commit fa0681d2129732027355d6b7083dd8932b9b799d upstream.
The current implementation allocates a single host page for EQ context
memory, which was OK when we only allocated a few EQs. However, since
we now allocate an EQ for each CPU core, this patch removes the
hard-coded limit (which we exceed with 4 KB pages and 128 byte EQ
context entries with 32 CPUs) and uses the same ICM table code as all
other context tables, which ends up simplifying the code quite a bit
while fixing the problem.
This problem was actually hit in practice on a dual-socket Nehalem box
with 16 real hardware threads and sufficiently odd ACPI tables that it
shows on boot
SMP: Allowing 32 CPUs, 16 hotplug CPUs
so num_possible_cpus() ends up 32, and mlx4 ends up creating 33 MSI-X
interrupts and 33 EQs. This mlx4 bug means that mlx4 can't even
initialize at all on this quite mainstream system.

commit 3355443ad7601991affa5992b0d53870335af765 upstream.
"Ath5k: unify resets"
introduced a regression into 2.6.28 where the PCU registers are never
initialized, due to ath5k_reset() always passing true for change_channel.
We subsequently program a lot of these registers but several may start
in an unknown state.

[ Upstream commit a53a8b56827cc429c6d9f861ad558beeb5f6103f ]
This patch fixes the corner cases where the sum of MTU of the free
channels (adjusted for fragmentation overheads) is less than the MTU
of PPP link. There are at least 3 situations where this case might
arise:
- some of the channels are busy
- the multilink session is running in a degraded state (i.e. with less
than its full complement of active channels)
- by design, where multilink protocol is being used to artificially
increase the effective link MTU of a single link.
Without this patch, at most 1 fragment is ever sent per free channel
for a given PPP frame and any remaining part of the PPP frame that
does not fit into those fragments is silently discarded.
This patch restores the original behaviour which was broken by commit
9c705260feea6ae329bc6b6d5f6d2ef0227eda0a 'ppp:ppp_mp_explode()
redesign'. Once all 'free' channels have been given a fragment, an
additional fragment is queued to each available channel in turn, as many
times as necessary, until the entire PPP frame has been consumed.

[ Upstream commit 6ff9c2e7fa8ca63a575792534b63c5092099c286 ]
E100 places it's RX packet descriptors inside skb->data and uses them
with bidirectional streaming DMA mapping. Data in descriptors is
accessed simultaneously by the chip (writing status and size when
a packet is received) and CPU (reading to check if the packet was
received). This isn't a valid usage of PCI DMA API, which requires use
of the coherent (consistent) memory for such purpose. Unfortunately e100
chips working in "simplified" RX mode have to store received data
directly after the descriptor. Fixing the driver to conform to the API
would require using unsupported "flexible" RX mode or receiving data
into a coherent memory and using CPU to copy it to network buffers.
This patch, while not yet making the driver conform to the PCI DMA API,
allows it to work correctly on X86 with swiotlb (while not breaking
other architectures).

commit 99f1b01562b7dcae75b043114f76163fbf84fcab upstream.
Do all key clearing except sending sommands to device when rfkill
enabled. When rfkill enabled the interface is brought down and will
be brought back up correctly after rfkill is enabled again.
Same change is not needed for iwl3945 as it ignores return code when
sending key clearing command to device.

(Not needed upstream, due to the major rewrite in 2.6.31)
Due to rfkill and iwlwifi mishmash of SW / HW killswitch representation,
we have race conditions which make unable turn wifi radio on, after enable
and disable again killswitch. I can observe this problem on my laptop
with iwl3945 device.
In rfkill core HW switch and SW switch are separate 'states'. Device can
be only in one of 3 states: RFKILL_STATE_SOFT_BLOCKED, RFKILL_STATE_UNBLOCKED,
RFKILL_STATE_HARD_BLOCKED. Whereas in iwlwifi driver we have separate bits
STATUS_RF_KILL_HW and STATUS_RF_KILL_SW for HW and SW switches - radio can be
turned on, only if both bits are cleared.
In this particular race conditions, radio can not be turned on if in driver
STATUS_RF_KILL_SW bit is set, and rfkill core is in state
RFKILL_STATE_HARD_BLOCKED, because rfkill core is unable to call
rfkill->toggle_radio(). This situation can be entered in case:
- killswitch is turned on
- rfkill core 'see' button change first and move to RFKILL_STATE_SOFT_BLOCKED
also call ->toggle_radio() and STATE_RF_KILL_SW in driver is set
- iwl3945 get info about button from hardware to set STATUS_RF_KILL_HW bit and
force rfkill to move to RFKILL_STATE_HARD_BLOCKED
- killsiwtch is turend off
- driver clear STATUS_RF_KILL_HW
- rfkill core is unable to clear STATUS_RF_KILL_SW in driver
Additionally call to rfkill_epo() when STATUS_RF_KILL_HW in driver is set
cause move to the same situation.
In 2.6.31 this problem is fixed due to _total_ rewrite of rfkill subsystem.
This is a quite small fix for 2.6.30.x in iwlwifi driver. We are changing
internal rfkill state to always have below relations true:
STATUS_RF_KILL_HW=1 STATUS_RF_KILL_SW=1 <-> RFKILL_STATUS_SOFT_BLOCKED
STATUS_RF_KILL_HW=0 STATUS_RF_KILL_SW=1 <-> RFKILL_STATUS_SOFT_BLOCKED
STATUS_RF_KILL_HW=1 STATUS_RF_KILL_SW=0 <-> RFKILL_STATUS_HARD_BLOCKED
STATUS_RF_KILL_HW=0 STATUS_RF_KILL_SW=0 <-> RFKILL_STATUS_UNBLOCKED

commit 6b26dead3ce97d016b57724b01974d5ca5c84bd5 upstream.
Change rt2x00_rf_read() and rt2x00_rf_write() to subtract 1 from the rf
register number. This is needed because the rf registers are enumerated
starting with one. The size of the rf register cache is just enough to
hold all registers, so writing to the highest register was corrupting
memory. Add a check to make sure that the rf register number is valid.

[ Upstream commit bd46cb6cf11867130a41ea9546dd65688b71f3c2 ]
While testing the driver on PPC, we ran into a crash with LRO, Jumbo frames.
With CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES configured (a default in PPC), MAX_SKB_FRAGS drops to 3 and we were crossing the array limits on skb_shinfo(skb)->frags[].
Now we coalesce the frags from the same physical page into one slot in
skb_shinfo(skb)->frags[] and go to the next index when the frag is from
different physical page.
This patch is against the net-2.6 tree.

This changes the power_level file to adhere to the "one value
per file" sysfs rule. The user will know which power level was
requested as it will be the number just written to this file. It
is thus not necessary to create a new sysfs file for this value.
In addition it fixes a problem where powertop's parsing expects
this value to be the first value in this file without any descriptions.

commit 6877f54e6a3326c99aaf84b7bff6a3019da0b847 upstream.
The Unicast Promiscious Mode (UPM) bit in the mv643xx_eth port
configuration register doesn't do exactly what its name would suggest:
setting this bit merely enables reception of all unicast frames with a
destination address that differs from our local MAC address in bits
[47:4]. In particular, it doesn't have any effect on unicast frames
with a destination address that matches our MAC address in bits [47:4]
-- these will still be tested against the 16-entry unicast address
filter table.
Therefore, if the interface is set to promiscuous mode, just setting
the unicast promiscuous bit isn't enough -- we need to set all filter
bits in the unicast filter table to 1 as well.

commit f0214843ba23d9bf6dc6b8ad2c6ee27b60f0322e upstream.
An earlier commit, 'ath9k: remove dummy PCI "retry timeout" fix', removed
code that was documented to disable RETRY_TIMEOUT register (PCI reg
0x41) since it was claimed to be a no-op. However, it turns out that
there are some combinations of hosts and ath9k-supported cards for
which this is not a no-op (reg 0x41 has value 0x80, not 0) and this
code (or something similar) is needed. In such cases, the driver may
be next to unusable due to very frequent PCI FATAL interrupts from the
card.
Reverting the earlier commit, i.e., restoring the RETRY_TIMEOUT
disabling, seems to resolve the issue. Since the removal of this code
was not based on any known issue and was purely a cleanup change, the
safest option here is to just revert that commit. Should there be
desire to clean this up in the future, the change will need to be
tested with a more complete coverage of cards and host systems.

[ Upstream commit f0a4d0e5b5bfd271e6737f7c095994835b70d450 ]
It is possible for tun_chr_close to race with dellink on the
a tun device. In which case if __tun_get runs before dellink
but dellink runs before tun_chr_close calls unregister_netdevice
we will attempt to unregister the netdevice after it is already
gone.
The two cases are already serialized on the rtnl_lock, so I have
gone for the cheap simple fix of moving rtnl_lock to cover __tun_get
in tun_chr_close. Eliminating the possibility of the tun device
being unregistered between __tun_get and unregister_netdevice in
tun_chr_close.

[ Upstream commit 6cc90a5a6061428358d0f726a53fb44af5254111 ]
The code to compute VPD size didn't handle some systems that use
chip without VPD. Also some of the newer chips use some additional
registers to store the actual size, and wasn't worth putting the
additional complexity in, so just remove the code.
No big loss since the code to set the VPD size was only a
convenience so that utilities would not read the extra space past
the end of the available VPD.
Move the first PCI config read earlier to detect bad hardware
where it returns all ones and refuse loading driver before furthur
damage.

e1000e: commonize tx cleanup routine to match e1000 & igb
changed the logic for determining if we should call napi_complete or
not at then end of a napi poll.
If the NIC is using MSI-X with no work to do in ->poll, net_rx_action
can just spin indefinitely on older kernels and for 2 jiffies on newer
kernels since napi_complete is never called and budget isn't
decremented.
Discovered and verified while testing driver backport to an older
kernel.

Michael Tokarev reported receiving a large packet could crash
a machine with RTL8169 NIC.
( original thread at http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/6/8/192 )
Problem is this driver tells that NIC frames up to 16383 bytes
can be received but provides skb to rx ring allocated with
smaller sizes (1536 bytes in case standard 1500 bytes MTU is used)
When a frame larger than what was allocated by driver is received,
dma transfert can occurs past the end of buffer and corrupt
kernel memory.
Fix is to tell to NIC what is the maximum size a frame can be.
This bug is very old, (before git introduction, linux-2.6.10), and
should be backported to stable versions.

Patch to fix bad length checking in e1000. E1000 by default does two
things:
1) Spans rx descriptors for packets that don't fit into 1 skb on recieve
2) Strips the crc from a frame by subtracting 4 bytes from the length prior to
doing an skb_put
Since the e1000 driver isn't written to support receiving packets that span
multiple rx buffers, it checks the End of Packet bit of every frame, and
discards it if its not set. This places us in a situation where, if we have a
spanning packet, the first part is discarded, but the second part is not (since
it is the end of packet, and it passes the EOP bit test). If the second part of
the frame is small (4 bytes or less), we subtract 4 from it to remove its crc,
underflow the length, and wind up in skb_over_panic, when we try to skb_put a
huge number of bytes into the skb. This amounts to a remote DOS attack through
careful selection of frame size in relation to interface MTU. The fix for this
is already in the e1000e driver, as well as the e1000 sourceforge driver, but no
one ever pushed it to e1000. This is lifted straight from e1000e, and prevents
small frames from causing the underflow described above

Add a phy_power_down parameter to forcedeth: set to 1 to power down the
phy and disable the link when an interface goes down; set to 0 to always
leave the phy powered up.
The phy power state persists across reboots; Windows, some BIOSes, and
older versions of Linux don't bother to power up the phy again, forcing
users to remove all power to get the interface working (see
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13072). Leaving the phy
powered on is the safest default behavior. Users accustomed to seeing
the link state reflect the interface state and/or wanting to minimize
power consumption can set phy_power_down=1 if compatibility with other
OSes is not an issue.

Commit 5e68b772e6efd189d6aca76f6872fb75d51ace60
cxgb3: map entire Rx page, feed map+offset to Rx ring.
introduced a regression on platforms defining DECLARE_PCI_UNMAP_ADDR()
and related macros as no-ops.
Rx descriptors are fed with the a page buffer bus address + page chunk offset.
The page buffer bus address is set and retrieved through
pci_unamp_addr_set(), pci_unmap_addr().
These functions being meaningless on x86 (if CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG is not set).
The HW ends up with a bogus bus address.
This patch saves the page buffer bus address for all plaftorms.
