The tsi148 driver can be configured to reserve a window for internal

The TSI148 driver provides an optional mechanism for ensuring that errors
resulting from posted transfers are caught whilst still relevant. To do this
errors are stored in a link list. If bus errors are not checked, this list
would grow until available memory had been exhausted.
Only store the errors in a link list if error detection is switched on.

Changing size of a file on server and local update (fuse_write_update_size)
should be always protected by inode->i_mutex. Otherwise a race like this is
possible:
1. Process 'A' calls fallocate(2) to extend file (~FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE).
fuse_file_fallocate() sends FUSE_FALLOCATE request to the server.
2. Process 'B' calls ftruncate(2) shrinking the file. fuse_do_setattr()
sends shrinking FUSE_SETATTR request to the server and updates local i_size
by i_size_write(inode, outarg.attr.size).
3. Process 'A' resumes execution of fuse_file_fallocate() and calls
fuse_write_update_size(inode, offset + length). But 'offset + length' was
obsoleted by ftruncate from previous step.
Changed in v2 (thanks Brian and Anand for suggestions):
- made relation between mutex_lock() and fuse_set_nowrite(inode) more
explicit and clear.
- updated patch description to use ftruncate(2) in example

This will probably be the last batch of wireless fixes intended
for 3.10. Many of these are one- or two-liners, and a couple of
others are mostly relocating existing code to avoid races or to
limit the code to effecting specific hardware, etc.
The mac80211 fixes have a couple of exceptions to the above.
Regarding those, Johannes says:
"Following davem's complaint about my patch, here's a new pull request
w/o the patch he was complaining about, but instead with the const
fix rolled into the fix.
I have a fix for radar detection, one for rate control and a workaround
for broken HT APs which is a regression fix because we didn't rely
on them to be correct before."
Johannes also sends some iwlwifi fixes:
"I picked up Nikolay's patch for the chain noise calibration bug
that seems to have been there forever, a fix from Emmanuel for
setting TX flags on BAR frames and a fix of my own to avoid printing
request_module() errors if the kernel isn't even modular. We also
have our own version of Stanislaw's fix for rate control."
Along with those...
Anderson Lizardo fixes a Bluetooth memory corruption bug when an MTU
value is set to too small of a value.
Arend van Spriel sends a revised brcmsmac bug that fixes a regression
caused by a bad return value in an earlier patch. He also sends a
brcmfmac fix to avoid an oops when loading the driver at boot.
Daniel Drake fixes a race condition in btmrvl that causes hangs on
suspend for OLPC hardware.
Johan Hedberg adds a check to avoid sending a
HCI_Delete_Stored_Link_Key command to devices that don't support them,
avoiding some scary looking log spam.
Stanislaw Gruszka gives us a fix for iwlegacy to be able to use rates
higher than 1Mb/s on older wireless networks. He also sends an rt2x00
fix to reinstate older tx power handling behavior for some devices
that didn't work well with the current code.

The current tg3 code assumes the pci_error_handlers to be always called
in sequence. In particular, during ->error_detected(), NAPI is disabled
and the device is shutdown. The device is later reset and NAPI
re-enabled in ->slot_reset() and ->resume().
In EEH, if more than 6 errors are detected in a hour, only
->error_detected() will be called. This will leave the driver in an
inconsistent state as NAPI is disabled but netif_running state is still
true. When the device is later closed, we'll try to disable NAPI again
and it will loop forever.
We fix this by closing the device if we encounter any error conditions
during the normal sequence of the pci_error_handlers.

There is a small race between when the cycle count is read from
the hardware and when the epoch stabilizes. Consider this
scenario:
CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
cyc = read_sched_clock()
cyc_to_sched_clock()
update_sched_clock()
...
cd.epoch_cyc = cyc;
epoch_cyc = cd.epoch_cyc;
...
epoch_ns + cyc_to_ns((cyc - epoch_cyc)
The cyc on cpu0 was read before the epoch changed. But we
calculate the nanoseconds based on the new epoch by subtracting
the new epoch from the old cycle count. Since epoch is most likely
larger than the old cycle count we calculate a large number that
will be converted to nanoseconds and added to epoch_ns, causing
time to jump forward too much.
Fix this problem by reading the hardware after the epoch has
stabilized.

-add 4 more seemingly straigtforward and relatively small changes

-add cosmetic UAPI comment update patch from Ying.

We remove the last remnants of the TIPC native API, to make it

Second, we convert the two remaining users of the native API, the

Third, we remove the remaining code pertaining to the native API.

pfifo_fast is set as default traffic class queueing discipline. This
queue has three so called "bands". Within each band, FIFO rules apply.
However, as long as there are packets waiting in band 0, band 1 won't
be processed.
Now all kind of TIPC type packet priorities are never set, that is,
their priorities are 0, so they are mapped to band 1 of pfifo_fast
qdisc. But, especially during link congestion, if link protocol packet
can be sent out as earlier as possible than other type of packets so
that protocol packet can arrive at peer endpoint in time, the peer
will timely reset its link timeout timer to keep the link alive.
So enhancing the priority of link protocol packets can meet the
specific demand to avoid unnecessary link reset due to a transient
link congestion.

As the new TIPC server infrastructure has been introduced, we can
now convert the TIPC topology server to it. We get two benefits
from doing this:
1) It simplifies the topology server locking policy. In the
original locking policy, we placed one spin lock pointer in the
tipc_subscriber structure to reuse the lock of the subscriber's
server port, controlling access to members of tipc_subscriber
instance. That is, we only used one lock to ensure both
tipc_port and tipc_subscriber members were safely accessed.
Now we introduce another spin lock for tipc_subscriber structure
only protecting themselves, to get a finer granularity locking
policy. Moreover, the change will allow us to make the topology
server code more readable and maintainable.
2) It fixes a bug where sent subscription events may be lost when
the topology port is congested. Using the new service, the
topology server now queues sent events into an outgoing buffer,
and then wakes up a sender process which has been blocked in
workqueue context. The process will keep picking events from the
buffer and send them to their respective subscribers, using the
kernel socket interface, until the buffer is empty. Even if the
socket is congested during transmission there is no risk that
events may be dropped, since the sender process may block when
needed.
Some minor reordering of initialization is done, since we now
have a scenario where the topology server must be started after
socket initialization has taken place, as the former depends
on the latter. And overall, we see a simplification of the
TIPC subscriber code in making this changeover.
