      [PATCH] iseries_veth: Supress spurious WARN_ON() at module unload · 243cd55e
      Michael Ellerman 提交于
      My patch from a few weeks back (now in mainline), called "Cleanup skbs to
      prevent unregister_netdevice() hanging", can cause our TX timeout code to
      fire on machines with lots of VLANs (because it takes > 2 seconds between
      when we stop the queues and when we're finished stopping the connections).
      
      When that happens the TX timeout code freaks out and does a WARN_ON()
      because as far as it's concerned there shouldn't be a TX timeout happening,
      which is fair enough.
      
      I have a "proper" fix for this, which is to a) do refcounting on
      connections and b) implement a proper ack timer so we don't keep unacked
      skbs lying around for ever.  But for 2.6.12 I propose just supressing the
      WARN_ON().  Users will still see the "NETDEV WATCHDOG" warning, but that's
      not nearly as bad as a WARN_ON() which users interpret as an Oops.

      [PATCH] PCI: MSI functionality broken on Serverworks GC chipset · 1e062767
      Narendra Sankar 提交于
      MSI functionality is broken on the GC_LE x86 chipset that Serverworks
      developed and that is being used in various platforms today. Broadcom is
      going to push out to the kernel MSI enabled Gigabit drivers (in the very
      near future), and we would like to make sure that MSI does not get
      enabled on any platforms using the GC_LE chipset (device id 0x17).
      Following the AMD 8131 example, I am including a patch to disable MSI
      functionality when a GCNB_LE is detected. Please let me know if there
      are any issues with this. This is a permanent fix for this chipset, as
      the hardware will not be updated.
