o Remove private workqueue in the driver, move all scheduled tasks to keventd workqueues. This makes ports (interfaces) of same / different NIC boards independent, in terms of their link watchdog and reset tasks. o Move quick checks for link status and temperature in timer callback, schedule watchdog task only if link status changed or temperature reached critical threshold. This also fixes deadlock when thermal panic occurs, watchdog work was flushing workqueue that it was sitting on.

Currently setting rx-usecs when the interface is in legacy interrupt mode it is not immediate. We were only setting EITR for each MSIx vector and since this count would be zero for legacy mode it wasn't set until after a reset. This patch corrects that by checking what mode we are in and then setting EITR accordingly.

For 'real' hardware CAN devices the netlink interface is used to set CAN specific communication parameters. Real CAN hardware can not be created with the ip tool ... The invocation of 'ip link add type can' lead to an oops as the standard rtnl newlink function was called: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13954 This patch adds a private newlink function for the CAN device driver interface that unconditionally returns -EOPNOTSUPP.

The bank offset was being incorrectly calculated on ICH9 parts with a bank size of 8K (instead of the more common 4K bank) which would cause any NVM writes to be done on the wrong address after switching from bank 1 to bank 0. Additionally, assume we are meant to use bank 0 if a valid bank is not detected, and remove the unnecessary acquisition of the SW/FW/HW semaphore when writing to the shadow ram version of the NVM image.

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.

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.

Commit f0b3fbea ("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.

This patch implements the kernel side support for ftrace event record sampling. A new counter sampling attribute is added: PERF_SAMPLE_TP_RECORD which requests ftrace events record sampling. In this case if a PERF_TYPE_TRACEPOINT counter is active and a tracepoint fires, we emit the tracepoint binary record to the perfcounter event buffer, as a sample. Result, after setting PERF_SAMPLE_TP_RECORD attribute from perf record: perf record -f -F 1 -a -e workqueue:workqueue_execution perf report -D 0x21e18 [0x48]: event: 9 . . ... raw event: size 72 bytes . 0000: 09 00 00 00 01 00 48 00 d0 c7 00 81 ff ff ff ff ......H........ . 0010: 0a 00 00 00 0a 00 00 00 21 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ........!...... . 0020: 2b 00 01 02 0a 00 00 00 0a 00 00 00 65 76 65 6e +...........eve . 0030: 74 73 2f 31 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 0a 00 00 00 ts/1........... . 0040: e0 b1 31 81 ff ff ff ff ....... . 0x21e18 [0x48]: PERF_EVENT_SAMPLE (IP, 1): 10: 0xffffffff8100c7d0 period: 33 The raw ftrace binary record starts at offset 0020.

For that we need to have an instant access to the perf counter attribute. This is a matter of a flag to add in the struct ftrace_event. - Take care of the events recursivity! Don't ever try to record a lock event for example, it seems some locking is used in the profiling fast path and lead to a tracing recursivity. That will be fixed using raw spinlock or recursivity protection. - [...] - Profit! :-) Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Li Zefan <lizf@cn.fujitsu.com> Cc: Tom Zanussi <tzanussi@gmail.com> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Pekka Enberg <penberg@cs.helsinki.fi> Cc: Gabriel Munteanu <eduard.munteanu@linux360.ro> Cc: Lai Jiangshan <laijs@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

The check for an edge is broken in current ioapic code. ioapic->irr is cleared on each edge interrupt by ioapic_service() and this makes old_irr != ioapic->irr condition in kvm_ioapic_set_irq() to be always true. The patch fixes the code to properly recognise edge. Some HW emulation calls set_irq() without level change. If each such call is propagated to an OS it may confuse a device driver. This is the case with keyboard device emulation and Windows XP x64 installer on SMP VM. Each keystroke produce two interrupts (down/up) one interrupt is submitted to CPU0 and another to CPU1. This confuses Windows somehow and it ignores keystrokes. Signed-off-by: Gleb Natapov <gleb@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
