The original code would incorrectly hardcode ELS timeout values rather than using the traditional '2 * r_a_tov' value. In some cases, the hardcoded values would be larger than the mailbox-command-timeout and result in a needless BIG_HAMMER (ISP reset), the typical recovery mechanism employed in such cases. The second defect in the original code was in the assignment of the default 'ha->r_a_tov' to twice the traditional value. Correct this by setting the value to 10 seconds. Signed-off-by:

For recent ISPs, software must detect OVERRUN conditions by checking the SS_RESIDUAL_OVER bit during CS_COMPLETE handling. Update the driver to perform this check, which is consistent with what earlier firmwares did by explicitly cracking open the FCP_RSP statuses and returning an CS_DATA_OVERRUN. Signed-off-by:

There's no point in hitting the RISC with what will most assuredly be an unsucessful reset of the RISC hardware if the initial stop-firmware mailbox command fails with a time-out status. Instead, to avoid what could amount to a lengthy stop-firmware/detect-failure/reset-risc loop, continue with driver unloading and discard the stop-firmware requirement. Signed-off-by:

sg driver rounds up the length in struct scatterlist to be a multiple of 512 in some conditions. So LLDs can't use the data length in a sg list to calculate residual. Instead, the length in struct scsi_cmnd should be used. [Geert: the variable buflen already contains scsi_bufflen(cmd)] Signed-off-by:

The recent patch named: [SCSI] gdth: !use_sg cleanup and use of scsi accessors has done a bad job in handling internal commands issued by gdth_execute(). Internal commands are issued with device gdth_cmd_str ready made directly to the card, without any mapping or translations of scsi commands. So here I added a gdth_cmd_str pointer to the gdth_cmndinfo private structure which is then copied directly to host. following this patch is a cleanup that removes the home cooked accessors and reverts them to regular scsi_cmnd accessors. Since they are not used anymore. After review maybe the 2 patches should be squashed together. FIXME: There is still a problem with gdth_get_info(). as reported there is a WARN_ON trigerd in dma_free_coherent() when doing: $ cat /proc/sys/gdth/0 Signed-off-by:

gdth_exit would first remove all cards then stop the timer and would not sync with the timer function. This caused a crash in gdth_timer() when module was unloaded. So del_timer_sync the timer before we delete the cards. also the reboot notifier function would crash. So clean that up and fix the crashes. Signed-off-by:

This is a particularly nasty bug. The problem is that if any internal ascb times out, currently we free it even though it's pending at the sequencer. This results in the sequencer getting terminally confused and the error message: BUG:sequencer:dl:no ascb Being returned when it comes back. The way to fix this is to manage freeing the ascb from the tasklet completion routine, so that we only free it when the sequencer actually returns it. The code is also altered to use on stack completions and transfer variables. Signed-off-by: -

Once the phy reset is plumbed in properly, SATA error handling fails nastily because we change the port attached_sas_address using the WWN field of the IDENTIFY message. This is a nice thing to do in theory, but it really destroys hotplug because any event on the port causes an automatic mismatch between the sas_address the phy just picked up and the one we propagate into the port. However ugly they are, we have to stick with the sas addresses made up by the phys and expanders. Also does a few cosmetic changes to the way port printing is done to make it clearer how a port is formed. Signed-off-by: -

Currently aic94xx has no exported I_T_nexus_reset function. This is a bit of a huge problem, since sas_ata relies on this function to perform an ATA phy reset and also it means that if abort fails, we really have no bigger hammer to hit everything with. Plumb in the I_T_nexus_reset by quiescing the sequencer, sending the correct phy reset (link for ATA and hard for SAS) and then carefully resuming the sequencer again. Signed-off-by: -

This is needed by the to be added I_T reset function in aic94xx. It needs to know the local phy so it can send a link or hard reset along the path. Signed-off-by: -

Oleg Nesterov and others have pointed out that on some architectures, the traditional sequence of set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE); if (CONDITION) return; schedule(); is racy wrt another CPU doing CONDITION = 1; wake_up_process(p); because while set_current_state() has a memory barrier separating setting of the TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE state from reading of the CONDITION variable, there is no such memory barrier on the wakeup side. Now, wake_up_process() does actually take a spinlock before it reads and sets the task state on the waking side, and on x86 (and many other architectures) that spinlock is in fact equivalent to a memory barrier, but that is not generally guaranteed. The write that sets CONDITION could move into the critical region protected by the runqueue spinlock. However, adding a smp_wmb() to before the spinlock should now order the writing of CONDITION wrt the lock itself, which in turn is ordered wrt the accesses within the spinlock (which includes the reading of the old state). This should thus close the race (which probably has never been seen in practice, but since smp_wmb() is a no-op on x86, it's not like this will make anything worse either on the most common architecture where the spinlock already gave the required protection).

(sorry for being offtpoic, but while experts are here...) A "typical" implementation of atomic_add_unless() can return 0 immediately after the first atomic_read() (before doing cmpxchg). In that case it doesn't provide any barrier semantics. See include/asm-ia64/atomic.h as an example. We should either change the implementation, or fix the docs. Signed-off-by:

If free_area_init_core is only used by setup_usemap then annotate free_area_init_core with a matching annotation. The warning is covers this stack of functions in mm/page_alloc.c: alloc_bootmem_node must be marked __init. alloc_bootmem_node is used by setup_usemap, if !SPARSEMEM. (usemap_size is only used by setup_usemap, if !SPARSEMEM.) setup_usemap is only used by free_area_init_core. free_area_init_core is only used by free_area_init_node. free_area_init_node is used by: arch/alpha/mm/numa.c: __init paging_init() arch/arm/mm/init.c: __init bootmem_init_node() arch/avr32/mm/init.c: __init paging_init() arch/cris/arch-v10/mm/init.c: __init paging_init() arch/cris/arch-v32/mm/init.c: __init paging_init() arch/m32r/mm/discontig.c: __init zone_sizes_init() arch/m32r/mm/init.c: __init zone_sizes_init() arch/m68k/mm/motorola.c: __init paging_init() arch/m68k/mm/sun3mmu.c: __init paging_init() arch/mips/sgi-ip27/ip27-memory.c: __init paging_init() arch/parisc/mm/init.c: __init paging_init() arch/sparc/mm/srmmu.c: __init srmmu_paging_init() arch/sparc/mm/sun4c.c: __init sun4c_paging_init() arch/sparc64/mm/init.c: __init paging_init() mm/page_alloc.c: __init free_area_init_nodes() mm/page_alloc.c: __init free_area_init() and mm/memory_hotplug.c: hotadd_new_pgdat() hotadd_new_pgdat can not be an __init function, but: It is compiled for MEMORY_HOTPLUG configurations only MEMORY_HOTPLUG depends on SPARSEMEM || X86_64_ACPI_NUMA X86_64_ACPI_NUMA depends on X86_64 ARCH_FLATMEM_ENABLE depends on X86_32 ARCH_DISCONTIGMEM_ENABLE depends on X86_32 So X86_64_ACPI_NUMA implies SPARSEMEM, right?

Document huge memory/cache overhead of memory controller in Kconfig I was a little surprised that 2.6.25-rc* increased struct page for the memory controller. At least on many x86-64 machines it will not fit into a single cache line now anymore and also costs considerable amounts of RAM. At earlier review I remembered asking for a external data structure for this. It's also quite unobvious that a innocent looking Kconfig option with a single line Kconfig description has such a negative effect. This patch attempts to document these disadvantages at least so that users configuring their kernel can make a informed decision. Signed-off-by:

When running "make htmldocs" I'm seeing some non-fatal perl errors caused by trying to parse the callback function definitions in blk-core.c. The errors are "Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.)..." in combination with: Warning(linux-2.6.25-rc2/block/blk-core.c:1877): No description found for parameter '' The function pointers are defined without a * i.e. int (drv_callback)(struct request *) The compiler is happy with them, but kernel-doc isn't. This patch teaches create_parameterlist in kernel-doc to parse this type of function pointer definition, but is it the right way to fix the problem ? The problem only seems to occur in blk-core.c. However with the patch applied, kernel-doc finds the correct parameter description for the callback in blk_end_request_callback, which is doesn't normally. I thought it would be a bit odd to change to code to use the more normal form of function pointers just to get the documentation to work, so I fixed kernel-doc instead - even though this is teaching it to understand code that might go away (The comment for blk_end_request_callback says that it should not be used and will removed at some point).

Not all architectures implement futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic(). The default implementation returns -ENOSYS, which is currently not handled inside of the futex guts. Futex PI calls and robust list exits with a held futex result in an endless loop in the futex code on architectures which have no support. Fixing up every place where futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() is called would add a fair amount of extra if/else constructs to the already complex code. It is also not possible to disable the robust feature before user space tries to register robust lists. Compile time disabling is not a good idea either, as there are already architectures with runtime detection of futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic support. Detect the functionality at runtime instead by calling cmpxchg_futex_value_locked() with a NULL pointer from the futex initialization code. This is guaranteed to fail, but the call of futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() happens with pagefaults disabled. On architectures, which use the asm-generic implementation or have a runtime CPU feature detection, a -ENOSYS return value disables the PI/robust features. On architectures with a working implementation the call returns -EFAULT and the PI/robust features are enabled. The relevant syscalls return -ENOSYS and the robust list exit code is blocked, when the detection fails.
