Subject: natsemi: Allow users to disable workaround for DspCfg reset
The natsemi driver contains a workaround for broken hardware which can
partially reset the chip at unpredictable times, detected by checking for
spontaneous changes in the DspCfg register. The effects of the hardware
bug appear to be variable and can range from minor problems like small
numbers of corrupted packets to major ones such as the chip becoming
non-functional. In the case of minor problems the chip reconfiguration
required to work around the hardware can cause more problems than the bug
itself.
Since we have no way of automatically determining how badly the problem
manifests on any given system provide an option in sysfs allowing users to
disable the workaround at runtime and provides a module option to set the
default.

The driver now loads the aligned firmware, performs a MXGEFW_CMD_UNALIGNED_TEST,

Send as many I/O requests to the I/O thread as possible, even though it will
still only handle one at a time. This provides an opportunity to reduce
latency by starting one request before the previous one has been finished in
the driver.
Request handling is somewhat modernized by requesting sg pieces of a request
and handling them separately, finishing off the entire request after all the
pieces are done.
When a request queue stalls, normally because its pipe to the I/O thread is
full, it is put on the restart list. This list is processed by starting up
the queues on it whenever there is some indication that progress might be
possible again. Currently, this happens in the driver interrupt routine.
Some requests have been finished, so there is likely to be room in the pipe
again.
This almost doubles throughput when copying data between devices, but made no
noticable difference on anything else I tried.

uml: start fixing os_read_file and os_write_file
This patch starts the removal of a very old, very broken piece of code. This
stems from the problem of passing a userspace buffer into read() or write() on
the host. If that buffer had not yet been faulted in, read and write will
return -EFAULT.
To avoid this problem, the solution was to fault the buffer in before the
system call by touching the pages that hold the buffer by doing a copy-user of
a byte to each page. This is obviously bogus, but it does usually work, in tt
mode, since the kernel and process are in the same address space and userspace
addresses can be accessed directly in the kernel.
In skas mode, where the kernel and process are in separate address spaces, it
is completely bogus because the userspace address, which is invalid in the
kernel, is passed into the system call instead of the corresponding physical
address, which would be valid. Here, it appears that this code, on every host
read() or write(), tries to fault in a random process page. This doesn't seem
to cause any correctness problems, but there is a performance impact. This
patch, and the ones following, result in a 10-15% performance gain on a kernel
build.
This code can't be immediately tossed out because when it is, you can't log
in. Apparently, there is some code in the console driver which depends on
this somehow.
However, we can start removing it by switching the code which does I/O using
kernel addresses to using plain read() and write(). This patch introduces
os_read_file_k and os_write_file_k for use with kernel buffers and converts
all call locations which use obvious kernel buffers to use them. These
include I/O using buffers which are local variables which are on the stack or
kmalloc-ed. Later patches will handle the less obvious cases, followed by a
mass conversion back to the original interface.
