* pata_pdc202xx_old: Fix crashes with ATAPIAlan Cox2008-01-191-0/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | The PDC202xx older devices do not support ATAPI DMA via the usual interfaces. What documentation I have isn't sufficient to support DMA and it isn't clear if the Windows drivers do this or it is possible at all. (Neither do the drivers/ide old drivers) So turn it ATAPI DMA off, these are disk optimised controllers.

| * IB/ipath: Fix receiving UD messages with immediate dataRalph Campbell2008-01-161-22/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes a small bug in ipath_ud_rcv()'s handling of UD messages with immediate data. We need to test whether immediate data is present and update the header size accordingly *before* testing the packet size from the header against the actual received length. Otherwise the wrong header size will be used and all messages with immediate data will be dropped. This bug keeps MVAPICH-UD and HP MPI from working at all on ipath devices.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The driver sets up the hardware to accept a frame with max length equal to MTU + Ethernet header + FCS + VLAN tag, but we neglect to add the VLAN tag size to the ingress buffer. When a VLAN-tagged frame arrives, the hardware passes it, but bad things happen because the buffer is too small. This patch fixes that.

This means we can simplify the alignment calculation to just use the result of the header size modulus 4 as frame alignment. Furthermore we shouldn't use NET_IP_ALIGN in rt2x00usb because it could be 0 on some architectures and we absolutely need to have 2 bytes reserved for possible aligning.

The overflow can only happen with eGalax devices and is even there very unlikely (only non-report packet are affected any only when truncated after the first byte). Also changes the mutli-packet handling code not to drop unknown packets, but rather just drop one byte. This allows synchronizing on report packets in the data stream. It's required for some egalax devices to work at all. Also remove the pointless 'flags' member of the device struct and set the version number to 0.6, plus some minor cleanups.

This is done to synchronize the position of the mouse cursor on the client desktop with the mouse cursor position on the server. Mousedev is not designed to pass those absolute events directly to X, but it can translate them into relative movements. It currently does this for tablet like devices and touchpads. This patch merely tells it to also include a device with ABS_X, ABS_Y, and mouse buttons in its list of devices to process input for. This patch enables the mouse pointer to move when using the remote console. Signed-off-by: Micah Parrish <micah.parrish@hp.com> Signed-off-by: Dmitry Torokhov <dtor@mail.ru>
