pcmcia: patch to fix pccard_store_cis

[Pete Zaitcev]

The ``ret'' obviously cannot be zero here, because it's initialized to the
write count and not zero.

Thanks -- Linus was faster, though, and already applied his patch to the
linux-2.6 git tree. Regarding the other issue seen in RH bug# 207910, I'll
try to take a look at it soon.

BTW: I had the same problem, reported here: 

https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/pcmciautils/+bug/52510

and here: 

http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-pcmcia/2006-August/003893.html

and my modem did work without IRQ problems after I got rid of .cis and
started (obsolete) cardmgr. Just as a data point more...

Does it work again (after re-copying the cis file to /lib/firmware) when
you use this patch?

Thanks,

Will try... I have upgraded to ubuntu edgy yesterday, where I think some
thing changed (it's a 2.16.17-based kernel). I had no time to test it
more thoroughly, but the change is that now (standard edgy kernel): 
- only the first function is recognized
- if i start cardmgr, without the .cis, the two function are recognized
but now I *do* have the irq problem, and the modem is all-time-busy.

If tomorrow my little one sleeps a bit more, I will try to test your
patch. I hope I'll find how to apply it to that kernel, I do not want to
change it (for the first time my vaio suspend to ram and my  wifi works
without ndiswrapper!).

Mr Dominik, all,

                I tried your patch on top of the kernel 2.6.17.13 that
came with ubuntu
        edgy (and had sufficient trouble with it, I do not know if I'll be able
        to try with a recent kernel.). This message is in copy to akpm which
        asked me a report on the same problem.

        I applied your patch and this one:
        http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/10/1/179

        but the kernel continues to ignore the second function of my card.
        Moreover, now the modem does not work even with the dear old cardmgr:

        Mr Morton, do you still think I should open a bug in bugzilla? Even if I
        have not tested a newer kernel? It seems to me that nothing has changed
        over there, and this _is_ a regression (from 2.6.13, even).

It doesn't sound like these problems will be fixed in the short term so
yes, please let's get these into bugzilla so at least they don't get
forgotten about and we have contact information filed away against
particular problems.  One record per bug, please.

I do have a debugging patch here which will give us better info about the
above IRQ-handler conflict.  I'll probably push that into 2.6.19 - we seem
to be getting a few of these lately.

Well it sounds like fixing these bugs is a long-term project.  So it would
be fine if you were to wait until Ubuntu have a 2.6.19-based kernel
available.

But otoh I don't think Ubuntu release bleeding-edge kernel packages, so
that may be quite some time in the future.  So if you're able to work out
how to build and install a kernel.org kernel then that would help things
along a bit.

I tried again, applying your patch after applying Linus' one (commit 
933cd864a5c95c296844493b65d868b7cf7548aa in Linus git). Nothing. Only
the first function of the card is discovered. 

I was trying to read the code, and I cannot find where the code in
socket_sysfs.c is supposed to loop over the various functions of the
card. Maybe there could be some problem there?

I would really like to help on this. My modem is dead from 1.6.13...

All right. Tomorrow I will try to find the time to file a bug.

But wait, I do not think this is really a relevant bug. It happens only
if I tart cardmgr, which is supposed it's not needed for newer kernels.
The problem here (as I stated in another mail in this thread) is that it
seems that the new pccardctl infrastructure miss the second function of
my card, registering and initialiazng just the first one.

Uf. This will be at least six month. I really need my modem before than
that :-). I have an old external Robotics one, but well, it's a bit, you
know, big... I will try a newer kernel, I think that my problem is
simply that in ubuntu kernel all is modular, and make install do not
generate a initrd by default.

Will try. If anyone can suggest a recipe before I test zillions of
reboots, it will be very welcome.

Applied, with just a bit of offset on 2.6.17.13. Compiling now. I'll be
back to you as soon as possible.
