mwifiex: report error to MMC core if we cannot suspend

2012-12-03T20:59:13Z

commit dd321acddc3be1371263b8c9e6c6f2af89f63d57 upstream. When host_sleep_config command fails we should return error to MMC core to indicate the failure for our device. The misspelled variable is also removed as it's redundant. Signed-off-by: Bing Zhao Signed-off-by: John W. Linville Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

r8169: use unlimited DMA burst for TX

2012-11-26T19:34:36Z

commit aee77e4accbeb2c86b1d294cd84fec4a12dde3bd upstream. The r8169 driver currently limits the DMA burst for TX to 1024 bytes. I have a box where this prevents the interface from using the gigabit line to its full potential. This patch solves the problem by setting TX_DMA_BURST to unlimited. The box has an ASRock B75M motherboard with on-board RTL8168evl/8111evl (XID 0c900880). TSO is enabled. I used netperf (TCP_STREAM test) to measure the dependency of TX throughput on MTU. I did it for three different values of TX_DMA_BURST ('5'=512, '6'=1024, '7'=unlimited). This chart shows the results: http://michich.fedorapeople.org/r8169/r8169-effects-of-TX_DMA_BURST.png Interesting points: - With the current DMA burst limit (1024): - at the default MTU=1500 I get only 842 Mbit/s. - when going from small MTU, the performance rises monotonically with increasing MTU only up to a peak at MTU=1076 (908 MBit/s). Then there's a sudden drop to 762 MBit/s from which the throughput rises monotonically again with further MTU increases. - With a smaller DMA burst limit (512): - there's a similar peak at MTU=1076 and another one at MTU=564. - With unlimited DMA burst: - at the default MTU=1500 I get nice 940 Mbit/s. - the throughput rises monotonically with increasing MTU with no strange peaks. Notice that the peaks occur at MTU sizes that are multiples of the DMA burst limit plus 52. Why 52? Because: 20 (IP header) + 20 (TCP header) + 12 (TCP options) = 52 The Realtek-provided r8168 driver (v8.032.00) uses unlimited TX DMA burst too, except for CFG_METHOD_1 where the TX DMA burst is set to 512 bytes. CFG_METHOD_1 appears to be the oldest MAC version of "RTL8168B/8111B", i.e. RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_11 in r8169. Not sure if this MAC version really needs the smaller burst limit, or if any other versions have similar requirements. Signed-off-by: Michal Schmidt Acked-by: Francois Romieu Signed-off-by: David S.

net: usb: Fix memory leak on Tx data path

2012-11-17T21:14:24Z

[ Upstream commit 39707c2a3ba5011038b363f84d37c8a98d2d9db1 ] Driver anchors the tx urbs and defers the urb submission if a transmit request comes when the interface is suspended. Anchoring urb increments the urb reference count. These deferred urbs are later accessed by calling usb_get_from_anchor() for submission during interface resume. usb_get_from_anchor() unanchors the urb but urb reference count remains same. This causes the urb reference count to remain non-zero after usb_free_urb() gets called and urb never gets freed. Hence call usb_put_urb() after anchoring the urb to properly balance the reference count for these deferred urbs. Also, unanchor these deferred urbs during disconnect, to free them up.

rt2800: validate step value for temperature compensation

2012-11-17T21:14:20Z

commit bf7e1abe434ba9e22e8dc04a4cba4ab504b788b8 upstream. Some hardware has correct (!= 0xff) value of tssi_bounds[4] in the EEPROM, but step is equal to 0xff. This results on ridiculous delta calculations and completely broke TX power settings.

ath9k: fix stale pointers potentially causing access to free'd skbs

2012-11-17T21:14:20Z

commit 8c6e30936a7893a85f6222084f0f26aceb81137a upstream. bf->bf_next is only while buffers are chained as part of an A-MPDU in the tx queue. When a tid queue is flushed (e.g. on tearing down an aggregation session), frames can be enqueued again as normal transmission, without bf_next being cleared. This can lead to the old pointer being dereferenced again later. This patch might fix crashes and "Failed to stop TX DMA!" messages. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau Signed-off-by: John W.
