2005-11-10[TCP]: Appropriate Byte Count supportStephen Hemminger
This is an updated version of the RFC3465 ABC patch originally for Linux 2.6.11-rc4 by Yee-Ting Li. ABC is a way of counting bytes ack'd rather than packets when updating congestion control. The orignal ABC described in the RFC applied to a Reno style algorithm. For advanced congestion control there is little change after leaving slow start.

2005-11-10[TCP]: fix congestion window update when using TSO deferalStephen Hemminger
TCP peformance with TSO over networks with delay is awful. On a 100Mbit link with 150ms delay, we get 4Mbits/sec with TSO and 50Mbits/sec without TSO. The problem is with TSO, we intentionally do not keep the maximum number of packets in flight to fill the window, we hold out to until we can send a MSS chunk. But, we also don't update the congestion window unless we have filled, as per RFC2861. This patch replaces the check for the congestion window being full with something smarter that accounts for TSO.

2005-11-10[PATCH] PCI: fix for Toshiba ohci1394 quirkJesse Barnes
After much testing and agony, I've discovered that my previous ohci1394 quirk for Toshiba laptops is not 100% reliable. It apparently fails to do the interrupt line change either correctly or in time, since in about 2 out of 5 boots, the kernel's irqdebug code will *still* disable irq 11 when the ohci1394 driver is loaded (at pci_enable_device time I think). This patch switches things around a little in the workaround. First, it removes the mdelay. I didn't see a need for it and my testing has shown that it's not necessary for the quirk to work. Secondly, instead of trying to change the interrupt line to what ACPI tells us it should be, this patch makes the quirk use the value in the PCI_INTERRUPT_LINE register. On this laptop at least, that seems to be the right thing to do, though additional testing on other laptops and/or with actual firewire devices would be appreciated.

2005-11-10[PATCH] PCI: Change MSI to use physical delivery mode alwaysAshok Raj
MSI hardcoded delivery mode to use logical delivery mode. Recently x86_64 moved to use physical mode addressing to support physflat mode. With this mode enabled noticed that my eth with MSI werent working. msi_address_init() was hardcoded to use logical mode for i386 and x86_64. So when we switch to use physical mode, things stopped working. Since anyway we dont use lowest priority delivery with MSI, its always directed to just a single CPU. Its safe and simpler to use physical mode always, even when we use logical delivery mode for IPI's or other ioapic RTE's.

2005-11-10[PATCH] PCI: automatically set device_driver.ownerLaurent riffard
A nice feature of sysfs is that it can create the symlink from the driver to the module that is contained in it. It requires that the device_driver.owner is set, what is not the case for many PCI drivers. This patch allows pci_register_driver to set automatically the device_driver.owner for any PCI driver.

2005-11-10[PATCH] pciehp: clean-up how we request control of hotplug hardwarerajesh.shah@intel.com
This patch further tweaks how we request control of hotplug controller hardware from BIOS. We first search the ACPI namespace corresponding to a specific hotplug controller looking for an _OSC or OSHP method. On failure, we successively move to the ACPI parent object, till we hit the highest level host bridge in the hierarchy. This allows for different types of BIOS's which place the _OSC/OSHP methods at various places in the acpi namespace, while still not encroaching on the namespace of some other root level host bridge. This patch also introduces a new load time option (pciehp_force) that allows us to bypass all _OSC/OSHP checking. Not supporting these methods seems to be be the most common ACPI firmware problem we've run into. This will still _not_ allow the pciehp driver to work correctly if the BIOS really doesn't support pciehp (i.e. if it doesn't generate a hotplug interrupt). Use this option with caution. Some BIOS's may deliberately not build any _OSC/OSHP methods to make sure it retains control the hotplug hardware. Using the pciehp_force parameter for such systems can lead to two separate entities trying to control the same hardware.

2005-11-10[PATCH] pciehp: request control of each hotplug controller individuallyrajesh.shah@intel.com
This patch tweaks the way pciehp requests control of the hotplug hardware from BIOS. It now tries to invoke the ACPI _OSC method for a specific hotplug controller only, rather than walking the entire acpi namespace invoking all possible _OSC methods under all host bridges. This allows us to gain control of each hotplug controller individually, even if BIOS fails to give us control of some other hotplug controller in the system.

2005-11-10[PATCH] pciehp: remove redundant data structuresrajesh.shah@intel.com
State information is currently stored in per-slot as well as per-pci-function data structures in pciehp. There's a lot of overlap in the information kept, and some of it is never used. This patch consolidates the state information to per-slot and eliminates unused data structures. The biggest change is to eliminate the pci_func structure and the code around managing its lists.

2005-11-10[PATCH] pciehp: reduce dependence on ACPIrajesh.shah@intel.com
Reduce the PCI Express hotplug driver's dependence on ACPI. We don't walk the acpi namespace anymore to build a list of bridges and devices. We go to ACPI only to run the _OSC or _OSHP methods to transition control of hotplug hardware from system BIOS to the hotplug driver, and to run the _HPP method to get hotplug device parameters like cache line size, latency timer and SERR/PERR enable from BIOS. Note that one of the side effects of this patch is that pciehp does not automatically enable the hot-added device or its DMA bus mastering capability now. It expects the device driver to do that. This may break some drivers and we will have to fix them as they are reported. Signed-off-by: Rajesh Shah <rajesh.shah@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

2005-11-10[PATCH] PCI: add pci_find_next_capability()Roland Dreier
Some devices have more than one capability of the same type. For example, the PCI header for the PathScale InfiniPath looks like: 04:01.0 InfiniBand: Unknown device 1fc1:000d (rev 02) Subsystem: Unknown device 1fc1:000d Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 193 Memory at fea00000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=2M] Capabilities: [c0] HyperTransport: Slave or Primary Interface Capabilities: [f8] HyperTransport: Interrupt Discovery and Configuration There are _two_ HyperTransport capabilities, and the PathScale driver wants to look at both of them. The current pci_find_capability() API doesn't work for this, since it only allows us to get to the first capability of a given type. The patch below introduces a new pci_find_next_capability(), which can be used in a loop like for (pos = pci_find_capability(pdev, <ID>); pos; pos = pci_find_next_capability(pdev, pos, <ID>)) { /* ... */ } Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com> Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox <matthew@wil.cx> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

2005-11-10[NET]: Detect hardware rx checksum faults correctlyHerbert Xu
Here is the patch that introduces the generic skb_checksum_complete which also checks for hardware RX checksum faults. If that happens, it'll call netdev_rx_csum_fault which currently prints out a stack trace with the device name. In future it can turn off RX checksum. I've converted every spot under net/ that does RX checksum checks to use skb_checksum_complete or __skb_checksum_complete with the exceptions of: * Those places where checksums are done bit by bit. These will call netdev_rx_csum_fault directly. * The following have not been completely checked/converted: ipmr ip_vs netfilter dccp This patch is based on patches and suggestions from Stephen Hemminger and David S.
