92cd3a17ce tg3: Simplify tx bd assignments
In the following patches, the process the driver will use to assign skb
fragments to transmit BDs will get more complicated.  To prepare for
that new code, this patch seeks to simplify how transmit BDs are
populated.  It does this by separating the code that assigns the BD
members from the logic that controls how the fields are set.

bca0beb936 ASIX: Use only 11 bits of header for data size
The AX88772B uses only 11 bits of the header for the actual size. The other bits
are used for something else. This causes dmesg full of messages:

	asix_rx_fixup() Bad Header Length

This patch trims the check to only 11 bits. I believe on older chips, the
remaining 5 top bits are unused.

I noticed that you took some time back in late 2009 to 'consolidate' the
split format-strings present in the bonding driver at the time and I've
decided I'm fine to leave them the way they are.  The main point of my
patch was to change the output and I would like to get that included.
Here is my updated patch...

Subject: [PATCH net-next-2.6 v2] bonding: reduce noise during init

Many are using sysfs to configure bonding rather than module options, so
there is no need for bonding to throw this warning in normal cases.

Keep the message around when debugging is enabled as it might be useful
for someone desperate enough to enable debugging, but eliminate it
otherwise.

f4bb2e9c4f bonding: fix string comparison errors
When a bond contains a device where one name is the subset of another
(eth1 and eth10, for example), one cannot properly set the primary
device or the currently active device.

This was reported and based on work by Takuma Umeya.  I also verified
the problem and tested that this fix resolves it.

V2: A few did not like the the current code or my changes, so I
refactored bonding_store_primary and bonding_store_active_slave to be a
bit cleaner, dropped the use of strnicmp since we did not really need
the comparison to be case insensitive, and formatted the input string
from sysfs so a comparison to IFNAMSIZ could be used.

I also discovered an error in bonding_store_active_slave that would
modify bond->primary_slave rather than bond->curr_active_slave before
forcing the bonding driver to choose a new active slave.

V3: Actually sending the proper patch....

550fd08c2c net: Audit drivers to identify those needing IFF_TX_SKB_SHARING cleared
After the last patch, We are left in a state in which only drivers calling
ether_setup have IFF_TX_SKB_SHARING set (we assume that drivers touching real
hardware call ether_setup for their net_devices and don't hold any state in
their skbs.  There are a handful of drivers that violate this assumption of
course, and need to be fixed up.  This patch identifies those drivers, and marks
them as not being able to support the safe transmission of skbs by clearning the
IFF_TX_SKB_SHARING flag in priv_flags

d887331506 net: add IFF_SKB_TX_SHARED flag to priv_flags
Pktgen attempts to transmit shared skbs to net devices, which can't be used by
some drivers as they keep state information in skbs.  This patch adds a flag
marking drivers as being able to handle shared skbs in their tx path.  Drivers
are defaulted to being unable to do so, but calling ether_setup enables this
flag, as 90% of the drivers calling ether_setup touch real hardware and can
handle shared skbs.  A subsequent patch will audit drivers to ensure that the
flag is set properly

4ba991d3eb sparc: Detect and handle UltraSPARC-T3 cpu types.
The cpu compatible string we look for is "SPARC-T3".

As far as memset/memcpy optimizations go, we treat this chip the same
as Niagara-T2/T2+.  Use cache initializing stores for memset, and use
perfetch, FPU block loads, cache initializing stores, and block stores
for copies.

We use the Niagara-T2 perf support, since T3 is a close relative in
this regard.  Later we'll add support for the new events T3 can
report, plus enable T3's new "sample" mode.

For now I haven't added any new ELF hwcap flags.  We probably need
to add a couple, for example:

T2 and T3 both support the population count instruction in hardware.

T3 supports VIS3 instructions, including support (finally) for
partitioned shift.  One can also now move directly between float
and integer registers.

T3 supports instructions meant to help with Galois Field and other HPC
calculations, such as XOR multiply.  Also there are "OP and negate"
instructions, for example "fnmul" which is multiply-and-negate.

T3 recognizes the transactional memory opcodes, however since
transactional memory isn't supported: 1) 'commit' behaves as a NOP and
2) 'chkpt' always branches 3) 'rdcps' returns all zeros and 4) 'wrcps'
behaves as a NOP.

So we'll need about 3 new elf capability flags in the end to represent
all of these things.

5e5702898e md/raid10: Handle read errors during recovery better.
Currently when we get a read error during recovery, we simply abort
the recovery.

Instead, repeat the read in page-sized blocks.
On successful reads, write to the target.
On read errors, record a bad block on the destination,
and only if that fails do we abort the recovery.

As we now retry reads we need to know where we read from.  This was in
bi_sector but that can be changed during a read attempt.
So store the correct from_addr and to_addr in the r10_bio for later
access.

This isn't really necessary.  recovery_request_write will signal
a write error to end_sync_write and it will record a write

there or kick it from the array.

f84ee364dd md/raid10: attempt to fix read errors during resync/check
We already attempt to fix read errors found during normal IO
and a 'repair' process.
It is best to try to repair them at any time they are found,
so move a test so that during sync and check a read error will
be corrected by over-writing with good data.

If both (all) devices have known bad blocks in the sync section we
won't try to fix even though the bad blocks might not overlap.  That
should be considered later.

Also if we hit a read error during recovery we don't try to fix it.
It would only be possible to fix if there were at least three copies
of data, which is not very common with RAID10.  But it should still
be considered later.

856e08e237 md/raid10: avoid reading from known bad blocks - part 1
This patch just covers the basic read path:
 1/ read_balance needs to check for badblocks, and return not only
    the chosen slot, but also how many good blocks are available
    there.
 2/ read submission must be ready to issue multiple reads to
    different devices as different bad blocks on different devices
    could mean that a single large read cannot be served by any one
    device, but can still be served by the array.
    This requires keeping count of the number of outstanding requests
    per bio.  This count is stored in 'bi_phys_segments'

On read error we currently just fail the request if another target
cannot handle the whole request.  Next patch refines that a bit.

2/ when reading into the stripe cache.  In this case we
   mark as failed any device which has a bad block in that
   strip (1 page wide).
   Note that we will both avoid reading and avoid writing.
   This is correct (as we will never read from the block, there
   is no point writing), but not optimal (as writing could 'fix'
   the error) - that will be addressed later.

If we have not seen any write errors on the device yet, we treat a bad
block like a recent read error.  This will encourage an attempt to fix
the read error which will either generate a write error, or will
ensure good data is stored there.  We don't yet forget the bad block
in that case.  That comes later.

Now that we honour bad blocks when reading we can allow devices with
bad blocks into the array.

62096bce23 md/raid1: factor several functions out or raid1d()
raid1d is too big with several deep branches.
So separate them out into their own functions.

3a9f28a511 md/raid1: improve handling of read failure during recovery.
If we cannot read a block from anywhere during recovery, there is
now a better approach than just giving up.
We can record a bad block on each device and keep going - being
careful not to clear the bad block when a write succeeds as it might -
it will be a write of incorrect data.

We have now reached the state where - for raid1 - we only call
md_error if md_set_badblocks has failed.

d8f05d2995 md/raid1: record badblocks found during resync etc.
If we find a bad block while writing as part of resync/recovery we
need to report that back to raid1d which must record the bad block,
or fail the device.

Similarly when fixing a read error, a further error should just
record a bad block if possible rather than failing the device.

cd5ff9a16f md/raid1: Handle write errors by updating badblock log.
When we get a write error (in the data area, not in metadata),
update the badblock log rather than failing the whole device.

As the write may well be many blocks, we trying writing each
block individually and only log the ones which fail.

2ca68f5ed7 md/raid1: store behind-write pages in bi_vecs.
When performing write-behind we allocate pages to store the data
during write.
Previously we just keep a list of pages.  Now we keep a list of
bi_vec which includes offset and size.
This means that the r1bio has complete information to create a new
bio which will be needed for retrying after write errors.

4367af5561 md/raid1: clear bad-block record when write succeeds.
If we succeed in writing to a block that was recorded as
being bad, we clear the bad-block record.

This requires some delayed handling as the bad-block-list update has
to happen in process-context.

If we have seen any write error on a drive, then don't write to
any known-bad blocks on that drive.
If necessary, we divide the write request up into pieces just
like we do for reads, so each piece is either all written or
all not written to any given drive.
