2011-03-23ixgbe: work around for DDP last buffer sizeAmir Hanania2-1/+52
commit c600636bd560b04973174caa5e349a72bce51637 upstream. A HW limitation was recently discovered where the last buffer in a DDP offload cannot be a full buffer size in length. Fix the issue with a work around by adding another buffer with size = 1.

2011-03-23ath9k: remove support for the FIF_PROMISC_IN_BSS filter flagFelix Fietkau1-3/+1
commit 2e286947f1294239527c11f9f466ddce6466455b upstream. The hardware rx filter flag triggered by FIF_PROMISC_IN_BSS is overly broad and covers even frames with PHY errors. When this flag is enabled, this message shows up frequently during scanning or hardware resets: ath: Could not stop RX, we could be confusing the DMA engine when we start RX up Since promiscuous mode is usually not particularly useful, yet enabled by default by bridging (either used normally in 4-addr mode, or with hacks for various virtualization software), we should sacrifice it for better reliability during normal operation. This patch leaves it enabled if there are active monitor mode interfaces, since it's very useful for debugging. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

2011-03-23ath9k_hw: Fix incorrect macversion and macrev checksSenthil Balasubramanian1-2/+2
commit ac45c12dfb3f727a5a7a3332ed9c11b4a5ab287e upstream. There are few places where we are checking for macversion and revsions before RTC is powered ON. However we are reading the macversion and revisions only after RTC is powered ON and so both macversion and revisions are actully zero and this leads to incorrect srev checks Incorrect srev checks can cause registers to be configured wrongly and can cause unexpected behavior. Fixing this seems to address the ASPM issue that we have observed. The laptop becomes very slow and hangs mostly with ASPM L1 enabled without this fix. fix this by reading the macversion and revisisons even before we start using them. There is no reason why should we delay reading this info until RTC is powered on as this is just a register information.

commit 1519e57fe81c14bb8fa4855579f19264d1ef63b4 upstream. Some experiment-based action to prevent my 8168 chipsets locking-up hard in the irq handler under load (pktgen ~1Mpps). Apparently a reset is not always mandatory (is it at all ?). - RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_12 - RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_25 Missed ~55% packets. Note: - this is an old SiS 965L motherboard - the 8168 chipset emits (lots of) control frames towards the sender - RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_26 The chipset does not go into a frenzy of mac control pause when it crashes yet but it can still be crashed.

2011-03-08e1000e: 82579 PHY incorrectly identified during initBruce Allan2-5/+25
commit 664dc878ed6f0476b875547547a49e06f7a4e73b upstream. During init, reading the 2 PHY ID registers back-to-back in the default fast mode could return invalid data (all F's) and in slow mode could return data to the second read the data from the first read. To resolve the issue in fast mode, set to slow mode before any PHY accesses; to resolve the issue in slow mode, put in a delay for every 82579 PHY access. Since this PHY is currently only paired with the pch2lan MAC and the PHY type is not known before the first PHY access which can fail this way, check for this based on MAC-type.

But the commit "ath9k_hw: fix a noise floor calibration related race condition" makes the PA calibration executed more frequently beased on nfcal_pending value. Running PAOffset calibration lesser than longcal interval doesn't help anything and the worse part is that it causes NF load timeouts and RX deaf conditions. In a very noisy environment, where the distance b/w AP & station is ~10 meter and running a downlink udp traffic with frequent background scan causes "Timeout while waiting for nf to load: AR_PHY_AGC_CONTROL=0x40d1a" and moves the chip into deaf state. This issue was originaly reported in Android platform where the network-manager application does bgscan more frequently on AR9271 chips. (AR9285 family usb device).

2011-02-18ath9k: fix aphy / wiphy idle mismatchLuis R. Rodriguez2-0/+2
commit afe68d0a8f5961652e26cea39d74e2cc820de841 upstream. ath9k supports its own set of virtual wiphys, and it uses the mac80211 idle notifications to know when a device needs to be idle or not. We recently changed ath9k to force idle on driver stop() and on resume but forgot to take into account ath9k's own virtual wiphy idle states. These are used internally by ath9k to check if the device's radio should be powered down on each idle call. Without this change its possible that the device could have been forced off but the virtual wiphy idle was left on.

2011-02-18ath9k: fix assumptions for idle calls on suspend/resumeLuis R. Rodriguez2-2/+5
commit a08e7ade9ddf4fe79576f953cc5c1725e944d26c upstream. mac80211 will notify drivers when to go idle and ath9k assumed that it would get further notifications for idle states after a device stop() config call but as per agreed semantics the idle state of the radio is left up to driver after mac80211 issues the stop() callback. The driver is resposnbile for ensuring the device remains idle after that even between suspend / resume calls. This fixes suspend/resume when you issue suspend and resume twice on ath9k when ath9k_stop() was already called. We need to put the radio to full sleep in order for resume to work correctly. What might seem fishy is we are turning the radio off after resume. The reason why we do this is because we know we should not have anything enabled after a mac80211 tells us to stop(), if we resume and never get a start() we won't get another stop() by mac80211 so to be safe always bring the 802.11 device with the radio disabled after resume, this ensures that if we suspend we already have the radio disabled and only a start() will ever trigger it on.

commit 554d1d027b19265c4aa3f718b3126d2b86e09a08 upstream. Since commit 6cd0b1cb872b3bf9fc5de4536404206ab74bafdd "iwlagn: fix hw-rfkill while the interface is down", we enable interrupts when device is not ready to receive them. However hardware, when it is in some inconsistent state, can generate other than rfkill interrupts and crash the system. I can reproduce crash with "kernel BUG at drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-agn.c:1010!" message, when forcing firmware restarts. To fix only enable rfkill interrupt when down device and after probe. I checked patch on laptop with 5100 device, rfkill change is still passed to user space when device is down.

2011-01-03atl1: fix oops when changing tx/rx ring paramsJ. K. Cliburn1-0/+10
Commit 3f5a2a713aad28480d86b0add00c68484b54febc zeroes out the statistics message block (SMB) and coalescing message block (CMB) when adapter ring resources are freed. This is desirable behavior, but, as a side effect, the commit leads to an oops when atl1_set_ringparam() attempts to alter the number of rx or tx elements in the ring buffer (by using ethtool -G, for example). We don't want SMB or CMB to change during this operation. Modify atl1_set_ringparam() to preserve SMB and CMB when changing ring parameters.

Commit 56543af "starfire: use BUILD_BUG_ON for netdrv_addr_t" revealed that the preprocessor condition used to find the size of dma_addr_t yielded the wrong result for some architectures and configurations. This was kluged for 64-bit PowerPC in commit 3e502e6 by adding yet another case to the condition. However, 64-bit MIPS configurations are not detected reliably either. This should be fixed by using CONFIG_ARCH_DMA_ADDR_T_64BIT, but that isn't yet defined everywhere it should be. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk> Signed-off-by: David S.

2010-12-29ppp: allow disabling multilink protocol ID compressionstephen hemminger1-2/+7
Linux would not connect to other router running old version Cisco IOS (12.0). This is most likely a bug in that version of IOS, since it is fixed in later versions. As a workaround this patch allows a module parameter to be set to disable compressing the protocol ID. See: https://bugzilla.vyatta.com/show_bug.cgi?id=3979 RFC 1990 allows an implementation to formulate MP fragments as if protocol compression had been negotiated. This allows us to always send compressed protocol IDs. But some implementations don't accept MP fragments with compressed protocol IDs. This parameter allows us to interoperate with them. The default value of the configurable parameter is the same as the current behavior: protocol compression is enabled. If protocol compression is disabled we will not send compressed protocol IDs. This is based on an earlier patch by Bob Gilligan (using a sysctl). Module parameter is writable to allow for enabling even if ppp is already loaded for other uses.
