Checking e100.c code against Documentation/io_ordering.txt I found the following problem: spin_lock_irq... write spin-unlock e100_write_flush The attached patch fix the code like this: spin_lock_irq... write e100_write_flush spin-unlock Signed-off-by: Catalin BOIE <catab@umbrella.ro> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
2006-03-04[PATCH] natsemi: NAPI and a bugfixMark Brown
As documented in National application note 1287 the RX state machine on the natsemi chip can lock up under some conditions (mostly related to heavy load). When this happens a series of bogus packets are reported by the chip including some oversized frames prior to the final lockup. This patch implements the fix from the application note: when an oversized packet is reported it resets the RX state machine, dropping any currently pending packets.

2006-03-04[PATCH] natsemi: NAPI and a bugfixMark Brown
This patch converts the natsemi driver to use NAPI. It was originally based on one written by Harald Welte, though it has since been modified quite a bit, most extensively in order to remove the ability to disable NAPI since none of the other drivers seem to provide that functionality any more.

2006-03-03[PATCH] bonding: suppress duplicate packetsJay Vosburgh
Originally submitted by Kenzo Iwami; his original description is: The current bonding driver receives duplicate packets when broadcast/ multicast packets are sent by other devices or packets are flooded by the switch. In this patch, new flags are added in priv_flags of net_device structure to let the bonding driver discard duplicate packets in dev.c:skb_bond(). Modified by Jay Vosburgh to change a define name, update some comments, rearrange the new skb_bond() for clarity, clear all bonding priv_flags on slave release, and update the driver version.

2006-03-02[PATCH] time_interpolator: Use readq_relaxed() instead of readq().Christoph Lameter
On some platforms readq performs additional work to make sure I/O is done in a coherent way. This is not needed for time retrieval as done by the time interpolator. So we can use readq_relaxed instead which will improve performance. It affects sparc64 and ia64 only. Apparently it makes a significant difference on ia64.

2006-03-02[PATCH] v9fs: simplify fid mappingEric Van Hensbergen
v9fs has been plagued by an over-complicated approach trying to map Linux dentry semantics to Plan 9 fid semantics. Our previous approach called for aggressive flushing of the dcache resulting in several problems (including wierd cwd behavior when running /bin/pwd). This patch dramatically simplifies our handling of this fid management. Fids will not be clunked as promptly, but the new approach is more functionally correct. We now clunk un-open fids only when their dentry ref_count reaches 0 (and d_delete is called). Another simplification is we no longer seek to match fids to the process-id or uid of the action initiator. The uid-matching will need to be revisited when we fix the security model.
