| * [SUNHME]: Fix for sunhme failures on x86Jurij Smakov2006-12-031-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The following patch fixes the failure of sunhme drivers on x86 hosts due to missing pci_enable_device() and pci_set_master() calls, lost during code refactoring. It has been filed as bugzilla bug #7502 [0] and Debian bug #397460 [1].

| | * [DCCP] tfrc: Binary search for reverse TFRC lookupGerrit Renker2006-12-031-14/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This replaces the linear search algorithm for reverse lookup with binary search. It has the advantage of better scalability: O(log2(N)) instead of O(N). This means that the average number of iterations is reduced from 250 (linear search if each value appears equally likely) down to at most 9.

| | * [DCCP] ccid3: Deprecate TFRC_SMALLEST_PGerrit Renker2006-12-032-18/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch deprecates the existing use of an arbitrary value TFRC_SMALLEST_P for low-threshold values of p. This avoids masking low-resolution errors. Instead, the code now checks against real boundaries (implemented by preceding patch) and provides warnings whenever a real value falls below the threshold. If such messages are observed, it is a better solution to take this as an indication that the lookup table needs to be re-engineered. Changelog: ---------- This patch * makes handling all TFRC resolution errors local to the TFRC library * removes unnecessary test whether X_calc is 'infinity' due to p==0 -- this condition is already caught by tfrc_calc_x() * removes setting ccid3hctx_p = TFRC_SMALLEST_P in ccid3_hc_tx_packet_recv since this is now done by the TFRC library * updates BUG_ON test in ccid3_hc_tx_no_feedback_timer to take into account that p now is either 0 (and then X_calc is irrelevant), or it is > 0; since the handling of TFRC_SMALLEST_P is now taken care of in the tfrc library Justification: -------------- The TFRC code uses a lookup table which has a bounded resolution. The lowest possible value of the loss event rate `p' which can be resolved is currently 0.0001. Substituting this lower threshold for p when p is less than 0.0001 results in a huge, exponentially-growing error. The error can be computed by the following formula: (f(0.0001) - f(p))/f(p) * 100 for p < 0.0001 Currently the solution is to use an (arbitrary) value TFRC_SMALLEST_P = 40 * 1E-6 = 0.00004 and to consider all values below this value as `virtually zero'. Due to the exponentially growing resolution error, this is not a good idea, since it hides the fact that the table can not resolve practically occurring cases. Already at p == TFRC_SMALLEST_P, the error is as high as 58.19%!

| | * [DCCP] tfrc: Fix small error in reverse lookup of p for given f(p)Gerrit Renker2006-12-031-2/+2

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This avoids a (harmless) warning message being printed at the DCCP server (the receiver of a DCCP half connection). Incoming packets are both directed to * ccid_hc_rx_packet_recv() for the server half * ccid_hc_tx_packet_recv() for the client half The message gets printed since on a server the client half is currently not sending data packets. This is resolved for the moment by checking the DCCP-role first. In future times (bidirectional DCCP connections), this test may have to be more sophisticated.

| | * [DCCP]: Fix BUG in retransmission delay calculationGerrit Renker2006-12-031-1/+1

As a result, only a few out of the submitted packets made it at all onto the network. Occasionally, when dccp_wait_for_ccid was involved, this also triggered a bug warning since ccid3_hc_tx_send_packet returned a negative value (which in reality was a negative delay value). The cause for this bug lies in the comparison if (delay >= hctx->ccid3hctx_delta) return delay / 1000L; The type of `delay' is `long', that of ccid3hctx_delta is `u32'. When comparing negative long values against u32 values, the test returned `true' whenever delay was smaller than 0 (meaning the packet was overdue to send). The fix is by casting, subtracting, and then testing the difference with regard to 0. This has been tested and shown to work.

| | * [DCCP]: Use higher RTO default for CCID3Gerrit Renker2006-12-032-8/+46
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The TFRC nofeedback timer normally expires after the maximum of 4 RTTs and twice the current send interval (RFC 3448, 4.3). On LANs with a small RTT this can mean a high processing load and reduced performance, since then the nofeedback timer is triggered very frequently. This patch provides a configuration option to set the bound for the nofeedback timer, using as default 100 milliseconds. By setting the configuration option to 0, strict RFC 3448 behaviour can be enforced for the nofeedback timer.

This patch adds the necessary infrastucture and the first exploiter of it. Subsystems that need to add a function that needs to be called at re-IPL may register/unregister this function via struct reset_call { struct reset_call *next; void (*fn)(void); }; void register_reset_call(struct reset_call *reset); void unregister_reset_call(struct reset_call *reset); When the registered function get called the context is: - all cpus beside the current one are stopped - all machine checks and interrupts are disabled - prefixing is disabled - a default machine check handler is available for use The registered functions may not take any locks are sleep. For the common I/O layer part of this patch: Introduce a reset_call css_reset that does the following: - clear all subchannels - perform a rchp on all channel paths and wait for the resulting machine checks This replaces the calls to clear_all_subchannels() and cio_reset_channel_paths() for kexec and ccw reipl. reipl_ccw_dev() now uses reipl_find_schid() to determine the subchannel id for a given device id. Also remove cio_reset_channel_paths() and friends since they are not needed anymore.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since the diag 308 reipl method is superior to the ccw method, we should use it whenever it is possible. We can do that, if the user has not specified a new reipl ccw device and the system has been ipled from a ccw device.

Instead use the generic functions which handle this properly. In addition the generic version of user_termio_to_kernel_termios() also copies the c_line member which was missing in our variant.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The SALIPL entry point has an needless memory detection routine as we later check the memory size again. The SALIPL code also uses diagnose 0x060 if we are running under VM, but this diagnose is not compatible with the 64 bit addressing mode. The solution is to get rid of this code and rely on the memory detection in the startup code.
