ar9170: wait for asynchronous firmware loading

2010-05-07T18:26:38Z

This patch fixes a regression introduced by the following patch: "ar9170: load firmware asynchronously" When we kick off a firmware loading request and then unbind, or disconnect the usb device right away, we get into trouble: > ------------[ cut here ]------------ > WARNING: at lib/kref.c:44 kref_get+0x1c/0x20() > Hardware name: 18666GU > Modules linked in: ar9170usb [...] > Pid: 6588, comm: firmware/ar9170 Not tainted 2.6.34-rc5-wl #43 > Call Trace: > [] ? warn_slowpath_common+0x6e/0xb0 > [] ? kref_get+0x1c/0x20 > [] ? warn_slowpath_null+0x13/0x20 > [] ? kref_get+0x1c/0x20 > [] ? kobject_get+0xf/0x20 > [] ? get_device+0x10/0x20 > [] ? device_add+0x60/0x530 > [] ? kobject_init+0x25/0xa0 > [] ? _request_firmware+0x139/0x3e0 > [] ? request_firmware_work_func+0x20/0x70 > [] ? request_firmware_work_func+0x0/0x70 > [] ? kthread+0x74/0x80 > [] ? kthread+0x0/0x80 > [] ? kernel_thread_helper+0x6/0x10 >---[ end trace 2d50bd818f64a1b7 ]--- - followed by a random Oops - Avoid that by waiting for the firmware loading to finish (whether successfully or not) before the unbind in ar9170_usb_disconnect.

veth: Dont kfree_skb() after dev_forward_skb()

2010-05-06T07:53:53Z

In case of congestion, netif_rx() frees the skb, so we must assume dev_forward_skb() also consume skb. Bug introduced by commit 445409602c092 (veth: move loopback logic to common location) We must change dev_forward_skb() to always consume skb, and veth to not double free it.

net/gianfar: drop recycled skbs on MTU change

2010-05-06T04:29:15Z

The size for skbs which is added to the recycled list is using the current descriptor size which is current MTU. gfar_new_skb() is also using this size. So after changing or alteast increasing the MTU all recycled skbs should be dropped. Signed-off-by: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior Acked-by: Andy Fleming Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: ep93xx_eth stops receiving packets

2010-05-04T06:21:27Z

Receiving small packet(s) in a fast pace leads to not receiving any packets at all after some time. After ethernet packet(s) arrived the receive descriptor is incremented by the number of frames processed. If another packet arrives while processing, this is processed in another call of ep93xx_rx. This second call leads that too many receive descriptors getting released. This fix increments, even in these case, the right number of processed receive descriptors.
