* [SCSI] fix check of PQ and PDT bits for WLUNsJames Bottomley2008-08-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | For IBM z series certain LUNs can no longer be accessed. This is because kernel version 2.6.19 a check was introduced not to create a generic SCSI device for devices that return PQ=1 and PDT=0x1f. For WLUNs (see SAM-3, p. 41ff) generic SCSI devices should be created unconditionally without looking at the PQ bit, so add a check for WLUNs in with this test.

* [SCSI] zfcp: Remove duplicated unlikely() macros.Hirofumi Nakagawa2008-08-29
| | | | | | | | | | Some drivers have duplicated unlikely() macros. IS_ERR() already has unlikely() in itself.

* [SCSI] zfcp: Simplify ccw notify handlerChristof Schmitt2008-08-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | The notify handler does not change the list of adapters, it only triggers erp actions to open or shutdown the adapter. We don't need to hold the config semaphore and wait for the erp to complete. This is a prerequisite for a fix in the s390 common i/o code.

| * | [ARM] Skip memory holes in FLATMEM when reading /proc/pagetypeinfoMel Gorman2008-08-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Ordinarily, memory holes in flatmem still have a valid memmap and is safe to use. However, an architecture (ARM) frees up the memmap backing memory holes on the assumption it is never used. /proc/pagetypeinfo reads the whole range of pages in a zone believing that the memmap is valid and that pfn_valid will return false if it is not. On ARM, freeing the memmap breaks the page->zone linkages even though pfn_valid() returns true and the kernel can oops shortly afterwards due to accessing a bogus struct zone *. This patch lets architectures say when FLATMEM can have holes in the memmap. Rather than an expensive check for valid memory, /proc/pagetypeinfo will confirm that the page linkages are still valid by checking page->zone is still the expected zone. The lookup of page_zone is safe as there is a limited range of memory that is accessed when calling page_zone. Even if page_zone happens to return the correct zone, the impact is that the counters in /proc/pagetypeinfo are slightly off but fragmentation monitoring is unlikely to be relevant on an embedded system.

In our testing, we frequently load and unload the iwlagn driver (>50 times). Then the MAX_STACK_TRACE_ENTRIES is reached (expected behaviour?). The error message with the call trace is as below. BUG: MAX_STACK_TRACE_ENTRIES too low! turning off the locking correctness validator.

This makes the list_del_rcu() in zap_class() oops later when the module is unloaded. This patch fixes the problem by assigning entry->class after save_trace() returns success.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix bad contention counting in /proc/lock_stat. /proc/lockstat tries to gather per-ip contention statistics per-lock. This was failing due to a garbage per-ip index selector being used. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix rounding error in /proc/lock_stat numerical output. On occasion the two digit fractional part contains the three digit value '100'. This is due to a bug in the rounding algorithm which pushes values in the range '95..99' to '100' rather than to '00' + an increment to the integer part. For example, - 123456.100 old display + 123457.00 new display Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
