According to sis5513, this should be 0x8000. This caused UDMA100 device to fail on pata_sis till it downgrades to UDMA66 while it works fine on sis5513 at UDMA100. Reported by Adam Blech.

| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When PCIX_IRQ_WOC is used, sil24 has an inherent race condition between clearing IRQ pending and reading IRQ status. If IRQ pending is cleared after reading IRQ status, there's possibility of lost IRQ. If IRQ pending is cleared before reading IRQ status, spurious IRQs will occur. sata_sil24 till now cleared IRQ pending after reading IRQ status thus losing IRQs on machines where PCIX_IRQ_WOC was used. Reverse the order and ignore spurious IRQs if PCIX_IRQ_WOC. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

So when ACPI checks the status code of callback function, it will report the unknown exception code. So the status code in ACPI is used instead of the generic error code in the ACPI callback function of hpet_resources.

The problem is that the first test it does is a cable integrity test for wide transfers and if this fails, it turns the wide bit off. The problem is that the next set of tests it does turns wide back on again, with the result that it runs through the entirety of DV with a known bad setting and then hangs the system. The attached patch fixes the problem by physically nailing the wide setting to what it deduces it should be for the whole of Domain Validation.

I also have written an isolated test case, see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=301791#c15.

It easily kills the performances of the 8168. David Gundersen has noticed that it is enough to wait for the completion of the DMA transfer (NPQ bit is cleared) before writing the TxPoll register again. The extra IO traffic added by the proposed workaround could be minimalized but it is not a high-priority task.

However the process of determining whether more read requests are pending requires locking the stripe (to block add_stripe_bio from updating dev->toead). ops_complete_biofill can run in tasklet context, so rather than upgrading all the stripe locks from spin_lock to spin_lock_bh this patch just unconditionally reschedules handle_stripe after completing the read request. 2/ ops_complete_biofill needlessly qualified processing R5_Wantfill with dev->toread. The result being that the 'biofill' pending bit is cleared before handling the pending read-completions on dev->read. R5_Wantfill can be unconditionally handled because the 'biofill' pending bit prevents new R5_Wantfill requests from being seen by ops_run_biofill and ops_complete_biofill.

We also need to handle prefetch marking properly for S/G segments, or else the HCA may end up processing S/G segments that are not fully written and end up sending the wrong data. This can actually cause data corruption in practice, especially on systems with relatively slow CPUs (where the HCA is more likely to prefetch while the CPU is in the middle of writing a work request into memory). We write S/G segments in reverse order into the WQE, in order to guarantee that the first dword of all cachelines containing S/G segments is written last (overwriting the headroom invalidation pattern). The entire cacheline will thus contain valid data when the invalidation pattern is overwritten.

This was actually resolving the problem on the VAIO but was just a stupid workaround, which was not tackling the root cause: the assignement of lower idle C-States in the ACPI processor_idle code. The cpuidle patches, which utilize the dynamic tick feature and go faster into deeper C-states exposed the problem again. The correct solution is the previous patch, which prevents lower C-states across the suspend/resume. Remove the enforcement code, including the conditional broadcast timer arming, which helped to pamper over the real problem for quite a time. The oneshot broadcast flag for the cpu, which runs the resume code can never be set at the time when this code is executed. It only gets set, when the CPU is entering a lower idle C-State.

It took me some time to realize that especially the VAIO BIOSes (both Andrews jinxed UP and my elfstruck SMP one) show this effect. I'm quite sure that other bug reports against suspend/resume about turning the system into a brick have the same root cause. After fishing in the dark for quite some time, I realized that removing the ACPI processor module before suspend (this removes the lower C-state functionality) made the problem disappear. Interestingly enough the propability of having a bricked box is influenced by various factors (interrupts, size of the ram image, ...). Even adding a bunch of printks in the wrong places made the problem go away. The previous periodic tick implementation simply pampered over the problem, which explains why the dyntick / clockevents changes made this more prominent. We avoid complex functionality during the boot process and we have to do the same during suspend/resume. It is a similar scenario and equaly fragile. Add suspend / resume functions to the ACPI processor code and disable the lower idle C-states across suspend/resume. Fall back to the default idle implementation (halt) instead.
