* | | [PATCH] I2C: Centralize 24RF08 corruption preventionJean Delvare2005-09-051-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The 24RF08 corruption would better be prevented at i2c-core level than at chip driver level, for several reasons: * The second quick write should happen as soon as possible after the first one, so as to limit the risk that another command is issued on the bus inbetween, causing the corruption. * As a matter of fact, the protection code at driver level was reworked at least three times already, which proves how hard it is to get it right there, while it's straightforward at i2c-core level. * It's easy to add a new driver that would need the protection, and forget to add it. This did happen already. * As additional probing addresses can be passed to most i2c chip drivers as module parameters, virtually every i2c chip driver would need the protection if we want to be really safe. * Why duplicate code when we can easily avoid it?

* | | [PATCH] I2C: Rewrite i2c_probeJean Delvare2005-09-051-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | i2c_probe was quite complex and slow, so I rewrote it in a more efficient and hopefully clearer way. Note that this slightly changes the way the module parameters are handled. This shouldn't change anything for the most common cases though. For one thing, the function now respects the order of the parameters for address probing. It used to always do lower addresses first. The new approach gives the user more control. For another, ignore addresses don't overrule probe addresses anymore. This could have been restored the way it was at the cost of a few more lines of code, but I don't think it's worth it. Both lists are given as module parameters, so a user would be quite silly to specify the same addresses in both lists. The normal addresses list is the only one that isn't controlled by a module parameter, thus is the only one the user may reasonably want to remove an address from. Another significant change is the fact that i2c_probe() will no more stop when a detection function returns -ENODEV. Just because a driver found a chip it doesn't support isn't a valid reason to stop all probings for this one driver. This closes the long standing lm_sensors ticket #1807. http://www2.lm-sensors.nu/~lm78/readticket.cgi?ticket=1807 I updated the documentation accordingly. In terms of algorithmic complexity, the new code is way better. If I is the ignore address count, P the probe address count, N the normal address count and F the force address count, the old code was doing 128 * (F + I + P + N) iterations max, while the new code does F + P + ((I+1) * N) iterations max. For the most common case where F, I and P are empty, this is down from 128 * N to N. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
* | | [PATCH] hwmon: hwmon vs i2c, second round (07/11)Jean Delvare2005-09-051-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The only part left in i2c-sensor is the VRM/VRD/VID handling code. This is in no way related to i2c, so it doesn't belong there. Move the code to hwmon, where it belongs. Note that not all hardware monitoring drivers do VRM/VRD/VID operations, so less drivers depend on hwmon-vid than there were depending on i2c-sensor.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The only thing left in i2c-sensor.h are module parameter definition macros. It's only an extension of what i2c.h offers, and this extension is not sensors-specific. As a matter of fact, a few non-sensors drivers use them. So we better merge them in i2c.h, and get rid of i2c-sensor.h altogether. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Drop the separate client name for the LM78-J chip. This is really only a later revision of the LM78, with almost no difference and no difference the driver handles in any case. This was the only client name that had a dash in it, and special care had to be taken in libsensors because of it. As we plan to write a new library soon, I'd like to get rid of this exception before we do. As a nice side effect, it saves 876 bytes in lm78.ko.

The timer has implementation dependent timeout frequencies that can be configured by software. One the first Watchdog timeout we get a critical exception. It is left to board specific code to determine what should happen at this point. If nothing is done and another timeout period expires the processor may attempt to reset the machine. Command line parameters: wdt=0 : disable watchdog (default) wdt=1 : enable watchdog wdt_period=N : N sets the value of the Watchdog Timer Period. The Watchdog Timer Period meaning is implementation specific. Check User Manual for the processor for more details. This patch is based off of work done by Takeharu Kato.

People that want to perform a memory consumption analysing can use it mainly if someone needs to figure out which libraries can be reduced for embedded systems. So the new features are the physical size of shared and clean [or dirty]; private and clean [or dirty].

(Includes a cleanup from "Richard Purdie" <rpurdie@rpsys.net>) From: Torsten Foertsch <torsten.foertsch@gmx.net> show_smap calls first show_map and then prints its additional information to the seq_file. show_map checks if all it has to print fits into the buffer and if yes marks the current vma as written. While that is correct for show_map it is not for show_smap. Here the vma should be marked as written only after the additional information is also written. The attached patch cures the problem. It moves the functionality of the show_map function to a new function show_map_internal that is called with an additional struct mem_size_stats* argument. Then show_map calls show_map_internal with NULL as struct mem_size_stats* whereas show_smap calls it with a real pointer. Now the final if (m->count < m->size) /* vma is copied successfully */ m->version = (vma != get_gate_vma(task))? vma->vm_start: 0; is done only if the whole entry fits into the buffer.

* | | | [PATCH] swap: swap_lock replace list+deviceHugh Dickins2005-09-051-8/+7

The only exceptions have been swap_duplicate, valid_swaphandles and an untrodden path in try_to_unuse (plus a few places added in this series). valid_swaphandles doesn't show up high in profiles, but swap_duplicate does demand attention. However, with the hold time in get_swap_pages so much reduced, I've not yet found a load and set of swap device priorities to show even swap_duplicate benefitting from the split. Certainly the split is mere overhead in the common case of a single swap device. So, replace swap_list_lock and swap_device_lock by spinlock_t swap_lock (generally we seem to prefer an _ in the name, and not hide in a macro). If someone can show a regression in swap_duplicate, then probably we should add a hashlock for the swap_map entries alone (shorts being anatomic), so as to help the case of the single swap device too.

There are other cases when we wish this to occur - when CTS is lowered, or if we change from soft to hard flow control and CTS is inactive. In these cases, this flag was false, and we would allow the transmitter to drain before stopping. There is really only one case where we want to let the transmitter drain before disabling, and that's when we run out of characters to send. Hence, re-jig the start_tx and stop_tx methods to eliminate this flag, and introduce new functions for the special "disable and allow transmitter to drain" case.

This driver supports the Chelsio N210 NIC and is backward compatible with the Chelsio N110 model 10Gb NICs. It supports AMD64, EM64T and x86 systems.

I would rather see ip-sysctl.txt updated or a new file on tuning recommendations started. Some of them have consequences that aren't documented well. For example, turning off TCP timestamps risks data corruption from sequence wrap. A new driver shouldn't need so may #ifdef's unless you want to putit on older vendor versions of 2.4 Some accessor and wrapper functions like: t1_pci_read_config_4 adapter_name t1_malloc are just annoying noise. Why have useless dead code like: /* Interrupt handler */ +static int pm3393_interrupt_handler(struct cmac *cmac) +{ + u32 master_intr_status; +/* + 1. Read master interrupt register. + 2. Read BLOCK's interrupt status registers. + 3. Handle BLOCK interrupts. +*/ Jeff said: step 1: kill all the OS wrappers. And do you really need hooks for multiple MACs, when only one MAC is really supported? Typically these hooks are at a higher level anyway -- struct net_device. From: Christoph Lameter <christoph@lameter Driver modified as suggested by Pekka Enberg, Stephen Hemminger and Andrian Bunk. Reduces the size of the driver to ~260k. - clean up tabs - removed my3126.c - removed 85% of suni1x10gexp_regs.h - removed 80% of regs.h - removed various calls, renamed variables/functions. - removed system specific and other wrappers (usleep, msleep) - removed dead code - dropped redundant casts in osdep.h - dropped redundant check of kfree - dropped weird code (MODVERSIONS stuff) - reduced number of #ifdefs - use kcalloc now instead of kmalloc - Add information about known issues with the driver - Add information about authors Signed-off-by: Scott Bardone <sbardone@chelsio.com> Signed-off-by: Christoph Lameter <christoph@lameter.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> diff -puN /dev/null Documentation/networking/cxgb.txt
