2008-04-16libertas: un-garbage various command structsHolger Schurig
Some command structs contain reserved or unused fields, which the driver send uninitialized down to the card. Signed-off-by: Holger Schurig <hs4233@mail.mn-solutions.de> Acked-by: Dan Williams <dcbw@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2008-04-16libertas: convert libertas driver to use an event/cmdresp queueHolger Schurig
This patch (co-developed by Dan Williams and Holger Schurig) uses a kfifo object for events and a swapping buffer scheme for the command response to preserve the zero-copy semantics of the CF driver and keep memory usage low. The main thread should only ever touch the buffer indexed by priv->resp_idx, while the interface code is free to write to the second buffer, then swap priv->resp_idx under the driver spinlock. The firmware specs only permit one in-flight command, so there will only ever be one command response to process at a time.

2008-04-16rt2x00: Only free skb when beacon_update failsIvo van Doorn
In rt2x00lib_intf_scheduled_iter() we use the hw->beacon_update() callback function. This means that it should behave similarly as mac80211 when that uses the function. This means that the skb should only be freed when beacon_update() has failed, otherwise the driver is the owner and is responsible for freeing the buffer.

2008-04-16[TUN]: Allow to register tun devices in namespace.Pavel Emelyanov
This is basically means that a net is set for a new device, but actually also involves two more steps: 1. mark the tun device as "local", i.e. do not allow for it to move across namespaces. This is done so, since tun device is most often associated to some file (and thus to some process) and moving the device alone is not valid while keeping the file and the process outside. The need in ability to move a detached persistent device is to be investigated later. 2. get the tun device's net when tun becomes attached and put one when it becomes detached. This is needed to handle the case when a task owning the tun dies, but a files lives for some more time - in this case we must not allow for net to be freed, since its exit hook will spoil that file's private data by unregistering the tun from under tun_chr_close.

2008-04-16[TUN]: Make the tun_dev_list per-net.Pavel Emelyanov
Remove the static tun_dev_list and replace its occurrences in driver with per-net one. It is used in two places - in tun_set_iff and tun_cleanup. In the first case it's legal to use current net_ns. In the cleanup call - move the loop, that unregisters all devices in net exit hook. Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-04-16[TUN]: Introduce the tun_net structure and init/exit net ops.Pavel Emelyanov
This is the first step in making tuntap devices work in net namespaces. The structure mentioned is pointed by generic net pointer with tun_net_id id, and tun driver fills one on its load. It will contain only the tun devices list. So declare this structure and introduce net init and exit hooks. Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-04-12tg3: fix MMIO for PPC 44x platformsSergei Shtylyov
The driver stores the PCI resource addresses into 'unsigned long' variable before calling ioremap_nocache() on them. This warrants kernel oops when the registers are accessed on PPC 44x platforms which (being 32-bit) have PCI memory space mapped beyond 4 GB. The arch/ppc/ kernel has a fixup in ioremap() that creates an illusion that the PCI memory resource is mapped below 4 GB, but arch/powerpc/ code got rid of this trick, having instead CONFIG_RESOURCES_64BIT enabled.

2008-04-12Mark generic HDLC + PPP as broken.Krzysztof Halasa
PPP support in generic HDLC in Linux 2.6.25 is broken and will cause a kernel panic when a device configured in PPP mode is activated. It will be replaced by new PPP implementation after Linux 2.6.25 is released. This affects only PPP support in generic HDLC (mostly Hitachi SCA and SCA-II based drivers, wanxl, and few others). Standalone syncppp and async PPP support are not affected. Signed-off-by: Krzysztof Halasa <khc@pm.waw.pl> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>

2008-04-12forcedeth: mac address fixAyaz Abdulla
This critical patch fixes a mac address issue recently introduced. If the device's mac address was in correct order and the flag NVREG_TRANSMITPOLL_MAC_ADDR_REV was set, during nv_remove the flag would get cleared. During next load, the mac address would get reversed because the flag is missing. As it has been indicated previously, the flag is cleared across a low power transition. Therefore, the driver should set the mac address back into the reversed order when clearing the flag. Also, the driver should set back the flag after a low power transition to protect against kexec command calling nv_probe a second time.

2008-04-08[NET]: Undo code bloat in hot paths due to print_mac().David S. Miller
If print_mac() is used inside of a pr_debug() the compiler can't see that the call is redundant so still performs it even of pr_debug() ends up being a nop. So don't use print_mac() in such cases in hot code paths, use MAC_FMT et al. instead. As noted by Joe Perches, pr_debug() could be modified to handle this better, but that is a change to an interface used by the entire kernel and thus needs to be validated carefully.
