2006-01-13[PATCH] device_shutdown can loop if the driver frees itselfMichael Richardson
This patch changes device_shutdown() to use the newly introduced safe reverse list traversal. We experienced loops on system reboot if we had removed and re-inserted our device from the device list. We noticed this problem on PPC405. Our PCI IDE device comes and goes a lot. Our hypothesis was that there was a loop caused by the driver->shutdown freeing memory. It is possible that we do something wrong as well, but being unable to reboot is kind of nasty.

2006-01-13[PATCH] Add bus_type probe, remove, shutdown methods.Russell King
Add bus_type probe, remove and shutdown methods to replace the corresponding methods in struct device_driver. This matches the way we handle the suspend/resume methods. Since the bus methods override the device_driver methods, warn if a device driver is registered whose methods will not be called. The long-term idea is to remove the device_driver methods entirely.

2006-01-12[PATCH] via-velocity: use NETIF_F_IP_CSUM (hardware only support IPv4)John W. Linville
At least some versions of the via-velocity hardware only support checksumming IPv4 frames in hardware. However, the driver is currently setting the NETIF_F_HW_CSUM flag, which indicates support for more than just IPv4. This results in errors when trying to use IPv6 over via-velocity hardware.

2006-01-12[PATCH] bonding: UPDATED hash-table corruption in bond_alb.cJay Vosburgh
I believe I see the race Michael refers to (tlb_choose_channel may set head, which tlb_init_slave clears), although I was not able to reproduce it. I have updated his patch for the current netdev-2.6.git tree and added a version update. His original comment follows: Our systems have been crashing during testing of PCI HotPlug support in the various networking components. We've faulted in the bonding driver due to a bug in bond_alb.c:tlb_clear_slave() In that routine, the last modification to the TLB hash table is made without protection of the lock, allowing a race that can lead tlb_choose_channel() to select an invalid table element. -J Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
2006-01-12[PATCH] wireless/atmel: add IWENCODEEXT, IWAUTH, and association event supportDan Williams
This patch allows the Atmel driver to work correctly with wpa_supplicant and other programs that require some conformance with WEXT-18. It should not affect current behavior of the driver. The patch does four things: 1) Implements SIOCSIWENCODEEXT, SIOCGIWENCODEEXT, SIOCSIWAUTH, and SIOCGIWAUTH calls for unencrypted and WEP operation 2) Accepts zero-filled addresses for SIOCSIWAP, which are legal and should turn off any previous forced WAP address 3) Sends association and de-association events to userspace at most of the appropriate times 4) Fixes erroneous order of CIPHER_SUITE_WEP_* arguments in one location which are actually unused anyway Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dcbw@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>

2006-01-12[PATCH] corruption during e100 MDI register accessODonnell, Michael
We have identified two related bugs in the e100 driver. Both bugs are related to manipulation of the MDI control register. The first problem is that the Ready bit is being ignored when writing to the Control register; we noticed this because the Linux bonding driver would occasionally come to the spurious conclusion that the link was down when querying Link State. It turned out that by failing to wait for a previous command to complete it was selecting what was essentially a random register in the MDI register set. When we added code that waits for the Ready bit (as shown in the patch file below) all such problems ceased. The second problem is that, although access to the MDI registers involves multiple steps which must not be intermixed, nothing was defending against two or more threads attempting simultaneous access. The most obvious situation where such interference could occur involves the watchdog versus ioctl paths, but there are probably others, so we recommend the locking shown in our patch file.
