Hi Jeff,
this is a RESEND of the nine s390 network driver patches.
I finally found  that my kmail corrupted almost every patch
I sent the last time. Please apply these 9 patches and forget
about my first attempt! Sorry for the delay, I had some fights
with sendmail, IMAP and mutt configuration.

[RESEND PATCH 1/9] s390: minor s390 network driver fixes

From: Frank Pavlic <fpavlic@de.ibm.com>
	- iucv driver:
          use do { } while (0) constructs
	  instead of empty defines to avoid compile bugs.
        - ctc driver:
          missing lock initialization added
        - lcs driver:
          BUG_ON usage was removed accidently
	  with the last lcs patch.
          Put them back in place.

7967168cef [NET]: Merge TSO/UFO fields in sk_buff
Having separate fields in sk_buff for TSO/UFO (tso_size/ufo_size) is not
going to scale if we add any more segmentation methods (e.g., DCCP).  So
let's merge them.

They were used to tell the protocol of a packet.  This function has been
subsumed by the new gso_type field.  This is essentially a set of netdev
feature bits (shifted by 16 bits) that are required to process a specific
skb.  As such it's easy to tell whether a given device can process a GSO
skb: you just have to and the gso_type field and the netdev's features
field.

I've made gso_type a conjunction.  The idea is that you have a base type
(e.g., SKB_GSO_TCPV4) that can be modified further to support new features.
For example, if we add a hardware TSO type that supports ECN, they would
declare NETIF_F_TSO | NETIF_F_TSO_ECN.  All TSO packets with CWR set would
have a gso_type of SKB_GSO_TCPV4 | SKB_GSO_TCPV4_ECN while all other TSO
packets would be SKB_GSO_TCPV4.  This means that only the CWR packets need
to be emulated in software.

	To fix all problems at once recovery of lcs devices has been improved.
	missing error checks in lcs interrupt handler has been added.

	  because skb might already be freed.
        - remove yet another useless netif_wake_queue in
	  qeth_softsetup_ipv6 since this function is only called

Hi jeff,
after the first shot I sent to you did not apply I
resend  two new patches I've made today to remove tty from ctc network driver.
Please apply ....

Thank you ...

Frank

From: Peter Tiedemann <ptiedem@de.ibm.com>
        [1/2]:
        tty support code will be removed from the ctc network device driver.
        Today we have a couple of alternatives which are performing much
        better. The second thing is that ctc should be a network
        device driver only.
        We should not mix tty and networking here.
        This first patch will remove the tty code from ctcmain.c .
        It also removes the build entry from the Makefile as well as TTY
        definitions from ctcmain.h.
        The second patch will remove two files, ctctty.c and ctctty.h.

33f0f88f1c [PATCH] TTY layer buffering revamp
The API and code have been through various bits of initial review by
serial driver people but they definitely need to live somewhere for a
while so the unconverted drivers can get knocked into shape, existing
drivers that have been updated can be better tuned and bugs whacked out.

This replaces the tty flip buffers with kmalloc objects in rings. In the
normal situation for an IRQ driven serial port at typical speeds the
behaviour is pretty much the same, two buffers end up allocated and the
kernel cycles between them as before.

When there are delays or at high speed we now behave far better as the
buffer pool can grow a bit rather than lose characters. This also means
that we can operate at higher speeds reliably.

For drivers that receive characters in blocks (DMA based, USB and
especially virtualisation) the layer allows a lot of driver specific
code that works around the tty layer with private secondary queues to be
removed. The IBM folks need this sort of layer, the smart serial port
people do, the virtualisers do (because a virtualised tty typically
operates at infinite speed rather than emulating 9600 baud).

Finally many drivers had invalid and unsafe attempts to avoid buffer
overflows by directly invoking tty methods extracted out of the innards
of work queue structs. These are no longer needed and all go away. That
fixes various random hangs with serial ports on overflow.

The other change in here is to optimise the receive_room path that is
used by some callers. It turns out that only one ldisc uses receive room
except asa constant and it updates it far far less than the value is
read. We thus make it a variable not a function call.

I expect the code to contain bugs due to the size alone but I'll be
watching and squashing them and feeding out new patches as it goes.

Because the buffers now dynamically expand you should only run out of
buffering when the kernel runs out of memory for real.  That means a lot of
the horrible hacks high performance drivers used to do just aren't needed any
more.

Description:

tty_insert_flip_char is an old API and continues to work as before, as does
tty_flip_buffer_push() [this is why many drivers dont need modification].  It
does now also return the number of chars inserted

There are also

tty_buffer_request_room(tty, len)

which asks for a buffer block of the length requested and returns the space
found.  This improves efficiency with hardware that knows how much to
transfer.

and tty_insert_flip_string_flags(tty, str, flags, len)

to insert a string of characters and flags

For a smart interface the usual code is

    len = tty_request_buffer_room(tty, amount_hardware_says);
    tty_insert_flip_string(tty, buffer_from_card, len);

More description!

At the moment tty buffers are attached directly to the tty.  This is causing a
lot of the problems related to tty layer locking, also problems at high speed
and also with bursty data (such as occurs in virtualised environments)

I'm working on ripping out the flip buffers and replacing them with a pool of
dynamically allocated buffers.  This allows both for old style "byte I/O"
devices and also helps virtualisation and smart devices where large blocks of
data suddenely materialise and need storing.

So far so good.  Lots of drivers reference tty->flip.*.  Several of them also
call directly and unsafely into function pointers it provides.  This will all
break.  Most drivers can use tty_insert_flip_char which can be kept as an API
but others need more.

At the moment I've added the following interfaces, if people think more will
be needed now is a good time to say

 int tty_buffer_request_room(tty, size)

Try and ensure at least size bytes are available, returns actual room (may be
zero).  At the moment it just uses the flipbuf space but that will change.
Repeated calls without characters being added are not cumulative.  (ie if you
call it with 1, 1, 1, and then 4 you'll have four characters of space.  The
other functions will also try and grow buffers in future but this will be a
more efficient way when you know block sizes.

 int tty_insert_flip_char(tty, ch, flag)

As before insert a character if there is room.  Now returns 1 for success, 0
for failure.

 int tty_insert_flip_string(tty, str, len)

Insert a block of non error characters.  Returns the number inserted.

 int tty_prepare_flip_string(tty, strptr, len)

Adjust the buffer to allow len characters to be added.  Returns a buffer
pointer in strptr and the length available.  This allows for hardware that
needs to use functions like insl or mencpy_fromio.

973bd99375 [PATCH] s390: atomic primitives
Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com>

Fix the broken atomic_cmpxchg primitive.  Add atomic_sub_and_test,
atomic64_sub_return, atomic64_sub_and_test, atomic64_cmpxchg,
atomic64_add_unless and atomic64_inc_not_zero.  Replace old style
atomic_compare_and_swap by atomic_cmpxchg.  Shorten the whole header by
defining most primitives with the two inline functions atomic_add_return and
atomic_sub_return.

In addition this patch contains the s390 related fixes of Hugh's "mm: fill
arch atomic64 gaps" patch.
