2006-04-10[PATCH] splice: add optional input and output offsetsIngo Molnar
add optional input and output offsets to sys_splice(), for seekable file descriptors: asmlinkage long sys_splice(int fd_in, loff_t __user *off_in, int fd_out, loff_t __user *off_out, size_t len, unsigned int flags); semantics are straightforward: f_pos will be updated with the offset provided by user-space, before the splice transfer is about to begin. Providing a NULL offset pointer means the existing f_pos will be used (and updated in situ). Providing an offset for a pipe results in -ESPIPE. Providing an invalid offset pointer results in -EFAULT.

2006-04-10[PATCH] introduce a "kernel-internal pipe object" abstractionIngo Molnar
separate out the 'internal pipe object' abstraction, and make it usable to splice. This cleans up and fixes several aspects of the internal splice APIs and the pipe code: - pipes: the allocation and freeing of pipe_inode_info is now more symmetric and more streamlined with existing kernel practices. - splice: small micro-optimization: less pointer dereferencing in splice methods Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Update XFS for the ->splice_read/->splice_write changes.

2006-04-10[PATCH] splice: be smarter about calling do_page_cache_readahead()Jens Axboe
We don't want to call into the read-ahead logic unless we are at the start of a page, _or_ we have multiple pages to read. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>
2006-04-10[PATCH] splice: optimize the splice buffer mappingJens Axboe
We don't really need to lock down the pages, just make sure they are uptodate. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>
2006-04-10[PATCH] splice: cleanup __generic_file_splice_read()Jens Axboe
The whole shadow/pages logic got overly complex, and this simpler approach is actually faster in testing. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>
2006-04-10[PATCH] splice: only call wake_up_interruptible() when we really have toJens Axboe
__wake_up_common() is pretty heavy in the kernel profiles, this brings it down to a more acceptable level. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>
2006-04-10[PATCH] splice: potential !page dereferenceDave Jones

2006-04-10[PATCH] splice: mark the io page as accessedJens Axboe

2006-04-09[TG3]: Speed up SRAM access (2nd version)Michael Chan
Speed up SRAM read and write functions if possible by using MMIO instead of config. cycles. With this change, the post reset signature done at the end of D3 power change must now be moved before the D3 power change. IBM reported a problem on powerpc blades during ethtool self test that was caused by the memory test taking excessively long. Config. cycles are very slow on powerpc and the memory test can take more than 10 seconds to complete using config. cycles. David Miller informed me that an earlier version of the patch caused problems on sparc64 systems with built-in tg3 chips. This version fixes the problem by excluding all SUN built-in tg3 chips from doing MMIO SRAM access. TG3_FLAG_EEPROM_WRITE_PROT is also set unconditionally when TG3_FLG2_SUN_570X is set. This should be sane as all SUN chips are built-in and do not require Vaux switching. Signed-off-by: Michael Chan <mchan@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2006-04-09[IRDA]: Support for Sigmatel STIR421x chipSamuel Ortiz
This patch enables support for the Sigmatel's STIR421x IrDA chip. Once patched with Sigmatel's firmware, this chip "almost" follows the USB-IrDA spec. Thus this patch is against irda-usb.[ch].

2006-04-09[IRDA]: smcinit merged into smsc-ircc driverLinus Walleij
This patch integrates the smcinit code into the smsc-ircc driver. Some laptops have their smsc-ircc chip not properly configured by the BIOS and needs some preconfiguration. Currently, this can be done from userspace with smcinit, a utility that comes with the irda-utils package. It messes with ioports and PCI settings, from userspace. Now with this patch, if we happen to be on one of the known to be faulty laptops, we preconfigure the chip from the driver.

2006-04-09[INET]: Use port unreachable instead of proto for tunnelsHerbert Xu

2006-04-09[INET]: Move no-tunnel ICMP error to tunnel4/tunnel6Herbert Xu
This patch moves the sending of ICMP messages when there are no IPv4/IPv6 tunnels present to tunnel4/tunnel6 respectively. Please note that for now if xfrm4_tunnel/xfrm6_tunnel is loaded then no ICMP messages will ever be sent. This is similar to how we handle AH/ESP/IPCOMP. This move fixes the bug where we always send an ICMP message when there is no ip6_tunnel device present for a given packet even if it is later handled by IPsec. It also causes ICMP messages to be sent when no IPIP tunnel is present. I've decided to use the "port unreachable" ICMP message over the current value of "address unreachable" (and "protocol unreachable" by GRE) because it is not ambiguous unlike the other ones which can be triggered by other conditions. There seems to be no standard specifying what value must be used so this change should be OK. In fact we should change GRE to use this value as well. Incidentally, this patch also fixes a fairly serious bug in xfrm6_tunnel where we don't check whether the embedded IPv6 header is present before dereferencing it for the inside source address. This patch is inspired by a previous patch by Hugo Santos <hsantos@av.it.pt>. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
