2009-09-28iwlwifi: fix 3945 ucode info retrieval after failureReinette Chatre
When hardware or uCode problem occurs driver captures significant information from device to enable debugging. The format of this information is different between 3945 and 4965 and later devices, yet currently the 3945 uses the 4965 and later format. Fix this by adding a new library call that is initialized to the correct formatting routine based on device. This moves the iwlagn event and error log handling back to iwl-agn.c to make it part of iwlagn module. Also remove the 3945 sysfs file that triggers dump of event log - there is already a debugfs file that can do it for all drivers.

2009-09-28iwlwifi: fix debugfs buffer handlingReinette Chatre
We keep track of where to write into a buffer by keeping a count of how much has been written so far. When writing to the buffer we thus take the buffer pointer and adding the count of what has been written so far. Keeping track of what has been written so far is done by incrementing this number every time something is written to the buffer with how much has been written at that time. Currently this number is incremented incorrectly when using the "hex_dump_to_buffer" call to add data to the buffer. Fix this by only adding what has been added to the buffer in that call instead of what has been added since beginning of buffer. Issue was discovered and discussed during testing of https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=464598 . When a user views any of these files they will see something like: [ 179.355202] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 179.355209] WARNING: at ../lib/vsprintf.c:989 vsnprintf+0x5ec/0x5f0() [ 179.355212] Hardware name: VGN-Z540N [ 179.355213] Modules linked in: i915 drm i2c_algo_bit i2c_core ipv6 acpi_cpufreq cpufreq_userspace cpufreq_powersave cpufreq_ondemand cpufreq_conservative cpufreq_stats freq_table container sbs sbshc arc4 ecb iwlagn iwlcore joydev led_class mac80211 af_packet pcmcia psmouse sony_laptop cfg80211 iTCO_wdt iTCO_vendor_support pcspkr serio_raw rfkill intel_agp video output tpm_infineon tpm tpm_bios button battery yenta_socket rsrc_nonstatic pcmcia_core processor ac evdev ext3 jbd mbcache sr_mod sg cdrom sd_mod ahci libata scsi_mod ehci_hcd uhci_hcd usbcore thermal fan thermal_sys [ 179.355262] Pid: 5449, comm: cat Not tainted 2.6.31-wl-54419-ge881071 #62 [ 179.355264] Call Trace: [ 179.355267] [<ffffffff811ad14c>] ? vsnprintf+0x5ec/0x5f0 [ 179.355271] [<ffffffff81041348>] warn_slowpath_common+0x78/0xd0 [ 179.355275] [<ffffffff810413af>] warn_slowpath_null+0xf/0x20 [ 179.355277] [<ffffffff811ad14c>] vsnprintf+0x5ec/0x5f0 [ 179.355280] [<ffffffff811ad23d>] ? scnprintf+0x5d/0x80 [ 179.355283] [<ffffffff811ad23d>] scnprintf+0x5d/0x80 [ 179.355286] [<ffffffff811aed29>] ? hex_dump_to_buffer+0x189/0x340 [ 179.355290] [<ffffffff810e91d7>] ? __kmalloc+0x207/0x260 [ 179.355303] [<ffffffffa02a02f8>] iwl_dbgfs_nvm_read+0xe8/0x220 [iwlcore] [ 179.355306] [<ffffffff811a9b62>] ? __up_read+0x92/0xb0 [ 179.355310] [<ffffffff810f0988>] vfs_read+0xc8/0x1a0 [ 179.355313] [<ffffffff810f0b50>] sys_read+0x50/0x90 [ 179.355316] [<ffffffff8100bd6b>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b [ 179.355319] ---[ end trace 2383d0d5e0752ca0 ]--- Signed-off-by: Reinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

Though, there are few other issues with suspend/resume in this driver. The intention of calling free_irq() in suspend() was to avoid any possible spurious interrupts (see commit 5b039e681b8c5f30aac9cc04385 "3c59x PM fixes"). But, - On resume, the driver was requesting IRQ just after pci_set_master(), but before vortex_up() (which actually resets 3c59x chips). - Issuing free_irq() on a shared IRQ doesn't guarantee that a buggy HW won't trigger spurious interrupts in another driver that requested the same interrupt. So, if we want to protect from unexpected interrupts, then on suspend we should issue disable_irq(), not free_irq(). Signed-off-by: Anton Vorontsov <avorontsov@ru.mvista.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2009-09-24virtio_net: avoid (most) NETDEV_TX_BUSY by stopping queue early.Rusty Russell
Now we can tell the theoretical capacity remaining in the output queue, virtio_net can waste entries by stopping the queue early. It doesn't work in the case of indirect buffers and kmalloc failure, but that's rare (we could drop the packet in that case, but other drivers return TX_BUSY for similar reasons). For the record, I think this patch reflects poorly on the linux network API. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Cc: Dinesh Subhraveti <dineshs@us.ibm.com>

2009-09-24virtio_net: don't free buffers in xmit ringRusty Russell
The virtio_net driver is complicated by the two methods of freeing old xmit buffers (in addition to freeing old ones at the start of the xmit path). The original code used a 1/10 second timer attached to xmit_free(), reset on every xmit. Before we orphaned skbs on xmit, the transmitting userspace could block with a full socket until the timer fired, the skb destructor was called, and they were re-woken. So we added the VIRTIO_F_NOTIFY_ON_EMPTY feature: supporting devices send an interrupt (even if normally suppressed) on an empty xmit ring which makes us schedule xmit_tasklet(). This was a benchmark win. Unfortunately, VIRTIO_F_NOTIFY_ON_EMPTY makes quite a lot of work: a host which is faster than the guest will fire the interrupt every xmit packet (slowing the guest down further). Attempting mitigation in the host adds overhead of userspace timers (possibly with the additional pain of signals), and risks increasing latency anyway if you get it wrong. In practice, this effect was masked by benchmarks which take advantage of GSO (with its inherent transmit batching), but it's still there. Now we orphan xmitted skbs, the pressure is off: remove both paths and no longer request VIRTIO_F_NOTIFY_ON_EMPTY. Note that the current QEMU will notify us even if we don't negotiate this feature (legal, but suboptimal); a patch is outstanding to improve that. Move the skb_orphan/nf_reset to after we've done the send and notified the other end, for a slight optimization.

2009-09-24virtio_net: return NETDEV_TX_BUSY instead of queueing an extra skb.Rusty Russell
This effectively reverts 99ffc696d10b28580fe93441d627cf290ac4484c "virtio: wean net driver off NETDEV_TX_BUSY". The complexity of queuing an skb (setting a tasklet to re-xmit) is questionable, especially once we get rid of the other reason for the tasklet in the next patch. If the skb won't fit in the tx queue, just return NETDEV_TX_BUSY. This is frowned upon, so a followup patch uses a more complex solution.

2009-09-24virtio_net: skb_orphan() and nf_reset() in xmit path.Rusty Russell
The complex transmit free logic was introduced to avoid hangs on removing the ip_conntrack module and also because drivers aren't generally supposed to keep stale skbs for unbounded times. After some debate, it was decided that while doing skb_orphan() generally is a rat's nest, we can do it in this driver. Following patches take advantage of this.

2009-09-23iwlagn: fix panic in iwl{5000,4965}_rx_reply_txStanislaw Gruszka
In some cases firmware can give us bad value of index in transmit buffers array. This patch add sanity check for such values and return from processing function instantly when it happens. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=521931 Patch was tested by reporter on iwl5000. I think check can be also helpful for 4965. Signed-off-by: Stanislaw Gruszka <sgruszka@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2009-09-23ath9k: Fix RFKILL bugsSujith
This patch fixes 2 issues in RFKILL: * Calling wiphy_rfkill_stop_polling() in ath9k_stop would mean that the driver cannot report HW status when the radio is re-enabled. Move this to ath_detach(). * Calling ath_radio_{enable/disable} without checking the current state results in ath_radio_enable() being called repeatedly for every invocation of rfkill_poll(). This is not needed in any case since wiphy_rfkill_set_hw_state() would call ->stop() if the radio has been disabled.

Use the usb_endpoint_dir_out API function. Note that the use of USB_TYPE_MASK in the original code is incorrect; it results in a test that is always false. The semantic patch that makes this change is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @@ struct usb_endpoint_descriptor *endpoint; expression E; @@ - (endpoint->bEndpointAddress & E) == USB_DIR_OUT + usb_endpoint_dir_out(endpoint) // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> Signed-off-by: John W.

2009-09-23iwlwifi: reduce noise when skb allocation failsReinette Chatre
Replenishment of receive buffers is done in the tasklet handling received frames as well as in a workqueue. When we are in the tasklet we cannot sleep and thus attempt atomic skb allocations. It is generally not a big problem if this fails since iwl_rx_allocate is always followed by a call to iwl_rx_queue_restock which will queue the work to replenish the buffers at a time when sleeping is allowed. We thus add the __GFP_NOWARN to the skb allocation in iwl_rx_allocate to reduce the noise if such an allocation fails while we still have enough buffers. We do maintain the warning and the error message when we are low on buffers to communicate to the user that there is a potential problem with memory availability on system This addresses issue reported upstream in thread "iwlagn: order 2 page allocation failures" in http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.wireless.general/39187 Signed-off-by: Reinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com> Acked-by: Mel Gorman <mel@csn.ul.ie> Signed-off-by: John W.

2009-09-23iwlwifi: do not send sync command while holding spinlockReinette Chatre
commit 10c994ca70e8e94bbc85a5bf13de5911ee8de4d2 "iwlwifi: fix remove key error" fixed an error reported by mac80211 during interface down. The fix involved changing an async command to synchronous. Unfortunately this was inside a spinlock section in which we cannot sleep. Modify the sending of the command back to async. This causes the mac80211 error "mac80211-phy0: failed to remove key (0, ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff) from hardware (-16)." to return. This error is not serious since this occurs during interface down and the keys will be cleared anyway when ucode is unloaded. Having this error message is thus less serious than a potential deadlock introduced when sleeping while holding a spinlock. We will have to find another fix for that error. This is a revert of the abovementioned commit. Signed-off-by: Reinette Chatre <reinette.chatre@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
