The Thinkpad X100e seems to have some odd behaviour when the display is
powered off - the onboard r8169 starts generating rxfifo overflow errors.
The root cause of this has not yet been identified and may well be a
hardware design bug on the platform, but r8169 should be more resiliant to
this. This patch enables the rxfifo interrupt on 8168 devices and removes
the MAC version check in the interrupt handler, and the machine no longer
crashes when under network load while the screen turns off.

Some pcnet_cs compatible cards require an exact 16-lines match
of the ioport areas specified in CIS, but set the "iolines"
value in the CIS incorrectly. We can easily work around this
issue -- same as we do in serial_cs -- by first trying setting
iolines to the CIS-specified value, and then trying a 16-line
match.

It was recently brought to my attention that 802.3ad mode bonds would no
longer form when using some network hardware after a driver update.
After snooping around I realized that the particular hardware was using
page-based skbs and found that skb->data did not contain a valid LACPDU
as it was not stored there. That explained the inability to form an
802.3ad-based bond. For balance-alb mode bonds this was also an issue
as ARPs would not be properly processed.
This patch fixes the issue in my tests and should be applied to 2.6.36
and as far back as anyone cares to add it to stable.

or other mechanisms before the ethernet interface will handle packets.
As ipheth only requires one-per-hotplug pairing setup with no

This fixes a bug introduced in commit
de84727214
"3c59x: Use fine-grained locks for MII and windowed register access".
vortex_interrupt() holds vp->window_lock over multiple register
accesses to reduce locking overhead. However it also needs to call
vortex_error() sometimes, and that uses the regular functions for
access to windowed registers, which will try to acquire window_lock
again.
Therefore, drop window_lock around the call to vortex_error() and set
the window afterward reacquiring the lock. Since vortex_error() may
call vortex_rx(), which *does* require its caller to hold window_lock,
lift that call up into vortex_interrupt(). This also removes the
potential for calling vortex_rx() on a later-generation NIC.

The time_before_eq()/time_after_eq() functions operate on unsigned
long and only work if the difference between the two compared values
is smaller than half the range of unsigned long (31 bits on i386).
Some of the variables (slave->jiffies, dev->trans_start, dev->last_rx)
used by bonding store a copy of jiffies and may not be updated for a
long time. With HZ=1000, time_before_eq()/time_after_eq() will start
giving bad results after ~25 days.
jiffies will never be before slave->jiffies, dev->trans_start,
dev->last_rx by more than possibly a couple ticks caused by preemption
of this code. This allows us to detect/prevent these overflows by
replacing time_before_eq()/time_after_eq() with time_in_range().

vortex_ioctl() was grabbing vortex_private::lock around its call to
generic_mii_ioctl(). This is no longer necessary since there are more
specific locks which the mdio_{read,write}() functions will obtain.
Worse, those functions do not save and restore IRQ flags when locking
the MII state, so interrupts will be enabled when generic_mii_ioctl()
returns.
Since there is currently no need for any function to call
mdio_{read,write}() while holding another spinlock, do not change them
to save and restore IRQ flags but remove the specification of ordering
between vortex_private::lock and vortex_private::mii_lock.

It is possible that phylib will call adjust_link before returning
from {,of_}phy_connect(), which may cause the following [very rare,
though] oops upon reopening the device:

[...]
Here is why. Drivers store phydev in their private structures, e.g.
gianfar driver:
static int init_phy(struct net_device *dev)
{
...
priv->phydev = of_phy_connect(...);
...
}
So that adjust_link could retrieve it back:
static void adjust_link(struct net_device *dev)
{
...
struct phy_device *phydev = priv->phydev;
...
}
If the device has been opened before, then phydev->state is set to
PHY_HALTED (or undefined if the driver didn't call phy_stop()).
Now, phy_connect starts the PHY state machine before returning phydev to
the driver:
phy_start_machine(phydev, NULL);
if (phydev->irq > 0)
phy_start_interrupts(phydev);
return phydev;
The time between 'phy_start_machine()' and 'return phydev' is undefined.
The start machine routine delays execution for 1 second, which is enough
for most cases. But under heavy load, or if you're unlucky, it is quite
possible that PHY state machine will execute before phy_connect()
returns, and so adjust_link callback will try to dereference phydev,
which is not yet ready.
To fix the issue, simply initialize the PHY's state to PHY_READY during
phy_attach(). This will ensure that phylib won't call adjust_link before
phy_start().

If netconsole is in use, there is a possibility for deadlock in 3c59x between
boomerang_interrupt and boomerang_start_xmit. Both routines take the vp->lock,
and if netconsole is in use, a pr_* call from the boomerang_interrupt routine
will result in the netconsole code attempting to trnasmit an skb, which can try
to take the same spin lock, resulting in deadlock.
The fix is pretty straightforward. This patch allocats a bit in the 3c59x
private structure to indicate that its handling an interrupt. If we get into
the transmit routine and that bit is set, we can be sure that we have recursed
and will deadlock if we continue, so instead we just return NETDEV_TX_BUSY, so
the stack requeues the skb to try again later.

ehea: Fix synchronization between HW and SW send queue
When memory is added to / removed from a partition via the Memory DLPAR
mechanism, the eHEA driver has to do a couple of things to reflect the
memory change in its own IO address translation tables. This involves
stopping and restarting the HW queues.
During this operation, it is possible that HW and SW pointer into these
queues get out of sync. This results in a situation where packets that
are attached to a send queue are not transmitted immediately, but
delayed until further X packets have been put on the queue.
This patch detects such loss of synchronization, and resets the ehea
port when needed.

PHY locking is required between two ports for some external PHYs. Since

was in fact no PHY locking between the ports.

Atheros PCIe wireless cards handled by ath5k do require L0s disabled.
For distributions shipping with CONFIG_PCIEASPM (this will be enabled
by default in the future in 2.6.36) this will also mean both L1 and L0s
will be disabled when a pre 1.1 PCIe device is detected. We do know L1
works correctly even for all ath5k pre 1.1 PCIe devices though but cannot
currently undue the effect of a blacklist, for details you can read
pcie_aspm_sanity_check() and see how it adjusts the device link
capability.
It may be possible in the future to implement some PCI API to allow
drivers to override blacklists for pre 1.1 PCIe but for now it is
best to accept that both L0s and L1 will be disabled completely for
distributions shipping with CONFIG_PCIEASPM rather than having this
issue present. Motivation for adding this new API will be to help
with power consumption for some of these devices.
Example of issues you'd see:
- On the Acer Aspire One (AOA150, Atheros Communications Inc. AR5001
Wireless Network Adapter [168c:001c] (rev 01)) doesn't work well
with ASPM enabled, the card will eventually stall on heavy traffic
with often 'unsupported jumbo' warnings appearing. Disabling
ASPM L0s in ath5k fixes these problems.
- On the same card you would see a storm of RXORN interrupts
even though medium is idle.
Credit for root causing and fixing the bug goes to Jussi Kivilinna.

Some APs advertise that they may be HT40 capable in the capabilites
but the current operating channel configuration may be only HT20.
This causes disconnection as ath9k_htc sets WLAN_RC_40_FLAG despite
the AP operating in HT20 mode.
Hence set this flag only if the current channel configuration
is HT40 enabled.

This patch makes rx_submit() return an error code, and makes some call sites
that care check the return value. This is important because it lets us properly
handle cases where the device isn't ready to handle URB submissions (e.g., when
it is autosuspended under some drivers); previously, we would attempt and fail
to submit URBs and reschedule ourselves to try and fail again. This patch is

In the original code we allocated memory conditionally and freed it in
the error handling unconditionally. It turns out that this function is
only called during initialization and "adapter->npars" and
"adapter->eswitch" are always NULL at the start of the function. I
removed those checks.
Also since I was cleaning things, I changed the error handling for
qlcnic_get_pci_info() and pulled everything in an indent level.

Currently the driver will try to protect all frames,
which leads to a lot of odd things like sending an
RTS with a zeroed RA before multicast frames, which
is clearly bogus.
In order to fix all of this, we need to take a step
back and see what we need to achieve:
* we need RTS/CTS protection if requested by
the AP for the BSS, mac80211 tells us this
* in that case, CTS-to-self should only be
enabled when mac80211 tells us
* additionally, as a hardware workaround, on
some devices we have to protect aggregated
frames with RTS
To achieve the first two items, set up the RXON
accordingly and set the protection required flag
in the transmit command when mac80211 requests
protection for the frame.
To achieve the last item, set the rate-control
RTS-requested flag for all stations that we have
aggregation sessions with, and set the protection
required flag when sending aggregated frames (on
those devices where this is required).
Since otherwise bugs can occur, do not allow the
user to override the RTS-for-aggregation setting
from sysfs any more.
Finally, also clean up the way all these flags get
set in the driver and move everything into the
device-specific functions.
