This patch fixes the c_entry_count counter of the mbcache. Currently it increments the counter first & allocate the cache entry later. In case of failure to allocate the entry due to insufficient memory this counter is still left incremented. This patch fixes this anomaly. Signed-off-by:

The __deprecated marker is quite useful in highlighting the remnants of old APIs that want removing. However, it is quite normal for one or more years to pass, before the (usually ancient, bitrotten) code in question is either updated or deleted. Thus, like __must_check, add a Kconfig option that permits the silencing of this compiler warning. This change mimics the ifdef-ery and Kconfig defaults of MUST_CHECK as closely as possible.

This fixes some totally illogical and wrong code that converts things to and from BCD mode essentially randomly, does math on values in BCD mode etc etc. Introduce a few helper functions to make it a bit more obvious what is going on, and make sure that we always do all the arithmetic (and anythign else, for that matter) in binary, not BCD. Tested by Mark Lord, who found the problem originally, and also pushed the patch back and reminded me about it. Signed-off-by:

The patch is big. Really big. You just won't believe how vastly hugely mindbogglingly big it is. I mean you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist, but that's just peanuts to how big the patch from 2.6.23 is. But it's all good. Signed-off-by: -

Set bits 0, 4, 5 and 7 of PCI configuration register 0x40 in the quirk. This has the following effects and is recommended by the vendor. * Force enable of IDE channels (used to be left alone as BIOS configured) * Change initial phase behavior of PIO cycle such that the host pulls down the bus instead of tristating it. Vendor recommends this setting. The above settings are better for the current generation of controllers and needed for the upcoming next generation. Tested on JMB363. Signed-off-by:

Did a complete audit of these and found we have another error case. ata_bus_softreset calls ata_check_status which means that it tries to do an ioread8 on the port blindly and check versus 0xFF for an error. It should of course be using the ap->ops method for this via chk_status, and this bug causes a wrog status call on the NS87415 at least. Signed-off-by:

Convert mii (link state) monitor to acquire correct locks for failover events. In particular, failovers generally require RTNL at a low level (when manipulating device MAC addresses, for example) and no other locks. The high level monitor is responsible for acquiring a known set of locks, RTNL, the bond->lock for read and the slave_lock for write, and the low level failover processing can then release appropriate locks as needed. This patch provides the high level portion. As it is undesirable to acquire RTNL for every monitor pass (which may occur as often as every 10 ms), the miimon has been converted to do conditional locking. A first pass inspects all slaves to determine if any action is required, and if so, a second pass (after acquring RTNL) is done to perform any actions (doing a complete rescan, as the situation may have changed when all locks were released).

Change locking in balance-rr transmit processing to use a free running counter to determine which slave to transmit on. Instead, a free-running counter is maintained, and modulo arithmetic used to select a slave for transmit. This removes lock operations from the TX path, and eliminates a deadlock introduced by the conversion to work queues. Signed-off-by:

Convert bonding timers to workqueues. This converts the various monitor functions to run in periodic work queues instead of timers. This patch introduces the framework and convers the calls, but does not resolve various locking issues, and does not stand alone. Signed-off-by:
