2007-06-03qla3xxx: device doesnt do hardware checksumming.Stephen Hemminger
Reading the code for ql_hw_csum_setup(), it is obvious that this driver is broken for IPV6. The driver sets the NETIF_F_HW_SUM flag, but the code for checksum setup only deals with IPV4. Compile tested only, no hardware available. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
2007-06-02[POWERPC] Fix zImage.coff generation for 32-bit pmacMilton Miller
Commit 9da82a6dee9db4cd5ae7a74ab4f51afb52b6efb9 inadvertently removed the platform override for zImage.coff to be generated with pmaccoff. Rather than add a special makefile rule, change the platform for which the wrapper platform uses the special rules.

2007-06-02[POWERPC] Compare irq numbers with NO_IRQ not IRQ_NONEMichael Ellerman
There is a thinko in the irq code, it uses IRQ_NONE to indicate no irq, whereas it should be using NO_IRQ. IRQ_NONE is returned from irq handlers to say "not handled". As it happens they currently have the same value (0), so this is just for future proof-ness.

2007-06-02[POWERPC] Don't use HOSTCFLAGS in BOOTCFLAGSDavid Gibson
In the bootwrapper code for powerpc, we include HOSTCFLAGS into the BOOTCFLAGS used for building the zImage wrapper code. Since the wrapper code is not host code, this makes no sense. This patch removes the use of HOSTCFLAGS here, instead including directly into BOOTCFLAGS those flags from the normal kernel CFLAGS which also make sense in the bootwrapper code. In particular, this makes the bootwrapper use -msoft-float, preventing the compiler from generating floating point instructions. Previously, under some circumstances the compiler could generate floating point instructions in the bootwrapper which would cause exceptions on embedded CPUS which don't have floating point support.

2007-06-02[POWERPC] Fix possible access to free pagesBenjamin Herrenschmidt
I think we have a subtle race on ppc64 with the tlb batching. The common code expects tlb_flush() to actually flush any pending TLB batch. It does that because it delays all page freeing until after tlb_flush() is called, in order to ensure no stale reference to those pages exist in any TLB, thus causing potential access to the freed pages. However, our tlb_flush only triggers the RCU for freeing page table pages, it does not currently trigger a flush of a pending TLB/hash batch, which is, I think, an error. This fixes it.

2007-06-02[POWERPC] Fix compiler/assembler flags for Ebony platform boot filesDavid Gibson
The recent addition of assembler flags for 44x.c and ebony.c in the bootwrapper to make them compile on certain toolchains was not correct and could break other platforms. This patch switches to using a compiler flag instead, which implies the appropriate assembler flag, and also stops the compiler itself generating instructions which are invalid for the platform in question.

2007-06-02[POWERPC] Fix ppc32 single-stepping out of syscallsBenjamin Herrenschmidt
The ppc32 kernel didn't properly set/clear the TIF_SINGLESTEP flag, causing return from syscalls to not SIGTRAP, thus executing one more instruction before stopping again. This fixes it. The ptrace code is a bit of a mess, and is overdue for at least a -proper- 32/64 bits split and possibly more cleanups but this minimum fix should be ok for 2.6.22 Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

2007-06-01[SCSI] aacraid: fix shutdown handler to also disable interrupts.Salyzyn, Mark
Moves quiesce, thread and interrupt shutdown into aacraid drivers' .shutdown handler. This fix to the aac_shutdown handler will remove the superfluous reset of the adapter during a (clean) kexec. This fix may mitigate the active investigation 'kexec and aacraid broken' but it is unlikely to affect the root cause (issue likely present in both kexec and kdump). This patch reduces the chance the problem will occur with a kexec. The fix for root cause is currently expected to be the minimum value check to the aacraid.startup_timeout driver variable after an adapter reset within aacraid_commit_reset.patch submitted on 05/22/2007 and awaiting testing by Yinghai to confirm.

2007-06-01ALPHA: support graphics on non-zero PCI domainsJay Estabrook
This code replaces earlier and incomplete handling of graphics on non-zero PCI domains (aka hoses or peer PCI buses). An option (CONFIG_VGA_HOSE) is set TRUE if configuring a GENERIC kernel, or a kernel for MARVEL, TITAN, or TSUNAMI machines, as these are the machines whose SRM consoles are capable of configuring and handling graphics options on non-zero hoses. All other machines have the option set FALSE. A routine, "find_console_vga_hose()", is used to find the graphics device which the machine's firmware believes is the console device, and it sets a global (pci_vga_hose) for later use in managing access to the device. This is called in "init_arch" on TITAN and TSUNAMI machines; MARVEL machines use a custom version of this routine because of extra complexity. A routine, "locate_and_init_vga()", is used to find the graphics device and set a global (pci_vga_hose) for later use in managing access to the device, in the case where "find_console_vga_hose" has failed. Various adjustments are made to the ioremap and ioportmap routines for detecting and translating "legacy" VGA register and memory references to the real PCI domain.

2007-06-01atmel_spi dma address bugfixHaavard Skinnemoen
When either rx_buf or tx_buf is not being used, i.e. for plain read- or write operations, the atmel_spi uses a fixed-size DMA buffer instead. If the transfer is longer than the size of this buffer, it is split into multiple DMA transfers. When the transfer is split like this, the atmel_spi driver ends up using the same DMA address again and again even for the buffer that came from the user, which is of course wrong. Fix this by adding the number of bytes already transferred to the DMA address so that the data ends up in the right place. Thanks to Wu Xuan for discovering this bug.

2007-06-01fbdev: Move declaration of fb_class to <linux/fb.h>Geert Uytterhoeven
Move the forward declaration of fb_class from drivers/video/console/fbcon.h to <linux/fb.h>, together with the other forward declarations related to drivers/video/fbmem.c. This kills the following sparse warning: | drivers/video/fbmem.c:1363:14: warning: symbol 'fb_class' was not declared. Should it be static?
