Dominik Brodowski 5fa9167a1b pcmcia: rework the irq_req_t typedef
Most of the irq_req_t typedef'd struct can be re-worked quite
easily:

(1) IRQInfo2 was unused in any case, so drop it.

(2) IRQInfo1 was used write-only, so drop it.

(3) Instance (private data to be passed to the IRQ handler):
	Most PCMCIA drivers using pcmcia_request_irq() to actually
	register an IRQ handler set the "dev_id" to the same pointer
	as the "priv" pointer in struct pcmcia_device. Modify the two
	exceptions (ipwireless, ibmtr_cs) to also work this waym and
	set the IRQ handler's "dev_id" to p_dev->priv unconditionally.

(4) Handler is to be of type irq_handler_t.

(5) Handler != NULL already tells whether an IRQ handler is present.
	Therefore, we do not need the IRQ_HANDLER_PRESENT flag in
	irq_req_t.Attributes.

Dominik Brodowski dd0fab5b94 pcmcia: use dynamic debug infrastructure, deprecate CS_CHECK (net)
Convert PCMCIA drivers to use the dynamic debug infrastructure, instead of
requiring manual settings of PCMCIA_DEBUG. Only some rare debug checks are
now hidden behind "#ifdef DEBUG" or "#if 0".

Also, remove all usages of the CS_CHECK macro and replace them with proper
Linux style calling and return value checking. The extra error reporting may
be dropped, as the PCMCIA core already complains about any (non-driver-author)
errors.

Cord Walter 208fbec5be axnet_cs / pcnet_cs: moving PCMCIA_DEVICE_PROD_ID for Netgear FA411
Hi,

after noticing that my Netgear FA411 (PCMCIA-NIC) [1] stopped working with
the release of the 2.6.25 kernel (sidux-version), I checked the
respective driver sources and noticed that the pcnet_cs driver bailed
out with "use axnet_cs instead" for the Netgear FA411, but axnet_cs
doesn't claim this ID.

I compiled a kernel with the PCMCIA-ID for the netgear card moved to
axnet_cs from pcnet_cs which worked. I then contacted sidux-kernel
maintainer Stefan Lippers-Hollmann who turned the info into this patch
and integrated it into the kernel:

<http://svn.berlios.de/svnroot/repos/fullstory/linux-sidux-2.6/trunk/debian/patches/features/2.6.27.4_PCMCIA_move-PCMCIA-ID-for-Netgear-FA411-from-pcnet_cs-to-axnet_cs.patch>

This works for me and AFAIK there were no reports of any breakage for
other devices on sidux-support.

This looks like a trivial patch, but since I have very limited
experience with kernel modifications  I might be woefully wrong there.
But if there are no side effects of this patch, is it possible to get it
into the official kernel?

I can provide more detailed information on the affected hardware if
necessary.

David S. Miller babcda74e9 drivers/net: Kill now superfluous ->last_rx stores.
The generic packet receive code takes care of setting
netdev->last_rx when necessary, for the sake of the
bonding ARP monitor.

Drivers need not do it any more.

Some cases had to be skipped over because the drivers
were making use of the ->last_rx value themselves.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo d626f62b11 [SK_BUFF]: Introduce skb_copy_from_linear_data{_offset}
To clearly state the intent of copying from linear sk_buffs, _offset being a
overly long variant but interesting for the sake of saving some bytes.

Dominik Brodowski af2b3b503a [PATCH] pcmcia: conf.ConfigBase and conf.Present consolidation
struct pcmcia_device *p_dev->conf.ConfigBase and .Present are set in almost
all PCMICA driver right at the beginning, using the same calls but slightly
different implementations. Unfiy this in the PCMCIA core.

Includes a small bugfix ("drivers/net/pcmcia/xirc2ps_cs.c: remove unused
label") from and Signed-off-by Adrian Bunk <bunk@stusta.de>

David Howells 7d12e780e0 IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlers
Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
Linux kernel.

The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
space and code to pass it around.  On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
(ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).

Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
something different with the variable.  On FRV, for instance, the address is
maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
handling.

Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
through up to twenty or so layers of functions.  Consider a USB character
device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller.  A character
device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.

I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386.  I've runtested the
main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
with minimal configurations.

This will affect all archs.  Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:

	struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);

And put the old one back at the end:

	set_irq_regs(old_regs);

Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().

In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:

	-	update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
	-	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
	+	update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
	+	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);

I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().

Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:

 (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely.  The regs pointer is no longer stored in
     the input_dev struct.

 (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking.  It does
     something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
     pointer or not.

 (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
     irq_handler_t.
