2009-10-07iwlwifi: incorrect method used for finding valid OTP blocksJay Sternberg
The address stored in the next link address is a word address but when reading the OTP blocks, a byte address is used. Also if the blocks are full and the last link pointer is not zero, then none of the blocks are valid so return an error. The algorithm is simply valid blocks have a next address and that address's contents is zero. Using the wrong address for the next link address gets arbitrary data, obviously. In cases seen, the first block is considered valid when it is not. If the block has in fact been invalidated there may be old data or there may be no data, bad data, or partial data, there is no way of telling. Without this patch it is possible that a device with valid OTP data is unable to work.

2009-10-07ethoc: limit the number of buffers to 128Thomas Chou
Only 128 buffer descriptors are supported in the core. Limit the number in case we have more memory. Signed-off-by: Thomas Chou <thomas@wytron.com.tw> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-10-07ethoc: use system memory as bufferThomas Chou
This patch enabled the ethoc to allocate system memory as buffer when there is no dedicated buffer memory. Some hardware designs may not have dedicated buffer memory such as on chip or off chip SRAM. In this case, only one memory resource is supplied in the platform data instead of two. Then a DMA buffer can be allocated from system memory and used for the transfer.

2009-10-07ethoc: align received packet to make IP header at word boundaryThomas Chou
The packet buffer is allocated at 4 bytes boundary, but the IP header length and version bits is located at byte 14. These bit fields access as 32 bits word and caused exception on processors that do not support unaligned access. The patch adds 2 bytes offset to make the bit fields word aligned.

2009-10-07ethoc: fix buffer address mappingThomas Chou
The pointer address in buffer descriptors is physical address. The pointer that processor used to access packet is virtual address. Though the higher bits of pointer address used by the MAC may be truncated to zero in special case, it is not always true in larger designs.

2009-10-07tg3: Fix phylib locking strategyMatt Carlson

2009-10-01sky2: irqname based on pci addressStephen Hemminger
This is based on Michal Schmidt fix for skge. Most network drivers request their IRQ when the interface is activated. sky2 does it in ->probe() instead, because it can work with two-port cards where the two net_devices use the same IRQ. This works fine most of the time, except in some situations when the interface gets renamed. Consider this example: 1. modprobe sky2 The card is detected as eth0 and requests IRQ 17. Directory /proc/irq/17/eth0 is created. 2. There is an udev rule which says this interface should be called eth1, so udev renames eth0 -> eth1. 3. modprobe 8139too The Realtek card is detected as eth0. It will be using IRQ 17 too. 4. ip link set eth0 up Now 8139too requests IRQ 17. The result is: WARNING: at fs/proc/generic.c:590 proc_register ... proc_dir_entry '17/eth0' already registered The fix is for sky2 to name the irq based on the pci device, as is done by some other devices DRM, infiniband, ... ie. sky2@pci:0000:00:00 Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Reviewed-by: Michal Schmidt <mschmidt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

And "ls /proc/irq/17" shows two subdirectories, both called eth0. Fix it by using a unique name for skge's IRQ, based on the PCI address. The naming from the example then looks like this: $ grep skge /proc/interrupts 17: 169 IO-APIC-fasteoi skge@pci:0000:00:0a.0, eth0 irqbalance daemon will have to be taught to recognize "skge@" as an Ethernet interrupt.
