Commit 05fe478d introduced some @wbc->nr_to_write breakage. It made the following changes: 1. Decrement wbc->nr_to_write instead of nr_to_write 2. Decrement wbc->nr_to_write _only_ if wbc->sync_mode == WB_SYNC_NONE 3. If synced nr_to_write pages, stop only if if wbc->sync_mode == WB_SYNC_NONE, otherwise keep going. However, according to the commit message, the intention was to only make change 3. Change 1 is a bug. Change 2 does not seem to be necessary, and it breaks UBIFS expectations, so if needed, it should be done separately later. And change 2 does not seem to be documented in the commit message. This patch does the following: 1. Undo changes 1 and 2 2. Add a comment explaining change 3 (it very useful to have comments in _code_, not only in the commit).

This builds upon eeabac73 ("sparc64: Validate kernel generated fault addresses on sparc64.") Upon further consideration, we actually should never see any fault addresses for 32-bit tasks with the upper 32-bits set. If it does every happen, by definition it's a bug. Whatever context created that fault would only have that fault satisfied if we used the full 64-bit address. If we truncate it, we'll always fault the wrong address and we'll always loop faulting forever. So catch such conditions and mark them as errors always. Log the error and fail the fault.

This patch adds a few device ID's. It also removes an ID that was used in an internal engineering version of a device and will never see commercial light. Even if this ID will be 'recycled' in the future, which is very unlikely, we don't know what kind of device will be behind it. Therefore it's safer to remove it.

In order to handle all of the cases of address calculation overflow properly, we run sparc 32-bit processes in "address masking" mode when running on a 64-bit kernel. Address masking mode zeros out the top 32-bits of the address calculated for every load and store instruction. However, when we're in privileged mode we have to run with that address masking mode disabled even when accessing userspace from the kernel. To "simulate" the address masking mode we clear the top-bits by hand for 32-bit processes in the fault handler. It is the responsibility of code in the compat layer to properly zero extend addresses used to access userspace. If this isn't followed properly we can get into a fault loop. Say that the user address is 0xf0000000 but for whatever reason the kernel code sign extends this to 64-bit, and then the kernel tries to access the result. In such a case we'll fault on address 0xfffffffff0000000 but the fault handler will process that fault as if it were to address 0xf0000000. We'll loop faulting forever because the fault never gets satisfied. So add a check specifically for this case, when the kernel is faulting on a user address access and the addresses don't match up. This code path is sufficiently slow path, and this bug is sufficiently painful to diagnose, that this kind of bug check is warranted. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

When we're idling in NOHZ mode, timer interrupts are not running. Evidence of processing timer interrupts is what the NMI watchdog uses to determine if the CPU is stuck. On Niagara, we'll yield the cpu. This will make the cpu, at worst, hang out in the hypervisor until an interrupt arrives. This will prevent the NMI watchdog timer from firing. However on non-Niagara we just loop executing instructions which will cause the NMI watchdog to keep firing. It won't see timer interrupts happening so it will think the cpu is stuck. Fix this by touching the NMI watchdog in the cpu idle loop on non-Niagara machines. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

3Gbps is often much more prone to transmission failures. It's usually okay to let EH handle speed down after transmission failures but some WD My Book drives completely shutdown after certain transmission failures and after it only power cycling can revive them. Combined with the fact that external drives often end up with cable assembly which is longer than usual and more likely to have intervening gender, this makes these drives very likely to shutdown under certain configurations virtually rendering them unusable. This patch implements HOARKGE_1_5_GBPS and applies it to WD My Book such that 1.5Gbps is forced once the device is identified. Please take a look at the following bz for related reports. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9913Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>

Let -EAGAIN from EH device handling routines trigger EH retry without consuming its tries count. This will be used to implement link SPD horkage which requires hardreset to adjust SPD without affecting other EH decisions. As it bypasses the forward progress guarantee provided by the tries count, the requester is responsible for ensuring forward progress.

When link is flaky at high speed, it isn't uncommon for a device to repeatedly fail probing sequence early after successfully negotiating high link speed. This often leads to consecutive hotplug events without successful probing. This patch improves libata EH such that it remembers probing trials and if there have been more than two unsuccessful trials in the past 60 seconds, slows down link speed to 1.5Gbps. As link speed negotiation is the duty of the PHY layer proper, the goal of this fallback mechanism is to provide the last resort when everything else fails, which unfortunately happens not too infrequently, so no fancy 6->3->1.5 speeding down or highest successful transmission speed seen kind of logics (yet).

dev->ering used to be cleared together with the rest of ata_device in ata_dev_init() which is called whenever a probing event occurs. dev->ering is about to be used to track probing failures so it needs to remain persistent over multiple porbing events. This patch achieves this by doing the following. * Instead of CLEAR_OFFSET, define CLEAR_BEGIN and CLEAR_END and only clear between BEGIN and END. ering is moved after END. The split of persistent area is to allow hotter items remain at the head. * ering is explicitly cleared on ata_dev_disable() and when device attach succeeds. So, ering is persistent throug a device's life time (unless explicitly cleared of course) and also through periods inbetween disablement of an attached device and successful detection of the next one.

The dev->pio_mode > XFER_PIO_0 test is there to avoid unnecessary speed down warning messages but it accidentally disabled SATA link spd down during configuration phase after reset where PIO mode is always zero. This patch fixes the problem by moving the test where it belongs. This makes libata probing sequence behave better when the connection is flaky at higher link speeds which isn't too uncommon for eSATA devices.
