Rajesh Shah 2f523b1590 [PATCH] acpi hotplug: fix slot power-down problem with acpiphp
Earlier I reported that Matthew's acpiphp rewrite had problem in powering down
slot on my i386 system.  The following patch is needed to get the acpiphp
rewrite properly powering down the slot.

Rajesh Shah 364d5094a4 [PATCH] acpi hotplug: clean up notify handlers on acpiphp unload
A root bridge may not have directly attached hotpluggable slots under it.
Instead, it may have p2p bridges with slots under it.  In this case, we need
to clean up the p2p bridges and slots properly too.  Patch below applies on
top of the original patch, and fixes this problem.  Without this, acpiphp
leaves behind notify handlers on module unload, and subsequent module load
attempts don't work properly too.  Patch was tested on an ia64 Tiger4 box.

Rajesh Shah 42f49a6ae5 [PATCH] acpi hotplug: convert acpiphp to use generic resource code
This patch converts acpiphp to use the generic PCI resource assignment code.
It's quite large, but most of it is deleting the acpiphp_pci and acpiphp_res
files.  It's tested on an hp Integrity rx8620 (which won't work without this
patch).  Testers with other hardware welcomed.

Create new interfaces to recursively add an acpi namespace object to the acpi

ACPI based hotplug of a root bridge hierarchy where the add operation must be
performed first and the start operation must be performed separately after the
hot-plugged devices have been properly configured.

Rajesh Shah 542df5de56 [PATCH] acpi bridge hotadd: Remove hot-plugged devices that could not be allocated resources
When hot-plugging an I/O hierarchy that contains many bridges and leaf
devices, it's possible that there are not enough resources to start all the
device present.  If we fail to assign a resource, clear the corresponding
value in the pci_dev structure, so other code can take corrective action.

Rajesh Shah 091ca9f063 [PATCH] acpi bridge hotadd: Make the PCI remove routines safe for failed hot-plug
When a root bridge hierarchy is hot-plugged, resource requirements for the new
devices may be greater than what the root bridge is decoding.  In this case,
we want to remove devices that did not get needed resources.  These devices
have been scanned into bus specific lists but not yet added to the global
device list.  Make sure the pci remove functions can handle this case.

normal pci bus search functions for the hot-plug bridges/buses.

Rajesh Shah 71c3511c22 [PATCH] acpi bridge hotadd: Make pcibios_fixup_bus() hot-plug safe
PCI scan code calls the arch specific pcibios_fixup_bus() each time it scans a
new bridge.  For root bridge hot-plug, the bridge and it's attached devices
may not have been configured properly yet, so it's not safe to claim those
resources at this time.

This code goes away when we clean up the way pci resources are claimed (in
pci_enable_device()), so this is only a stopgap fix.

Rajesh Shah fab3fb0ac8 [PATCH] acpi bridge hotadd: Fix pci_enable_device() for p2p bridges
When checking if a PCI to PCI bridge should be enabled to decode memory and/or
IO resources, we need to look at all device resources not just the first 6.
This is needed to allow PCI bridges to pass down memory and IO accesses to
child devices even when the bridge itself does not consume resources in its
PCI BARs.

Rajesh Shah c431ada45d [PATCH] acpi bridge hotadd: ACPI based root bridge hot-add
When you hot-plug a (root) bridge hierarchy, it may have p2p bridges and
devices attached to it that have not been configured by firmware.  In this
case, we need to configure the devices before starting them.  This patch
separates device start from device scan so that we can introduce the
configuration step in the middle.

I kept the existing semantics for pci_scan_bus() since there are a huge number
of callers to that function.

Also, I have no way of testing the changes I made to the parisc files, so this
needs review by those folks.  Sorry for the massive cross-post, this touches
files in many different places.

jayalk@intworks.biz 120bb4246a [PATCH] PCI Allow OutOfRange PIRQ table address
I updated this to remove unnecessary variable initialization, make
check_routing be inline only and not __init, switch to strtoul, and
formatting fixes as per Randy Dunlap's recommendations.

I updated this to change pirq_table_addr to a long, and to add a warning
msg if the PIRQ table wasn't found at the specified address, as per thread
with Matthew Wilcox.

In our hardware situation, the BIOS is unable to store or generate it's PIRQ
table in the F0000h-100000h standard range. This patch adds a pci kernel
parameter, pirqaddr to allow the bootloader (or BIOS based loader) to inform
the kernel where the PIRQ table got stored. A beneficial side-effect is that,
if one's BIOS uses a static address each time for it's PIRQ table, then
pirqaddr can be used to avoid the $pirq search through that address block each
time at boot for normal PIRQ BIOSes.

pageexec 4da62fc70d [IPVS]: Fix for overflows
From: <pageexec@freemail.hu>

$subject was fixed in 2.4 already, 2.6 needs it as well.

The impact of the bugs is a kernel stack overflow and privilege escalation
from CAP_NET_ADMIN via the IP_VS_SO_SET_STARTDAEMON/IP_VS_SO_GET_DAEMON
ioctls.  People running with 'root=all caps' (i.e., most users) are not
really affected (there's nothing to escalate), but SELinux and similar
users should take it seriously if they grant CAP_NET_ADMIN to other users.

This is a fix for the interrupt handler in the defxx driver to use
irqreturn_t.  Beside the obvious fix of returning a proper status at all,
it actually checks board registers as appropriate for determining if an
interrupt has been recorded in the bus-specific interface logic.

The patch also includes an obvious one-line fix for SET_NETDEV_DEV needed
for the EISA variation, for which I've decided there is no point in sending
separately.

David S. Miller d470e3b483 [NETLINK]: Fix two socket hashing bugs.
1) netlink_release() should only decrement the hash entry
   count if the socket was actually hashed.

   This was causing hash->entries to underflow, which
   resulting in all kinds of troubles.

   On 64-bit systems, this would cause the following
   conditional to erroneously trigger:

	err = -ENOMEM;
	if (BITS_PER_LONG > 32 && unlikely(hash->entries >= UINT_MAX))
		goto err;

2) netlink_autobind() needs to propagate the error return from
   netlink_insert().  Otherwise, callers will not see the error
   as they should and thus try to operate on a socket with a zero pid,
   which is very bad.

   However, it should not propagate -EBUSY.  If two threads race
   to autobind the socket, that is fine.  This is consistent with the
   autobind behavior in other protocols.

   So bug #1 above, combined with this one, resulted in hangs
   on netlink_sendmsg() calls to the rtnetlink socket.  We'd try
   to do the user sendmsg() with the socket's pid set to zero,
   later we do a socket lookup using that pid (via the value we
   stashed away in NETLINK_CB(skb).pid), but that won't give us the
   user socket, it will give us the rtnetlink socket.  So when we
   try to wake up the receive queue, we dive back into rtnetlink_rcv()
   which tries to recursively take the rtnetlink semaphore.

Thanks to Jakub Jelink for providing backtraces.  Also, thanks to
Herbert Xu for supplying debugging patches to help track this down,
and also finding a mistake in an earlier version of this fix.

Andreas Mohr 93ad4fb04f [PATCH] pcnet_cs.c: IRQ handler optimization
During some performance diagnostics I stumbled on this slightly wasteful
code in pcnet_cs.c which I made the patch included at the bottom for (two
minor comment fixes included).

Improvement:
instead of *always* calculating
lea    0x2c0(%edx),%ebx
and then additionally doing the
mov    %edx,0xc0(%ebx)
addition *if we need it*,

we now do the *whole* calculation of
mov    %edx,0x380(%ebx)
*only* if we need it.
This even manages to save us a whole 16-byte alignment buffer loss
in this compilation case.

Result: slightly improves IRQ handler performance in both shared and
non-shared IRQ case, which should make my rusty P3/700 a slight bit happier.

Thank you for your support,

Andreas Mohr

Magnus Damm 5ccabb9b45 [PATCH] arlan: module parameter fixes
Make sure the code compiles with and without ARLAN_ENTRY_EXIT_DEBUGGING.
Only provide parameter descriptions when parameters are defined.
Remove "arlan_"-prefix to shape up built-in parameter names:

arlan.arlan_debug -> arlan.debug
arlan.arlan_EEPROM_bad -> arlan.EEPROM_bad
arlan.arlan_entry_and_exit_debug -> arlan.entry_and_exit_debug
arlan.arlan_entry_debug -> arlan.entry_debug

Stephen Hemminger 97f568d8e3 8139cp: safer spin loop for get_statistics
The spin loop in 8139cp is limited to 100 iterations when pulling hardware
stats. There is no allowance for processor speed so on a fast machine, the
stats may not be available that fast. Also, if the board doesn't return
soon enough make sure turn the address back off to prevent later updates
when memory has gone away.

Jay Vosburgh 169a3e6663 bonding: xor/802.3ad improved slave hash
Add support for alternate slave selection algorithms to bonding
balance-xor and 802.3ad modes.  Default mode (what we have now: xor of
MAC addresses) is "layer2", new choice is "layer3+4", using IP and port
information for hashing to select peer.

Originally submitted by Jason Gabler for balance-xor mode;
modified by Jay Vosburgh to additionally support 802.3ad mode.  Jason's
original comment is as follows:

The attached patch to the Linux Etherchannel Bonding driver modifies the
driver's "balance-xor" mode as follows:

      - alternate hashing policy support for mode 2
        * Added kernel parameter "xmit_policy" to allow the specification
          of different hashing policies for mode 2.  The original mode 2
          policy is the default, now found in xmit_hash_policy_layer2().
        * Added xmit_hash_policy_layer34()

This patch was inspired by hashing policies implemented by Cisco,
Foundry and IBM, which are explained in
Foundry documentation found at:
http://www.foundrynet.com/services/documentation/sribcg/Trunking.html#112750
