2006-03-03[PATCH] bonding: suppress duplicate packetsJay Vosburgh
Originally submitted by Kenzo Iwami; his original description is: The current bonding driver receives duplicate packets when broadcast/ multicast packets are sent by other devices or packets are flooded by the switch. In this patch, new flags are added in priv_flags of net_device structure to let the bonding driver discard duplicate packets in dev.c:skb_bond(). Modified by Jay Vosburgh to change a define name, update some comments, rearrange the new skb_bond() for clarity, clear all bonding priv_flags on slave release, and update the driver version.

2006-02-28[PATCH] Add mm->task_size and fix powerpc vdsoBenjamin Herrenschmidt
This patch adds mm->task_size to keep track of the task size of a given mm and uses that to fix the powerpc vdso so that it uses the mm task size to decide what pages to fault in instead of the current thread flags (which broke when ptracing). (akpm: I expect that mm_struct.task_size will become the way in which we finally sort out the confusion between 32-bit processes and 32-bit mm's. It may need tweaks, but at this stage this patch is powerpc-only.)

2006-02-28[PATCH] remove_from_swap: fix lockingChristoph Lameter
remove_from_swap() currently attempts to use page_lock_anon_vma to obtain an anon_vma lock. That is not working since the page may have been remapped via swap ptes in order to move the page. However, do_migrate_pages() obtain the mmap_sem lock and therefore there is a guarantee that the anonymous vma will not vanish from under us. There is therefore no need to use page_lock_anon_vma.

2006-02-28[PATCH] drivers/mtd/redboot.c: recognise a foreign byte sex partition tableJohn Bowler
The RedBoot boot loader writes flash partition tables containing native byte sex 32 bit values. When booting an opposite byte sex kernel (e.g. an LE kernel from BE RedBoot) the current MTD driver fails to handle the partition table and therefore is unable to generate the correct partition map for the flash. So far as I am aware this problem is ARM specific, because only ARM supports software change of the CPU (memory system) byte sex, however the partition table parsing is in generic MTD code. The patch below has been tested on NSLU2 (an IXP4XX based system) with a patch, 10-ixp4xx-copy-from.patch (submitted to linux-arm-kernel - it's ARM specific) required to make the maps/ixp4xx.c driver work with an LE kernel. Builds of the patched system are in the 'unstable' release of OpenSlug and UcSlugC available from www.nslu2-linux.org. These builds are BE, the archives at www.nslu2-linux.org and www.handhelds.org (see monotone.vanille.de) can be built LE (currently DISTRO targets nslu-ltu.conf for LE thumb uclibc (32 bit kernel) and nslu2-lau.conf, nslu2-lag.conf for LE arm uclibc/glibc) and this patch has been tested extensively will both BE and LE systems on the NSLU2 (including swapping between BE and LE by reflashing from both RedBoot and Linux). The patch recognises that the FIS directory (the partition table) is byte-reversed by examining the partition table size, which is known to be one erase block (this is an assumption made elsewhere in redboot.c). If the size matches the erase block after byte swapping the value then byte-reversal is assumed, if not no further action is taken. The patched code is fail safe; should redboot.c be changed to support a partition table with a modified size field the test will fail and the partition table will be assumed to have the host byte sex. If byte-reversal is detected the patch byte swaps the remainder of the 32 bit fields in the copy of the table; this copy is then used to set up the MTD partition map.

2006-02-28[PATCH] fuse: fix bug in negative lookupMiklos Szeredi
If negative entries (nodeid == 0) were sent in reply to LOOKUP requests, two bugs could be triggered: - looking up a negative entry would return -EIO, - revaildate on an entry which turned negative would send a FORGET request with zero nodeid, which would cause an abort() in the library. The above would only happen if the 'negative_timeout=N' option was used, otherwise lookups reply -ENOENT, which worked correctly.

2006-02-28[PATCH] e1000: revert to single descriptor for legacy receive pathJeff Kirsher
A recent patch attempted to enable more efficient memory usage by using only 2kB descriptors for jumbo frames. The method used to implement this has since been commented upon as "illegal" and in recent kernels even causes a BUG when receiving ip fragments while using jumbo frames. This patch simply goes back to the way things were. We expect some complaints due to order 3 allocations failing to come back due to this change.
