones to C degrees Celsius. Raising this trip-point may allow you to keep your system silent up to a higher temperature. However, it will not allow you to raise the lowest temperature trip point above the next higher trip point (if there is one). Lowering this trip point may kick in the fan sooner. Note that overriding this trip-point will disable any BIOS attempts to implement hysteresis around the lowest temperature trip point. This may result in the fan starting and stopping frequently if temperature frequently crosses C. WARNING: raising trip points above the manufacturer's defaults may cause the system to run at higher temperature and shorten its life. Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
2007-08-12ACPI: thermal: create "thermal.nocrt" to disable critical actionsLen Brown
thermal.nocrt=1 disables actions on _CRT and _HOT ACPI thermal zone trip-points. They will be marked as <disabled> in /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/*/trip_points. There are two cases where this option is used: 1. Debugging a hot system crossing valid trip point. If your system fan is spinning at full speed, be sure that the vent is not clogged with dust. Many laptops have very fine thermal fins that are easily blocked. Check that the processor fan-sink is properly seated, has the proper thermal grease, and is really spinning. Check for fan related options in BIOS SETUP. Sometimes there is a performance vs quiet option. Defaults are generally the most conservative. If your fan is not spinning, yet /proc/acpi/fan/ has files in it, please file a Linux/ACPI bug. WARNING: you risk shortening the lifetime of your hardware if you use this parameter on a hot system. Note that this refers to all system components, including the disk drive. 2. Working around a cool system crossing critical trip point due to erroneous temperature reading. Try again with CONFIG_HWMON=n There is known potential for conflict between the the hwmon sub-system and the ACPI BIOS. If this fixes it, notify lm-sensors@lm-sensors.org and linux-acpi@vger.kernel.org Otherwise, file a Linux/ACPI bug, or notify just linux-acpi@vger.kernel.org. Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
2007-08-12ACPI: thermal: create "thermal.psv=" to override passive trip pointsLen Brown
"thermal.psv=-1" disables passive trip points for all ACPI thermal zones. "thermal.psv=C", where 'C' is degrees Celsius, overrides all existing passive trip points for all ACPI thermal zones. thermal.psv is checked at module load time, and in response to trip-point change events. Note that if the system does not deliver thermal zone temperature change events near the new trip-point, then it will not be noticed. To force your custom trip point to be noticed, you may need to enable polling: eg. thermal.tzp=3000 invokes polling every 5 minutes. Note that once passive thermal throttling is invoked, it has its own internal Thermal Sampling Period (_TSP), that is unrelated to _TZP. WARNING: disabling or raising a thermal trip point may result in increased running temperature and shorter hardware lifetime on some systems. Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
2007-08-12ACPI: thermal: expose "thermal.tzp=" to set global polling frequencyLen Brown
Thermal Zone Polling frequency (_TZP) is an optional ACPI object recommending the rate that the OS should poll the associated thermal zone. If _TZP is 0, no polling should be used. If _TZP is non-zero, then the platform recommends that the OS poll the thermal zone at the specified rate. The minimum period is 30 seconds. The maximum period is 5 minutes. (note _TZP and thermal.tzp units are in deci-seconds, so _TZP = 300 corresponds to 30 seconds) If _TZP is not present, ACPI 3.0b recommends that the thermal zone be polled at an "OS provided default frequency". However, common industry practice is: 1. The BIOS never specifies any _TZP 2. High volume OS's from this century never poll any thermal zones Ie. The OS depends on the platform's ability to provoke thermal events when necessary, and the "OS provided default frequency" is "never":-) There is a proposal that ACPI 4.0 be updated to reflect common industry practice -- ie. no _TZP, no polling. The Linux kernel already follows this practice -- thermal zones are not polled unless _TZP is present and non-zero. But thermal zone polling is useful as a workaround for systems which have ACPI thermal control, but have an issue preventing thermal events. Indeed, some Linux distributions still set a non-zero thermal polling frequency for this reason. But rather than ask the user to write a polling frequency into all the /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/*/polling_frequency files, here we simply document and expose the already existing module parameter to do the same at system level, to simplify debugging those broken platforms. Note that thermal.tzp is a module-load time parameter only. Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
2007-08-12ACPI: thermal: create "thermal.off=1" to disable ACPI thermal supportLen Brown
"thermal.off=1" disables all ACPI thermal support at boot time. CONFIG_ACPI_THERMAL=n can do this at build time. "# rmmod thermal" can do this at run time, as long as thermal is built as a module. WARNING: On some systems, disabling ACPI thermal support will cause the system to run hotter and reduce the lifetime of the hardware. Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
