After discovering that wide use of prefetch on modern CPUs
could be a net loss instead of a win, net drivers which were
relying on the implicit inclusion of prefetch.h via the list
headers showed up in the resulting cleanup fallout. Give
them an explicit include via the following $0.02 script.
=========================================
#!/bin/bash
MANUAL=""
for i in `git grep -l 'prefetch(.*)' .` ; do
grep -q '<linux/prefetch.h>' $i
if [ $? = 0 ] ; then
continue
fi
( echo '?^#include <linux/?a'
echo '#include <linux/prefetch.h>'
echo .
echo w
echo q
) | ed -s $i > /dev/null 2>&1
if [ $? != 0 ]; then
echo $i needs manual fixup
MANUAL="$i $MANUAL"
fi
done
echo ------------------- 8\<----------------------
echo vi $MANUAL

fresh skbs have ip_summed set to CHECKSUM_NONE (0)
We can avoid setting again skb->ip_summed to CHECKSUM_NONE in drivers.
Introduce skb_checksum_none_assert() helper so that we keep this
assertion documented in driver sources.
Change most occurrences of :
skb->ip_summed = CHECKSUM_NONE;
by :
skb_checksum_none_assert(skb);

This patch removes from drivers/net/ all the unnecessary
return; statements that precede the last closing brace of
void functions.
It does not remove the returns that are immediately
preceded by a label as gcc doesn't like that.
It also does not remove null void functions with return.
Done via:
$ grep -rP --include=*.[ch] -l "return;\n}" net/ | \
xargs perl -i -e 'local $/ ; while (<>) { s/\n[ \t\n]+return;\n}/\n}/g; print; }'
with some cleanups by hand.
Compile tested x86 allmodconfig only.

implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Convert arch/powerpc/ over to long long based u64:
-#ifdef __powerpc64__
-# include <asm-generic/int-l64.h>
-#else
-# include <asm-generic/int-ll64.h>
-#endif
+#include <asm-generic/int-ll64.h>
This will avoid reoccuring spurious warnings in core kernel code that
comes when people test on their own hardware. (i.e. x86 in ~98% of the
cases) This is what x86 uses and it generally helps keep 64-bit code
32-bit clean too.

Add per-device dma_mapping_ops support for CONFIG_X86_64 as POWER
architecture does:
This enables us to cleanly fix the Calgary IOMMU issue that some devices
are not behind the IOMMU (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/5/8/423).
I think that per-device dma_mapping_ops support would be also helpful for
KVM people to support PCI passthrough but Andi thinks that this makes it
difficult to support the PCI passthrough (see the above thread). So I
CC'ed this to KVM camp. Comments are appreciated.
A pointer to dma_mapping_ops to struct dev_archdata is added. If the
pointer is non NULL, DMA operations in asm/dma-mapping.h use it. If it's
NULL, the system-wide dma_ops pointer is used as before.
If it's useful for KVM people, I plan to implement a mechanism to register
a hook called when a new pci (or dma capable) device is created (it works
with hot plugging). It enables IOMMUs to set up an appropriate
dma_mapping_ops per device.
The major obstacle is that dma_mapping_error doesn't take a pointer to the
device unlike other DMA operations. So x86 can't have dma_mapping_ops per
device. Note all the POWER IOMMUs use the same dma_mapping_error function
so this is not a problem for POWER but x86 IOMMUs use different
dma_mapping_error functions.
The first patch adds the device argument to dma_mapping_error. The patch
is trivial but large since it touches lots of drivers and dma-mapping.h in
all the architecture.
This patch:
dma_mapping_error() doesn't take a pointer to the device unlike other DMA
operations. So we can't have dma_mapping_ops per device.
Note that POWER already has dma_mapping_ops per device but all the POWER
IOMMUs use the same dma_mapping_error function. x86 IOMMUs use device
argument.

iph->tot_len is stored in network byte order, so access it using

the device only exists as part of a big-endian system-on-chip, but
fixing this gets rid of a sparse warning and avoids having a bad example

First cut at jumbo frame support. To support large MTU, one or several
separate channels must be allocated to calculate the TCP/UDP checksum
separately, since the mac lacks enough buffers to hold a whole packet
while it's being calculated.
Furthermore, it seems that a single function channel is not quite
enough to feed one of the 10Gig links, so allocate two channels for
XAUI interfaces.

pasemi_mac: Improve RX interrupt mitigation
Currently the receive side interrupts will go off on the reception of
a packet, NAPI will poll the ring and keep polling as long as there's
a decent amount of packets to receive.
This is less than optimal, especially for LRO where it's better if we
have a more substantial amount of packets to process at once, to get
the real LRO benefits.
So, set the count threshold to a higher value and use the timeout feature
that will give us an interrupt even if not enough packets have come in
to set off the count threshold.
FIXME: It'd be real nice to have ethtool support for users to tune this
at runtime.

pasemi_mac: Fix TX cleaning
This is a bit awkward. We don't have a timer-delayed interrupt on TX
complete, but we have a count threshold. So set that reasonably high
(32 packets), and schedule the NAPI poll when it goes off. Also bump a
regular timer that will take care of rotting packets for the last 1..31
ones in case we don't trigger a TX interrupt (and there's no RX activity
that would otherwise trigger the poll).
The longer-term fix is to separate TX from RX NAPI and do two separate
poll loops.

pasemi_mac: add local skb alignment
