When changing the link between 100Mbps and 1Gbps in SGMII mode it was found out that the link would stop working. The issue is that ECNTRL[R100] needs to be cleared when in 1Gbps mode. Older reference manuals didn't require the explicitly clearing but has since been found it that it is needed.

The AF_CAN core delivered always cloned sk_buffs to the AF_CAN protocols, although this was _only_ needed by the can-raw protocol. With this (additionally documented) change, the AF_CAN core calls the callback functions of the registered AF_CAN protocols with the original (uncloned) sk_buff pointer and let's the can-raw protocol do the skb_clone() itself which omits all unneeded skb_clone() calls for other AF_CAN protocols.

Some cheap devices ship with dangling EEPROM pins! They always return invalid address ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff. Inherit the auto-generated address in this case, so that these products can work with zero configuration.

This patch adds GRO interfaces for hardware-assisted VLAN reception. With this in place we're now at parity with LRO as far as the interface is concerned. That is, you can now take any LRO driver and convert it over to GRO. As the CB memory clashes with GRO's use of CB, I've removed it entirely by storing dev in skb->dev. This is OK because VLAN gets called first thing in netif_receive_skb and skb->dev is not used in between us calling netif_rx and netif_receive_skb getting called.

Previously GRO's only entry point from the outside is through napi_gro_receive and napi_gro_frags. These interfaces are for device drivers. This patch rearranges things to provide a new set of interfaces for VLANs. These interfaces are for internal use only. The VLAN code itself can then provide a set of entry points for device drivers.

These variables are only used with an interface that just dumps their values into registers to be passed to the hypervisor. The arguments to that interface are declared to be "unsigned long", so make these variables match. The macros are only used with these variables, so make them match as well. This code is currently only built for 64bit powerpc, so the transformation is really a noop. If the interface was ever ported to 32 bit, it would almost certainly still use registers to pass the parameters and so "unsigned long" would still be appropriate.

ehea_plpar_hcall9() takes an "unsigned long" array to return its results, so change the arrays we pass to it to match. This is currently only 64 bit code, so the transformation is actually a noop, but because ehea_plpar_hcall9() copies the values of registers into the array, if this was ported to a 32 bit hypervisor interface "unsigned long" would probably still be the correct type.

Implement simple read-only sysfs entry for device-mapper block device. This patch adds a simple sysfs directory named "dm" under block device properties and implements - name attribute (string containing mapped device name) - uuid attribute (string containing UUID, or empty string if not set) The kobject is embedded in mapped_device struct, so no additional memory allocation is needed for initializing sysfs entry. During the processing of sysfs attribute we need to lock mapped device which is done by a new function dm_get_from_kobj, which returns the md associated with kobject and increases the usage count. Each 'show attribute' function is responsible for its own locking. Signed-off-by: Milan Broz <mbroz@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>

Rework table reference counting. The existing code uses a reference counter. When the last reference is dropped and the counter reaches zero, the table destructor is called. Table reference counters are acquired/released from upcalls from other kernel code (dm_any_congested, dm_merge_bvec, dm_unplug_all). If the reference counter reaches zero in one of the upcalls, the table destructor is called from almost random kernel code. This leads to various problems: * dm_any_congested being called under a spinlock, which calls the destructor, which calls some sleeping function. * the destructor attempting to take a lock that is already taken by the same process. * stale reference from some other kernel code keeps the table constructed, which keeps some devices open, even after successful return from "dmsetup remove". This can confuse lvm and prevent closing of underlying devices or reusing device minor numbers. The patch changes reference counting so that the table destructor can be called only at predetermined places. The table has always exactly one reference from either mapped_device->map or hash_cell->new_map. After this patch, this reference is not counted in table->holders. A pair of dm_create_table/dm_destroy_table functions is used for table creation/destruction. Temporary references from the other code increase table->holders. A pair of dm_table_get/dm_table_put functions is used to manipulate it. When the table is about to be destroyed, we wait for table->holders to reach 0. Then, we call the table destructor. We use active waiting with msleep(1), because the situation happens rarely (to one user in 5 years) and removing the device isn't performance-critical task: the user doesn't care if it takes one tick more or not. This way, the destructor is called only at specific points (dm_table_destroy function) and the above problems associated with lazy destruction can't happen. Finally remove the temporary protection added to dm_any_congested(). Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>

Implement barrier support for single device DM devices This patch implements barrier support in DM for the common case of dm linear just remapping a single underlying device. In this case we can safely pass the barrier through because there can be no reordering between devices. NB. Any DM device might cease to support barriers if it gets reconfigured so code must continue to allow for a possible -EOPNOTSUPP on every barrier bio submitted. - agk Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>

This patch adds the following target interfaces for request-based dm. map_rq : for mapping a request rq_end_io : for finishing a request busy : for avoiding performance regression from bio-based dm. Target can tell dm core not to map requests now, and that may help requests in the block layer queue to be bigger by I/O merging. In bio-based dm, this behavior is done by device drivers managing the block layer queue. But in request-based dm, dm core has to do that since dm core manages the block layer queue.

rw_header function updates three members of io_req data every time when I/O is processed. bi_rw and notify.fn are never modified once they get initialized, and so they can be set in advance. header_to_disk() can also be pulled out of write_header() since only one caller needs it and write_header() can be replaced by rw_header() directly.

Change dm_unregister_target to return void and use BUG() for error reporting. dm_unregister_target can only fail because of programming bug in the target driver. It can't fail because of user's behavior or disk errors. This patch changes unregister_target to return void and use BUG if someone tries to unregister non-registered target or unregister target that is in use. This patch removes code duplication (testing of error codes in all dm targets) and reports bugs in just one place, in dm_unregister_target. In some target drivers, these return codes were ignored, which could lead to a situation where bugs could be missed.

Always increase the error count when I/O on a leg of a mirror fails. The error count is used to decide whether to select an alternative mirror leg. If the target doesn't use the "handle_errors" feature, the error count is not updated and the bio can get requeued forever by the read callback. Fix it by increasing error_count before the handle_errors feature checking.
