Gabriel Paubert authored
In this driver, the default ethernet address is first set by by calling eth_port_uc_addr_get() which reads the relevant registers of the corresponding port as initially set by firmware. However that function used the port_num field accessed through the private area of net_dev before it was set. The result was that one board I have ended up with the unicast address set to 00:00:00:00:00:00 (only port 1 is connected on this board). The problem appeared after commit 84dd619e. This patch fixes the bug by setting mp->port_num prior to calling eth_port_uc_get_addr().

The original vendor driver contained a private ether_crc_le() function that produced an inverted crc. When we changed to the kernel version of ether_crc_le(), we neglected to undo the inversion. Let's do it now. Discovered by and patch proffered by Jose Alberto Reguero.

Correctly detect when TSO should be used on transmit by looking at the skb->gso_size rather than seeing if the frame was larger than our MTU. The old method causes problems when a host with a large (jumbo) MTU is sending to a host with a small (standard) MTU.

The user can generate console output if they cause do_mmap() to fail during sys_io_setup(). This was seen in a regression test that does exactly that by spinning calling mmap() until it gets -ENOMEM before calling io_setup(). We don't need this printk at all, just remove it.

Rafael J. Wysocki authored
This reverts commit 94985134 and insteads removes the WARN_ON() that caused that commit in the first place. The problem is that we call disable_nonboot_cpus() in swsusp before powering down the system in order to avoid triggering the WARN_ON() in arch/x86_64/kernel/acpi/sleep.c:init_low_mapping() and this doesn't work well on Thomas' system. So instead, remove the WARN_ON() in arch/x86_64/kernel/acpi/sleep.c: init_low_mapping(), which triggers every time during the suspend to disk in the platform mode, as the potential problem it is related to doesn't seem to occur in practice. [ I think we might want to disallow the case of multiple users of that mm, or something. Normally, playing with the current process page tables on the current CPU should be fine as long as we don't have other threads using those tables at the same time.. Anyway, not pretty, but better than the warning or the lockup - Linus ] Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

I2O subsystem has been broken in mainstream several months ago (after 2.6.18). Commit 4aff5e23 from Jens Axboe split struct request ->flags into two parts: cmd_type and cmd_flags. In i2o layer this patch has replaced flag REQ_SPECIAL by the according cmd_type. However i2o has used REQ_SPECIAL not as command type but as driver-specific flag for the debug purposes. As result all i2o requests have type "special" now, are not processed to the hardware and fail with I/O error: i2o/hda:<3>Buffer I/O error on device i2o/hda, logical block 0 Buffer I/O error on device i2o/hda, logical block 0 Buffer I/O error on device i2o/hda, logical block 0 unable to read partition table block-osm: device added (TID: 207): i2o/hda The following patch removes the extra debug checks without any drawbacks and restores the normal driver's work.

I've been seeing some odd NTP behavior recently on a few boxes and finally narrowed it down to time_offset overflowing when converted to SHIFT_UPDATE units (which was a side effect from my HZfreeNTP patch).

This patch uses MAX_REG_NR consistently to refer to the register file size. FRAME_SIZE isn't sufficient because on x86_64, it is smaller than the ptrace register file size. MAX_REG_NR was introduced as a consistent way to get the number of registers, but wasn't used everywhere it should be. When this causes a problem, it makes PTRACE_SETREGS fail on x86_64 because of a corrupted segment register value in the known-good register file. The patch also adds a register dump at that point in case there are any future problems here.

On Bob's machine clocksource is selecting PIT over the ACPI PM timer, because he has the PIIX4 bug. That bug drops the ACPI PM timers rating to the same as the PIT, so that's why you're getting the PIT. Realistically, the PIT is much slower then even the triple read ACPI PM, so the de-ranking code is probably dropping it too far. So don't drop ACPI PM quite so low if we see the PIIX4 bug.

Commit d720bc4b partially removed a private implementation of baud speed decoding. However it doesn't seem to be complete: after the speed is decoded, it is still being used as an index to a local speed table (array overrun, no doubt).
