Commit 4f70f7a91bffdcc39f088748dc678953eb9a3fbd (sparc64: Implement IRQ stacks.) has two bugs. First, the softirq range check forgets to subtract STACK_BIAS before comparing with %sp. Next, on failure the wrong label is jumped to, resulting in a bogus stack being loaded. Reported-by: Igor Kovalenko <igor.v.kovalenko@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-12-09sparc64: Fix overly strict range type matching for PCI devices.David S. Miller
When we are trying to see if a range property entry applies to a given address, we are overly strict about the type. We should only allow I/O ranges for I/O addresses, and only allow CONFIG space ranges for CONFIG space address. However for MEM ranges, they come in 32-bit and 64-bit flavors. And a lack of an exact match is OK if the range is 32-bit and the address is 64-bit. We can assign a 64-bit address properly into a 32-bit parent range just fine. So allow it.

2009-12-05sparc: Set UTS_MACHINE correctly.David S. Miller
"ARCH" can be just about anything, so we shouldn't end up with UTS_MACHINE of "sparc" in a 64-bit kernel build just because someone set the personality using 'sparc32' or similar. CONFIG_SPARC64 drives the compilation and therefore provides the definitive value, not "ARCH".

2009-11-26block: add helpers to run flush_dcache_page() against a bio and a request's ↵Ilya Loginov
pages Mtdblock driver doesn't call flush_dcache_page for pages in request. So, this causes problems on architectures where the icache doesn't fill from the dcache or with dcache aliases. The patch fixes this. The ARCH_IMPLEMENTS_FLUSH_DCACHE_PAGE symbol was introduced to avoid pointless empty cache-thrashing loops on architectures for which flush_dcache_page() is a no-op. Every architecture was provided with this flush pages on architectires where ARCH_IMPLEMENTS_FLUSH_DCACHE_PAGE is equal 1 or do nothing otherwise. See "fix mtd_blkdevs problem with caches on some architectures" discussion on LKML for more information.

2009-11-23sparc64: Fix definition of VMEMMAP_SIZE.David S. Miller
This was the cause of various boot failures on V480, V880, etc. systems. Kernel image memory was being overwritten because the vmemmap[] array was being sized to small. So if you had physical memory addresses past a certain point, the early bootup would spam all over variables in the kernel data section. The vmemmap mappings map page structs, not page struct pointers. And that was the key thinko in the macro definition. This was fixable thanks to the help, reports, and tireless patience of Hermann Lauer. Reported-by: Hermann Lauer <Hermann.Lauer@iwr.uni-heidelberg.de> Signed-off-by: David S.

2009-10-12net: Introduce recvmmsg socket syscallArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Meaning receive multiple messages, reducing the number of syscalls and net stack entry/exit operations. Next patches will introduce mechanisms where protocols that want to optimize this operation will provide an unlocked_recvmsg operation. This takes into account comments made by: . Paul Moore: sock_recvmsg is called only for the first datagram, sock_recvmsg_nosec is used for the rest. . Caitlin Bestler: recvmmsg now has a struct timespec timeout, that works in the same fashion as the ppoll one. If the underlying protocol returns a datagram with MSG_OOB set, this will make recvmmsg return right away with as many datagrams (+ the OOB one) it has received so far. . Rémi Denis-Courmont & Steven Whitehouse: If we receive N < vlen datagrams and then recvmsg returns an error, recvmmsg will return the successfully received datagrams, store the error and return it in the next call. This paves the way for a subsequent optimization, sk_prot->unlocked_recvmsg, where we will be able to acquire the lock only at batch start and end, not at every underlying recvmsg call.

2009-10-12net: Generalize socket rx gap / receive queue overflow cmsgNeil Horman
Create a new socket level option to report number of queue overflows Recently I augmented the AF_PACKET protocol to report the number of frames lost on the socket receive queue between any two enqueued frames. This value was exported via a SOL_PACKET level cmsg. AFter I completed that work it was requested that this feature be generalized so that any datagram oriented socket could make use of this option. As such I've created this patch, It creates a new SOL_SOCKET level option called SO_RXQ_OVFL, which when enabled exports a SOL_SOCKET level cmsg that reports the nubmer of times the sk_receive_queue overflowed between any two given frames. It also augments the AF_PACKET protocol to take advantage of this new feature (as it previously did not touch sk->sk_drops, which this patch uses to record the overflow count). Tested successfully by me. Notes: 1) Unlike my previous patch, this patch simply records the sk_drops value, which is not a number of drops between packets, but rather a total number of drops. Deltas must be computed in user space. 2) While this patch currently works with datagram oriented protocols, it will also be accepted by non-datagram oriented protocols. I'm not sure if thats agreeable to everyone, but my argument in favor of doing so is that, for those protocols which aren't applicable to this option, sk_drops will always be zero, and reporting no drops on a receive queue that isn't used for those non-participating protocols seems reasonable to me. This also saves us having to code in a per-protocol opt in mechanism. 3) This applies cleanly to net-next assuming that commit 977750076d98c7ff6cbda51858bb5a5894a9d9ab (my af packet cmsg patch) is reverted Signed-off-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
