* The ixp2000 driver for the enp2611 was developed on a board withLennert Buytenhek2006-05-153-10/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | three gigabit ports, but some enp2611 models only have two ports (and only one onboard PM3386.) The current driver assumes there are always three ports and so it doesn't work on the two-port version of the board at all. This patch adds a bit of logic to the enp2611 driver to limit the number of ports to 2 if the second PM3386 isn't detected.

* Revert "[PATCH] i386: export: memory more than 4G through /proc/iomem"Linus Torvalds2006-05-131-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit 10dbe196a8da6b3196881269c6639c0ec11c36cb. The resource struct is still 32-bit, so trying to save a 64-bit memory size there obviously won't work. When we merge the 64-bit resource series, we can re-enable this.

* Alternative fix for MMC oops on unmount after removalLinus Torvalds2006-05-121-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Make sure to clear the driverfs_dev pointer when we do del_gendisk() (on disk removal), so that other users that may still have a ref to the disk won't try to use the stale pointer. Also move the KOBJ_REMOVE uevent handler up, so that the uevent still has access to the driverfs_dev data. This all should hopefully fix the problems with MMC umounts after device removals that caused commit 56cf6504fc1c0c221b82cebc16a444b684140fb7 and its reversal (1a2acc9e9214699a99389e323e6686e9e0e2ca67).

| * [NEIGH]: Fix IP-over-ATM and ARP interaction.Simon Kelley2006-05-123-3/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The classical IP over ATM code maintains its own IPv4 <-> <ATM stuff> ARP table, using the standard neighbour-table code. The neigh_table_init function adds this neighbour table to a linked list of all neighbor tables which is used by the functions neigh_delete() neigh_add() and neightbl_set(), all called by the netlink code. Once the ATM neighbour table is added to the list, there are two tables with family == AF_INET there, and ARP entries sent via netlink go into the first table with matching family. This is indeterminate and often wrong. To see the bug, on a kernel with CLIP enabled, create a standard IPv4 ARP entry by pinging an unused address on a local subnet. Then attempt to complete that entry by doing ip neigh replace <ip address> lladdr <some mac address> nud reachable Looking at the ARP tables by using ip neigh show will reveal two ARP entries for the same address. One of these can be found in /proc/net/arp, and the other in /proc/net/atm/arp. This patch adds a new function, neigh_table_init_no_netlink() which does everything the neigh_table_init() does, except add the table to the netlink all-arp-tables chain. In addition neigh_table_init() has a check that all tables on the chain have a distinct address family. The init call in clip.c is changed to call neigh_table_init_no_netlink(). Since ATM ARP tables are rather more complicated than can currently be handled by the available rtattrs in the netlink protocol, no functionality is lost by this patch, and non-ATM ARP manipulation via netlink is rescued. A more complete solution would involve a rtattr for ATM ARP entries and some way for the netlink code to give neigh_add and friends more information than just address family with which to find the correct ARP table. [ I've changed the assertion checking in neigh_table_init() to not use BUG_ON() while holding neigh_tbl_lock. Instead we remember that we found an existing tbl with the same family, and after dropping the lock we'll give a diagnostic kernel log message and a stack dump. -DaveM ] Signed-off-by: Simon Kelley <simon@thekelleys.org.uk> Signed-off-by: David S.

The specification states that the bit can be cleared by writing a 1 to it, but under certain circumstances it is possible for this bit to not clear. Writing a 0 to the bit resets the internal state machine and clears the issue. Since all writable bits in ACBST are W1C bits (write-one-to-clear) the second write doesn't affect any other logic except the buggy NEGACK state machine. The second write clears an internal register which is responsible for "overwriting" the NEGACK bit in ACBST.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit 56cf6504fc1c0c221b82cebc16a444b684140fb7. Both Erik Mouw and Andrew Vasquez independently pinpointed this commit as causing problems, where the slab cache for a driver is never released (most obviously causing problems when immediately re-loading that driver, resulting in a "kmem_cache_create: duplicate cache <xyz>" message, but it can also cause other trouble). James Bottomley dug into it, and reports: "OK, here's the scoop. The problem patch adds a get of driverfs_dev in add_disk(), but doesn't put it again until disk_release() (which occurs on final put_disk() of the gendisk). However, in SCSI, the driverfs_dev is the sdev_gendev. That means there's a reference held on sdev_gendev until final disk put. Unfortunately, we use the driver model driver_remove to trigger del_gendisk (which removes the gendisk from visibility and decrements the refcount), so we've introduced an unbreakable deadlock in the reference counting with this. I suggest simply reversing this patch at the moment. If Russell and Jens can tell me what they're trying to do I'll see if there's another way to do it." so hereby the patch gets reverted, waiting for a better fix.

In Gerd's case, it causes the test for buggy UARTs to give false positives, incorrectly identifying ports as buggy when they are not. Moreover, if we unconditionally enable the interrupt, and the port is sharing it's interrupt with other ports, there is the very real possibility that we'll cause an interrupt storm. (Not all ports use OUT2 as an interrupt mask.) Hence, revert part of f91a3715db2bb44fcf08cec642e68f919b70f7f4 and all of f5968b37b3ad35b682b574b578843a0361218aff until a better solution can be found.
