New ipr adapters support a new device queueing model in the adapter firmware. The queueing model is the NACA queueing model, but it does not mean use of NACA is required. The new model removes some of the adapter firmware queue state that made handling QERR=0 almost impossible. The queueing model on older adapters included the concept of a queue frozen state, which would freeze the response queue in the adapter when a check condition occurred, requiring a a primitive to resume the queue. The new queueing model removes this complexity. Signed-off-by: Brian King <brking@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>

Some ipr adapters will automatically create single device RAID 0 arrays for all unconfigured RAID capable devices found at adapter initialization time. This patch adds a module parameter to disable this behavior. Signed-off-by: Brian King <brking@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>

Some IPR RAID adapter will automatically create single device RAID arrays for all attached devices when the card is initialized. Setting the RUNTIME_RESET doorbell bit will prevent this from occurring, since we only want this behavior the first time the card is initialized and not each time the card happens to get reset.

If an ipr adapter repeatedly fails its initialization the ipr driver will take the adapter offline and never talk to it again. This provides a method for the user to manually try the initialization again through sysfs. Signed-off-by: Brian King <brking@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>

If the write buffer command that is issued to the ipr adapter to update its microcode fails for some reason, the DMA buffer will never get unmapped. Move the pci_map/unmap out of the IOA reset job so that the buffer is always clearly mapped and unmapped.

IPR RAID arrays show up on a virtual scsi bus, with a scsi bus number of 255, which is generated by the adapter microcode. For the initial scan of the host, we manually scan this bus since it does not obey SAM in regards to sparse LUNs and the disk array devices do not have a consistent product id to use scsi core's blacklist. If /proc/scsi/scsi or sysfs is used to delete one of these devices, the device will not be able to get added back by rescanning the host since scsi core will see ipr's max_channel as 4, rather than 255. Update max_channel after the initial scan so that ipr raid arrays can get re-added if they get deleted.

recent kernels call the eh_ methods without the host lock held. megaraid_sas doesn't need it but drops it before calling a sleeping routine and reqcquires it afterwards.

scsi_send_eh_cmnd currently uses a semaphore and an overload of eh_timer to either get a completion for a command for a timeout.

This patch started life as a response to fedora specific ide subsystem changes that made error handling of my ATAPI tape drive fail; the specifics are in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=160868 The insertion of the statement rq->errors = err; near the end of ide_end_drive_cmd() in drivers/ide/ide-io.c means that rq->errors does not contain what it needs to in idescsi_end_request() in drivers/scsi/ide-scsi.c anymore. Recent mainline kernels now also have this change. Signed-off-by: Willem Riede <wrlk@riede.org> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>

There's an oops that sometimes shows up with SCSI transport classes in sysfs_hash_and_remove. The problem is that now, because of the class to device and vice versa symlinks, all classes have to be removed from visibility *before* the device is removed from visibility. The transport class trigger points violate this, so bring them back into conformance. Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>

my patch "x86: initialise tss->io_bitmap_owner to something" (commit ID d5cd4aad) introduced a problem with a program (DOSEMU) that called ioperm after already doing some port i/o. The problem is that a process switch return causes tss->io_bitmap_base to be set to IO_BITMAP_OFFSET so that the fault (that *really* sets the io bitmap) never triggers. This fixes that regression.

Some visually impaired people use hardware devices which directly read the vga screen. When newt for instance asks to hide the cursor for better visual aspect, the kernel puts the vga cursor out of the screen, so that the cursor position can't be read by the hardware device. This is a great loss for such people. Here is a patch which uses the same technique as CUR_NONE for hiding the cursor while still moving it. Mario, you should apply it to the speakup kernel for access floppies asap. I'll submit a 2.4 patch too. Signed-off-by: samuel.thibault@ens-lyon.org Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

Adds a phy_mask field to struct mii_bus and uses it. This field indicates each phy address to be ignored when probing the mdio bus. This support is needed for the fs_enet and ibm_emac drivers to be converted to the generic phy layer among other drivers. Many systems lock up on probing certain phy addresses or probing doesn't return 0xffff when nothing is found at the address. A new driver I'm working on also makes use of this mask.
