IEEE 802.3 clause 45 specifies the MDIO interface and registers for use in 10G and other PHYs, similar to the MII management interface. PHYs may have up to 32 MMDs corresponding to different sub-layers and functions, each with up to 65536 registers. These are addressed by PRTAD (similar to the MII PHY address) and DEVAD.

On several mv643xx_eth hardware versions, the two 64bit mib counters for 'good octets received' and 'good octets sent' are actually 32bit counters, and reading from the upper half of the register has the same effect as reading from the lower half of the register: an atomic read-and-clear of the entire 32bit counter value. This can under heavy traffic occasionally lead to small numbers being added to the upper half of the 64bit mib counter even though no 32bit wrap has occured. Since we poll the mib counters at least every 30 seconds anyway, we might as well just skip the reads of the upper halves of the hardware counters without breaking the stats, which this patch does.

Currently, when OOM occurs during rx ring refill, mv643xx_eth will get into an infinite loop, due to the refill function setting the OOM bit but not clearing the 'rx refill needed' bit for this queue, while the calling function (the NAPI poll handler) will call the refill function in a loop until the 'rx refill needed' bit goes off, without checking the OOM bit. This patch fixes this by checking the OOM bit in the NAPI poll handler before attempting to do rx refill. This means that once OOM occurs, we won't try to do any memory allocations again until the next invocation of the poll handler. While we're at it, change the OOM flag to be a single bit instead of one bit per receive queue since OOM is a system state rather than a per-queue state, and cancel the OOM timer on entry to the NAPI poll handler if it's running to prevent it from firing when we've already come out of OOM.

In "mac80211: correct wext transmit power handler" I fixed the wext handler, but forgot to make the default of the user_power_level -1 (aka "auto"), so that now the transmit power is always set to 0, causing associations to time out and similar problems since we're transmitting with very little power. Correct this by correcting the default user_power_level to -1. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Bisected-by: Niel Lambrechts <niel.lambrechts@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

After experimenting with kexec with the last merges after 2.6.29, I've had some problems when probing e100. It would not read the eeprom. After some bisects, I realized this has been like that since forever (at least 2.6.18). The problem is that shutdown is doing the same thing that suspend does and puts the device in D3 state. I couldn't find a way to get the device back to a sane state in the probe function. So, based on some similar patches from Rafael J. Wysocki for e1000, e1000e, and ixgbe, I wrote this one for e100.

The x_tables are organized with a table structure and a per-cpu copies of the counters and rules. On older kernels there was a reader/writer lock per table which was a performance bottleneck. In 2.6.30-rc, this was converted to use RCU and the counters/rules which solved the performance problems for do_table but made replacing rules much slower because of the necessary RCU grace period. This version uses a per-cpu set of spinlocks and counters to allow to table processing to proceed without the cache thrashing of a global reader lock and keeps the same performance for table updates.

drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl3945-base.c:1415: error: __ksymtab_iwl3945_rx_queue_reset causes a section type conflict I am pretty sure that this is a compiler bug, so not to worry. However, as far as I can see, iwl-3945.o (the only user) and iwl3945-base.o are always linked into the same module, so the EXPORT_SYMBOL (which causes the problem) should not be needed. Correct?

The Bluetooth 2.1 specification introduced four different security modes that can be mapped using Legacy Pairing and Simple Pairing. With the usage of Simple Pairing it is required that all connections (except the ones for SDP) are encrypted. So even the low security requirement mandates an encrypted connection when using Simple Pairing. When using Legacy Pairing (for Bluetooth 2.0 devices and older) this is not required since it causes interoperability issues. To support this properly the low security requirement translates into different host controller transactions depending if Simple Pairing is supported or not. However in case of Simple Pairing the command to switch on encryption after a successful authentication is not triggered for the low security mode. This patch fixes this and actually makes the logic to differentiate between Simple Pairing and Legacy Pairing a lot simpler.

The Bluetooth stack uses a reference counting for all established ACL links and if no user (L2CAP connection) is present, the link will be terminated to save power. The problem part is the dedicated pairing when using Legacy Pairing (Bluetooth 2.0 and before). At that point no user is present and pairing attempts will be disconnected within 10 seconds or less. In previous kernel version this was not a problem since the disconnect timeout wasn't triggered on incoming connections for the first time. However this caused issues with broken host stacks that kept the connections around after dedicated pairing. When the support for Simple Pairing got added, the link establishment procedure needed to be changed and now causes issues when using Legacy Pairing When using Simple Pairing it is possible to do a proper reference counting of ACL link users. With Legacy Pairing this is not possible since the specification is unclear in some areas and too many broken Bluetooth devices have already been deployed. So instead of trying to deal with all the broken devices, a special pairing timeout will be introduced that increases the timeout to 60 seconds when pairing is triggered. If a broken devices now puts the stack into an unforeseen state, the worst that happens is the disconnect timeout triggers after 120 seconds instead of 4 seconds. This allows successful pairings with legacy and broken devices now. Based on a report by Johan Hedberg <johan.hedberg@nokia.com> Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>

cacheable_memzero() is completely overkill for the clearing out the FCB block which is only 8-bytes. The compiler should easily optimize this with memset.
