The orinoco driver can send uninitialized data exposing random pieces of the system memory. This happens because data is not padded with zeroes when its length needs to be increased.

Drop global bit from early low mappings Suggested by Linus, originally also proposed by Suresh. This fixes a race condition with early start of udev, originally tracked down by Suresh B. Siddha. The problem was that switching to the user space VM would not clear the global low mappings for the beginning of memory, which lead to memory corruption. Drop the global bits. The kernel mapping stays global because it should stay constant. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

Patch from Sascha Hauer Current implementation of imx_gpio_mode does not allow to configure all alternate routing possibilities of the i.MX. With this patch every bit in the gpio setup registers has a corresponding bit in the gpio_mode parameter, so every routing should be possible now.

The old code had the IP and SP coming from the registers in the thread struct, which are completely wrong since those are the userspace registers. This fixes that by pulling the correct values from the jmp_buf in which the kernel state of each thread is stored.

bfs_fill_super() walks the inode table to get the bitmap of free inodes and collect stats. It has no business using iget() for that - it's a lot of extra work, extra icache pollution and more complex code. Switched to walking the damn thing directly. Note: that also allows to kill ->i_dsk_ino in there - separate patch if Tigran can confirm that this field can be zero only for deleted inodes (i.e. something that could only be found during that scan and not by normal lookups).

The patch below introduces special thresholds to keep root node in the trie large. This gives a flatter tree at the cost of a modest memory increase. Overall it seems to be gain and this was also proposed by one the authors of the paper in recent a seminar. Main table after loading 123 k routes. Aver depth: 3.30 Max depth: 9 Root-node size 12 bits Total size: 4044 kB With the patch: Aver depth: 2.78 Max depth: 8 Root-node size 15 bits Total size: 4150 kB An increase of 8-10% was seen in forwading performance for an rDoS attack.

Replicate IGMP frames across all slaves in activebackup mode. This ensures fail-over is rapid for multicast traffic as well. Otherwise, multicast traffic will be lost until the next IGMP membership report poll timeout. This is conceptually similar to the treatment of IGMP traffic in bond_alb_xmit. In that case, IGMP traffic transmitted on any slave is re-routed to the active slave in order to ensure that multicast traffic continues to be directed to the active receiver. Signed-off-by: John W.

Fixes for packet split related issues * On platforms where PAGE_SIZE > 4K, driver will use only required number of pages compared to always using 3 pages. * Packet split won't be used if the PAGE_SIZE is > 16K * Adds a statistics counter to splits. * Setting the non Null ptr to zero sized buffers to solve packet split receive descriptor error * When the no of pages needed is calculated, the header buffer is not included for a given MTU.

This patch adds support for MSI/MSI-X feature to the driver. It is a runtime parameter(for now, loadable parameter). Default is INTA. Patch has been tested on IA64 platform with Xframe II adapter, both of which support MSI-X feature. An improvement of about 7% in throughput(both Tx and Rx) was observed and a reduction by 7% in CPU utilization during Tx test.
