19 years ago[PATCH] yenta: don't mess with bridge control register
Daniel Ritz [Wed, 24 Aug 2005 15:03:23 +0000 (17:03 +0200)]
[PATCH] yenta: don't mess with bridge control register

In interrupt probing (both ISA and PCI) the bridge control register is used
to change interrupt routing to ISA or PCI by changing bit 7.  But this bit
only controls the routing of card functional interrupts, not the CSC
interrupts which are used for interrupt probing.

A bad side effect of messing with this register in yenta_probe_irq() is
that it can lead to irq storms if a card is inserted and already powered by
the BIOS.

Usage in yenta_sock_init() and yenta_config_init() seem to be fishy as well.

[PATCH] yenta: auto-tune EnE bridges for CardBus cards

Echo Audio cardbus products are known to be incompatible with EnE bridges.
in order to maybe solve the problem a EnE specific test bit has to be set,
another cleared...but other setups have a good chance to break when just
forcing the bits.  so do the whole thingy automatically.

The other one is on non-LPAR machines (like Apple G5s), flush_hash_range()

This patch fixes a number of bugs.  It cannot be reasonably split up in
multiple fixes, since all bugs interact with each other and affect the same
function:

Bug #1:
The event cache code cannot be called while a lock is held.  Therefore, the
call to ip_conntrack_event_cache() within ip_ct_refresh_acct() needs to be

oops and deadlock reports.

Bug #2:
We used to call ct_add_counters() for unconfirmed connections without
holding a lock.  Since the add operations are not atomic, we could race
with another CPU.

Bug #3:
ip_ct_refresh_acct() lost REFRESH events in some cases where refresh
(and the corresponding event) are desired, but no accounting shall be
performed.  Both, evenst and accounting implicitly depended on the skb
parameter bein non-null.   We now re-introduce a non-accounting
"ip_ct_refresh()" variant to explicitly state the desired behaviour.

[TCP]: Adjust Reno SACK estimate in tcp_fragment

Since the introduction of TSO pcount a year ago, it has been possible
for tcp_fragment() to cause packets_out to decrease.  Prior to that,
tcp_retrans_try_collapse() was the only way for that to happen on the
retransmission path.

When this happens with Reno, it is possible for sasked_out to become
invalid because it is only an estimate and not tied to any particular
packet on the retransmission queue.

Therefore we need to adjust sacked_out as well as left_out in the Reno
case.  The following patch does exactly that.

This bug is pretty difficult to trigger in practice though since you
need a SACKless peer with a retransmission that occurs just as the
cached MTU value expires.

19 years ago[PATCH] Fix bd_claim() error code.
Rob Landley [Fri, 23 Sep 2005 04:44:27 +0000 (21:44 -0700)]
[PATCH] Fix bd_claim() error code.

Problem: In some circumstances, bd_claim() is returning the wrong error
code.

If we try to swapon an unused block device that isn't swap formatted, we
get -EINVAL.  But if that same block device is already mounted, we instead
get -EBUSY, even though it still isn't a valid swap device.

This issue came up on the busybox list trying to get the error message
from "swapon -a" right.  If a swap device is already enabled, we get -EBUSY,
and we shouldn't report this as an error.  But we can't distinguish the two
-EBUSY conditions, which are very different errors.

In the code, bd_claim() returns either 0 or -EBUSY, but in this case busy
means "somebody other than sys_swapon has already claimed this", and
_that_ means this block device can't be a valid swap device.  So return
-EINVAL there.

[PATCH] uml: avoid fixing faults while atomic

Following i386, we should maybe refuse trying to fault in pages when we're
doing atomic operations, because to handle the fault we could need to take
already taken spinlocks.

Also, if we're doing an atomic operation (in the sense of in_atomic()) we're
surely in kernel mode and we're surely going to handle adequately the failed
fault, so it's safe to behave this way.

Currently, on UML SMP is rarely used, and we don't support PREEMPT, so this is
unlikely to create problems right now, but it might in the future.

The current code doesn't handle well general protection faults on the host -

general protection faults, that address is not accessible, so we'd better
assume we couldn't satisfy the fault.  Currently instead we think we've fixed
it, so we go back, retry the instruction and fault again endlessly.

This leads to the kernel hanging when doing copy_from_user(dest, -1, ...) in
TT mode, since reading *(-1) causes a GFP, and we don't support kernel
