2007-06-20ahci: fix PORTS_IMPL overrideTejun Heo
If PORTS_IMPL register is zero, ahci initialize it to full mask corresponding to nr_ports in the CAP register. hpriv->cap, which is initialized at the end of the function, is incorrectly used as value of CAP causing ahci to always override PORTS_IMPL to 0x1 if it's zero. Fix it. This fixes a bug where early ich6 ahci can only access the first port. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

2007-06-20pata_it821x: (partially) fix DMA in RAID modeBartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz
Code intended to check DMA status was checking DMA command register. Moreover firmware seems to "forget" to set DMA capable bit for the slave device (at least in RAID mode but without ITE RAID volumes) so check device ID for DMA capable bit when deciding whether to use DMA and remove DMA status check completely. Thanks to Pavol Simo for the bugreport and testing the initial fix. This change unfortunately still doesn't fix DMA in RAID mode (which works fine with IDE it821x) but Alan is working on the missing pieces (pata_it821x vs libata EH issues).

I happened to notice that a system with an NVidia NIC using the forcedeth driver won't wake-on-LAN if the interface was in promiscuous mode when you power off. By experiment, it looks like the hardware needs to have NvRegPacketFilterFlags set to NVREG_PFF_ALWAYS|NVREG_PFF_MYADDR (i.e., receive unicast packets to my address) in order for WoL to work.

2007-06-20bonding: Fix use after free in unregister pathJay Vosburgh
The following patch (based on a patch from Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@linux-foundation.org>) removes use after free conditions in the unregister path for the bonding master. Without this patch, an operation of the form "echo -bond0 > /sys/class/net/bonding_masters" would trigger a NULL pointer dereference in sysfs. I was not able to induce the failure with the non-sysfs code path, but for consistency I updated that code as well.

2007-06-20spidernet: Don't terminate the RX ringLinas Vepstas

2007-06-20spidernet: Cure RX ram full bugLinas Vepstas
This patch fixes a rare deadlock that can occur when the kernel is not able to empty out the RX ring quickly enough. Below follows a detailed description of the bug and the fix. As long as the OS can empty out the RX buffers at a rate faster than the hardware can fill them, there is no problem. If, for some reason, the OS fails to empty the RX ring fast enough, the hardware GDACTDPA pointer will catch up to the head, notice the not-empty condition, ad stop. However, RX packets may still continue arriving on the wire. The spidernet chip can save some limited number of these in local RAM. When this local ram fills up, the spider chip will issue an interrupt indicating this (GHIINT0STS will show ERRINT, and the GRMFLLINT bit will be set in GHIINT1STS). When te RX ram full condition occurs, a certain bug/feature is triggered that has to be specially handled. This section describes the special handling for this condition. When the OS finally has a chance to run, it will empty out the RX ring. In particular, it will clear the descriptor on which the hardware had stopped. However, once the hardware has decided that a certain descriptor is invalid, it will not restart at that descriptor; instead it will restart at the next descr. This potentially will lead to a deadlock condition, as the tail pointer will be pointing at this descr, which, from the OS point of view, is empty; the OS will be waiting for this descr to be filled. However, the hardware has skipped this descr, and is filling the next descrs. Since the OS doesn't see this, there is a potential deadlock, with the OS waiting for one descr to fill, while the hardware is waiting for a differen set of descrs to become empty. A call to show_rx_chain() at this point indicates the nature of the problem. A typical print when the network is hung shows the following: net eth1: Spider RX RAM full, incoming packets might be discarded! net eth1: Total number of descrs=256 net eth1: Chain tail located at descr=255 net eth1: Chain head is at 255 net eth1: HW curr desc (GDACTDPA) is at 0 net eth1: Have 1 descrs with stat=xa0800000 net eth1: HW next desc (GDACNEXTDA) is at 1 net eth1: Have 127 descrs with stat=x40800101 net eth1: Have 1 descrs with stat=x40800001 net eth1: Have 126 descrs with stat=x40800101 net eth1: Last 1 descrs with stat=xa0800000 Both the tail and head pointers are pointing at descr 255, which is marked xa... which is "empty". Thus, from the OS point of view, there is nothing to be done. In particular, there is the implicit assumption that everything in front of the "empty" descr must surely also be empty, as explained in the last section. The OS is waiting for descr 255 to become non-empty, which, in this case, will never happen. The HW pointer is at descr 0. This descr is marked 0x4.. or "full". Since its already full, the hardware can do nothing more, and thus has halted processing. Notice that descrs 0 through 254 are all marked "full", while descr 254 and 255 are empty. (The "Last 1 descrs" is descr 254, since tail was at 255.) Thus, the system is deadlocked, and there can be no forward progress; the OS thinks there's nothing to do, and the hardware has nowhere to put incoming data. This bug/feature is worked around with the spider_net_resync_head_ptr() routine. When the driver receives RX interrupts, but an examination of the RX chain seems to show it is empty, then it is probable that the hardware has skipped a descr or two (sometimes dozens under heavy network conditions). The spider_net_resync_head_ptr() subroutine will search the ring for the next full descr, and the driver will resume operations there. Since this will leave "holes" in the ring, there is also a spider_net_resync_tail_ptr() that will skip over such holes.

So if a userland program jumps to a page with Linux protection flags "---p", all the tests happily fall through, and handle_mm_fault() is called, which in turn calls handle_pte_fault(), which calls update_mmu_cache(), which goes flush the dcache to a page with no access rights.
