Device mapper uses its own bounce_pfn that may differ from one on underlying
device. In that way dm can build incorrect requests that contain sg elements
greater than underlying device is able to handle.
This is the cause of slab corruption in i2o layer, occurred on i386 arch when
very long direct IO requests are addressed to dm-over-i2o device.

After switching data directions, deadline always starts the next batch
from the lowest-sector request. This gives excessive deadline expiries
and large latency and throughput disparity between high- and low-sector
requests; an order of magnitude in some tests.
This patch changes the batching behaviour so new batches start from the
request whose expiry is earliest.

The deadline I/O scheduler does not reset the batch count when starting
a new batch at a higher-sectored request. This means the second and
subsequent batch in the same data direction will never exceed a single
request in size whenever higher-sectored requests are pending.
This patch gives new batches in the same data direction as old ones
their full quota of requests by resetting the batch count.

sg_mark_end() overwrites the page_link information, but all users want
__sg_mark_end() behaviour where we just set the end bit. That is the most
natural way to use the sg list, since you'll fill it in and then mark the
end point.
So change sg_mark_end() to only set the termination bit. Add a sg_magic
debug check as well, and clear a chain pointer if it is set.

It's assumed that .eh_frame is terminated with 4-byte 0 in shared
libraries and executable. It seems to be the case for VDSOs too.
Without this terminator, I saw failures when unwinding from VDSO,
though I don't know how other architectures handle this issue.
For the normal libs, crtendS.o gives this terminator. We can use
such terminating objects. Or we can add a 4-byte 0 with modifying
the linker script like as the patch below.

When testing the myri10ge driver with 2.6.24-rc1, I found
that the machine crashed under heavy load:
Unable to handle kernel paging request at 0000000000100108 RIP:
[<ffffffff803cc8dd>] net_rx_action+0x11b/0x184
The address corresponds to the list_move_tail() in
netif_rx_complete():
if (unlikely(work == weight))
list_move_tail(&n->poll_list, list);
Eventually, I traced the crashes to calling netif_rx_complete() with
work_done == budget. From looking at other drivers, it appears that
one should only call netif_rx_complete() when work_done < budget.
To fix it, I changed the test in myri10ge_poll() so that it refers
to to work_done rather than looking at the rx ring status. If
work_done is < budget, then that implies we have no more packets to
process. Any races will be resolved by the NIC when the write to
irq_claim is made.
In myri10ge_clean_rx_done(), if we ever exceeded our budget, it would
report a work_done one larger than was acutally done. This is because
the increment was done in the conditional, so work_done would be
incremented regardless of whether or not the test passed or failed.
This would lead to the WARN_ON_ONCE(work > weight); warning in
net_rx_action triggering. I've moved the increment of work_done
inside the loop. Note that this would only be a problem when we had
exceeded our budget.

When not building an arch/powerpc kernel, the mpc5200 FEC driver depends
on some symbols which are not defined (BESTCOMM & BESTCOMM_FEC).
This patch flips around the dependancy logic so that it cannot be
selected unless BESTCOMM_FEC is selected first. Kconfig stops
complaining this way.
Also, the driver only works for arch/powerpc (not arch/ppc) anyway so
it should depend on PPC_MERGE also.

The setup_net is called for the init net namespace

caller after the boot.
Yet again, in the perfect world this has to be under
#ifdef CONFIG_NET_NS, but it isn't guaranteed that every
subsystem is registered *after* the init_net_ns is set
up. After we are sure, that we don't start registering
them before the init net setup, we'll be able to move

The namespace creation/destruction code is never called
if the CONFIG_NET_NS is n, so it's OK to move it under
appropriate ifdef.
The copy_net_ns() in the "n" case checks for flags and
returns -EINVAL when new net ns is requested. In a perfect
world this stub must be in net_namespace.h, but this
function need to know the CLONE_NEWNET value and thus
requires sched.h. On the other hand this header is to be
injected into almost every .c file in the networking code,
and making all this code depend on the sched.h is a

When the new pernet something (subsys, device or operations) is

namespace, that currently exitst in the system. During the
unregister, the same is to be done with the exit callback.
However, not every pernet something has both calls, but the

inside the for_each_net() loop.

DSACK inside another SACK block were missed if start_seq of DSACK
was larger than SACK block's because sorting prioritizes full
processing of the SACK block before DSACK. After SACK block
sorting situation is like this:
SSSSSSSSS
D
SSSSSS
SSSSSSS
Because write_queue is walked in-order, when the first SACK block
has been processed, TCP is already past the skb for which the
DSACK arrived and we haven't taught it to backtrack (nor should
we), so TCP just continues processing by going to the next SACK
block after the DSACK (if any).
Whenever such DSACK is present, do an embedded checking during
the previous SACK block.
If the DSACK is below snd_una, there won't be overlapping SACK
block, and thus no problem in that case. Also if start_seq of
the DSACK is equal to the actual block, it will be processed
first.
Tested this by using netem to duplicate 15% of packets, and
by printing SACK block when found_dup_sack is true and the
selected skb in the dup_sack = 1 branch (if taken):
SACK block 0: 4344-5792 (relative to snd_una 2019137317)
SACK block 1: 4344-5792 (relative to snd_una 2019137317)
equal start seqnos => next_dup = 0, dup_sack = 1 won't occur...
SACK block 0: 5792-7240 (relative to snd_una 2019214061)
SACK block 1: 2896-7240 (relative to snd_una 2019214061)
DSACK skb match 5792-7240 (relative to snd_una)
...and next_dup = 1 case (after the not shown start_seq sort),
went to dup_sack = 1 branch.
