bdbcdd4888 x86: uv cleanup
Impact: cleanup

Make the following uv related cleanups.

* collect visible uv related definitions and interfaces into uv/uv.h
  and use it.  this cleans up the messy situation where on 64bit, uv
  is defined properly, on 32bit generic it's dummy and on the rest
  undefined.  after this clean up, uv is defined on 64 and dummy on
  32.

* update uv_flush_tlb_others() such that it takes cpumask of
  to-be-flushed cpus as argument, instead of that minus self, and
  returns yet-to-be-flushed cpumask, instead of modifying the passed
  in parameter.  this interface change will ease dummy implementation
  of uv_flush_tlb_others() and makes uv tlb flush related stuff
  defined in tlb_uv proper.

0dd76d736e x86: set %fs to __KERNEL_PERCPU unconditionally for x86_32
Impact: cleanup

%fs is currently set to __KERNEL_DS at boot, and conditionally
switched to __KERNEL_PERCPU for secondary cpus.  Instead, initialize
GDT_ENTRY_PERCPU to the same attributes as GDT_ENTRY_KERNEL_DS and
set %fs to __KERNEL_PERCPU unconditionally.

299e26992a x86: fix percpu_write with 64-bit constants
Impact: slightly better code generation for percpu_to_op()

The processor will sign-extend 32-bit immediate values in 64-bit
operations.  Use the 'e' constraint ("32-bit signed integer constant,
or a symbolic reference known to fit that range") for 64-bit constants.

c0e69a5bbc klist.c: bit 0 in pointer can't be used as flag
The commit a1ed5b0cff
(klist: don't iterate over deleted entries) introduces use of the
low bit in a pointer to indicate if the knode is dead or not,
assuming that this bit is always free.

This is not true for all architectures, CRIS for example may align data
on byte borders.

The result is a bunch of warnings on bootup, devices not being
added correctly etc, reported by Hinko Kocevar <hinko.kocevar@cetrtapot.si>:

That works, but we need to do it not for the struct klist_node,
but for the struct we insert into the void * in klist_node,
which is struct klist.

8adb711f36 debugfs: introduce stub for debugfs_create_size_t() when DEBUG_FS=n
Toralf Förster <toralf.foerster@gmx.de> reported a build failure in
the WiMAX stack when CONFIG_DEBUG_FS=n

http://linuxwimax.org/pipermail/wimax/2009-January/000449.html

This is due to debugfs_create_size_t() missing an stub that returns
-ENODEV when the DEBUGFS subsystem is not configured in (like the rest
of the debugfs API).

This patch adds said stub.

7143f7a1a3 driver core: Convert '/' to '!' in dev_set_name()
Commit 3ada8b7e ("block: struct device - replace bus_id with dev_name(),
dev_set_name()") deleted the code in register_disk() that changed a '/'
to a '!' in the device name when registering a disk, but dev_set_name()
does not perform this conversion.

This leads to amusing problems with disks that have '/' in their names:
for example a failure to boot with the root partition on a cciss device,
even though the kernel says it knows about the root device:

    VFS: Cannot open root device "cciss/c0d0p6" or unknown-block(0,0)
    Please append a correct "root=" boot option; here are the available partitions:
    6800        71652960 cciss/c0d0 driver: cciss
      6802               1 cciss/c0d0p2
      6805         2931831 cciss/c0d0p5
      6806        34354908 cciss/c0d0p6
    6810        71652960 cciss/c0d1 driver: cciss

Fix this by adding code to change '/' to '!' in dev_set_name() to handle
this until dev_set_name() is converted to use kobject_set_name().

37fe4732b9 gro: Fix merging of paged packets
The previous fix to paged packets broke the merging because it
reset the skb->len before we added it to the merged packet.  This
wasn't detected because it simply resulted in the truncation of
the packet while the missing bit is subsequently retransmitted.

The fix is to store skb->len before we clobber it.

92181f190b x86: optimise x86's do_page_fault (C entry point for the page fault path)
Impact: cleanup, restructure code to improve assembly

gcc isn't _all_ that smart about spilling registers to stack or reusing
stack slots, even with branch annotations. do_page_fault contained a lot
of functionality, so split unlikely paths into their own functions, and
mark them as noinline just to be sure. I consider this actually to be
somewhat of a cleanup too: the main function now contains about half
the number of lines so the normal path is easier to read, while the error
cases are also nicely split away.

Also, ensure the order of arguments to functions is always the same: regs,
addr, error_code. This can reduce code size a tiny bit, and just looks neater
too.

And add a couple of branch annotations.

Before:
  do_page_fault:
          subq    $360, %rsp      #,

After:
  do_page_fault:
          subq    $56, %rsp       #,

  add/remove: 8/0 grow/shrink: 0/1 up/down: 2222/-1680 (542)

  do_page_fault                               2464     784   -1680

Yes, the total size increases by 542 bytes, due to the extra function calls.
But these will very rarely be called (except for vmalloc_fault) in a normal
workload. Importantly, do_page_fault is less than 1/3rd it's original size,
and touches far less stack.

Existing gotos and branch hints did move a lot of the infrequently used text
out of the fastpath, but that's even further improved after this patch.

fcd26f7ae2 sparc64: Fix DAX handling via userspace access from kernel.
If we do a userspace access from kernel mode, and get a
data access exception, we need to check the exception
table just like a normal fault does.

The spitfire DAX handler was doing this, but such logic
was missing from the sun4v DAX code.

f4895b8bc8 wimax/i2400m: error paths that need to free an skb should use kfree_skb()
Roel Kluin reported a bug in two error paths where skbs were wrongly
being freed using kfree(). He provided a fix where it was replaced to
kfree_skb(), as it should be.

However, in i2400mu_rx(), the error path was missing returning an
indication of the failure. Changed to reset rx_skb to NULL and return
it to the caller, i2400mu_rxd(). It will be treated as a transient
error and just ignore the packet.

Depending on the buffering conditions inside the device, the data
packet might be dropped or the device will signal the host again for
data-ready-to-read and the host will retry.

fe65e70453 mv643xx_eth: prevent interrupt storm on ifconfig down
Contrary to what the docs say, the 'extended interrupt cause' bit in
the interrupt cause register (bit 1) appears to not be maskable on at
least some of the mv643xx_eth platforms, making writing zeroes to the
interrupt mask register but not the extended interrupt mask register
insufficient to stop interrupts from occuring.  Therefore, also write
zeroes to the extended interrupt mask register when shutting down the
port.

This fixes the interrupt storm seen on the Pegasos board when shutting
down the interface.

2b448334a2 mv643xx_eth: fix multicast filter programming
Commit 66e63ffbc0 ("mv643xx_eth:
implement ->set_rx_mode()") cleaned up mv643xx_eth's multicast filter
programming, but broke it as well.

The non-special multicast filter table (for multicast addresses that
are not of the form 01:00:5e:00:00:xx) consists of 256 hash table
buckets organised as 64 32-bit words, where the 'accept' bits are
in the LSB of each byte, so in bits 24 16 8 0 of each 32-bit word.
The old code got this right, but the referenced commit broke this by
using bits 3 2 1 0 instead.  This commit fixes this up.

This reverts commit cd4ccf76bf.

On the Pegasos board, we can't do DMA burst that are longer than
one cache line.  For now, go back to using 32 byte DMA bursts for
all mv643xx_eth platforms -- we can switch the ARM-based platforms
back to doing long 128 byte bursts in the next development cycle.

8b9d372897 net: Fix data corruption when splicing from sockets.
The trick in socket splicing where we try to convert the skb->data
into a page based reference using virt_to_page() does not work so
well.

The idea is to pass the virt_to_page() reference via the pipe
buffer, and refcount the buffer using a SKB reference.

But if we are splicing from a socket to a socket (via sendpage)
this doesn't work.

The from side processing will grab the page (and SKB) references.
The sendpage() calls will grab page references only, return, and
then the from side processing completes and drops the SKB ref.

The page based reference to skb->data is not enough to keep the
kmalloc() buffer backing it from being reused.  Yet, that is
all that the socket send side has at this point.

This leads to data corruption if the skb->data buffer is reused
by SLAB before the send side socket actually gets the TX packet
out to the device.

The fix employed here is to simply allocate a page and copy the
skb->data bytes into that page.

This will hurt performance, but there is no clear way to fix this
properly without a copy at the present time, and it is important
to get rid of the data corruption.

With fixes from Herbert Xu.

9e9fd12dc0 tg3: Fix firmware loading
This patch modifies how the tg3 driver handles device firmware.

The patch starts by consolidating David Woodhouse's earlier patch under
the same name.  Specifically, the patch moves the request_firmware call
into a separate tg3_request_firmware() function and calls that function
from tg3_open() rather than tg3_init_one().

The patch then goes on to limit the number of devices that will make
request_firmware calls.  The original firmware patch unnecessarily
requested TSO firmware for devices that did not need it.  This patch
reduces the set of devices making TSO firmware patches to approximately
the following device set : 5703, 5704, and 5705.

Finally, the patch reduces the effects of a request_firmware() failure.
For those devices that are requesting TSO firmware, the driver will turn
off the TSO capability.  If TSO firmware becomes available at a later
time, the device can be closed and then opened again to reacquire the
TSO capability.
