Different chips have different sizes of ram buffers, and some versions have
no ram buffer at all!. Be more careful about sizing the ram usage because
it maybe a problem if vendor keeps changing sizes.
There is the (unlikely) possibility that some of the errors on some of the
chips have been caused by partitioning not on a 1K boundary.

It is possible for the sky2 driver NAPI poll routine to be called with
IRQ's disabled if netpoll is trying to make space in the tx queue. This
is an obscure path, but if it happens, the kfree_skb needs to happen
via softirq. Calling kfree_skb with IRQ's disabled is a not allowed.

The sky2 driver uses a single NAPI poll routine for both ports on dual ported
cards (because there is a single IRQ and status ring). Netpoll makes assumptions
about the relationship between network device and NAPI that aren't correct
on the second port, this will cause the port to never clear work.
Most systems, just have single port, so not a big issue.
The easy fix is just make the second port, not netpoll capable.

The reason sky2 driver was locking up on transmit on the Yukon-FE chipset
is that it was misconfiguring the internal RAM buffer so the transmitter
and receiver were sharing the same space.
The code assumed there was 16K of RAM on Yukon-FE (taken from vendor driver
sk98lin which is even more f*cked up on this). Then it assigned based on that.
The giveaway was that the registers would only hold 9bits so both RX/TX
had 0..1ff for space. It is a wonder it worked at all!
This patch addresses this, and fixes an easily reproducible hang on Transmit.
Only the Yukon-FE chip is Marvell 88E803X (10/100 only) are affected.

The pci express error handling extensions don't work unless PCI access is via
mmconfig. Otherwise, all accesses to pci config registers greater than 256 fail.
Since the sky2 driver has other ways of getting to PCI config space, it works
around this short coming, but the pci_find_ext_capablity doesn't work.
This backs out commit 91aeb3edbc
Go back to hardcoding, since we know where the error registers are anyway.

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.
