      [netdrvr] b44: handle excessive multicast groups · 2f614fe0
      Jeff Garzik authored
      If there are more than B44_MCAST_TABLE_SIZE groups in the dev->mc_list,
      it will only listen to the first B44_MCAST_TABLE_SIZE that it sees.
      
      This change makes the driver go into RXCONFIG_ALLMULTI mode if there
      are more than B44_MCAST_TABLE_SIZE groups being subscribed to, similar
      to other network drivers.

      [PATCH] bonding: fix deadlock on high loads in bond_alb_monitor() · 39984a9f
      Karsten Keil authored
      In bond_alb_monitor the bond->curr_slave_lock write lock is taken
      and then dev_set_promiscuity maybe called which can take some time,
      depending on the network HW. If a network IRQ for this card come in
      the softirq handler maybe try to deliver more packets which end up in
      a request to the read lock of bond->curr_slave_lock -> deadlock.
      This issue was found by a test lab during network stress tests, this patch
      disable the softirq handler for this case and solved the issue.

      [PATCH] ibmveth: fix int rollover panic · 751ae21c
      Santiago Leon authored
      This patch fixes a nasty bug that has been sitting there since the
      very first versions of the driver, but is generating a panic because
      we changed the number of 2K buffers for 2.6.16.
      
      The consumer_index and producer_index are u32's that get incremented
      on every buffer emptied and replenished respectively.  We use
      the {producer,consumer}_index mod'ed with the size of the pool to
      pick out an entry in the free_map.  The problem happens when the
      u32 rolls over and the number of the buffers in the pool is not a
      perfect divisor of 2^32.  i.e. if the number of 2K buffers is 0x300,
      before the consumer_index rolls over,  our index to the free map =
      0xffffffff mod 0x300 = 0xff.  The next time a buffer is emptied, we
      want the index to the free map to be 0x100, but 0x0 mod 0x300 is 0x0.
      
      This patch assigns the mod'ed result back to the consumer and producer
      indexes so that they never roll over.  The second chunk of the patch
      covers the unlikely case where the consumer_index has just been reset
      to 0x0 and the hypervisor is not able to accept that buffer.

      [PATCH] ibmveth: rename proc entry name · 03a85d09
      Santiago Leon authored
      This patch changes the name of the proc file for each ibmveth adapter
      from the network device name to the slot number in the virtual bus.
      
      The proc file is created when the device is probed, so a change
      in the name of the device will not be reflected in the name of the
      proc file giving problems when identifying and removing the adapter.
      The slot number is a property that does not change through the life
      of the adapter so we use that instead.

      [PATCH] ibmveth: kdump interrupt fix · 4347ef15
      Santiago Leon authored
      This patch fixes a race that panics the kernel when opening the
      device after a kdump.  Without this patch there is a window where the
      hypervisor can send an interrupt before all the structures for the
      kdump ibmveth module are ready (because the hypervisor is not aware
      that the partition crashed and that the virtual driver is reloading).
      We close this window by disabling the interrupts before registering
      the adapter to the hypervisor.
      
      This patch depends on the "ibmveth: Harden driver initilisation" patch.

      [PATCH] ibmveth: Harden driver initilisation · bbedefcc
      Michael Ellerman authored
      This patch has been floating around for a while now, Santi originally
      sent it in March: http://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg00471.html
      
      After a kexec the ibmveth driver will fail when trying to register
      with the Hypervisor because the previous kernel has not unregistered.
      
      So if the registration fails, we unregister and then try again.
      
      We don't unconditionally unregister, because we don't want to disturb
      the regular code path for 99% of users.

      Stephen Hemminger authored
      The previous change to do fragmented receive (post 2.6.18) introduced a bug
      where packets are passed up with size set to the size of the receive buffer
      not the actual received data.  IP silently trims this so it didn't show up

      [PATCH] itmtouch: fix inverted flag to indicate touch location correctly, correct white space · 77dc2db6
      Mark Assad authored
      There is a bug in the current version of the itmtouch USB touchscreen
      driver.  The if statment that checks if pressure is being applied to the
      touch screen is now missing a ! (not), so events are no longer being
      reported correctly.
      
      The original source code for this line was as follows:
      
      	#define UCP(x) ((unsigned char*)(x))
      	#define UCOM(x,y,z) ((UCP((x)->transfer_buffer)[y]) & (z))
      
      	...
      	if (!UCOM(urb, 7, 0x20)) {
      
      And was cleaned to:
      
      	unsigned char *data = urb->transfer_buffer;
      	....
      	 if (data[7] & 0x20) {
      
      (note the lack of '!')
      
      This has been tested on an LG L1510BF and an LG1510SF touch screen.

      do_timer now wants to know how many ticks have elapsed.  Now that we
