====================
be2net: patch set
Hi Dave, the following patch set reduces code duplication
in probe/pci-resume/eeh-resume and remove/pci-suspend/eeh-error and UE-error
detect/recovery paths. New helper routines have been introduced for this
purpose. Pls apply this set to the net-next tree. Thanks!
Patch 1 refactors the alloc/free code of adapter struct's fields into
a new set of helper routines -- be_drv_init/cleanup().
Patch 2 gets rid of the be_get_initial_config() routine as be_get_config()
is the place holder for related code.
Patch 3 introduces a new helper routine be_func_init() to execute the
initialization code used in probe/pci-resume/eeh-resume to remove
code duplication.
Patch 4 introduces a wrapper for scheduling/canceling error detection
task on similar lines to the be_worker task.
Patch 5 refactors UE error detection and recovery code on similar lines
to EEH code. Cleaning up resources is done in the error detection routine
followed by error recovery.
Patch 6 gets rid of the lancer_test_and_set_rdy_state() routine as the
same code now available in be_func_init().
Patch 7 creates a new helper routine be_resume() for all the common code
in be_probe(), be_pci_resume() and be_eeh_resume(), to reduce code duplication.
Patch 8 creates a new helper routine be_cleanup() for all the common
cleanup code duplicated in the suspend/EEH err detection paths.
Patch 9 moves be_func_init() inside be_setup() as everytime be_setup()
is called, the driver will have to wait for the function/FW to be be
initialized.

- Do not setup WRB-header before frags are setup, which is unncessary if

The WRB header is setup by wrb_fill_hdr() routine. This routine currently
gets some of the WRB params as args and figures out rest of the WRB params
by looking at various fields in skb (like gso, checksum, vlan-tag etc).
All these params could instead be retrieved from the skb into a structure
and passed to this routine. This separates wrb_fill_hdr() to only provide
chip-specific code to fill the WRB. This also makes it simple to support
chips with different WRB formats.

====================
Indirect phy access for mv88e6171
These two patches allow the mv88e6171 driver to access the port phys
using indirect addressing. Depending on pin strapping, the switch
either uses a single address on the host MDIO bus, requiring the port
phys are accessed indirectly, or the switch uses a number of addresses
on the host bus and the phys can be directly accessed.
The 370RD, the first supported platform to use the 6171 uses multiple
addresses, so this indirect mode was not required. However the
WRT1900AC has the switch configured to use a single address, and so
indirect access is needed.
The mv88e6352 already has all the needed code. Refactor it into the
shared mv88e6xxx and then use it in the mv88e6171 driver.

scripts/gdb: disable pagination while printing from breakpoint handler
While reporting the (refreshed) list of modules on automatic updates we
may hit the page boundary of the output console and cause a stop if
pagination is enabled. However, gdb does not accept user input while
running over the breakpoint handler. So we get stuck, and the user is
forced to interrupt gdb.
Resolve this by disabling pagination during automatic symbol updates. We
restore the user's configuration once done.

I tried to use these scripts in an ubuntu 14.04 host (gdb 7.7 compiled
against python 3.3) but there were several errors.
I believe this patch fixes these issues so that the commands now work (I
tested lx-symbols, lx-dmesg, lx-lsmod).
Main issues that needed to be resolved:
* In python 2 iterators have a "next()" method. In python 3 it is
__next__() instead (so let's just add both).
* In older python versions there was an implicit conversion
in object.__format__() (used when an object is in string.format())
where it was converting the object to str first and then
calling str's __format__(). This has now been removed so
we must explicitly convert to str the objects for which
we need to keep this behavior.
* In dmesg.py: in python 3 log_buf is now a "memoryview" object
which needs to be converted to a string in order to use string
methods like "splitlines()". Luckily memoryview exists in
python 2.7.6 as well, so we can convert log_buf to memoryview
and use the same code in both python 2 and python 3.
This version of the patch has now been tested with gdb 7.7 and both python
3.4 and python 2.7.6 (I think asking for at least python 2.7.6 is a
reasonable requirement instead of complicating the code with version
checks etc).

This is probably the most useful helper when debugging kernel modules:
lx-symbols first reloads vmlinux. Then it searches recursively for *.ko
files in the specified paths and the current directory. Finally it walks
the kernel's module list, issuing the necessary add-symbol-file command
for each loaded module so that gdb knows which module symbol corresponds
to which address. It also looks up variable sections (bss, data, rodata)
and appends their address to the add-symbole-file command line. This
allows to access global module variables just like any other variable.
