29 July 2005, Cambridge, MA:
This afternoon Alan Stern submitted a patch to remove the URB_ASYNC_UNLINK
flag from the Linux kernel. Mr. Stern explained, "This flag is a relic
from an earlier, less-well-designed system. For over a year it hasn't
been used for anything other than printing warning messages."
An anonymous spokesman for the Linux kernel development community
commented, "This is exactly the sort of thing we see happening all the
time. As the kernel evolves, support for old techniques and old code can
be jettisoned and replaced by newer, better approaches. Proprietary
operating systems do not have the freedom or flexibility to change so
quickly."
Mr. Stern, a staff member at Harvard University's Rowland Institute who
works on Linux only as a hobby, noted that the patch (labelled as548) did
not update two files, keyspan.c and option.c, in the USB drivers' "serial"
subdirectory. "Those files need more extensive changes," he remarked.
"They examine the status field of several URBs at times when they're not
supposed to. That will need to be fixed before the URB_ASYNC_UNLINK flag
is removed."
Greg Kroah-Hartman, the kernel maintainer responsible for overseeing all
of Linux's USB drivers, did not respond to our inquiries or return our
calls. His only comment was "Applied, thanks."

Fix bug in bnx2_interrupt() that caused an unnecessary register read.
The BNX2_PCICFG_MISC_STATUS should only be read when the status tag
has not changed.
Add prefetch of the status block in bnx2_msi() similar to tg3_msi().
The status block is not touched in bnx2_msi() and prefetching it will
speed up bnx2_poll() that will run on the same CPU that received the
MSI.
Update version.

I noticed a strange return value in smsc_ircc_init in
drivers/net/irda/smsc_ircc2.c in rc4-mm1.
When reaching the line "if (ircc_fir > 0 && ircc_sir > 0)", ret is 0. So I
don't see the point of setting it to 0 in the "else" case. >From what I
see in 2.6.12 it should probably be set to -ENODEV at the begining of the
"else" case. The attached patch does this.
Note that I didn't actually see any breakage caused by this.

This patch adds a driver for a new 1000 Mbit ethernet NIC. It is
integrated on the south bridge that is used for our Cell Blades.
The code gets the MAC address from the Open Firmware device tree, so it
won't compile on platforms other than ppc64.
This is the first public release, so I don't expect the first version to
get merged, but I'd aim for integration within the 2.6.13 time frame.

Hi,
This patch contains the following hardware related fixes and other
miscellaneous bug fixes.
1. Updated the definition of single and double-bit ECC errors
2. Earlier we were allocating Transmit descriptors equal to
MAX_SKB_FRAGS. This was causing a boundary condition failure.
Need to allocate MAX_SKB_FRAGS+1 descriptors.
3. On some platforms(like PPC), pci_alloc_consistent() can return
a zero DMA address. Since the NIC cannot handle zero-addresses,
a workaround has been provided. Basically, we don't use such
that page. We reallocate.
4. If list_info allocation failed during driver load, check for
it during driver exit and return instead of trying to dereference
NULL pointer.
5. Increase the debug level of few non-critical debug messages.
6. Reset the card on critical ECC double errors only in case of
XframeI since XframeII can recover from such errors.
7. Print copyright message on driver load.
8. Bumped up the driver version no. to 2.0.8.1

Use the status tag to determine if there are new events in
tg3_interrupt_tagged(). We discussed about this a while ago with Grant
Grundler and DaveM. This scheme makes it unnecessary to clear the
updated bit in the status block when using tagged mode, and only
a simple comparison is needed to determine if there are new events.
The tp->lock around netif_rx_complete() and tg3_restart_ints() is also
removed. It is unnecessary with DaveM's new locking scheme.

Remove unnecessary status block accesses in tg3_msi(). Since MSI is
not shared, it is unnecessary to read the status block to determine if
there are any new events in the MSI handler. It is also unnecessary to
clear the updated bit in the status block.
Since the poll list is per-cpu, tg3_poll() will be scheduled to run on
the same CPU that received the MSI. Prefetches for the status block
and the next rx descriptors are added in tg3_msi() to improve their
access times when tg3_poll() runs.
In the non-MSI irq handlers, we need to check the status block because
interrupts may be shared. Only prefetches for the next rx descriptors
are added.
