* IPoIB: Free child interfaces properlyRoland Dreier2006-05-091-3/+1
| | | | | | | | When deleting a child interface with a non-default P_Key via /sys/class/net/ibX/delete_child, the interface must be freed with free_netdev() (rather than kfree() on the private data). Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
* IB/mthca: Fix race in reference countingRoland Dreier2006-05-095-45/+74
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix races in in destroying various objects. If a destroy routine waits for an object to become free by doing wait_event(&obj->wait, !atomic_read(&obj->refcount)); /* now clean up and destroy the object */ and another place drops a reference to the object by doing if (atomic_dec_and_test(&obj->refcount)) wake_up(&obj->wait); then this is susceptible to a race where the wait_event() and final freeing of the object occur between the atomic_dec_and_test() and the wake_up(). And this is a use-after-free, since wake_up() will be called on part of the already-freed object. Fix this in mthca by replacing the atomic_t refcounts with plain old integers protected by a spinlock. This makes it possible to do the decrement of the reference count and the wake_up() so that it appears as a single atomic operation to the code waiting on the wait queue. While touching this code, also simplify mthca_cq_clean(): the CQ being cleaned cannot go away, because it still has a QP attached to it. So there's no reason to be paranoid and look up the CQ by number; it's perfectly safe to use the pointer that the callers already have. Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>

| | | | | | | | | If a SCSI abort completes, or the command completes successfully, then the driver must remove the command from its queue of pending commands.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The problem here is that the bcm34xx driver and the ieee80211 stack do not agree on what channels are possible for 802.11a.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | zd1211 with softmac and wpa_supplicant revealed an issue with softmac and the use of workqueues. Some of the work functions actually reschedule themselves, so this meant that there could still be pending work after flush_scheduled_work() had been called during ieee80211softmac_stop(). This patch introduces a "running" flag which is used to ensure that rescheduling does not happen in this situation. I also used this flag to ensure that softmac's hooks into ieee80211 are non-operational once the stop operation has been started. This simply makes softmac a little more robust, because I could crash it easily by receiving frames in the short timeframe after shutting down softmac and before turning off the ZD1211 radio.

This change makes softmac only attempt reassociation if the remote network itself deauthenticated us.

The bootmap overlaps the EBDA region. EBDA region is not historically reserved in the e820 mapping. When the bootmap is freed it marks the EBDA region as usable. If you notice in setup.c there is already code to work around the EBDA in reserve_ebda_region(), this check however occurs after the bootmap is allocated and doesn't prevent the bootmap from using this range.

It always panic-ed, even when it didn't happen from interrupt context. This patch solves that problem for me. Also, in this case, do_exit() will be called with interrupts disabled, I believe. Would it be wise to also call local_irq_enable() after nmi_exit()? [Yes I added it -AK] Currently, on x86_64, any NMI watchdog timeout will cause a panic because the irq count will always be set to be in an interrupt when do_exit() is called from die_nmi(). If we add nmi_exit() to the die_nmi() call (since the nmi will never exit "normally") it seems to solve this problem.

The patch corrects the code such that SCI IRQ is skipped and duplicate entry is avoided. Second issue came up with VIA chipset, the problem was caused by original patch assigning IRQs starting 16 and up. The VIA chipset uses 4-bit IRQ register for internal interrupt routing, and therefore cannot handle IRQ numbers assigned to its devices. The patch corrects this problem by allowing PCI IRQs below 16.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Atomically create attributes when class device is added. This avoids the race between registering class_device (which generates hotplug event), and the creation of attribute groups.

| * | | [CLASS DEVICE]: add attribute_group creationStephen Hemminger2006-05-062-0/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Extend the support of attribute groups in class_device's to allow groups to be created as part of the registration process. This allows network device's to avoid race between registration and creating groups. Note that unlike attributes that are a property of the class object, the groups are a property of the class_device object. This is done because there are different types of network devices (wireless for example).

Also adjust the comment describing this, and move the message printing and redirection to mkmakefile. Signed-off-by: Jan Beulich <jbeulich@novell.com> Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>
