2006-12-17[BNX2]: Fix panic in bnx2_tx_int().Michael Chan
There was an off-by-one bug in bnx2_tx_avail(). If the tx ring is completely full, the producer and consumer indices may be apart by 256 even though the ring size is only 255. One entry in the ring is unused and must be properly accounted for when calculating the number of available entries. The bug caused the tx ring entries to be reused by mistake, overwriting active entries, and ultimately causing it to crash. This bug rarely occurs because the tx ring is rarely completely full. We always stop when there is less than MAX_SKB_FRAGS entries available in the ring.

If you are implementing your own TCGETS function before then your driver was broken already and its about to get a whole lot more painful for you so please fix it 8) Also fill in c_ispeed/ospeed on init for most devices, although the current code will do this for you anyway but I'd like eventually to lose that extra paranoia [akpm@osdl.org: bluetooth fix] [mp3@de.ibm.com: sclp fix] [mp3@de.ibm.com: warning fix for tty3270] [hugh@veritas.com: fix tty_ioctl powerpc build] [jdike@addtoit.com: uml: fix ->set_termios declaration] Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Peschke <mp3@de.ibm.com> Acked-by: Peter Oberparleiter <oberpar@de.ibm.com> Cc: Cornelia Huck <cornelia.huck@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Dike <jdike@addtoit.com> Cc: Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso <blaisorblade@yahoo.it> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2006-12-08[PATCH] tty: preparatory structures for termios revampAlan Cox
In order to sort out our struct termios and add proper speed control we need to separate the kernel and user termios structures. Glibc is fine but the other libraries rely on the kernel exported struct termios and we need to extend this without breaking the ABI/API To do so we add a struct ktermios which is the kernel view of a termios structure and overlaps the struct termios with extra fields on the end for now. (That limitation will go away in later patches). Some platforms (eg alpha) planned ahead and thus use the same struct for both, others did not. This just adds the structures but does not use them, it seems a sensible splitting point for bisect if there are compile failures (not that I expect them) Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2006-12-07Add "run_scheduled_work()" workqueue functionLinus Torvalds
This allows workqueue users to run just their own pending work, rather than wait for the whole workqueue to finish running. This solves the deadlock with networking libphy that was due to other workqueue entries possibly needing a lock that was held by the routine that wanted to flush its own work. It's not wonderful: if you absolutely need to synchronize with the work function having been executed, any user strictly speaking should have its own completion tracking logic, since when we run things explicitly by hand, the generic workqueue layer can no longer help us synchronize. Also, this is strictly only usable for work that has been scheduled without any delayed timers. You can not mix the new interface with schedule_delayed_work(). But it's better than what we had currently. Acked-by: Maciej W. Rozycki <macro@linux-mips.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2006-12-07[PATCH] Pass struct dev pointer to dma_cache_sync()Ralf Baechle
Pass struct dev pointer to dma_cache_sync() dma_cache_sync() is ill-designed in that it does not have a struct device pointer argument which makes proper support for systems that consist of a mix of coherent and non-coherent DMA devices hard. Change dma_cache_sync to take a struct device pointer as first argument and fix all its callers to pass it.
