In the legacy rt2570 driver the link tuner was never really called. And now the reason has finally become apparent: It breaks TX capabilities As soon as the device has been associated all following TX frames will be queued in the hardware and never transmitted to the air. Disabling sections of the link tuner did not have the expected result, but completely disabling the link tuner did have the right result (Both of my rt2570 devices came back to life).

Having the buffer on the stack and even re-using it for all led devices is bad. Not being able to resolve the name member of the led device structure to a meaningful value leads to confusion during ad-hoc debugging and potential breakage in the future, if we ever decide to access the name member outside of the registration function. Move the buffer to our private per led device structures so that it is accessible after registration. A quick grep didn't yield any occurence of using the led device name parameter outside of the led device registration function, so currently we should already be safe for normal operation.

When joining an ad-hoc network, the user is currently required to specify the channel. The network will not be joined otherwise, unless it happens to be sitting on the currently active channel. This patch implements automatic channel selection when the user has not locked the interface onto a specific channel.

Commit 76e6ebfb ("netns: add namespace parameter to rt_cache_flush") acceses the extra2 parameter of the ip_default_ttl ctl_table, but it is never set to a meaningful value. When e84f84f2 ("netns: place rt_genid into struct net") is applied, we'll oops in rt_cache_invalidate(). Set extra2 to init_net, to avoid that.

If a netdevice does not support hardware GSO, allowing the stack to use GSO anyway and then splitting the GSO skb into MSS-sized pieces as it is handed to the netdevice for transmitting is likely still a win as far as throughput and/or CPU usage are concerned, since it reduces the number of trips through the output path. This patch enables the use of GSO on any netdevice that supports SG. If a GSO skb is then sent to a netdevice that supports SG but does not support hardware GSO, net/core/dev.c:dev_hard_start_xmit() will take care of doing the necessary GSO segmentation in software.

When pneigh entries exist, but the user's read buffer isn't sufficient to hold them all, one of the pneigh entries will be missing from the results. In neigh_get_idx_any, the number of elements which neigh_get_idx encountered is not correctly subtracted from the position number before the call to pneigh_get_idx. neigh_get_idx reduces the position by 1 for each call to neigh_get_next, but it does not reduce it by one for the first element (neigh_get_first). The patch alters the neigh_get_idx and pneigh_get_idx functions to subtract one from pos, for the first element, when pos is non-zero.

Based upon a bug report by Jeff Kirsher. Don't use qdisc_root_lock() in these cases as the root qdisc could have been changed, and we'd thus lock the wrong object. Tested by Emil S Tantilov who confirms that this seems to fix the problem. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This fixes a bug in operator precedence in the newly introduced vc_translate macro. Without this fix, the translation of some characters on the kernel console is garbled.

I asked legal about the licensing of ftrace.txt, and they told me that, unless the Documentation directory is specifically set up to handle non GPL licenses (which it does not appear to be), then it would be best to put ftrace.txt under the GPL. This patch adds a dual license to ftrace.txt such that it is under both the FDL and the GPL.

Currently function tty_ldisc_get() tries to load an ldisc driver module only when tty_ldisc_try_get() returns -EAGAIN. This happens only if module is being unloaded. If ldisc module is not loaded tty_ldisc_try_get() returns -EINVAL and this case is not handled in tty_ldisc_get(), so request_module() is not called. Attached patch fixes this by calling request_module() if tty_ldisc_try_get() returned any error code. I discovered this when my UMTS modem stopped working with 2.6.27-rc1 because module ppp_async was not loaded.

Some platform decide whether they support huge pages at boot time. On these, such as powerpc, HPAGE_SHIFT is a variable, not a constant, and is set to 0 when there is no such support. The patches to introduce multiple huge pages support broke that causing the kernel to crash at boot time on machines such as POWER3 which lack support for multiple page sizes.

VMLINUX_SYMBOL adds a prefix charactor. You can't just use straight symbol names in common header files as they dont take into consideration weird arch-specific ABI conventions. in the case of Blackfin/h8300, the ABI dictates that any C-visible symbols have an underscore prefixed to them. Thus all symbols in vmlinux.lds.h need to be wrapped in VMLINUX_SYMBOL() so that each arch can put hide this magic in their own files.

Each resource should be printed on its own line, so start snprintf'ing at the beginning of the buffer every time through the loop. Also, use scnprintf() rather than snprintf() when building up the buffer to print. scnprintf() returns the number of characters actually written into the buffer (not including the trailing NULL). snprintf() returns the number of characters that *would be* written, assuming everything would fit in the buffer. That's nice if we want to resize the buffer to make sure everything fits, but in this case, I just want to keep from overflowing the buffer, and it's OK if the output is truncated. Using snprintf() meant that my "len" could grow to be more than the the buffer size, which makes "sizeof(buf) - len" negative, which causes this alarming WARN_ON: http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=121736480005656&w=2 More useful snprintf/scnprintf discussion: http://lwn.net/Articles/69419/Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@hp.com> Reported-by: Pete Clements <clem@clem.clem-digital.net> Cc: Rene Herman <rene.herman@keyaccess.nl> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
