2.6.25 regression: powertop says 120K wakeups/sec

2008-05-10T04:40:41Z

commit 0fda6b403f0eca66ad8a7c946b3996e359100443 upstream Patch to fix huge number of wakeups reported due to recent changes in processor_idle.c. The problem was that the entry_method determination was broken due to one of the recent commits (bc71bec91f987) causing C1 entry to not to go to halt. http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/3/22/124 Signed-off-by: Venkatesh Pallipadi Signed-off-by: Len Brown Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

drivers/net/tehuti: use proper capability check for raw IO access

2008-05-01T21:44:39Z

commit 6203554207728f43cfb9fd48585cd6500da73d42 in mainline. Yeah, in practice they both mean "root", but Alan correctly points out that anybody who gets to do raw IO space accesses should really be using CAP_SYS_RAWIO rather than CAP_NET_ADMIN.

SCSI: qla2xxx: Correct regression in relogin code.

2008-05-01T21:44:39Z

commit: 666301e673e192c87a40e07a8357d6996b57b70f upstream Commit 63a8651f2548c6bb5132c0b4e7dad4f57a9274db ([SCSI] qla2xxx: Correct infinite-login-retry issue.) introduced a small regression where a successful relogin would result in an fcport's loop_id to be incorrectly reset to FC_NO_LOOP_ID. Only clear-out loopid, if retries have been 'truly' exhausted. Signed-off-by: Andrew Vasquez Signed-off-by: James Bottomley Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

RDMA/nes: Fix adapter reset after PXE boot

2008-05-01T21:44:38Z

commit: bc5698f3ecc9587e1edb343a2878f8d228c49e0e upstream After PXE boot, the iw_nes driver does a full reset to ensure the card is in a clean state. However, it doesn't wait for firmware to complete its work before issuing a port reset to enable the ports, which leads to problems bringing up the ports. The solution is to wait for firmware to complete its work before proceeding with port reset. This bug was flagged by Roland Dreier .
