* sis900: Allocate rx replacement buffer before rx operationNeil Horman2007-04-241-24/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The sis900 driver appears to have a bug in which the receive routine passes the skbuff holding the received frame to the network stack before refilling the buffer in the rx ring. If a new skbuff cannot be allocated, the driver simply leaves a hole in the rx ring, which causes the driver to stop receiving frames and become non-recoverable without an rmmod/insmod according to reporters. This patch reverses that order, attempting to allocate a replacement buffer first, and receiving the new frame only if one can be allocated. If no skbuff can be allocated, the current skbuf in the rx ring is recycled, dropping the current frame, but keeping the NIC operational.

* IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlersDavid Howells2006-10-051-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the Linux kernel. The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack space and code to pass it around. On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path (ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()). Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do something different with the variable. On FRV, for instance, the address is maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception handling. Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down through up to twenty or so layers of functions. Consider a USB character device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller. A character device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing. I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386. I've runtested the main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers. I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile with minimal configurations. This will affect all archs. Mostly the changes should be relatively easy. Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one: struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs); And put the old one back at the end: set_irq_regs(old_regs); Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ(). In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary: - update_process_times(user_mode(regs)); - profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs); + update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs())); + profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING); I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself, except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode(). Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers: (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely. The regs pointer is no longer stored in the input_dev struct. (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking. It does something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs pointer or not. (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type irq_handler_t.

| * sis900: phy for FoxCon motherboardJames Cameron2006-05-101-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 661FX7MI-S motherboard which uses the SiS 661FX chipset. The patch adds an entry to mii_chip_info for the transceiver. The PHY ids were found using the sis900_c_122.diff patch from http://brownhat.org/sis900.html but that patch didn't solve the problem, because the PHY at address 1 was already being chosen. Without my patch, when bursts of packets arrive from other hosts on a LAN, the interface dropped one roughly 10% of the time, causing retransmits. There were fifth second pauses in refresh of large xterms, and it made Netrek suck. I can provide further test data. Workaround in lieu of patch is to use mii-tool to advertise 100baseTx-HD, then force renegotiation. I wasn't able to identify the actual transceiver, so the description field is a guess. This patch is similar to Artur Skawina's patch: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-netdev&m=114297516729079&w=2 I'm not sure, but I wonder if it means the default behaviour should be changed, so as to better handle future transceivers.

It is based on an old (2003) patch for the 2.4 series by Hamid Hashemi Golpayegani. It applies on top of 2.6.16(.5). I have one report that it works and behaves as intended.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Sorry, but that day I had smoked somthing too heavy for me, the patch didn't apply. Here's a new one. The patch availble below adds support for Wake on LAN to the sis900 driver. Some register addresses were added to sis900.h and two new functions were implemented in sis900.c. WoL status is controlled by ethtool. Patch is against 2.6.13. Comments are welcome, but also consider for inclusion in the -mm series.

* sis900: come alive after temporary memory shortageVasily Averin2005-10-281-4/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1) Forgotten counter incrementation in sis900_rx() in case it doesn't get memory for skb, that leads to whole interface failure. Problem is accompanied with messages: eth0: Memory squeeze,deferring packet. eth0: NULL pointer encountered in Rx ring, skipping 2) If counter cur_rx overflows and there'll be temporary memory problems buffer can't be recreated later, when memory IS available. 3) Limit the work in handler to prevent the endless packets processing if new packets are generated faster then handled.

* [NET]: Remove gratuitous use of skb->tail in network drivers.David S. Miller2005-06-281-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Many drivers use skb->tail unnecessarily. In these situations, the code roughly looks like: dev = dev_alloc_skb(...); [optional] skb_reserve(skb, ...); ... skb->tail ... But even if the skb_reserve() happens, skb->data equals skb->tail. So it doesn't make any sense to use anything other than skb->data in these cases. Another case was the s2io.c driver directly mucking with the skb->data and skb->tail pointers. It really just wanted to do an skb_reserve(), so that's what the code was changed to do instead. Another reason I'm making this change as it allows some SKB cleanups I have planned simpler to merge. In those cleanups, skb->head, skb->tail, and skb->end pointers are removed, and replaced with skb->head_room and skb->tail_room integers. Signed-off-by: David S.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
