This patch switches the emac implementation over to the newly separated MDIO driver. With this, the mdio bus frequency defaults to a safe 2.2MHz. Boards may optionally specify a bus frequency via platform data. The phy identification scheme has been modified to use a phy bus id instead of a mask. This largely serves to eliminate the "phy search" code in emac init. Signed-off-by:

Davinci's MDIO controller is present on other TI devices, without an accompanying EMAC. For example, on tnetv107x, the same MDIO module is used in conjunction with a 3-port switch hardware. By separating the MDIO controller code into its own platform driver, this patch allows common logic to be reused on such platforms. Signed-off-by:

The Thinkpad X100e seems to have some odd behaviour when the display is powered off - the onboard r8169 starts generating rxfifo overflow errors. The root cause of this has not yet been identified and may well be a hardware design bug on the platform, but r8169 should be more resiliant to this. This patch enables the rxfifo interrupt on 8168 devices and removes the MAC version check in the interrupt handler, and the machine no longer crashes when under network load while the screen turns off.

Some pcnet_cs compatible cards require an exact 16-lines match of the ioport areas specified in CIS, but set the "iolines" value in the CIS incorrectly. We can easily work around this issue -- same as we do in serial_cs -- by first trying setting iolines to the CIS-specified value, and then trying a 16-line match. Reported-and-tested-by:

On resume, before starting the PAL state machine, check if the adjust_link() method is well supplied. If not, this would lead to a NULL pointer dereference in the phy_state_machine() function. This scenario can happen if the Ethernet driver call manually the PHY functions instead of using the PAL state machine. The mv643xx_eth driver is a such example. Signed-off-by:

It was recently brought to my attention that 802.3ad mode bonds would no longer form when using some network hardware after a driver update. After snooping around I realized that the particular hardware was using page-based skbs and found that skb->data did not contain a valid LACPDU as it was not stored there. That explained the inability to form an 802.3ad-based bond. For balance-alb mode bonds this was also an issue as ARPs would not be properly processed. This patch fixes the issue in my tests and should be applied to 2.6.36 and as far back as anyone cares to add it to stable.

The 'wwan' devtype is meant for devices that require preconfiguration and *every* time setup before the ethernet interface can be used, like cellular modems which require a series of setup commands on serial ports or other mechanisms before the ethernet interface will handle packets. As ipheth only requires one-per-hotplug pairing setup with no preconfiguration (like APN, phone #, etc) and the network interface is usable at any time after that initial setup, remove the incorrect devtype wwan.

niu_get_ethtool_tcam_all() assumes that its output buffer is the right size, and warns before returning if it is not. However, the output buffer size is under user control and ETHTOOL_GRXCLSRLALL is an unprivileged ethtool command. Therefore this is at least a local denial-of-service vulnerability. Change it to check before writing each entry and to return an error if the buffer is already full. Compile-tested only. Signed-off-by:

This fixes a bug introduced in commit de847272 "3c59x: Use fine-grained locks for MII and windowed register access". vortex_interrupt() holds vp->window_lock over multiple register accesses to reduce locking overhead. However it also needs to call vortex_error() sometimes, and that uses the regular functions for access to windowed registers, which will try to acquire window_lock again. Therefore, drop window_lock around the call to vortex_error() and set the window afterward reacquiring the lock. Since vortex_error() may call vortex_rx(), which *does* require its caller to hold window_lock, lift that call up into vortex_interrupt(). This also removes the potential for calling vortex_rx() on a later-generation NIC. Reported-and-tested-by: Jens Schüßler <jgs@trash.net> [in Debian's 2.6.32] Signed-off-by:

The time_before_eq()/time_after_eq() functions operate on unsigned long and only work if the difference between the two compared values is smaller than half the range of unsigned long (31 bits on i386). Some of the variables (slave->jiffies, dev->trans_start, dev->last_rx) used by bonding store a copy of jiffies and may not be updated for a long time. With HZ=1000, time_before_eq()/time_after_eq() will start giving bad results after ~25 days. jiffies will never be before slave->jiffies, dev->trans_start, dev->last_rx by more than possibly a couple ticks caused by preemption of this code. This allows us to detect/prevent these overflows by replacing time_before_eq()/time_after_eq() with time_in_range(). Signed-off-by:

vortex_ioctl() was grabbing vortex_private::lock around its call to generic_mii_ioctl(). This is no longer necessary since there are more specific locks which the mdio_{read,write}() functions will obtain. Worse, those functions do not save and restore IRQ flags when locking the MII state, so interrupts will be enabled when generic_mii_ioctl() returns. Since there is currently no need for any function to call mdio_{read,write}() while holding another spinlock, do not change them to save and restore IRQ flags but remove the specification of ordering between vortex_private::lock and vortex_private::mii_lock.

There's something very important I forgot to tell you. What? Don't cross the GRO streams. Why? It would be bad. I'm fuzzy on the whole good/bad thing. What do you mean, "bad"? Try to imagine all the Internet as you know it stopping instantaneously and every bit in every packet swapping at the speed of light. Total packet reordering. Right. That's bad. Okay. All right. Important safety tip. Thanks, Hubert The simplest way to stop this is just avoid doing GRO on the second port. Very few Marvell boards support two ports per ring, and GRO is just an optimization.

It turned out that upon a power save mode change the firmware will set a special flag onto the last outgoing frame tx status (which in this case is almost always the designated PSM nullfunc frame). This flag confused the driver; It erroneously reported transmission failures to the stack, which then generated the next nullfunc. and so on... Cc: <stable@kernel.org> Reported-by:

It is possible that phylib will call adjust_link before returning from {,of_}phy_connect(), which may cause the following [very rare, though] oops upon reopening the device: Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0x0000024c Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1] PREEMPT SMP NR_CPUS=2 LTT NESTING LEVEL : 0 P1021 RDB Modules linked in: NIP: c0345dac LR: c0345dac CTR: c0345d84 TASK = dffab6b0[30] 'events/0' THREAD: c0d24000 CPU: 0 [...] NIP [c0345dac] adjust_link+0x28/0x19c LR [c0345dac] adjust_link+0x28/0x19c Call Trace: [c0d25f00] [000045e1] 0x45e1 (unreliable) [c0d25f30] [c036c158] phy_state_machine+0x3ac/0x554 [...] Here is why. Drivers store phydev in their private structures, e.g. gianfar driver: static int init_phy(struct net_device *dev) { ... priv->phydev = of_phy_connect(...); ... } So that adjust_link could retrieve it back: static void adjust_link(struct net_device *dev) { ... struct phy_device *phydev = priv->phydev; ... } If the device has been opened before, then phydev->state is set to PHY_HALTED (or undefined if the driver didn't call phy_stop()). Now, phy_connect starts the PHY state machine before returning phydev to the driver: phy_start_machine(phydev, NULL); if (phydev->irq > 0) phy_start_interrupts(phydev); return phydev; The time between 'phy_start_machine()' and 'return phydev' is undefined. The start machine routine delays execution for 1 second, which is enough for most cases. But under heavy load, or if you're unlucky, it is quite possible that PHY state machine will execute before phy_connect() returns, and so adjust_link callback will try to dereference phydev, which is not yet ready. To fix the issue, simply initialize the PHY's state to PHY_READY during phy_attach(). This will ensure that phylib won't call adjust_link before phy_start(). Signed-off-by:
