* [PATCH] SMACK support for mkissRalf Baechle2005-10-182-31/+148
| | | | | | | | | | | | | SMACK (Stuttgart Modified Amateurradio CRC KISS) is a KISS variant that uses CRC16 checksums to secure data transfers between the modem and host. It's also used to communicate over a pty to applications such as Wampes. Patches for Linux 2.4 by Thomas Osterried DL9SAU, upgraded to the latest mkiss 2.6 mkiss driver by me.

* [PATCH] rcu in bpqether driver.Ralf Baechle2005-10-181-6/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | From Suzanne Wood <suzannew@cs.pdx.edu>: Clarify RCU implementation in bpqether.c. Because bpq_new_device() calls list_add_rcu() and bpq_free_device() calls list_del_rcu(), substitute list_for_each_entry_rcu() for list_for_each_entry() in bpq_get_ax25_dev() and in bpq_seq_start(). Add rcu dereference protection in bpq_seq_next(). The rcu_read_lock()/unlock() in bpq_device_event() are removed because netdev event handlers are called with RTNL locking in place. FYI: bpq_free_device() calls list_del_rcu() which, per list.h, requires synchronize_rcu() which can block or call_rcu() or call_rcu_bh() which cannot block. Herbert Xu notes that synchronization is done here by unregister_netdevice(). This calls synchronize_net() which in turn uses synchronize_rcu().

* [PATCH] S2io: Offline diagnostics fixesravinandan.arakali@neterion.com2005-10-182-80/+162
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes the following bugs with offline diagnostics code(run with "ethtool -t"). 1. After running offline diagnostics, adapter would report corrupted packets on receive. This was because of adapter not being brought out of "RLDRAM test mode". 2. Current EEPROM test works only for Xframe I. Since Xframe II uses different interface(SPI), support for this interface has been added. Also, since SPI supports write access to all areas of EEPROM, negative testing is done only for Xframe I. 3. Return values from subfunctions of offline diagnostics have been corrected. 4. In register test, expected value from rx_queue_cfg register is made to depend on adapter type. 5. After the test, need to restore values at EEPROM offsets 0x4F0 and 0x7F0. These locations were modified as part of test. 6. Use macro SPECIAL_REG_WRITE for write access to mc_rldram_test_ctrl register. Also, couple of unnecessary writes to mc_rldram_test_ctrl have been removed. Signed-off-by: Ravinandan Arakali <ravinandan.arakali@neterion.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>

It turns out that to be %100 safe we do need to be able to translate OBP mappings in our TLB miss handlers early. In order not to eat up a lot of kernel image memory with static page tables, just use the translations array in the OBP TLB miss handlers. That solves the bulk of the problem. Furthermore, to make sure the OBP TLB miss path will work even before the fixed MMU globals are loaded, explicitly load %g1 to TLB_SFSR at the beginning of the i-TLB and d-TLB miss handlers. To ease the OBP TLB miss walking of the prom_trans[] array, we sort it then delete all of the non-OBP entries in there (for example, there are entries for the kernel image itself which we're not interested in at all). We also save about 32K of kernel image size with this change. Not a bad side effect :-) There are still some reasons why trampoline.S can't use the setup_trap_table() yet. The most noteworthy are: 1) OBP boots secondary processors with non-bias'd stack for some reason. This is easily fixed by using a small bootup stack in the kernel image explicitly for this purpose. 2) Doing a firmware call via the normal C call prom_set_trap_table() goes through the whole OBP enter/exit sequence that saves and restores OBP and Linux kernel state in the MMUs. This path unfortunately does a "flush %g6" while loading up the OBP locked TLB entries for the firmware call. If we setup the %g6 in the trampoline.S code properly, that is in the PAGE_OFFSET linear mapping, but we're not on the kernel trap table yet so those addresses won't translate properly. One idea is to do a by-hand firmware call like we do in the early bootup code and elsewhere here in trampoline.S But this fails as well, as aparently the secondary processors are not booted with OBP's special locked TLB entries loaded. These are necessary for the firwmare to processes TLB misses correctly up until the point where we take over the trap table. This does need to be resolved at some point. Signed-off-by: David S.

This means that the inner MTU is smaller than it needs be. Worse yet, given an input MTU which is a multiple of 4 it will always produce an estimate which is not a multiple of 4. For example, given a standard ESP/3DES/MD5 transform and an MTU of 1500, the resulting MTU for transport mode is 1462 when it should be 1464. The reason for this is because IP header lengths are always a multiple of 4 for IPv4 and 8 for IPv6. * Ensure that the block size is at least 4. This is required by RFC2406 and corresponds to what the esp_output function does. At the moment this only affects crypto_null as its block size is 1.

| | * | | [NETFILTER] nfnetlink: use highest bit of nfa_type to indicate nested TLVHarald Welte2005-10-102-6/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As Henrik Nordstrom pointed out, all our efforts with "split endian" (i.e. host byte order tags, net byte order values) are useless, unless a parser can determine whether an attribute is nested or not. This patch steals the highest bit of nfattr.nfa_type to indicate whether the data payload contains a nested nfattr (1) or not (0). This will break userspace compatibility, but luckily no kernel with nfnetlink was released so far. Signed-off-by: Harald Welte <laforge@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

| * | | | [PATCH] ppc32: Tell userland about lack of standard TBBenjamin Herrenschmidt2005-10-122-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Glibc is about to get some new high precision timer stuff that relies on the standard timebase of the PPC architecture. However, some (rare & old) CPUs do not have such timebase and it is a bit annoying to have your stuff just crash because you are running on the wrong CPU... This exposes to userland a CPU feature bit that tells that the current processor doesn't have a standard timebase. It's negative logic so that glibc will still "just work" on older kernels (it will just be unhappy on those old CPUs but that doesn't really matter as distro tend to update glibc & kernel at the same time).
