Access to fp->tx_bd_prod is protected by __netif_tx_lock, so we do not need any barrier for that. Update of fp->tx_bd_cons in bnx2x_tx_int() is not protected by lock, but barrier() nor smb_mb() in bnx2x_tx_avail() not guarantee we will see values that is written on other cpu. Ordering issues between netif_tx_stop_queue(), netif_tx_queue_stopped(), fp->tx_bd_cons = bd_cons and bnx2x_tx_avail() are already handled by smp_mb() in bnx2x_tx_int() and bnx2x_start_xmit().

Since we want to keep ordering of write to fp->bd_tx_cons and netif_tx_queue_stopped(txq), what is read of txq->state, we have to use general memory barrier. Signed-off-by: Stanislaw Gruszka <sgruszka@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The request to create an mccq was being dispatched without doing a byte swap of num_pages. This byte swap is necessary for Big Endian systems like PPC. Not having this fix leads mccq create to fail on BE ASICs running newer version of firmware, thereby causing driver initialization failure.

The davinci emac driver uses some ARM specific DMA APIs for cache coherency which have been removed from kernel with the 2.6.34 merge. Modify the driver to use the dma_{map, unmap}_single() APIs defined in dma-mapping.h Without this fix, the driver fails to compile on Linus's tree.

When the PCI pool changes were added to fix resume failures: commit 98468efd e100: Use pci pool to work around GFP_ATOMIC order 5 memory allocation failu and commit 70abc8cb e100: Fix broken cbs accounting due to missing memset. This introduced a problem that can happen if the TX ring size is increased. We need to size the PCI pool using cbs->max instead of the default cbs->count value. Signed-off-by: David S.

If we are managing IPv6 addresses using DHCP, it would be nice for user-space to be notified if an address configured through DHCP fails DAD. Otherwise user-space would have to poll to see whether DAD succeeds. This patch uses the existing notification mechanism and simply hooks it into the DAD failure code path.

Some network devices, particularly USB ones, take several seconds to fully init and appear in the device list. If the user turned ipconfig on, they are using it for NFS root or some other early booting purpose. So it makes no sense to just flat out fail immediately if the device isn't found. It also doesn't make sense to just jack up the initial wait to something crazy like 10 seconds. Instead, poll immediately, and then periodically once a second, waiting for a usable device to appear. Fail after 12 seconds. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Tested-by: Christian Pellegrin <chripell@fsfe.org>

we read the IQ correction values (i_cal and q_cal) for G mode from a wrong location (the same shifts as for A mode is applied which is incorrect). use correct locations, matching the docs and HAL sources. also we should write IQ correction only when we have that information in the EEPROM, starting from version 4. also write it in the same way as we do in the periodic recalibration (enable last), just to be sure.

I/Q calibration was completely broken, resulting in a high number of CRC errors on received packets. before i could see around 10% to 20% CRC errors, with this patch they are between 0% and 3%. 1.) the removal of the mask in commit "ath5k: Fix I/Q calibration (f1cf2dbd)" resulted in no mask beeing used when writing the I/Q values into the register. additional errors in the calculation of the values (see 2.) resulted too high numbers, exceeding the masks, so wrong values like 0xfffffffe were written. to be safe we should always use the bitmask when writing parts of a register. 2.) using a (s32) cast for q_coff is a wrong conversion to signed, since we convert to a signed value later by substracting 128. this resulted in too low numbers for Q many times, which were limited to -16 by the boundary check later on. 3.) checked everything against the HAL sources and took over comments and minor optimizations from there. 4.) we can't use ENABLE_BITS when we want to write a number (the number can contain zeros). also always write the correction values first and set ENABLE bit last, like the HAL does.

when using a fixed antenna we should use the antenna number in all tx descriptors, otherwise the hardware will sometimes send the frame out on the other antenna. it seems like the hardware does not always respect the default antenna and diversity settings (esp. AR5K_STA_ID1_DEFAULT_ANTENNA). also i would like to note that antenna diversity does not always work correctly on 5414 (at least) when only one antenna is connected: for example all frames might be received on antenna A but still the HW tries to send on antenna B some times, causing packet loss. this is both verified with the antenna statistics output of the previous patch and a spectrum analyzer.

The ieee->networks consists of 128 struct libipw_network entries. If we allocate this chunk of memory altogether, it ends up with an order 4 page allocation. High order page allocation is likely to fail on system high load. This patch splits the big chunk memory allocation into small pieces, each is 344 bytes, allocates them with 128 times.

Commit 34e89507 introduced sta_mtx locking into sta_info_insert() (now sta_info_insert_rcu), but forgot to unlock this mutex on one of the error paths. Fix this by adding the missing mutex_unlock() call for the case where STA insert fails due to an entry existing already. This may happen at least in AP mode when a STA roams between two BSSes (vifs).

Depending on their definition in z/VM, virtual devices for z/VM VSWITCH or GuestLAN must be configured either in layer2 or in layer3 mode. If qeth detects a layer mismatch, device activation fails. Trying to recover from this error cannot help; thus scheduling a recovery should be avoided. In addition, since recovery is forbidden during online setting of a qeth device, existence of its network device is guaranteed for all dev_close() calls in qeth. The corresponding checks can be removed. Signed-off-by: Ursula Braun <ursula.braun@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Frank Blaschka <frank.blaschka@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

This reverts commit 21b2d8bd. As explained by Johannes: When we build a probe request frame in the buffer with the SSID, we could arrive over the limit of 200 bytes. When we build it in the buffer without the SSID (wildcard) we don't arrive over 200 bytes, but the ucode still allows direct probe in addition because it has an internal buffer that is larger when it inserts the SSID...

Recent patch "iwlwifi: move 3945 clip groups to 3945 data" exposed a memory corruption problem. When initializing the clip groups the code was mistakenly using the iwlagn rate count, not the 3945 rate count. This resulted in more memory being written than was allocated. "iwlwifi: move 3945 clip groups to 3945 data" moved the location where the clip groups are stored and the impact is now severe in that the number of configured TX queues is modified. Previously the "temperature" field was overwritten, which did not seem to affect the operation. Fix this one instance where wrong rate count was used. I also noticed one more location where the iwlagn rate count was used to index an iwl3945 array, fix this. I also modified one location that modified the iwlagn rate count to obtain the iwl3945 rate count ... just use the iwl3945 rate count directly. This fixes http://bugzilla.intellinuxwireless.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2165 and http://bugzilla.intellinuxwireless.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2168Signed-off-by: Reinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com>
