Drivers: scsi: storvsc: Implement a eh_timed_out handler

2014-09-13T22:41:39+00:00

commit 56b26e69c8283121febedd12b3cc193384af46b9 upstream.

On Azure, we have seen instances of unbounded I/O latencies. To deal with
this issue, implement handler that can reset the timeout. Note that the
host gaurantees that it will respond to each command that has been issued.

staging: vt6655: Fix disassociated messages every 10 seconds

2014-09-13T22:41:39+00:00

commit 4aa0abed3a2a11b7d71ad560c1a3e7631c5a31cd upstream.

byReAssocCount is incremented every second resulting in
disassociated message being send every 10 seconds whether
connection or not.

byReAssocCount should only advance while eCommandState
is in WLAN_ASSOCIATE_WAIT

Change existing scope to if condition.

skb: Add inline helper for getting the skb end offset from head

2014-06-09T12:29:00+00:00

[ Upstream commit ec47ea82477404631d49b8e568c71826c9b663ac ]

With the recent changes for how we compute the skb truesize it occurs to me
we are probably going to have a lot of calls to skb_end_pointer -
skb->head.  Instead of running all over the place doing that it would make
more sense to just make it a separate inline skb_end_offset(skb) that way
we can return the correct value without having gcc having to do all the
optimization to cancel out skb->head - skb->head.

commit f764cd68d9036498f08fe8834deb6a367b5c2542 upstream.

Zero-initializing ether_type masked that the ether type would never be
obtained for 8021x packets and the comparison against eapol_type
would always fail.

staging: comedi: pcmuio: fix possible NULL deref on detach

2014-04-01T23:58:59+00:00

commit 2fd2bdfccae61efe18f6b92b6a45fbf936d75b48 upstream.

pcmuio_detach() is called by the comedi core even if pcmuio_attach()
returned an error, so `dev->private` might be `NULL`.  Check for that
before dereferencing it.

Also, as pointed out by Dan Carpenter, there is no need to check the
pointer passed to `kfree()` is non-NULL, so remove that check.

staging: comedi: adv_pci1710: fix analog output readback value

2014-04-01T23:58:50+00:00

commit 1e85c1ea1ff2a60659e790ef8ec76c7339445841 upstream.

The last value written to a analog output channel is cached in the
private data of this driver for readback.

Currently, the wrong value is cached in the (*insn_write) functions.
The current code stores the data[n] value for readback afer the loop
has written all the values. At this time 'n' points past the end of
the data array.

Fix the functions by using a local variable to hold the data being
written to the analog output channel. This variable is then used
after the loop is complete to store the readback value. The current
value is retrieved before the loop in case no values are actually
written..
