2009-01-29net: Fix OOPS in skb_seq_read().Shyam Iyer
It oopsd for me in skb_seq_read. addr2line said it was linux-2.6/net/core/skbuff.c:2228, which is this line: while (st->frag_idx < skb_shinfo(st->cur_skb)->nr_frags) { I added some printks in there and it looks like we hit this: } else if (st->root_skb == st->cur_skb && skb_shinfo(st->root_skb)->frag_list) { st->cur_skb = skb_shinfo(st->root_skb)->frag_list; st->frag_idx = 0; goto next_skb; } Actually I did some testing and added a few printks and found that the st->cur_skb->data was 0 and hence the ptr used by iscsi_tcp was null. This caused the kernel panic. if (abs_offset < block_limit) { - *data = st->cur_skb->data + abs_offset; + *data = st->cur_skb->data + (abs_offset - st->stepped_offset); I enabled the debug_tcp and with a few printks found that the code did not go to the next_skb label and could find that the sequence being followed was this - It hit this if condition - if (st->cur_skb->next) { st->cur_skb = st->cur_skb->next; st->frag_idx = 0; goto next_skb; And so, now the st pointer is shifted to the next skb whereas actually it should have hit the second else if first since the data is in the frag_list. else if (st->root_skb == st->cur_skb && skb_shinfo(st->root_skb)->frag_list) { st->cur_skb = skb_shinfo(st->root_skb)->frag_list; goto next_skb; } Reversing the two conditions the attached patch fixes the issue for me on top of Herbert's patches.

2009-01-29net: Fix frag_list handling in skb_seq_readHerbert Xu
The frag_list handling was broken in skb_seq_read: 1) We didn't add the stepped offset when looking at the head are of fragments other than the first. 2) We didn't take the stepped offset away when setting the data pointer in the head area. 3) The frag index wasn't reset. This patch fixes both issues. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-01-29netxen: revert jumbo ringsizeDhananjay Phadke
Reducing jumbo ring size below 1024 reduces throughput for old firmwares (3.4.216 and older) running on older (NX2031) chip, so restore it back to 1024. This was reduced in commit 32ec803348b4d5f1353e1d7feae30880b8b3e342 ("netxen: reduce memory footprint"). Raising jumbo ring size from 512 to 1024, adds ~4MB per port, but there's still big saving because of original patch (~20MB per port).

2009-01-29rtl8187: Fix error in setting OFDM power settings for RTL8187LLarry Finger
After reports of poor performance, a review of the latest vendor driver (rtl8187_linux_26.1025.0328.2007) for RTL8187L devices was undertaken. A difference was found in the code used to index the OFDM power tables. When the Linux driver was changed, my unit works at a much greater range than before. I think this fixes Bugzilla #12380 and has been tested by at least two other users.

2009-01-29firewire: sbp2: add workarounds for 2nd and 3rd generation iPodsStefan Richter
According to https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/294391 - 3rd generation iPods need the "fix capacity" workaround after all (apparently they crash after the last sector was accessed), - 2nd generation iPods need the "128 kB maximum request size" workaround. Alas both iPod generations feature the same model ID in the config ROM, hence we can only define a shared quirks list entry for them. Luckily the fix capacity workaround did not show a negative effect in Jarod's tests with 2nd gen. iPod. A side note: Apple computers in target mode (or at least an x86 Mac mini) don't have firmware_version and model_id, hence none of the iPod quirks list entries is active for them.

2009-01-29ASoC: OMAP: Initialize XCCR and RCCR registers in McBSP DAI driverMisael Lopez Cruz
This patch explicitly initializes McBSP Transmit Configuration Control Register (XCCR) and Receive Configuration Control Register (RCCR) to their reset values. Reset values are 26 ns of DX delay and Transmit DMA disabled for XCCR register; receive full cycle mode enabled and Receive DMA disabled for RCCR register. This patch requires a counterpart in OMAP McBSP driver before to apply it. The required changes in McBSP were sent and approved in linux-omap mailing list and patch is going upstream (commit 3127f8f8595a064b3f1a1837fea2177902589ac3 from linux-omap-2.6 tree).

2009-01-29cifs: turn smb_send into a wrapper around smb_sendvJeff Layton
cifs: turn smb_send into a wrapper around smb_sendv Rename smb_send2 to smb_sendv to make it consistent with kernel naming conventions for functions that take a vector. There's no need to have 2 functions to handle sending SMB calls. Turn smb_send into a wrapper around smb_sendv. This also allows us to properly mark the socket as needing to be reconnected when there's a partial send from smb_send. Also, in practice we always use the address and noblocksnd flag that's attached to the TCP_Server_Info. There's no need to pass them in as separate args to smb_sendv.

This makes sbp2 behave more like firewire-sbp2 which reports 0xff000000 as immediate value if there are no unit directory entries for model_id or firmware_revision. It does not reduce matches with the currently existing quirks table; the only zero entry there is for a device which actually does have a zero model_id. It only changes how model_id and firmware_revision are logged if they are missing. Other functionally unrelated changes: The model_id member of quirks list entries is renamed to model; the value (but not the effect) of SBP2_ROM_VALUE_WILDCARD is changed.
