* connector: create connector workqueue only while needed onceFrederic Weisbecker2009-02-032-20/+79
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The netlink connector uses its own workqueue to relay the datas sent from userspace to the appropriate callback. If you launch the test from Documentation/connector and change it a bit to send a high flow of data, you will see thousands of events coming to the "cqueue" workqueue by looking at the workqueue tracer. This flow of events can be sent very quickly. So, to not encumber the kevent workqueue and delay other jobs, the "cqueue" workqueue should remain. But this workqueue is pointless most of the time, it will always be created (assuming you have built it of course) although only developpers with specific needs will use it. So avoid this "most of the time useless task", this patch proposes to create this workqueue only when needed once. The first jobs to be sent to connector callbacks will be sent to kevent while the "cqueue" thread creation will be scheduled to kevent too. The following jobs will continue to be scheduled to keventd until the cqueue workqueue is created, and then the rest of the jobs will continue to perform as usual, through this dedicated workqueue. Each time I tested this patch, only the first event was sent to keventd, the rest has been sent to cqueue which have been created quickly. Also, this patch fixes some trailing whitespaces on the connector files. Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Acked-by: Evgeniy Polyakov <zbr@ioremap.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

* phylib: Rework suspend/resume code to check netdev wakeup capabilityAnton Vorontsov2009-02-011-14/+40
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In most cases (e.g. PCI drivers) MDIO and MAC controllers are represented by the same device. But for SOC ethernets we have separate devices. So, in SOC case, checking whether MDIO controller may wakeup is not only makes little sense, but also prevents us from doing per-netdevice wakeup management. This patch reworks suspend/resume code so that now it checks for net device's wakeup flags, not MDIO controller's ones. Each netdevice should manage its wakeup flags, and phylib will decide whether suspend an attached PHY or not. Signed-off-by: Anton Vorontsov <avorontsov@ru.mvista.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some platforms (for example pcm037) do not have an EEPROM fitted, instead storing their mac address somewhere else. The bootloader fetches this and configures the ethernet adapter before the kernel is started.

Now phylib turns off PHY power during suspend, and thus WOL doesn't work anymore. This patch workarounds the issue by enabling wakeup in the MDIO device, i.e. just restores the old behaviour for the gianfar driver. Note that this way all PHYs on a given MDIO bus won't be turned off during suspend, which isn't good from the power saving point of view. A proper, per netdevice wakeup management support will need a bit reworked phylib suspend/resume logic. Signed-off-by: Anton Vorontsov <avorontsov@ru.mvista.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

These definitions are always needed if debug is enabled at compile time (independently of DEBUG_FS being or not enabled), so moving them to a file that is always compiled fixes the issue.

| | * rtl8187: Fix error in setting OFDM power settings for RTL8187LLarry Finger2009-01-291-2/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After reports of poor performance, a review of the latest vendor driver (rtl8187_linux_26.1025.0328.2007) for RTL8187L devices was undertaken. A difference was found in the code used to index the OFDM power tables. When the Linux driver was changed, my unit works at a much greater range than before. I think this fixes Bugzilla #12380 and has been tested by at least two other users.

| * | e1000: fix bug with shared interrupt during resetJesse Brandeburg2009-01-281-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A nasty bug was found where an MTU change (or anything else that caused a reset) could race with the interrupt code. The interrupt code was entered by a shared interrupt during the MTU change. This change prevents the interrupt code from running while the driver is in the middle of its reset path.
