* [BPQ] lockdep: fix false positiveRalf Baechle2006-07-101-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | Bpqether is encapsulating AX.25 frames into ethernet frames. There is a virtual bpqether device paired with each ethernet devices, so it's normal to pass through dev_queue_xmit twice for each frame which triggers the locking detector.

* [PATCH] release_firmware() fixesMagnus Damm2006-07-101-21/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Use release_firmware() to free requested resources. According to Documentation/firmware_class/README the request_firmware() call should be followed by a release_firmware(). Some drivers do not however free the firmware previously allocated with request_firmware(). This patch tries to fix this by making sure that release_firmware() is used as expected.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds the wrapper function skb_is_gso which can be used instead of directly testing skb_shinfo(skb)->gso_size.

So netpoll_send_skb takes the _xmit_lock, which is all nitty gritty but then rtl8139_start_xmit comes around while that lock is taken, and does spin_unlock_irq(&tp->lock); which.. enables interrupts and softirqs; this is quite bad because the xmit lock is taken in softirq context for the watchdog like this: [<c1200376>] _spin_lock+0x23/0x32 [<c11af282>] dev_watchdog+0x14/0xb1 [<c101dab2>] run_timer_softirq+0xf2/0x14a [<c101a691>] __do_softirq+0x55/0xb0 [<c1004a8d>] do_softirq+0x58/0xbd Which would deadlock now that the spin_unlock_irq() has enabled irqs/softirqs while the _xmit_lock is still held.

Nathan reported the following lockdep warning: [ 197.343948] BUG: warning at kernel/lockdep.c:1856/trace_hardirqs_on() [ 197.345928] [<c010329b>] show_trace_log_lvl+0x5b/0x105 [ 197.346359] [<c0103896>] show_trace+0x1b/0x20 [ 197.346759] [<c01038ed>] dump_stack+0x1f/0x24 [ 197.347159] [<c012efa2>] trace_hardirqs_on+0xfb/0x185 [ 197.348873] [<c029b009>] _spin_unlock_irq+0x24/0x2d [ 197.350620] [<e09034e8>] do_tx_done+0x171/0x179 [ns83820] [ 197.350895] [<e090445c>] ns83820_irq+0x149/0x20b [ns83820] [ 197.351166] [<c013b4b8>] handle_IRQ_event+0x1d/0x52 [ 197.353216] [<c013c6c2>] handle_level_irq+0x97/0xe1 [ 197.355157] [<c01048c3>] do_IRQ+0x8b/0xac [ 197.355612] [<c0102d9d>] common_interrupt+0x25/0x2c this is caused because the ns83820 driver re-enables irq flags in hardirq context. While legal in theory, in practice it should only be done if the hardware is really old and has some very high overhead in its ISR. (such as PIO IDE) For modern hardware, running ISRs with irqs enabled is discouraged, because 1) new hardware is fast enough to not cause latency problems 2) allowing the nesting of hardware interrupts only 'spreads out' the handling of the current ISR, causing extra cachemisses that would otherwise not happen. Furthermore, on architectures where ISRs share the kernel stacks, enabling interrupts in ISRs introduces a much higher kernel-stack-nesting and thus kernel-stack-overflow risk. 3) not managing irq-flags via the _irqsave / _irqrestore variants is dangerous: it's easy to forget whether one function nests inside another, and irq flags might be mismanaged. In the few cases where re-enabling interrupts in an ISR is considered useful (and unavoidable), it has to be taught to the lock validator explicitly (because the lock validator needs the "no ISR ever enables hardirqs" artificial simplification to keep the IRQ/softirq locking dependencies manageable). This teaching is done via the explicit use local_irq_enable_in_hardirq(). On a stock kernel this maps to local_irq_enable(). If the lock validator is enabled then this does not enable interrupts. Now, the analysis of drivers/net/ns83820.c's irq flags use: the irq-enabling in irq context seems intentional, but i dont think it's justified. Furthermore, the driver suffers from problem #3 above too, in ns83820_tx_timeout() it disables irqs via local_irq_save(), but then it calls do_tx_done() which does a spin_unlock_irq(), re-enabling for a function that does not expect it! While currently this bug seems harmless (only some debug printout seems to be affected by it), it's nevertheless something to be fixed. So this patch makes the ns83820 ISR irq-flags-safe, and cleans up do_tx_done() use and locking to avoid the ns83820_tx_timeout() bug. From: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> ns83820_mib_isr takes the misc_lock in IRQ context. All other places that do this in the ISR already use _irqsave versions, make this consistent at least. At some point in the future someone should audit the driver to see if all _irqsave's in the ISR can go away, this is generally an iffy/fragile proposition though; for now get it safe, simple and consistent. From: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> ok this is a real driver deadlock: The ns83820 driver enabled interrupts (by unlocking the misc_lock with _irq) while still holding the rx_info.lock, which is required to be irq safe since it's used in the ISR like this: writel(1, dev->base + IER); spin_unlock_irq(&dev->misc_lock); kick_rx(ndev); spin_unlock_irq(&dev->rx_info.lock); This is can cause a deadlock if an irq was pending at the first spin_unlock_irq already, or if one would hit during kick_rx(). Simply remove the first _irq solves this Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Benjamin LaHaise <bcrl@kvack.org> Cc: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org> Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

* | [PATCH] ZyDAS ZD1211 USB-WLAN driverDaniel Drake2006-07-0522-0/+6911
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are 60+ USB wifi adapters available on the market based on the ZyDAS ZD1211 chip. Unlike the predecessor (ZD1201), ZD1211 does not have a hardware MAC, so most data operations are coordinated by the device driver. The ZD1211 chip sits alongside an RF transceiver which is also controlled by the driver. Our driver currently supports 2 RF types, we know of one other available in a few marketed products which we will be supporting soon. Our driver also supports the newer revision of ZD1211, called ZD1211B. The initialization and RF operations are slightly different for the new revision, but the main difference is 802.11e support. Our driver does not support the QoS features yet, but we think we know how to use them. This driver is based on ZyDAS's own GPL driver available from www.zydas.com.tw. ZyDAS engineers have been responsive and supportive of our efforts, so thumbs up to them. Additionally, the firmware is redistributable and they have provided device specs. This driver has been written primarily by Ulrich Kunitz and myself. Graham Gower, Greg KH, Remco and Bryan Rittmeyer have also contributed. The developers of ieee80211 and softmac have made our lives so much easier- thanks! We maintain a small info-page: http://zd1211.ath.cx/wiki/DriverRewrite If there is enough time for review, we would like to aim for inclusion in 2.6.18. The driver works nicely as a STA, and can connect to both open and encrypted networks (we are using software-based encryption for now). We will work towards supporting more advanced features in the future (ad-hoc, master mode, 802.11a, ...). Signed-off-by: Daniel Drake <dsd@gentoo.org> Signed-off-by: John W.

* | [PATCH] Convert bcm43xx-softmac to use the ieee80211_is_valid_channel routineLarry Finger2006-07-053-30/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current version of bcm43xx-softmac uses local routines to check if a channel is valid. As noted in the comments, these routines do not take any regulatory information into account. This patch converts the code to use the equivalent routine in ieee80211, which is being converted to know about regulatory information.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Place the Init-vs-IRQ workaround before any card register access, because we might not have the wireless core mapped at all times in init. So this will result in a Machine Check caused by a bus error. Signed-off-by: Michael Buesch <mb@bu3sch.de> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
