a26c074c1c [PATCH] net/sb1000: replace nicedelay() with ssleep()
Use ssleep() instead of nicedelay()
to guarantee the task delays as expected. Remove the prototype and
definition of nicedelay(). This is a very weird function, because it is
called to sleep in terms of usecs, but always sleeps for 1 second,
completely ignoring the parameter. I have gone ahead and followed suit,
just sleeping for a second in all cases, but maybe someone with the
hardware could tell me if perhaps the paramter *should* matter. Additionally,
nicedelay() is called in TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE state, but doesn't deal with signals
in case these longer delays do not complete, so I believe ssleep() is more
appropriate.

feea1db26e [PATCH] defxx: Use irqreturn_t for the interrupt handler
This is a fix for the interrupt handler in the defxx driver to use
irqreturn_t.  Beside the obvious fix of returning a proper status at all,
it actually checks board registers as appropriate for determining if an
interrupt has been recorded in the bus-specific interface logic.

The patch also includes an obvious one-line fix for SET_NETDEV_DEV needed
for the EISA variation, for which I've decided there is no point in sending
separately.

93ad4fb04f [PATCH] pcnet_cs.c: IRQ handler optimization
During some performance diagnostics I stumbled on this slightly wasteful
code in pcnet_cs.c which I made the patch included at the bottom for (two
minor comment fixes included).

Improvement:
instead of *always* calculating
lea    0x2c0(%edx),%ebx
and then additionally doing the
mov    %edx,0xc0(%ebx)
addition *if we need it*,

we now do the *whole* calculation of
mov    %edx,0x380(%ebx)
*only* if we need it.
This even manages to save us a whole 16-byte alignment buffer loss
in this compilation case.

Result: slightly improves IRQ handler performance in both shared and
non-shared IRQ case, which should make my rusty P3/700 a slight bit happier.

Thank you for your support,

Andreas Mohr

97f568d8e3 8139cp: safer spin loop for get_statistics
The spin loop in 8139cp is limited to 100 iterations when pulling hardware
stats. There is no allowance for processor speed so on a fast machine, the
stats may not be available that fast. Also, if the board doesn't return
soon enough make sure turn the address back off to prevent later updates
when memory has gone away.

169a3e6663 bonding: xor/802.3ad improved slave hash
Add support for alternate slave selection algorithms to bonding
balance-xor and 802.3ad modes.  Default mode (what we have now: xor of
MAC addresses) is "layer2", new choice is "layer3+4", using IP and port
information for hashing to select peer.

Originally submitted by Jason Gabler for balance-xor mode;
modified by Jay Vosburgh to additionally support 802.3ad mode.  Jason's
original comment is as follows:

The attached patch to the Linux Etherchannel Bonding driver modifies the
driver's "balance-xor" mode as follows:

      - alternate hashing policy support for mode 2
        * Added kernel parameter "xmit_policy" to allow the specification
          of different hashing policies for mode 2.  The original mode 2
          policy is the default, now found in xmit_hash_policy_layer2().
        * Added xmit_hash_policy_layer34()

This patch was inspired by hashing policies implemented by Cisco,
Foundry and IBM, which are explained in
Foundry documentation found at:
http://www.foundrynet.com/services/documentation/sribcg/Trunking.html#112750

Christoph Lameter
3e1d1d28d9 [PATCH] Cleanup patch for process freezing
1. Establish a simple API for process freezing defined in linux/include/sched.h:

   frozen(process)		Check for frozen process
   freezing(process)		Check if a process is being frozen
   freeze(process)		Tell a process to freeze (go to refrigerator)
   thaw_process(process)	Restart process
   frozen_process(process)	Process is frozen now

2. Remove all references to PF_FREEZE and PF_FROZEN from all
   kernel sources except sched.h

3. Fix numerous locations where try_to_freeze is manually done by a driver

4. Remove the argument that is no longer necessary from two function calls.

5. Some whitespace cleanup

6. Clear potential race in refrigerator (provides an open window of PF_FREEZE
   cleared before setting PF_FROZEN, recalc_sigpending does not check
   PF_FROZEN).

This patch does not address the problem of freeze_processes() violating the rule
that a task may only modify its own flags by setting PF_FREEZE. This is not clean
in an SMP environment. freeze(process) is therefore not SMP safe!

Not sure why any driver needs to sleep for *two* ticks, so let's fix it.

Use msleep() instead of schedule_timeout() to guarantee the task delays as
expected.  Signals are never checked for by the callers or in the function
itself, so use TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE instead of TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE.  The
delay is presumed to have been written when HZ==100, and thus has been
multiplied by 10 to pass to msleep().

72414d3f1d [PATCH] kexec code cleanup
o Following patch provides purely cosmetic changes and corrects CodingStyle
  guide lines related certain issues like below in kexec related files

  o braces for one line "if" statements, "for" loops,
  o more than 80 column wide lines,
  o No space after "while", "for" and "switch" key words

o Changes:
  o take-2: Removed the extra tab before "case" key words.
  o take-3: Put operator at the end of line and space before "*/"

6e274d1443 [PATCH] kdump: Use real pt_regs from exception
Makes kexec_crashdump() take a pt_regs * as an argument.  This allows to
get exact register state at the point of the crash.  If we come from direct
panic assertion NULL will be passed and the current registers saved before
crashdump.

This hooks into two places:
die(): check the conditions under which we will panic when calling
do_exit and go there directly with the pt_regs that caused the fatal
fault.

die_nmi(): If we receive an NMI lockup while in the kernel use the
pt_regs and go directly to crash_kexec(). We're probably nested up badly
at this point so this might be the only chance to escape with proper
information.

Removed the dependency on backup region.  Now all the information is encoded
in ELF format.  /dev/oldmem is a dummy interface.  User space tool need to be
intelligent enough to parse the elf headers and read the relevant memory areas
with the help of /dev/oldmem.
