This patch further tweaks how we request control of hotplug controller hardware from BIOS. We first search the ACPI namespace corresponding to a specific hotplug controller looking for an _OSC or OSHP method. On failure, we successively move to the ACPI parent object, till we hit the highest level host bridge in the hierarchy. This allows for different types of BIOS's which place the _OSC/OSHP methods at various places in the acpi namespace, while still not encroaching on the namespace of some other root level host bridge. This patch also introduces a new load time option (pciehp_force) that allows us to bypass all _OSC/OSHP checking. Not supporting these methods seems to be be the most common ACPI firmware problem we've run into. This will still _not_ allow the pciehp driver to work correctly if the BIOS really doesn't support pciehp (i.e. if it doesn't generate a hotplug interrupt). Use this option with caution. Some BIOS's may deliberately not build any _OSC/OSHP methods to make sure it retains control the hotplug hardware. Using the pciehp_force parameter for such systems can lead to two separate entities trying to control the same hardware.

This patch tweaks the way pciehp requests control of the hotplug hardware from BIOS. It now tries to invoke the ACPI _OSC method for a specific hotplug controller only, rather than walking the entire acpi namespace invoking all possible _OSC methods under all host bridges. This allows us to gain control of each hotplug controller individually, even if BIOS fails to give us control of some other hotplug controller in the system.

Reduce the number of debug messages generated if pciehp debug is enabled. I tried to restrict this to removing debug messages that are either early-driver-debug type messages, or print information that can be inferred through other debug prints.

State information is currently stored in per-slot as well as per-pci-function data structures in pciehp. There's a lot of overlap in the information kept, and some of it is never used. This patch consolidates the state information to per-slot and eliminates unused data structures. The biggest change is to eliminate the pci_func structure and the code around managing its lists.

Reduce the PCI Express hotplug driver's dependence on ACPI. We don't walk the acpi namespace anymore to build a list of bridges and devices. We go to ACPI only to run the _OSC or _OSHP methods to transition control of hotplug hardware from system BIOS to the hotplug driver, and to run the _HPP method to get hotplug device parameters like cache line size, latency timer and SERR/PERR enable from BIOS. Note that one of the side effects of this patch is that pciehp does not automatically enable the hot-added device or its DMA bus mastering capability now. It expects the device driver to do that. This may break some drivers and we will have to fix them as they are reported. Signed-off-by: Rajesh Shah <rajesh.shah@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

This patch converts the pci express hotplug controller driver to use the PCI core for resource management. This eliminates a lot of duplicated code and integrates pciehp with the system's normal PCI handling code.

Some devices have more than one capability of the same type. For example, the PCI header for the PathScale InfiniPath looks like: 04:01.0 InfiniBand: Unknown device 1fc1:000d (rev 02) Subsystem: Unknown device 1fc1:000d Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 193 Memory at fea00000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=2M] Capabilities: [c0] HyperTransport: Slave or Primary Interface Capabilities: [f8] HyperTransport: Interrupt Discovery and Configuration There are _two_ HyperTransport capabilities, and the PathScale driver wants to look at both of them. The current pci_find_capability() API doesn't work for this, since it only allows us to get to the first capability of a given type. The patch below introduces a new pci_find_next_capability(), which can be used in a loop like for (pos = pci_find_capability(pdev, <ID>); pos; pos = pci_find_next_capability(pdev, pos, <ID>)) { /* ... */ } Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com> Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox <matthew@wil.cx> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

The protocol field in ethernet headers is big-endian and should be annotated as such. This patch allows detection of missing ntohs() calls on the ethernet protocol field when sparse is run with __CHECK_ENDIAN__ defined. This is a revised version that includes <linux/types.h> so that the userspace programs are not confused by __be16. Thanks to David S. Miller.

Here is the patch that introduces the generic skb_checksum_complete which also checks for hardware RX checksum faults. If that happens, it'll call netdev_rx_csum_fault which currently prints out a stack trace with the device name. In future it can turn off RX checksum. I've converted every spot under net/ that does RX checksum checks to use skb_checksum_complete or __skb_checksum_complete with the exceptions of: * Those places where checksums are done bit by bit. These will call netdev_rx_csum_fault directly. * The following have not been completely checked/converted: ipmr ip_vs netfilter dccp This patch is based on patches and suggestions from Stephen Hemminger and David S. Miller. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

I have to revert the recent addition of -imacros to the Makefile to get my tool chain to build. Without the change, below, I get: Note that this looks entirely like a toolchain bug. Here is the offending command: [pid 12163] execve("/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/3.2.2/tradcpp0", ["/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/3.2.2/tradcpp0", "-lang-asm", "-nostdinc", "-Iinclude", "-Iinclude/asm-i386/mach-default", "-D__GNUC__=3", "-D__GNUC_MINOR__=2", "-D__GNUC_PATCHLEVEL__=2", "-D__GXX_ABI_VERSION=102", "-D__ELF__", "-Dunix", "-D__gnu_linux__", "-Dlinux", "-D__ELF__", "-D__unix__", "-D__gnu_linux__", "-D__linux__", "-D__unix", "-D__linux", "-Asystem=posix", "-D__NO_INLINE__", "-D__STDC_HOSTED__=1", "-Acpu=i386", "-Amachine=i386", "-Di386", "-D__i386", "-D__i386__", "-D__tune_i386__", "-D__KERNEL__", "-D__ASSEMBLY__", "-isystem", "/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/3.2.2/include", "-imacros", "include/linux/autoconf.h", "-MD", "arch/i386/kernel/.entry.o.d", "arch/i386/kernel/entry.S", "-o", "/tmp/ccOlsFJR.s"] Which should execute properly, I think. But it does not: zach-dev:linux-2.6.14-zach-work $ make CHK include/linux/version.h CHK include/linux/compile.h CHK usr/initramfs_list AS arch/i386/kernel/entry.o /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/3.2.2/tradcpp0: output filename specified twice make[1]: *** [arch/i386/kernel/entry.o] Error 1 make: *** [arch/i386/kernel] Error 2 gcc (GCC) 3.2.2 20030222 (Red Hat Linux 3.2.2-5) Deprecating the -imacros fixes the build for me. It does not appear to be a simple argument overflow problem in trapcpp0, since deprecating all the defines reproduces the problem as well. Also, switching -imacros to -include fixes the problem.

XPC (as in arch/ia64/sn/kernel/xp*) has a need to notify other partitions (SGI Altix) whenever a partition is going down in order to get them to disengage from accessing the halting partition's memory. If this is not done before the reset of the hardware, the other partitions can find themselves encountering MCAs that bring them down.

Move the computation of QP capabilities (max scatter/gather entries, max inline data, etc) into the kernel, and have the uverbs module return the values as part of the create QP response. This keeps precise knowledge of device limits in the low-level kernel driver. This requires an ABI bump, so while we're making changes, get rid of the max_sge parameter for the modify SRQ command -- it's not used and shouldn't be there.

Change the struct ib_device.resize_cq() method to take a plain integer that holds the new CQ size, rather than a pointer to an integer that it uses to return the new size. This makes the interface match the exported ib_resize_cq() signature, and allows the low-level driver to update the CQ size with proper locking if necessary. No in-tree drivers are exporting this method yet. Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
