x86 Fix VMI crash on boot in 2.6.28-rc8

VMI initialiation can relocate the fixmap, causing early_ioremap to
malfunction if it is initialized before the relocation.  To fix this,
VMI activation is split into two phases; the detection, which must
happen before setting up ioremap, and the activation, which must happen
after parsing early boot parameters.

This fixes a crash on boot when VMI is enabled under VMware.

15 years agoconsole ASCII glyph 1:1 mapping
Ingo Brueckl [Wed, 10 Dec 2008 22:35:00 +0000 (23:35 +0100)] 
console ASCII glyph 1:1 mapping

For the console, there is a 1:1 mapping of glyphs which cannot be found
in the current font.  This seems to be meant as a kind of 'emergency
fallback' for fonts without unicode mapping which otherwise would
display nothing readable on the screen.

At the moment it affects all chars for which no substitution character
is defined.  In particular this means that for all chars (>= 128) where
there is no iso88591-1/unicode character (e.g.  control character area)
you'll get the very strange 1:1 mapping of the (cp437) graphics card
glyphs.

I'm pretty sure that the 1:1 mapping should only affect strict ASCII
code characters, i.e.  chars < 128.

The patch limits the mapping as it probably was meant anyway.

sfc: Work around unreliable strap pins

The SFC4000 has strap pins indicating the presence of SPI flash and/or
EEPROM.  These pins are also used for GPIO, and in some cases they may
be read wrongly at reset.  However, on production boards it must boot
from one or the other device, so we can assume the boot device is
present and read the board config from there.

15 years agosfc: Clean up waits for flash/EEPROM operations
Ben Hutchings [Sat, 13 Dec 2008 05:33:50 +0000 (21:33 -0800)] 
sfc: Clean up waits for flash/EEPROM operations

Make falcon_spi_wait() ignore the write timer - it is only relevant to
write commands, it only works for the device that contains VPD, and it
might not be initialised properly at all.

Rename falcon_spi_fast_wait() to falcon_spi_wait_write(), reflecting
its use, and make it wait up to 10 ms (not 1 ms) since buffered writes
to EEPROM may take this long to complete.

Make both wait functions sleep instead of busy-waiting.

Replace wait for command completion at top of falcon_spi_cmd() with a
single poll; no command should be running when the function starts.

Correct some comments.

mac80211: Disable requests for new scans in AP mode

AP mode operations are seriously affected if mac80211 runs through a
multi-second scan while the AP is trying to send Beacon frames on the
operation channel. While this could be implemented in a way that does
not cause too many problems, it is not very simple and will require
synchronization with Beacon frame scheduling in the drivers (scan one
channel at a time between Beacon frames). Furthermore, such scanning
takes quite a bit longer time and existing userspace applications
would be likely to timeout while waiting for the results.

For now, just refuse requests for new scans (SIOCSIWSCAN) when in AP
mode. In practice, this moves the rejection from iwl* drivers into
mac80211 to make it apply to every mac80211-based driver.

This issue shows up in associated stations getting disconnected when
something (e.g., Network Manager) requests a scan while the interface
is in AP mode. When doing this continuously (e.g., NM does it every 120
seconds), the network gets close to useless.

ipw2200: fix scanning while associated

This patch fixes sporadic firmware restarts when scanning while associated.

The firmware will quietly cancel a scan (while associated) if the dwell time
for a channel to be scanned is larger than the time it may stay away from the
operating channel (because of DTIM catching). Unfortunately the driver is not
notified about the canceled scan and therefore the scan watchdog timeout will
be hit and the driver causes a firmware restart which results in
disassociation. This mainly happens on passive channels which use a dwell time
of 120 whereas a typical beacon interval is around 100.

The patch changes the dwell time for passive channels to be slightly smaller
than the actual beacon interval to work around the firmware issue. Furthermore
the number of allowed beacon misses is increased from one to three as otherwise
most scans (while associated) won't complete successfully.

However scanning while associated will still fail in corner cases such as a
beacon intervals below 30.
