2005-11-18[PATCH] ipw2100: Fix 'Driver using old /proc/net/wireless...' messageJames Ketrenos
ipw2100: Fix 'Driver using old /proc/net/wireless...' message Wireless extensions moved the get_wireless_stats handler from being in net_device into wireless_handler. A prior instance of this patch resolved the issue for the ipw2200. This one fixes it for the ipw2100.

hermas_bap_pread, hermes_bap_pwrite, and hermes_bap_pwrite_pad all have a parameter "len" that is declared unsigned, but checked for a value less than zero.

2005-11-18[PATCH] e100: re-enable microcode with more useful defaultsJesse Brandeburg
For the four versions of hardware that we (currently) support microcode download on, the default configuration of our receive interrupt mitigation microcode was too aggressive, and caused unnecessary delays when pinging, and low(er) throughput on single connection latency sensitive performance tests. This code adds microcode support, and sets the defaults to more reasonable settings. It also explains the functionality in the code in more detail. Compile and load tested, shows expected behavior for slight delay of ping packets (1-2ms) when ucode is loaded, and decent interrupt moderation for small packets, while maintaining good throughput.

2005-11-18[PATCH] sil24: add sil24_restart_controllerTejun Heo
When an error condition is raised by device via D2H FIS or SDB. sil24 controller should be restarted by setting PORT_CS_INIT and waiting until PORT_CS_RDY is asserted instead of resetting the controller. This patch implements sil24_restart_controller for those cases. This patch also makes sure that PORT_CS_RDY is asserted on sil24_reset_controller completion. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> -- Jeff, delay is reduced to 1us and cnt increased to 10k. My sil3124 turns on PORT_CS_RDY on the second iteration even without any delay. I think 10k * 1us should be more than enough. I tried to convert both restart and reset to use msleep's with work queue, but if we do that, host_set lock should be released after initiating restart or reset, leading to race condition among reset/restart, other interrupts and timeout. Implementing synchronization among those in low-level driver doesn't seem right. Well, reduced timeout should work for the time being. Thanks. Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
2005-11-18[PATCH] smc91x: fix bank mismatchRussell King
The smc91x driver relies upon register bank 2 being selected whenever the interrupt handler is called. This isn't always so, especially if we have a link change event during PHY configuration. This results in register bank 0 being selected when the interrupt handler is called, causing the wrong registers to be read for the IRQ mask and status. In turn, this causes us to spin with a permanently asserted IRQ. The patch ensures that smc_phy_configure always exits with register bank 2 selected.

Removed. While at it, let's log any remaining spurious interrupts if any (and clean usage of the max IRQ loop count value).

2005-11-18[PATCH] md: fix is_mddev_idle calculation now that disk/sector accounting ↵NeilBrown
happens when request completes md needs to monitor the rate of requests to its devices when doing resync/recovery so that it can back-off when there is non-resync IO. It does this by comparing resync IO, which it counts, with total IO which is taken from disk_stats. disk_stats were recently changed to account sectors when a request completes instead of when it is queued. This upsets md's calculations. We could do the sync_io accounting at the end of requests too, but that has problems. If an underlying device is an md array, the accounting will still be done when the request is submitted. This could be changed for some raid levels, but it cannot be changed for raid0 or linear without substantial code changes. So instead, we increase the error that is_mddev_idle allows, up to the maximum amount of resync IO that can be in flight at any time. The calculation is current fragile as each personality as different limits for in-flight resync. This should be fixed up. For now, this simple patch fixes the problem. Increasing the error margin decreases the sensitivity to non-resync IO. To partially compensate for this, the time to wait when non-resync IO is detected is increased so that less steady IO is required to keep the resync at bay.
