2006-11-29[MTD] [NAND] remove len/ooblen confusion.Vitaly Wool1-7/+5
As was discussed between Ricard Wanderlöf, David Woodhouse, Artem Bityutskiy and me, the current API for reading/writing OOB is confusing. The thing that introduces confusion is the need to specify ops.len together with ops.ooblen for reads/writes that concern only OOB not data area. So, ops.len is overloaded: when ops.datbuf != NULL it serves to specify the length of the data read, and when ops.datbuf == NULL, it serves to specify the full OOB read length. The patch inlined below is the slightly updated version of the previous patch serving the same purpose, but with the new Artem's comments taken into account. Artem, BTW, thanks a lot for your valuable input! Signed-off-by: Vitaly Wool <vwool@ru.mvista.com> Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>
2006-11-29[MTD] Allow variable block sizes in mtd_blkdevsRichard Purdie1-1/+2
Currently, mtd_blkdevs enforces a block size of 512, even if the drivers can seemingly request a different size. This patch fixes mtd_blkdevs so block sizes other than 512 work correctly. Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <rpurdie@openedhand.com> Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>
2006-10-21[MTD] NAND: Combined oob buffer so it's contiguous with dataDavid Woodhouse1-5/+1
Ditch the separate oobrbuf and oobwbuf fields from the chip buffers, and use only a single buffer immediately after the data. This accommodates NAND controllers such as the OLPC CAFÉ chip, which can't do scatter/gather DMA so needs the OOB buffer to be contiguous with the data, for both read and write.

2006-10-20[PATCH] separate bdi congestion functions from queue congestion functionsAndrew Morton3-5/+27
Separate out the concept of "queue congestion" from "backing-dev congestion". Congestion is a backing-dev concept, not a queue concept. The blk_* congestion functions are retained, as wrappers around the core backing-dev congestion functions. This proper layering is needed so that NFS can cleanly use the congestion functions, and so that CONFIG_BLOCK=n actually links.

2006-10-19[TCP]: Bound TSO defer timeJohn Heffner1-0/+2
This patch limits the amount of time you will defer sending a TSO segment to less than two clock ticks, or the time between two acks, whichever is longer. On slow links, deferring causes significant bursts. See attached plots, which show RTT through a 1 Mbps link with a 100 ms RTT and ~100 ms queue for (a) non-TSO, (b) currnet TSO, and (c) patched TSO. This burstiness causes significant jitter, tends to overflow queues early (bad for short queues), and makes delay-based congestion control more difficult. Deferring by a couple clock ticks I believe will have a relatively small impact on performance. Signed-off-by: John Heffner <jheffner@psc.edu> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2006-10-18PCI: optionally sort device lists breadth-firstMatt Domsch1-0/+1
Problem: New Dell PowerEdge servers have 2 embedded ethernet ports, which are labeled NIC1 and NIC2 on the chassis, in the BIOS setup screens, and in the printed documentation. Assuming no other add-in ethernet ports in the system, Linux 2.4 kernels name these eth0 and eth1 respectively. Many people have come to expect this naming. Linux 2.6 kernels name these eth1 and eth0 respectively (backwards from expectations). I also have reports that various Sun and HP servers have similar behavior. Root cause: Linux 2.4 kernels walk the pci_devices list, which happens to be sorted in breadth-first order (or pcbios_find_device order on i386, which most often is breadth-first also). 2.6 kernels have both the pci_devices list and the pci_bus_type.klist_devices list, the latter is what is walked at driver load time to match the pci_id tables; this klist happens to be in depth-first order. On systems where, for physical routing reasons, NIC1 appears on a lower bus number than NIC2, but NIC2's bridge is discovered first in the depth-first ordering, NIC2 will be discovered before NIC1. If the list were sorted breadth-first, NIC1 would be discovered before NIC2. A PowerEdge 1955 system has the following topology which easily exhibits the difference between depth-first and breadth-first device lists. -[0000:00]-+-00.0 Intel Corporation 5000P Chipset Memory Controller Hub +-02.0-[0000:03-08]--+-00.0-[0000:04-07]--+-00.0-[0000:05-06]----00.0-[0000:06]----00.0 Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme II BCM5708S Gigabit Ethernet (labeled NIC2, 2.4 kernel name eth1, 2.6 kernel name eth0) +-1c.0-[0000:01-02]----00.0-[0000:02]----00.0 Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme II BCM5708S Gigabit Ethernet (labeled NIC1, 2.4 kernel name eth0, 2.6 kernel name eth1) Other factors, such as device driver load order and the presence of PCI slots at various points in the bus hierarchy further complicate this problem; I'm not trying to solve those here, just restore the device order, and thus basic behavior, that 2.4 kernels had. Solution: The solution can come in multiple steps. Suggested fix #1: kernel Patch below optionally sorts the two device lists into breadth-first ordering to maintain compatibility with 2.4 kernels. It adds two new command line options: pci=bfsort pci=nobfsort to force the sort order, or not, as you wish. It also adds DMI checks for the specific Dell systems which exhibit "backwards" ordering, to make them "right". Suggested fix #2: udev rules from userland Many people also have the expectation that embedded NICs are always discovered before add-in NICs (which this patch does not try to do). Using the PCI IRQ Routing Table provided by system BIOS, it's easy to determine which PCI devices are embedded, or if add-in, which PCI slot they're in. I'm working on a tool that would allow udev to name ethernet devices in ascending embedded, slot 1 .. slot N order, subsort by PCI bus/dev/fn breadth-first. It'll be possible to use it independent of udev as well for those distributions that don't use udev in their installers. Suggested fix #3: system board routing rules One can constrain the system board layout to put NIC1 ahead of NIC2 regardless of breadth-first or depth-first discovery order. This adds a significant level of complexity to board routing, and may not be possible in all instances (witness the above systems from several major manufacturers). I don't want to encourage this particular train of thought too far, at the expense of not doing #1 or #2 above. Feedback appreciated. Patch tested on a Dell PowerEdge 1955 blade with 2.6.18. You'll also note I took some liberty and temporarily break the klist abstraction to simplify and speed up the sort algorithm. I think that's both safe and appropriate in this instance.

2006-10-18pci: Additional search functionsAlan Cox1-1/+2
In order to finish converting to pci_get_* interfaces we need to add a couple of bits of missing functionaility pci_get_bus_and_slot() provides the equivalent to pci_find_slot() (pci_get_slot is already taken as a name for something similar but not the same) pci_get_device_reverse() is the equivalent of pci_find_device_reverse but refcounting Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2006-10-18[S390] Fix pte type checking.Martin Schwidefsky1-10/+40
handle_pte_fault uses pte_present, pte_none and pte_file to find out the type of a pte. That is done without holding the page table lock. This clashes with the way how ptep_clear_flush removes active page table entries from the system. First the ipte instruction is used to invalidate the pte and remove all plt entries for the page. The ipte sets the hardware invalid bit without changing any other bit. After the ipte finished the pte is cleared. A concurrent fault can observe the the previously valid pte with the invalid bit set. With the current encoding of the different pte types an invalidated read-only pte can be misinterpreted as a swap-pte. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

2006-10-18[IA64] remove unused PAL_CALL_IC_OFFBjorn Helgaas1-9/+2
Linux maps PAL instructions with an ITR, but uses a DTC for PAL data. Section 11.10.2.1.3, "Making PAL Procedures Calls in Physical or Virtual Mode," of the SDM (rev 2.2), says we must therefore make all PAL calls with PSR.ic = 1 so that Linux can handle any TLB faults. PAL_CALL_IC_OFF is currently unused, and as long as we use the ITR + DTC strategy, we can't use it. So remove it. I also removed the code in ia64_pal_call_static() that conditionally cleared PSR.ic.

2006-10-18[IA64] move ioremap/ioremap_nocache under __KERNEL__Aron Griffis1-2/+2
I noticed these are declared extern outside of __KERNEL__, but surely they wouldn't be available to userland since they're defined in ioremap.c. Am I missing something here? If I'm right about this, then there's probably a good deal of other stuff in io.h that could move inside __KERNEL__, but at least this is a start.
