unify flush_work/flush_work_keventd and rename it to cancel_work_sync

2007-05-09T19:30:53+00:00

flush_work(wq, work) doesn't need the first parameter, we can use cwq->wq (this was possible from the very beginnig, I missed this). So we can unify flush_work_keventd and flush_work. Also, rename flush_work() to cancel_work_sync() and fix all callers. Perhaps this is not the best name, but "flush_work" is really bad.

network: add the missing phy_device speed information to phy_mii_ioctl

2007-04-28T15:00:57+00:00

Function `phy_mii_ioctl' returns physical device's information based on user requests. When requested to return the basic mode control register information (BMCR), the original implementation only returns the physical device's duplex information and forgets to return speed information, which should not be because BMCR register is used to hold both duplex and speed information. The patch checks the BMCR value against speed-related flags and fills the return structure's speed field accordingly.

[PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.h

2007-02-14T16:09:54+00:00

After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes. There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need anything defined in there. Presumably these includes were once needed for macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the course of cleaning it up. To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble. Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha, arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig, allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all configs in arch/arm/configs on arm. I also checked that no new warnings were introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted by unnecessarily included header files).

Add "run_scheduled_work()" workqueue function

2006-12-07T17:28:19+00:00

This allows workqueue users to run just their own pending work, rather than wait for the whole workqueue to finish running. This solves the deadlock with networking libphy that was due to other workqueue entries possibly needing a lock that was held by the routine that wanted to flush its own work. It's not wonderful: if you absolutely need to synchronize with the work function having been executed, any user strictly speaking should have its own completion tracking logic, since when we run things explicitly by hand, the generic workqueue layer can no longer help us synchronize. Also, this is strictly only usable for work that has been scheduled without any delayed timers. You can not mix the new interface with schedule_delayed_work(). But it's better than what we had currently. Acked-by: Maciej W. Rozycki Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

[PATCH] Fixed a number of bugs in the PHY Layer

2006-12-02T05:12:02+00:00

* genphy_update_link is now exported * Added a fix from ncase@xes-inc.com which changes forcing so it only updates the link. Otherwise, it never tries the lower values, since it is always overwriting the speed/duplex values with the current ones, rather than the intended ones. * Fixed a bug where bringing up a PHY with no link caused it to timeout, and enter forcing mode. Once in forcing mode, plugging in the link didn't autonegotiate. Now the AN state detects the lack of link, and enters the NO_LINK state. AN only times out if the link is up and AN fails * Cleaned up the PHY_AN case, reducing one level of indentation for the timeout code. Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik

[PATCH] 2.6.18: sb1250-mac: Phylib IRQ handling fixes

2006-12-02T05:11:55+00:00

This patch fixes a couple of problems discovered with interrupt handling in the phylib core, namely: 1. The driver uses timer and workqueue calls, but does not include nor . 2. The driver uses schedule_work() for handling interrupts, but does not make sure any pending work scheduled thus has been completed before driver's structures get freed from memory. This is especially important as interrupts may keep arriving if the line is shared with another PHY. The solution is to ignore phy_interrupt() calls if the reported device has already been halted and calling flush_scheduled_work() from phy_stop_interrupts() (but guarded with current_is_keventd() in case the function has been called through keventd from the MAC device's close call to avoid a deadlock on the netlink lock).
