2009-08-17NETROM: Fix use of static bufferRalf Baechle
The static variable used by nr_call_to_digi might result in corruption if multiple threads are trying to usee a node or neighbour via ioctl. Fixed by having the caller pass a structure in. This is safe because nr_add_node rsp. nr_add_neigh will allocate a permanent structure, if needed. Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

commit 111b9dc5 ("e1000e: add aer support") introduces pcie aer support for e1000e, but it is not reasonable to disable it in e1000_remove but enable it in e1000_resume.

With manageability (Intel AMT) enabled via BIOS, PHY wakeup does not get configured on newer parts which use PHY wakeup vs. MAC wakeup which causes WoL to not work.

2009-08-15cnic: Fix locking in init/exit calls.Michael Chan
The slow path ulp_init and ulp_exit calls to the bnx2i driver are sleepable calls and therefore should not be protected using rcu_read_lock. Fix it by using mutex and refcount during these calls. cnic_unregister_driver() will now wait for the refcount to go to zero before completing the call.

2009-08-14drivers/net: fixed drivers that support netpoll use ndo_start_xmit()Dongdong Deng
The NETPOLL API requires that interrupts remain disabled in netpoll_send_skb(). The use of spin_lock_irq() and spin_unlock_irq() in the NETPOLL API callbacks causes the interrupts to get enabled and can lead to kernel instability. The solution is to use spin_lock_irqsave() and spin_unlock_restore() to prevent the irqs from getting enabled while in netpoll_send_skb(). Call trace: netpoll_send_skb() { -> local_irq_save(flags) ---> dev->ndo_start_xmit(skb, dev) ---> spin_lock_irq() ---> spin_unlock_irq() *******here would enable the interrupt. ... -> local_irq_restore(flags) } Signed-off-by: Dongdong Deng <dongdong.deng@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: Jason Wessel <jason.wessel@windriver.com> Acked-by: Bruce Ashfield <bruce.ashfield@windriver.com> Acked-by: Matt Mackall <mpm@selenic.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Change rt2x00_rf_read() and rt2x00_rf_write() to subtract 1 from the rf register number. This is needed because the rf registers are enumerated starting with one. The size of the rf register cache is just enough to hold all registers, so writing to the highest register was corrupting memory. Add a check to make sure that the rf register number is valid.

2009-08-13ixgbe: Do not return 0 in ixgbe_fcoe_ddp() upon FCP_RSP in DDP completionYi Zou
We return the ddp->len in ixgbe_fcoe_ddp() to indicate the length of data that have been DDPed. However, it is possible that the length is 0, e.g., for SCSI READ, the FCP_RSP may come back w/ SCSI status 0x28 as Task Set Full with no FCP data for DDP. In ixgbe_fcoe_ddp(), we return 0 to indicate not passing DDPed packets to upper layer. Therefore in the case of ddp->len being 0 upon FCP_RSP, we do not want to return the 0 ddp->len as we want FCP_RSP to be always delivered to the upper layer. This patch fixes this bug by setting rc only if ddp->len is non-zero.

2009-08-13mac80211: fix panic when splicing unprepared TIDsLuis R. Rodriguez
We splice skbs from the pending queue for a TID onto the local pending queue when tearing down a block ack request. This is not necessary unless we actually have received a request to start a block ack request (rate control, for example). If we never received that request we should not be splicing the tid pending queue as it would be null, causing a panic. Not sure yet how exactly we allowed through a call when the tid state does not have at least HT_ADDBA_REQUESTED_MSK set, that will require some further review as it is not quite obvious.

Instead of passing the register index of the corresponding rx_ring and find the way back to get to corresponding rx_ring in ixgbe_configure_srrctl(), simplify the function ixgbe_configure_srrctl() by passing the rx_ring into it. Then the register index for that rx_ring is already available from rx_ring->reg_idx.

2009-08-09tun: Extend RTNL lock coverage over whole ioctlHerbert Xu
As it is, parts of the ioctl runs under the RTNL and parts of it do not. The unlocked section is still protected by the BKL, but there can be subtle races. For example, Eric Biederman and Paul Moore observed that if two threads tried to create two tun devices on the same file descriptor, then unexpected results may occur. As there isn't anything in the ioctl that is expected to sleep indefinitely, we can prevent this from occurring by extending the RTNL lock coverage. This also allows to get rid of the BKL. Finally, I changed tun_get_iff to take a tun device in order to avoid calling tun_put which would dead-lock as it also tries to take the RTNL lock.

2009-08-09fec: fix FEC driver packet transmission breakageGreg Ungerer
Commit f0b3fbeae11a526c3d308b691684589ee37c359b ("FEC Buffer rework") breaks transmission of packets where the skb data buffer is not memory aligned according to FEC_ALIGNMENT. It incorrectly passes to dma_sync_single() the buffer address directly from the skb, instead of the address calculated for use (which may be the skb address or one of the bounce buffers). It seems there is no use converting the cpu address of the buffer to a physical either, since dma_map_single() expects the cpu address and will return the dma address to use in the descriptor. So remove the use of __pa() on the buffer address as well. This patch is against 2.6.30-rc5. This breakage is a regression over 2.6.30, which does not have this problem.
