[PATCH] ipw2200: stack reduction

Checking the stack usage of my kernel, showed that ipw2200 had a few bad
offenders. This is on i386 32-bit:

0x00002876 ipw_send_associate:                          544
0x000028ee ipw_send_associate:                          544
0x000027dc ipw_send_scan_request_ext:                   520
0x00002864 ipw_set_sensitivity:                         520
0x00005eac ipw_set_rsn_capa:                            520

The reason is the host_cmd structure is large (500 bytes). All other
functions currently using ipw_send_cmd() suffer from the same problem.
This patch introduces ipw_send_cmd_simple() for commands with no data
transfer, and ipw_send_cmd_pdu() for commands with a data payload and
makes the payload a pointer to the buffer passed in from the caller.

As an added bonus, the diffstat looks like this:

 ipw2200.c |  260 +++++++++++++++++++++-----------------------------------------
 ipw2200.h |    2
 2 files changed, 92 insertions(+), 170 deletions(-)

and it shrinks the module a lot as well:

Before:

   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
  75177    2472      44   77693   12f7d drivers/net/wireless/ipw2200.ko

  61363    2488      44   63895    f997 drivers/net/wireless/ipw2200.ko

[PATCH] ipw2200: Scale firmware loading watchdog with the firmware size

I can't really help with why restarts happen, but the following patch
greatly increases the likelihood that a firmware reload will succeed
afterward on my thinkpad. It addresses two issues. First, sysfs module
loading and hotplug are asynchronous, and as such file operations on the
"loading" and "data" files are racy when you load 2 firmwares in quick
succession. Second, the timeout for DMAing the firmware needs to scale
with the size of the firmware being loaded. That is, the watchdog needs
to be on throughput, not on time alone.

I no longer get the firmware load errors, though this is at best a hacky
workaround for a racy interface. (Obviously, this does nothing to address
the fatal errors in firmware which cause reloads; it just causes the
initial loading and the reloads to work more often.)

Tx Power off means turn off the radio, but the driver interpret it as
"can't set txpower". So when getting the txpower, it sets disabled=1 to
the iwconifg tool in managed mode. And the tool will display "Tx Power off"
when disabled=1.

Now, in managed mode, iwconfig will not show "TX Power" if the radio is not
switched off. It will only display "Tx Power off" only if the radio is killed.

elements.  Moved all information elements into single location (called
from two places).  Added debug message with information on unparsed IEs
if debug_level set.  Added code to reset network IBSS DFS information
when appropriate.  Added code to invoke driver callback for 802.11h
ACTION STYPE.  Changed a few printk's to IEEE80211_DEBUG_MGMT.

[PATCH] ieee80211: Add helpers for IBSS DFS handling

To support IEEE 802.11h in IBSS, an ibss_dfs field is added to struct
ieee80211_network. In IBSS, if one STA sends a beacon with DFS info
(for radar detection), all the other STAs should receive and store
this DFS.  All STAs should send the DFS as one of the information
element in the beacon they are scheduled to send (if possible) in
the future.

Since the ibss_dfs has variable length, it must be allocated
dynamically. ieee80211_network_reset() is added to clear the ibss_dfs
field. ieee80211_network_free() is also updated to free the ibss_dfs
field if it is not NULL.

David Woodhouse [Thu, 19 Jan 2006 01:44:05 +0000 (17:44 -0800)]
[PATCH] Add pselect/ppoll system call implementation

The following implementation of ppoll() and pselect() system calls
depends on the architecture providing a TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK flag in the
thread_info.

These system calls have to change the signal mask during their
operation, and signal handlers must be invoked using the new, temporary
signal mask. The old signal mask must be restored either upon successful
exit from the system call, or upon returning from the invoked signal
handler if the system call is interrupted. We can't simply restore the
original signal mask and return to userspace, since the restored signal
mask may actually block the signal which interrupted the system call.

The TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK flag deals with this by causing the syscall exit
path to trap into do_signal() just as TIF_SIGPENDING does, and by
causing do_signal() to use the saved signal mask instead of the current
signal mask when setting up the stack frame for the signal handler -- or
by causing do_signal() to simply restore the saved signal mask in the
case where there is no handler to be invoked.

The first patch implements the sys_pselect() and sys_ppoll() system
calls, which are present only if TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK is defined. That
#ifdef should go away in time when all architectures have implemented
it. The second patch implements TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK for the PowerPC
kernel (in the -mm tree), and the third patch then removes the
arch-specific implementations of sys_rt_sigsuspend() and replaces them
with generic versions using the same trick.

The fourth and fifth patches, provided by David Howells, implement
TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK for FR-V and i386 respectively, and the sixth patch
adds the syscalls to the i386 syscall table.

This patch:

Add the pselect() and ppoll() system calls, providing core routines usable by
the original select() and poll() system calls and also the new calls (with
their semantics w.r.t timeouts).

[PATCH] Handle TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK for i386

Handle TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK as added by David Woodhouse's patch entitled:

        [PATCH] 2/3 Add TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK support for arch/powerpc
        [PATCH] 3/3 Generic sys_rt_sigsuspend

It does the following:

 (1) Declares TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK for i386.

 (2) Invokes it over to do_signal() when TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK is set.

 (3) Makes do_signal() support TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK, using the signal mask saved
     in current->saved_sigmask.

 (4) Discards sys_rt_sigsuspend() from the arch, using the generic one instead.

 (5) Makes sys_sigsuspend() save the signal mask and set TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK
     rather than attempting to fudge the return registers.

 (6) Makes sys_sigsuspend() return -ERESTARTNOHAND rather than looping
     intrinsically.

 (7) Makes setup_frame(), setup_rt_frame() and handle_signal() return 0 or
     -EFAULT rather than true/false to be consistent with the rest of the
     kernel.

Due to the fact do_signal() is then only called from one place:

 (8) Makes do_signal() no longer have a return value is it was just being
     ignored; force_sig() takes care of this.

 (9) Discards the old sigmask argument to do_signal() as it's no longer
     necessary.

(10) Makes do_signal() static.

(11) Marks the second argument to do_notify_resume() as unused. The unused
     argument should remain in the middle as the arguments are passed in as
     registers, and the ordering is specific in entry.S

Given the way do_signal() is now no longer called from sys_{,rt_}sigsuspend(),
they no longer need access to the exception frame, and so can just take
arguments normally.

This patch depends on sys_rt_sigsuspend patch.

[PATCH] vfs: *at functions: core

Here is a series of patches which introduce in total 13 new system calls
which take a file descriptor/filename pair instead of a single file
name.  These functions, openat etc, have been discussed on numerous
occasions.  They are needed to implement race-free filesystem traversal,
they are necessary to implement a virtual per-thread current working
directory (think multi-threaded backup software), etc.

We have in glibc today implementations of the interfaces which use the
/proc/self/fd magic.  But this code is rather expensive.  Here are some
results (similar to what Jim Meyering posted before).

The test creates a deep directory hierarchy on a tmpfs filesystem.  Then
rm -fr is used to remove all directories.  Without syscall support I get
this:

real    0m31.921s
user    0m0.688s
sys     0m31.234s

With syscall support the results are much better:

real    0m20.699s
user    0m0.536s
sys     0m20.149s

The interfaces are for obvious reasons currently not much used.  But they'll
be used.  coreutils (and Jeff's posixutils) are already using them.
Furthermore, code like ftw/fts in libc (maybe even glob) will also start using
them.  I expect a patch to make follow soon.  Every program which is walking
the filesystem tree will benefit.

kernel to send a final context init reply.  However, gssd could be buggy, or
under some bizarre circumstances we might purge the context from our cache
before we get the chance to use it here.

Handle this case by returning GSS_S_NO_CONTEXT to the client.

Also move the relevant code here to a separate function rather than nesting
excessively.
