Attached is the latest version of Adrian Cox's OCP patch for MPC107/8240/8245. This unifies some openpic setup code, and ensures that the OCP devices are only added to the bus on chip variants which have them. All interested parties seem happy, and this patch is necessary to provide a unified I2C driver for 85xx and 107/824x.

Recently I changed the return value of rtas_call() from an unsigned long to an int. That patch missed a few places where we declare a variable to store the result from rtas_call(). This new patch changes those places to use an int variable instead of a long or unsigned long variable. Linas Vepstas pointed this out.

This patch from Linas Vepstas (rediffed by me) fixes the confusing argument aliasing of the log_rtas_error() subroutine. This patch makes no functional changes, it just cleans up some strange usage. The rtas_args used to communicate with firmware are always taken from the paca struct, so as to keep the args at a fixed, low-memory location. But the log_rtas_error() routine also took an rtas_args pointer, which it assumed was aliased to the paca struct. This aliasing is both un-neccessary, and confusing; this patch eliminates this confusion.

Cleanup the PPC64 PACA structure. It was previously a big mess of unecessary fields, overengineered cache layout and uninformative comments. This is essentially a rewrite of include/asm-pp64/paca.h with associated changes elsewhere. The patch: - Removes unused PACA fields - Removes uneeded #includes - Uses gcc attributes instead of explicit padding to get the desired cacheline layout, also rethinks the layout and comments accordingly. - Better comments where asm or firmware dependencies apply non-obvious layout constraints. - Splits up the pointless STAB structure, letting us move its elements independently. - Uses offsetof instead of hardcoded offset in spinlocks. - Eradicates xStudlyCaps identifiers - Replaces PACA guard page with an explicitly defined emergency stack (removing more than NR_CPUS pages from the initialized data segment).

This patch removes the RTAS arguments structure on ppc64 from the PACA. The args have to be in the RMO, but since we have a global spinlock for RTAS anyway, there's no reason to have a separate copy of the args per-CPU. This patch replaces the PACA field with a single instance in the global rtas structure. The one exception is for the rtas_stop_self() call, which can't take the lock, because it never returns. But it has a fixed set of arguments, so we can use another global instance which is initialized at boot. This lets us remove rtas.h from paca.h, which substantially reduces overall #include hairiness (because paca.h is now, as it wants to be, a nice low-level structure-defining header which relies on very little and can safely be included almost anywhere). Although it does add some noise to the patch, because a bunch of places relied on the indirect inclusion of rtas.h, or even more indirect inclusions (see the hunks applying to eeh.h and current.h!).

Current 2.6.7 tree acts as if it is alway under memory pressure because a recent change did a s/tcp_memory_pressure/tcp_prot.memory_pressure/. The problem is tcp_prot.memory_pressure is a pointer, so it is always non-zero! Rather than using *tcp_prot.memory_pressure, just go back to looking at tcp_memory_pressure.

'strace' shows a problem with a missing release_task for self-reaping clones that have been traced. We need to defer releasing them until the tracer is done with them, but if the tracer dies, we need to handle that case gracefully too. We do that by having 'forget_original_parent()' generate a list of tasks to release when this case happens. Patch based on discussions on linux-kernel, and suggestions from Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com>.

This fixes a corner-case NX bug: the x86 SMP kernel doesnt boot on SMP Opterons if NX is enabled [and mem=nopentium is specified], due to kernel-space NX protection preventing the SMP trampoline from being executable. Since the SMP trampoline is a rare case of 'dynamic code' executed by the kernel (it has to be below 640K so it cannot be part of the kernel text itself), i've added the necessary infrastructure to enable/disable executability of specific kernel pages. We cannot simply disable NX via the MSR because we've got the NX bits in the kernel pagetables, which are set up before we do the SMP bootup. The NX bit in the pagetables is undefined if EFER.NXE is 0, so we cannot count on NX-capable CPUs not faulting when they encounter them. I've tested the x86 kernel on a non-NX SMP x86 box and on an NX UP box, on which i've also tested a simulated SMP trampoline, it all works fine. - add infrastructure to enable/disable executability of kernel pages - make the SMP trampoline page executable.

This is a rather old patch which re-orders the teardown of PCMCIA network devices. Current device drivers remove the IO mappings, interrupts, and free any PCMCIA windows before they unregister themselves from the network layer. This patch ensures that we first unregister from the network layer before performing any teardown of resources or windows. Note: the only card which has been tested in this patch is pcnet_cs.

Several network drivers have checks that they are only built with -O. This breaks checking with sparse and other tools, and seems like a holdover from when drivers were built out of tree and the kernel build system was less stable. This patch gets rid of these.

This started out from sparse warnings about calling with fddi_broadcast that is declared const. This fixes that and gets rid of some of the namespace pollution of this driver by moving the predicate function is_individual, is_broadcast, ... as inline's in the one file that uses them.

The pcnet32 driver was not correctly enabling MII autonegotiation after booting when ppc firmware forced the speed/duplex mode of the chip. After several conversations with AMD this patch corrects the problem. I have tested this on hardware I have available (ia32 and ppc64) but I would like wider audience testing of this patch.

A recent change I made broke pcnet32 in a way that allowed real hardware to work, but broke VMWare. This patch acknowledges all interrupts early in the pcnet32_interrupt while loop. Without this patch on real hardware the first transmit operation would clear the 'init' interrupt, but in VMWare it would rain interrupts. Keith Moore did more testing for me on VMWare and I did a better job testing on hardware. Petr Vandrovec correctly pointed out the source of the problem on lkml. This patch is not needed for 2.4.27-rc1 unless my patch labeled "pcnet32: recover after rx hang" is applied (which it has not). signed-off-by: Don Fry <brazilnut@us.ibm.com>
