This patch sets a default raid level on a volume that either does not support reading the geometry or reports an invalid geometry for whatever reason. We were always setting some values for heads and sectors but never set a raid level. This caused lots of problems on some buggy firmware. Please consider this for inclusion.

It branches around some necessary prom calls, which we would need to do even if we are mapped at the correct location already. So it doesn't work. The idea was that this sort of thing could be used for the eventual kexec implementation, but it is clear that this will need to be done differently. Signed-off-by: David S.

Hugh Dickins correctly points out that mincore() is actually _supposed_ to fail on an unmapped hole in the user address space, rather than return valid ("empty") information about the hole. This just simplifies the problem further (I had been misled by our previous confusing and complicated way of doing mincore()). Also, in the unlikely situation that we can't allocate a temporary kernel buffer, we should actually return EAGAIN, not ENOMEM, to keep the "unmapped hole" and "allocation failure" error cases separate. Finally, add a comment about our stupid historical lack of support for anonymous mappings. I'll fix that if somebody reminds me after 2.6.20 is out.

On architectures where the atomicity of the bit operations is handled by external means (ie a separate spinlock to protect concurrent accesses), just doing a direct assignment on the workqueue data field (as done by commit 4594bf15) can cause the assignment to be lost due to lack of serialization with the bitops on the same word. So we need to serialize the assignment with the locks on those architectures (notably older ARM chips, PA-RISC and sparc32). So rather than using an "unsigned long", let's use "atomic_long_t", which already has a safe assignment operation (atomic_long_set()) on such architectures. This requires that the atomic operations use the same atomicity locks as the bit operations do, but that is largely the case anyway. Sparc32 will probably need fixing. Architectures (including modern ARM with LL/SC) that implement sane atomic operations for SMP won't see any of this matter.

Doug Chapman noticed that mincore() will doa "copy_to_user()" of the result while holding the mmap semaphore for reading, which is a big no-no. While a recursive read-lock on a semaphore in the case of a page fault happens to work, we don't actually allow them due to deadlock schenarios with writers due to fairness issues. Doug and Marcel sent in a patch to fix it, but I decided to just rewrite the mess instead - not just fixing the locking problem, but making the code smaller and (imho) much easier to understand.

The UDMA66 VIA hardware has no controller side cable detect bits we can use. This patch minimally fixes the problem by reporting unknown in this case and using drive side detection. The old drivers/ide code does some additional tricks but those aren't appropriate now we are in -rc. Without this update UDMA66 via controllers run slowly. They don't fail so it's a borderline call whether this is -rc material or not. Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

struct srp_device.fmr_page_mask was unsigned long, which means that the top part of addresses above 4G was being chopped off on 32-bit architectures. Of course nothing good happens when data from SRP targets is DMAed to the wrong place. Fix this by changing fmr_page_mask to u64, to match the addresses actually used by IB devices.

The ib_dma_alloc_coherent() wrapper uses a u64* for the dma_handle parameter, unlike dma_alloc_coherent, which uses dma_addr_t*. This means that we need a temporary variable to handle the case when ib_dma_alloc_coherent() just falls through directly to dma_alloc_coherent() on architectures where sizeof u64 != sizeof dma_addr_t.

The dump tools expect that the saved prefix register points to the lowcore of the dump cpu. Since we set the prefix register to 0 during reipl/dump, we have to save the original prefix register. Before we start the dump program, we copy the original prefix register to the designated location in the lowcore.
