2009-10-26e1000e: allow for swflag to be held over consecutive PHY accessesBruce Allan
PCH-based parts (82577/82578) and some ICH8-based parts (82566) need to hold the swflag (sw/fw/hw hardware semaphore) over consecutive PHY accesses in order to perform sw-driven PHY configuration during initialization to workaround known hardware issues (see follow-on patch). This patch provides new PHY read/write functions (and function pointers) that will allow accessing the PHY registers assuming the swflag has already been acquired. The actual PHY register access code has moved into helper functions that are called with a flag indicating whether or not the swflag has already been acquired and acquires/releases it if not. The functions called from within the updated PHY access functions had to be updated to assume the swflag was already acquired, and other functions that called those functions were also updated to acquire/release the swflag.

2009-10-26e1000e: separate mutex usage between NVM and PHY/CSR register for ICHx/PCHBruce Allan
Accesses to NVM and PHY/CSR registers on ICHx/PCH-based parts are protected from concurrent accesses with a mutex that is acquired when the access is initiated and released when the access has completed. However, the two types of accesses should not be protected by the same mutex because the driver may have to access the NVM while already holding the mutex over several consecutive PHY/CSR accesses which would result in livelock.

2009-10-26e1000e: increase swflag acquisition timeout for ICHx/PCHBruce Allan
In some conditions (e.g. when AMT is enabled on the system), it is possible to take an extended period of time to for the driver to acquire the sw/fw/hw hardware semaphore used to protect against concurrent access of a shared resource (e.g. PHY registers). This could cause PHY registers to not get configured properly resulting in link issues.

2009-10-26igb: fix memory leak when setting ring size while interface is downAlexander Duyck
Changing ring sizes while the interface was down was causing a double allocation of the receive and transmit rings. This issue is amplified when there are multiple rings enabled. To prevent this we need to add an additional check which will just update the ring counts when the interface is not up and skip the allocation steps.

2009-10-27sh: Fix hugetlbfs dependencies for SH-3 && MMU configurations.Paul Mundt
The hugetlb dependencies presently depend on SUPERH && MMU while the hugetlb page size definitions depend on CPU_SH4 or CPU_SH5. This unfortunately allows SH-3 + MMU configurations to enable hugetlbfs without a corresponding HPAGE_SHIFT definition, resulting in the build blowing up. As SH-3 doesn't support variable page sizes, we tighten up the dependenies a bit to prevent hugetlbfs from being enabled. These days we also have a shiny new SYS_SUPPORTS_HUGETLBFS, so switch to using that rather than adding to the list of corner cases in fs/Kconfig.

commit 0762b8bde9729f10f8e6249809660ff2ec3ad735 (from 14 months ago) introduced a use-after-free bug which has just recently started manifesting in my md testing. I tried git bisect to find out what caused the bug to start manifesting, and it could have been the recent change to blk_unregister_queue (48c0d4d4c04) but the results were inconclusive.

2009-10-26sh: Check for return_to_handler when unwinding the stackMatt Fleming
When CONFIG_FUNCTION_GRAPH_TRACER is enabled the function graph tracer may patch return addresses on the stack with the address of return_to_handler(). This really confuses the DWARF unwinder because it will try find the caller of return_to_handler(), not the caller of the real return address. So teach the DWARF unwinder how to find the real return address whenever it encounters return_to_handler(). This patch does not cope very well when multiple return addresses on the stack have been patched. To make it work properly it would require state to track how many return_to_handler()'s have been seen so that we'd know where to look in current->curr_ret_stack[]. So for now, instead of trying to handle this, just moan if more than one return address on the stack has been patched.

2009-10-24r8169: fix Ethernet Hangup for RTL8110SC rev dSimon Wunderlich
The 8110SC rev d chip on our board shows a regression which the 8110SB chip did not have. When inbound traffic is overflowing the receive descriptor queue, "holes" in the ring buffer may occur which lead to a hangup until the buffer is filled again. The packets are than completely processed, but the ring remains porous and no packets are processed until the next overflow. Setting the interface down and up can fix the problem temporary from userspace. For some reason we don't know, this behaviour is not occuring if the RxVlan bit for hardware VLAN untagging is set. There is another "Work around for AMD plateform" in the current code which checks the VLAN status word in receive descriptors, but does never come to effect when hardware VLAN support is enabled. We assume that this is a bug in the chip. The following patch fixes the problem. Without the patch we could reproduce the hang within minutes (given other devices also generating lots of interrupts), without we couldn't reproduce within a few days of long term testing. This version contains minor style adjustments and is sent with mutt which will hopefully not destroy the formatting again.

trace_seq_printf() return value is a little ambiguous. It currently returns the length of the space available in the buffer. printf usually returns the amount written. This is not adequate here, because: trace_seq_printf(s, ""); is perfectly legal, and returning 0 would indicate that it failed. We can always see the amount written by looking at the before and after values of s->len. This is not quite the same use as printf. We only care if the string was successfully written to the buffer or not. Make trace_seq_printf() return 0 if the trace oversizes the buffer's free space, 1 otherwise.

2009-10-23NFSv4: Fix a bug when the server returns NFS4ERR_RESOURCETrond Myklebust
RFC 3530 states that when we recieve the error NFS4ERR_RESOURCE, we are not supposed to bump the sequence number on OPEN, LOCK, LOCKU, CLOSE, etc operations. The problem is that we map that error into EREMOTEIO in the XDR layer, and so the NFSv4 middle-layer routines like seqid_mutating_err(), and nfs_increment_seqid() don't recognise it.

Actually pass the NFS_FILE_SYNC option to the server to avoid a Panic in nfs_direct_write_complete() when a commit fails. At the end of an nfs write, if the nfs commit fails, all the writes will be rescheduled. They are supposed to be rescheduled as NFS_FILE_SYNC writes, but the rpc_task structure is not completely intialized and so the option is not passed. When the rescheduled writes complete, the return indicates that they are NFS_UNSTABLE and we try to do another commit. This leads to a Panic because the commit data structure pointer was set to null in the initial (failed) commit attempt.
