2008-11-06md: linear: Fix a division by zero bug for very small arrays.Andre Noll
We currently oops with a divide error on starting a linear software raid array consisting of at least two very small (< 500K) devices. The bug is caused by the calculation of the hash table size which tries to compute sector_div(sz, base) with "base" being zero due to the small size of the component devices of the array. Fix this by requiring the hash spacing to be at least one which implies that also "base" is non-zero. This bug has existed since about 2.6.14.

2008-11-06md: revert the recent addition of a call to the BLKRRPART ioctl.NeilBrown
It turns out that it is only safe to call blkdev_ioctl when the device is actually open (as ->bd_disk is set to NULL on last close). And it is quite possible for do_md_stop to be called when the device is not open. So discard the call to blkdev_ioctl(BLKRRPART) which was added in commit 934d9c23b4c7e31840a895ba4b7e88d6413c81f3 It is just as easy to call this ioctl from userspace when needed (on mdadm -S) so leave it out of the kernel Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
2008-11-06SMSC LAN911x and LAN921x vendor driverSteve Glendinning
Attached is a driver for SMSC's LAN911x and LAN921x families of embedded ethernet controllers. There is an existing smc911x driver in the tree; this is intended to replace it. Dustin McIntire (the author of the smc911x driver) has expressed his support for switching to this driver. This driver contains workarounds for all known hardware issues, and has been tested on all flavours of the chip on multiple architectures.

2008-11-06bonding: alternate agg selection policies for 802.3adJay Vosburgh
This patch implements alternative aggregator selection policies for 802.3ad. The existing policy, now termed "stable," selects the active aggregator by greatest bandwidth, and only reselects a new aggregator if the active aggregator is entirely disabled (no more ports or all ports down). This patch adds two new policies: bandwidth and count, selecting the active aggregator by total bandwidth (like the stable policy) or by the number of ports in the aggregator, respectively. These two policies also differ from the stable policy in that they will reselect the active aggregator when availability-related changes occur in the bond (e.g., link state change). This permits "gang failover" within 802.3ad, allowing redundant aggregators along parallel paths to always maintain the "best" aggregator as the active aggregator (rather than having to wait for the active to entirely fail). This patch also updates the driver version to 3.5.0. Signed-off-by: Jay Vosburgh <fubar@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>
2008-11-06bonding: Fix ALB mode to balance traffic on VLANsJay Vosburgh
The current ALB function that processes incoming ARPs does not handle traffic for VLANs configured above bonding. This causes traffic on those VLANs to all be assigned the same slave. This patch corrects that misbehavior by locating the bonding interface nested below the VLAN interface.

2008-11-06bonding: send IPv6 neighbor advertisement on failoverBrian Haley
This patch adds better IPv6 failover support for bonding devices, especially when in active-backup mode and there are only IPv6 addresses configured, as reported by Alex Sidorenko. - Creates a new file, net/drivers/bonding/bond_ipv6.c, for the IPv6-specific routines. Both regular bonds and VLANs over bonds are supported. - Adds a new tunable, num_unsol_na, to limit the number of unsolicited IPv6 Neighbor Advertisements that are sent on a failover event. Default is 1. - Creates two new IPv6 neighbor discovery functions: ndisc_build_skb() ndisc_send_skb() These were required to support VLANs since we have to be able to add the VLAN id to the skb since ndisc_send_na() and friends shouldn't be asked to do this. These two routines are basically __ndisc_send() split into two pieces, in a slightly different order. - Updates Documentation/networking/bonding.txt and bumps the rev of bond support to 3.4.0. On failover, this new code will generate one packet: - An unsolicited IPv6 Neighbor Advertisement, which helps the switch learn that the address has moved to the new slave. Testing has shown that sending just the NA results in pretty good behavior when in active-back mode, I saw no lost ping packets for example.

2008-11-05net: Guaranetee the proper ordering of the loopback device.Eric W. Biederman
I was recently hunting a bug that occurred in network namespace cleanup. In looking at the code it became apparrent that we have and will continue to have cases where if we have anything going on in a network namespace there will be assumptions that the loopback device is present. Things like sending igmp unsubscribe messages when we bring down network devices invokes the routing code which assumes that at least the loopback driver is present. Therefore to avoid magic initcall ordering hackery that is hard to follow and hard to get right insert a call to register the loopback device directly from net_dev_init(). This guarantes that the loopback device is the first device registered and the last network device to go away. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-11-05[MTD] [NOR] Fix cfi_send_gen_cmd handling of x16 devices in x8 mode (v4)Eric W. Biederman
For "unlock" cycles to 16bit devices in 8bit compatibility mode we need to use the byte addresses 0xaaa and 0x555. These effectively match the word address 0x555 and 0x2aa, except the latter has its low bit set. Most chips don't care about the value of the 'A-1' pin in x8 mode, but some -- like the ST M29W320D -- do. So we need to be careful to set it where appropriate. cfi_send_gen_cmd is only ever passed addresses where the low byte is 0x00, 0x55 or 0xaa. Of those, only addresses ending 0xaa are affected by this patch, by masking in the extra low bit when the device is known to be in compatibility mode. [dwmw2: Do it only when (cmd_ofs & 0xff) == 0xaa] v4: Fix stupid typo in cfi_build_cmd_addr that failed to compile I'm writing this patch way to late at night. v3: Bring all of the work back into cfi_build_cmd_addr including calling of map_bankwidth(map) and cfi_interleave(cfi) So every caller doesn't need to. v2: Only modified the address if we our device_type is larger than our bus width.

2008-11-04sata_nv: fix generic, nf2/3 detection regressionTejun Heo
All three flavors of sata_nv's are different in how their hardreset behaves. * generic: Hardreset is not reliable. Link often doesn't come online after hardreset. * nf2/3: A little bit better - link comes online with longer debounce timing. However, nf2/3 can't reliable wait for the first D2H Register FIS, so it can't wait for device readiness or classify the device after hardreset. Follow-up SRST required. * ck804: Hardreset finally works. The core layer change to prefer hardreset and follow up changes exposed the above issues and caused various detection regressions for all three flavors. This patch, hopefully, fixes all the known issues and should make sata_nv error handling more reliable. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>

2008-11-04sata_promise: add ATA engine reset to reset opsMikael Pettersson
Promise ATA engines need to be reset when errors occur. That's currently done for errors detected by sata_promise itself, but it's not done for errors like timeouts detected outside of the low-level driver. The effect of this omission is that a timeout tends to result in a sequence of failed COMRESETs after which libata EH gives up and disables the port. At that point the port's ATA engine hangs and even reloading the driver will not resume it. To fix this, make sata_promise override ->hardreset on SATA ports with code which calls pdc_reset_port() on the port in question before calling libata's hardreset. PATA ports don't use ->hardreset, so for those we override ->softreset instead. Signed-off-by: Mikael Pettersson <mikpe@it.uu.se> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>

Commit 12dac0756d357325b107fe6ec24921ec38661839 ("tg3: adapt tg3 to use reworked PCI PM code") introduced the new PCI PM API to the tg3 driver. The patch was understandably conservative, so this patch elaborates on that work. The patch starts by creating a single point in tg3_set_power_state() to decide whether or not to enable WOL. The rest of the code in tg3_set_power_state() was then pivoted to use the result of this decision. The patch then makes sure the device is allowed to wakeup before reporting whether or not WOL is currently enabled.

2008-11-03tg3: Preserve DASH connectivity when WOL enabledMatt Carlson
DASH firmware runs on the APE side of the chip, but it requires a few MAC to be programmed correctly. When WOL is enabled and management firmware is disabled, incoming packets are evaluated and discarded at the chip's rule processor. When management firmware is enabled, the hardware must be informed that there are agents further up the stack that still use the incoming frames. Normally management firmware will configure the MAC correctly on its own, but there can be cases where the setting could get clobbered by the driver. The first hunk of this patch preserves this setting. The second hunk of this patch wipes out the driver present signature of the APE memory space. By doing so, the DASH firmware can assume driver absent behavior. Signed-off-by: Matt Carlson <mcarlson@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Chan <mchan@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-11-03mv643xx_eth: fix SMI bus access timeoutsLennert Buytenhek
The mv643xx_eth mii bus implementation uses wait_event_timeout() to wait for SMI completion interrupts. If wait_event_timeout() would return zero, mv643xx_eth would conclude that the SMI access timed out, but this is not necessarily true -- wait_event_timeout() can also return zero in the case where the SMI completion interrupt did happen in time but where it took longer than the requested timeout for the process performing the SMI access to be scheduled again. This would lead to occasional SMI access timeouts when the system would be under heavy load. The fix is to ignore the return value of wait_event_timeout(), and to re-check the SMI done bit after wait_event_timeout() returns to determine whether or not the SMI access timed out.
