2007-10-10drivers/block/umem: minor cleanupsJeff Garzik1-30/+29
* tab-align DRIVER_*, pci_driver entries * reduced wasted memory by killing unused struct cardinfo members * move free_irq() call above resource unmap, to fix tiny window where irq handler may access recently-unmapped memory * propagate pci_enable_device() return value * use pci_request_regions, pci_release_regions() for resource reservation * call pci_disable_device() in pci_driver::remove() Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
2007-10-10drivers/block/umem: use dev_printk()Jeff Garzik1-49/+62
dev_printk() gives us a consistent prefix (driver name + PCI bus id), which allows us to eliminate the hand-rolled one. Also allows us to eliminate card->card_number, which was used solely in printk() calls. Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
2007-10-10drivers/block/umem: move private include away from include/linuxJeff Garzik3-6/+6
Move include/linux/umem.h to drivers/block, as umem.c is the only user, and its not an exported header. Move the PCI_{VENDOR,DEVICE}_ID_* constants to include/linux/pci_ids.h. Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

2007-10-10Drop 'size' argument from bio_endio and bi_end_ioNeilBrown45-328/+132
As bi_end_io is only called once when the reqeust is complete, the 'size' argument is now redundant. Remove it. Now there is no need for bio_endio to subtract the size completed from bi_size. So don't do that either. While we are at it, change bi_end_io to return void. Signed-off-by: Neil Brown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
2007-10-10Don't decrement bi_size in bio_endioNeilBrown2-27/+38
The only caller of bio_endio that does not pass the full bi_size is end_that_request_first. Also, no ->bi_end_io method is really interested in bi_size being decremented. So move the decrement and related code into ll_rw_blk and merge it with order_bio_endio to form req_bio_endio which does endio functionality specific to request completion. As some ->bi_end_io methods do check bi_size of 0, we set it thus for now, but that will go in the next patch.

blk_rq_bio_prep is exported for use in exactly one place. That place can benefit from using the new blk_rq_append_bio instead.

2007-10-10Fix various abuse of bio fields in umem.cNeilBrown1-13/+25
umem.c: advances bi_idx and bi_sector to track where it is up to. But it is only ever doing this on one bio, so the updated fields can easily be kept elsewhere (current_*). updates bi_size, but never uses the updated values, so this isn't needed. reuses bi_phys_segments to count how many iovecs have been completely. As the completion happens sequentiually, we can store this information outside the bio too.

2007-10-10Introduce rq_for_each_segment replacing rq_for_each_bioNeilBrown14-162/+131
Every usage of rq_for_each_bio wraps a usage of bio_for_each_segment, so these can be combined into rq_for_each_segment.

2007-10-10Merge blk_recount_segments into blk_recalc_rq_segmentsNeilBrown1-58/+44
blk_recalc_rq_segments calls blk_recount_segments on each bio, then does some extra calculations to handle segments that overlap two bios. If we merge the code from blk_recount_segments into blk_recalc_rq_segments, we can process the whole request one bio_vec at a time, and not need the messy cross-bio calculations. Then blk_recount_segments can be implemented by calling blk_recalc_rq_segments, passing it a simple on-stack request which stores just the bio.

This patch fixes a wrong ifdef in the board setup code, leading to the GPIO pin not being pulled high, and thus the USB switch not being powered at all. This finishes the rename of CONFIG_USB_OHCI to CONFIG_USB_OHCI_HCD, which started in 2005 (before 2.6.12-rc2), then probably because things were working anyway for most people got forgotten.

2007-10-08[IPv6]: Fix ICMPv6 redirect handling with target multicast addressBrian Haley1-4/+5
When the ICMPv6 Target address is multicast, Linux processes the redirect instead of dropping it. The problem is in this code in ndisc_redirect_rcv(): if (ipv6_addr_equal(dest, target)) { on_link = 1; } else if (!(ipv6_addr_type(target) & IPV6_ADDR_LINKLOCAL)) { ND_PRINTK2(KERN_WARNING "ICMPv6 Redirect: target address is not link-local.\n"); return; } This second check will succeed if the Target address is, for example, FF02::1 because it has link-local scope. Instead, it should be checking if it's a unicast link-local address, as stated in RFC 2461/4861 Section 8.1: - The ICMP Target Address is either a link-local address (when redirected to a router) or the same as the ICMP Destination Address (when redirected to the on-link destination). I know this doesn't explicitly say unicast link-local address, but it's implied. This bug is preventing Linux kernels from achieving IPv6 Logo Phase II certification because of a recent error that was found in the TAHI test suite - Neighbor Disovery suite test 206 (v6LC.2.3.6_G) had the multicast address in the Destination field instead of Target field, so we were passing the test. This won't be the case anymore. The patch below fixes this problem, and also fixes ndisc_send_redirect() to not send an invalid redirect with a multicast address in the Target field. I re-ran the TAHI Neighbor Discovery section to make sure Linux passes all 245 tests now.

2007-10-07[TCP]: Fix fastpath_cnt_hint when GSO skb is partially ACKedIlpo Järvinen1-0/+3
When only GSO skb was partially ACKed, no hints are reset, therefore fastpath_cnt_hint must be tweaked too or else it can corrupt fackets_out. The corruption to occur, one must have non-trivial ACK/SACK sequence, so this bug is not very often that harmful. There's a fackets_out state reset in TCP because fackets_out is known to be inaccurate and that fixes the issue eventually anyway. In case there was also at least one skb that got fully ACKed, the fastpath_skb_hint is set to NULL which causes a recount for fastpath_cnt_hint (the old value won't be accessed anymore), thus it can safely be decremented without additional checking.

2007-10-07fix bogus reporting of signals by auditAl Viro1-11/+11
Async signals should not be reported as sent by current in audit log. As it is, we call audit_signal_info() too early in check_kill_permission(). Note that check_kill_permission() has that test already - it needs to know if it should apply current-based permission checks. So the solution is to move the call of audit_signal_info() between those. Bogosity in question is easily reproduced - add a rule watching for e.g. kill(2) from specific process (so that audit_signal_info() would not short-circuit to nothing), say load_policy, watch the bogus OBJ_PID entry in audit logs claiming that write(2) on selinuxfs file issued by load_policy(8) had somehow managed to send a signal to syslogd...
