<title>[PATCH] iseries_veth: Supress spurious WARN_ON() at module unload</title>

<content type='text'>
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 &gt; 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.

Fix 5700/5701 DMA write corruption on Apple G4 by detecting the Apple
UniNorth PCI 1.5 chipset and adjusting the DMA write boundary to 16. DMA
test fails to detect the problem with this chipset.

Thanks to Manuel Perez Ayala for reporting the problem and helping to
debug it.

On some 5701 devices with older bootcode, the LED configuration bits in
SRAM may be invalid with value zero. The fix is to check for invalid
bits (0) and default to PHY 1 mode. Incorrect LED mode will lead to
error in programming the PHY.

Thanks to Grant Grundler for debugging the problem.

&gt;From Grant:
| In May, 2004,  tg3 v3.4 changed how MAC_LED_CTRL (0x40c) was getting
| programmed and how to determine what to program into LED_CTRL. The new
| code trusted NIC_SRAM_DATA_CFG (0x00000b58) to indicate what to write
| to LED_CTRL and MII EXT_CTRL registers. On "IOX Core Lan", SRAM was
| saying MODE_MAC (0x0) and that doesn't work.
