2008-08-11Revert "fbcon: bgcolor fix"Linus Torvalds
This reverts commit 2d04a4a72d7e1519b4838f24bdd4b5d0f3f426dc, which made it impossible to make the softcursor use the highlight colors. Yes, the fourth bit should be "blinking", but since we cannot reasonably blink in fbcon, highlighting it with a bright background is preferable.

2008-08-09uninline atl1e_setup_mac_ctrl()Adrian Bunk
There doesn't seem to be a compelling reason why atl1e_setup_mac_ctrl() is marked as "inline": It's not used in any place where speed would matter much, and as long as it has only one caller non-ancient gcc versions anyway inline it automatically. This patch fixes the following compile error with gcc 3.4: CC drivers/net/atl1e/atl1e_main.o atl1e_main.c: In function `atl1e_check_link': atl1e_main.c:50: sorry, unimplemented: inlining failed in call to atl1e_main.c:196: sorry, unimplemented: called from here Reported-by: Adrian Bunk <bunk@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Adrian Bunk <bunk@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2008-08-07IB/mad: Test ib_create_send_mad() return with IS_ERR(), not == NULLJulien Brunel
In case of error, the function ib_create_send_mad() returns an ERR pointer, but never returns a NULL pointer. So testing the return value for error should be done with IS_ERR, not by comparing with NULL. A simplified version of the semantic patch that makes this change is as follows: (http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/) // <smpl> @correct_null_test@ expression x,E; statement S1, S2; @@ x = ib_create_send_mad(...) <... when != x = E if ( ( - x@p2 != NULL + !

AFAIK, no such hardware exists for the p54, thus it must be done in software. With this patch, a connection qith p54usb is stable, whereas the interface went off-line in 2-3 hours without this change. Note that this code will have to be reworked for proper sequence numbers on beacons. In addition, the sequence number has been placed in the hardware state, not the vif state.

2008-08-07bonding: Don't destroy bonding master when removing slave via sysfsMoni Shoua
It is wrong to destroy a bonding master from a context that uses the sysfs of that bond. When last IPoIB slave is unenslaved from by writing to a sysfs file (for bond0 this would be /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/slaves) the driver tries to destroy the bond. This is wrong and can lead to a lockup or a crash. This fix lets the bonding master stay and relies on the user to destroy the bonding master if necessary (i.e. before module ib_ipoib is unloaded) This patch affects only bonds of IPoIB slaves. Ethernet slaves stay unaffected. Signed-off-by: Moni Shoua <monis@voltaire.com> Signed-off-by: Jay Vosburgh <fubar@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>
2008-08-07bonding: refactor mii monitorJay Vosburgh
Refactor mii monitor. As with the previous ARP monitor refactor, the motivation for this is to handle locking rationally (in this case, removing conditional locking) and generally clean up the code. This patch breaks up the monolithic mii monitor into two phases: an inspection phase, followed by an optional commit phase. The commit phase is the only portion that requires RTNL or makes changes to state, and is only called when inspection finds something to change.

2008-08-07[netdrvr] Drivers should not set IFF_* flag themselvesWang Chen
Some hardware set promisc when they are requested to set IFF_ALLMULTI flag. It's ok, but if drivers set IFF_PROMISC flag when they set promisc, it will broken upper layer handle for promisc and allmulti. In addition, drivers can use their own hardware programming to make it. So do not allow drivers to set IFF_* flags. This is a general driver fix, so I didn't split it to pieces and send to specific driver maintainers.
