[PATCH] s390: lcs driver bug fixes and improvements [1/2]
Several problems occured with lcs device driver:
- device not operational anymore after cable pull/plug-in.
- unpredictable results occured, e.g. kernel panic
using cards of type QD8F.
- STOPLAN and delete multicast address command
were not proper recognized by OSA card under heavy network workload.
- channel/device error checks missing in interrupt handler.
To fix all problems at once recovery of lcs devices has been improved.
missing error checks in lcs interrupt handler has been added.
Once a hardware problem occurs lcs will recover the device now properly.

- fix fake_ll during initial device bringup. fake_ll was
not active after first start of the device.
Problem only occured when qeth was built without IPV6 support.
- avoid skb usage after invocation of qeth_flush_buffers,
because skb might already be freed.
- remove yet another useless netif_wake_queue in
qeth_softsetup_ipv6 since this function is only called
when device is going online. In this case card->state will
never be in state UP. So let the net_device queue down .

During a code scan for another change I discovered that this call to
pcnet32_free_ring must be removed. If the open fails due to a lack of
memory all the ring structures are removed via the call to free_ring
and a subsequent call to open will dereference a null pointer in
pcnet32_init_ring.
Please apply to 2.6.17.

It looks like metapage_releasepage was making in invalid assumption that
the releasepage method would not be called on a dirty page. Instead of

that the private data for the page cannot be released.
I also realized that metapage_releasepage had the return code all wrong. If
it is successful in releasing the private data, it should return 1, otherwise
it needs to return 0.
Lastly, there is no need to call wait_on_page_writeback, since
try_to_release_page will not call us with a page in writback state.

[PATCH] ibmveth change buffer pools dynamically
This patch provides a sysfs interface to change some properties of the
ibmveth buffer pools (size of the buffers, number of buffers per pool,
and whether a pool is active). Ethernet drivers use ethtool to provide
this type of functionality. However, the buffers in the ibmveth driver
can have an arbitrary size (not only regular, mini, and jumbo which are
the only sizes that ethtool can change), and also ibmveth can have an
arbitrary number of buffer pools
Under heavy load we have seen dropped packets which obviously kills TCP
performance. We have created several fixes that mitigate this issue,
but we definitely need a way of changing the number of buffers for an
adapter dynamically. Also, changing the size of the buffers allows
users to change the MTU to something big (bigger than a jumbo frame)
greatly improving performance on partition to partition transfers.
The patch creates directories pool1...pool4 in the device directory in
sysfs, each with files: num, size, and active (which default to the
values in the mainline version).
Comments and suggestions are welcome...

handler would initialize s_rdma_sge, then node A's sending thread would
