The link state machine requires access to some resources that are shared with the iSCSI function on the chip. (See iSCSI driver at drivers/scsi/qla4xxx) If the interface is being up/downed at a rapid pace this driver may need to sleep waiting to get access to the common resources. For this we are moving the state machine to run as a work thread. Signed-off-by: Ron Mercer <ron.mercer@qlogic.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

The standard validate_addr handler refuses to accept the all zeroes address as valid. However, it's common historical practice for the bonding master to be configured up prior to having any slaves, at which time the master will have a MAC address of all zeroes. Resolved by setting the dev->validate_addr to NULL. The master still can't end up with an invalid address, as the set_mac_address function tests for validity.

Looks like I incorrectly merged one of the rtnl lock changes, so that one function, bonding_show_active_slave, held rtnl but didn't release it, and another, bonding_store_active_slave, never held rtnl but did release it. Fixed so the first function doesn't mess with rtnl, and the second correctly acquires and releases rtnl.

Fix an IRQ race condition in b43legacy. If we call b43legacy_wireless_core_stop(), it will set the status of the device to INITIALIZED and the IRQ handler won't care any longer about IRQs, thus the kernel will disable the IRQ if it's shared (unless we boot it with the 'irqpoll' option). So we must disable IRQs before changing the device status. Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <stefano.brivio@polimi.it> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

This patch adds LAN91C111 ethernet interface support for zylonite (a.k.a Marvell's PXA3xx Development Platform) with smc91x driver. It would be better if a patch would support zylonite along with all other PXA boards with a single binary of smc91x driver, but it looks quite difficult for the moment, so ugly #ifdef is still used here.

The PCI AER support may not work for a couple of reasons. It may not be configured into the kernel or there may be a BIOS bug that prevents MMCONFIG from working. If MMCONFIG doesn't work then the PCI registers that control AER will not be accessible via pci_read_config functions; luckly there is another window to access PCI space in the device, so use that.

compat_exit_robust_list() computes a pointer to the futex entry in userspace as follows: (void __user *)entry + futex_offset 'entry' is a 'struct robust_list __user *', and 'futex_offset' is a 'compat_long_t' (typically a 's32'). Things explode if the 32-bit sign bit is set in futex_offset. Type promotion sign extends futex_offset to a 64-bit value before adding it to 'entry'. This triggered a problem on sparc64 running 32-bit applications which would lock up a cpu looping forever in the fault handling for the userspace load in handle_futex_death(). Compat userspace runs with address masking (wherein the cpu zeros out the top 32-bits of every effective address given to a memory operation instruction) so the sparc64 fault handler accounts for this by zero'ing out the top 32-bits of the fault address too. Since the kernel properly uses the compat_uptr interfaces, kernel side accesses to compat userspace work too since they will only use addresses with the top 32-bit clear. Because of this compat futex layer bug we get into the following loop when executing the get_user() load near the top of handle_futex_death(): 1) load from address '0xfffffffff7f16bd8', FAULT 2) fault handler clears upper 32-bits, processes fault for address '0xf7f16bd8' which succeeds 3) goto #1 I want to thank Bernd Zeimetz, Josip Rodin, and Fabio Massimo Di Nitto for their tireless efforts helping me track down this bug.
