* [SCSI] Add Promise SuperTrak driverJeff Garzik2006-09-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add Promise SuperTrak 'stex' driver, supporting SuperTrak EX8350/8300/16350/16300 controllers. The controller's firmware accepts SCSI commands, handing them to the underlying RAID or JBOD disks. The driver consisted of the following cleanups and fixes, beyond its initial submission: Ed Lin: stex: cleanup and minor fixes stex: add new device ids stex: update internal copy code path stex: add hard reset function stex: adjust command timeout in slave_config routine stex: use more efficient method for unload/shutdown flush Jeff Garzik: [SCSI] Add Promise SuperTrak 'shasta' driver. Rename drivers/scsi/shasta.c to stex.c ("SuperTrak EX"). [SCSI] stex: update with community comments from 'Promise SuperTrak' thread [SCSI] stex: Fix warning, trim trailing whitespace. [SCSI] stex: remove last remnants of "shasta" project code name [SCSI] stex: removed 6-byte command emulation [SCSI] stex: minor cleanups [SCSI] stex: minor fixes: irq flag, error return value [SCSI] stex: use dma_alloc_coherent() Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>
* [SCSI] Wrong size information for devices with disabled read accessHannes Reinecke2006-09-02

* [SCSI] libiscsi: don't call into lld to cleanup taskMike Christie2006-09-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | In the normal IO path we should not be calling back into the LLD since the LLD will have cleaned up the task before or after calling complete pdu.

* [SCSI] iscsi_tcp: fix partial digest recvMike Christie2006-09-02
| | | | | | | | | | When a digest is spread across two network buffers, we currently ignore this and try to check the digest with the partial buffer. Or course this fails.

* [SCSI] iscsi_tcp: update header size during reloginMike Christie2006-09-02

* [SCSI] iscsi_tcp: fix header resendMike Christie2006-09-02
| | | | | | | | | This patch built over the last ones fixes a bug in the partial header resend code, where we add on another 4 bytes to the send length on the resend.

* [SCSI] scsi_tcp: rm data rx and tx tfmsMike Christie2006-09-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | We currently allocated seperate tfms for data and header digests. There is no reason for this since we can never calculate a rx header and digest at the same time. Same for sends. So this patch removes the data tfms and has the send and recv sides use the rx_tfm or tx_tfm. I also made the connection creation code preallocate the tfms because I thought I hit a bug where I changed the digests settings during a relogin but could not allocate the tfm and then we just failed.

* [SCSI] iscsi_tcp: fix padding, data digests, and IO at weird offsetsMike Christie2006-09-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | iscsi_tcp calculates padding by using the expected transfer length. This has the problem where if we have immediate data = no and initial R2T = yes, and the transfer length ended up needing padding then we send: 1. header 2. padding which should have gone after data 3. data Besides this bug, we also assume the target will always ask for nice transfer lengths and the first burst length will always be a nice value. As far as I can tell form the RFC this is not a requirement. It would be silly to do this, but if someone did it we will end doing bad things. Finally the last bug in that bit of code is in our handling of the recalculation of data digests when we do not send a whole iscsi_buf in one try. The bug here is that we call crypto_digest_final on a iscsi_sendpage error, then when we send the rest of the iscsi_buf, we doiscsi_data_digest_init and this causes the previous data digest to be lost. And to make matters worse, some of these bugs are replicated over and over and over again for immediate data, solicited data and unsolicited data. So the attached patch made over the iscsi git tree (see kernel.org/git for details) which I updated today to include the patches I said I merged, consolidates the sending of data, padding and digests and calculation of data digests and fixes the above bugs.

* [SCSI] attempt to complete r2t with data len greater than max burstMike Christie2006-09-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | A couple targets like string bean and MDS, send r2ts with a data len greater than the max burst we agreed to. We were being strict in our enforcing of the iscsi rfc in that code path, but there is no driver limitation that prevents us from fullfilling the request. To allow those targets to work we will ignore the max_burst length and send as much data as the target asks for assuming it has consciously decided to override its max burst length.

* [SCSI] add refcouting around ctask usage in main IO patchMike Christie2006-09-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is possible that a ctask could be completing and getting cleaned up at the same time, we are finishing up the last data transfer. This could then result in the data transfer code using stale or invalid values. This patch adds a refcount to the ctask. When the count goes to zero then we know the transmit thread and recv thread or softirq are not touching it and we can safely release it. The eh should not need to grab a reference because it only cleans up a task if it has both the xmit mutex and recv lock (or recv side suspended).

* [SCSI] libiscsi, iscsi_tcp, iscsi_iser: check that burst lengths are valid.Mike Christie2006-09-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | iSCSI RFC states that the first burst length must be smaller than the max burst length. We currently assume targets will be good, but that may not be the case, so this patch adds a check. This patch also moves the unsol data out offset to the lib so the LLDs do not have to track it.

* [SCSI] SCSI: sanitize INQUIRY stringsAlan Stern2006-09-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Sanitize the Vendor, Product, and Revision strings contained in an INQUIRY result by setting all non-graphic or non-ASCII characters to ' '. Since the standard disallows such characters, this will affect only non-compliant devices. To help maintain backward compatibility, NUL characters are treated specially. They are taken as string terminators; they and all the following characters are set to ' '. If some valid characters get erased as a result... well, we weren't seeing them before so we haven't lost anything. The primary purpose of this change is to allow blacklist entries to match devices with illegal Vendor or Product strings. In addition, the patch updates a couple of function prototypes, giving inq_result its correct type (unsigned char *).

* [SCSI] sd: fix cache flushing on module removal (and individual device removal)James Bottomley2006-09-01
| | | | | | | | | | The fix isn't actually in sd: it's in scsi_device_get(). I modified it to allow devices to be returned in SDEV_CANCEL, but not SDEV_DEL. This means that the device_remove_driver, which occurs in device_del() in scsi_remove_device() after the device has gone into SDEV_CANCEL is now effective at flushing the cache.

* [SCSI] aic94xx: Increase can_queue for better performanceDarrick J. Wong2006-08-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch sets can_queue in the aic94xx driver's scsi_host to better performing values than what's there currently. It seems that asd_ha->seq.can_queue reflects the number of requests that can be queued per controller; so long as there's one scsi_host per controller, it seems logical that the scsi_host ought to have the same can_queue value. To the best of my (still limited) knowledge, this method provides the correct value. The effect of leaving this value set to 1 is terrible performance in the case of either (a) certain Maxtor SAS drives flying solo or (b) flooding several disks with I/O simultaneously (md-raid). There may be more scenarios where we see similar problems that I haven't uncovered. Signed-off-by: Darrick J. Wong <djwong@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>

* [SCSI] MODULE_FIRMWARE for binary firmware(s)Jon Masters2006-08-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Right now, various kernel modules are being migrated over to use request_firmware in order to pull in binary firmware blobs from userland when the module is loaded. This makes sense. However, there is right now little mechanism in place to automatically determine which binary firmware blobs must be included with a kernel in order to satisfy the prerequisites of these drivers. This affects vendors, but also regular users to a certain extent too. The attached patch introduces MODULE_FIRMWARE as a mechanism for advertising that a particular firmware file is to be loaded - it will then show up via modinfo and could be used e.g. when packaging a kernel.

* [SCSI] scsi_transport_sas: remove local_attached flagJames Bottomley2006-08-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This flag denotes local attachment of the phy. There are two problems with it: 1) It's actually redundant ... you can get the same information simply by seeing whether a host is the phys parent 2) we condition a lot of phy parameters on it on the false assumption that we can only control local phys. I'm wiring up phy resets in the aic94xx now, and it will be able to reset non-local phys as well. I fixed 2) by moving the local check into the reset and stats function of the mptsas, since that seems to be the only HBA that can't (currently) control non-local phys.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Unlike the other tty comment patch this one has code changes.

| * [PATCH] cpuset: top_cpuset tracks hotplug changes to cpu_online_mapPaul Jackson2006-08-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change the list of cpus allowed to tasks in the top (root) cpuset to dynamically track what cpus are online, using a CPU hotplug notifier. Make this top cpus file read-only. On systems that have cpusets configured in their kernel, but that aren't actively using cpusets (for some distros, this covers the majority of systems) all tasks end up in the top cpuset. If that system does support CPU hotplug, then these tasks cannot make use of CPUs that are added after system boot, because the CPUs are not allowed in the top cpuset. This is a surprising regression over earlier kernels that didn't have cpusets enabled. In order to keep the behaviour of cpusets consistent between systems actively making use of them and systems not using them, this patch changes the behaviour of the 'cpus' file in the top (root) cpuset, making it read only, and making it automatically track the value of cpu_online_map. Thus tasks in the top cpuset will have automatic use of hot plugged CPUs allowed by their cpuset.

| * [PATCH] md: avoid backward event updates in md superblock when degraded.NeilBrown2006-08-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If we - shut down a clean array, - restart with one (or more) drive(s) missing - make some changes - pause, so that they array gets marked 'clean', the event count on the superblock of included drives will be the same as that of the removed drives. So adding the removed drive back in will cause it to be included with no resync. To avoid this, we only update the eventcount backwards when the array is not degraded. In this case there can (should) be no non-connected drives that we can get confused with, and this is the particular case where updating-backwards is valuable.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Here's updated documentation for the relay interface, rewritten to match the relayfs->relay changes. It also moves relayfs.txt to relay.txt in the process. It includes the changes to relayfs.txt previously posted by Randy Dunlap, thanks for those. The relay-apps examples have also been updated to match, and can be found on the sourceforge relayfs website.

| * [PATCH] ufs: truncate correctionEvgeniy Dushistov2006-08-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1) When we allocated last fragment in ufs_truncate, we read page, check if block mapped to address, and if not trying to allocate it. This is wrong behaviour, fragment may be NOT allocated, but mapped, this happened because of "block map" function not checked allocated fragment or not, it just take address of the first fragment in the block, add offset of fragment and return result, this is correct behaviour in almost all situation except call from ufs_truncate. 2) Almost all implementation of UFS, which I can investigate have such "defect": if you have full disk, and try truncate file, for example 3GB to 2MB, and have hole in this region, truncate return -ENOSPC. I tried evade from this problem, but "block allocation" algorithm is tied to right value of i_lastfrag, and fix of this corner case may slow down of ordinaries scenarios, so this patch makes behavior of "truncate" operations similar to what other UFS implementations do.

| * [PATCH] ufs: write to hole in big fileEvgeniy Dushistov2006-08-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On UFS, this scenario: open(O_TRUNC) lseek(1024 * 1024 * 80) write("A") lseek(1024 * 2) write("A") may cause access to invalid address. This happened because of "goal" is calculated in wrong way in block allocation path, as I see this problem exists also in 2.4. We use construction like this i_data[lastfrag], i_data array of pointers to direct blocks, indirect and so on, it has ceratain size ~20 elements, and lastfrag may have value for example 40000. Also this patch fixes related to handling such scenario issues, wrong zeroing metadata, in case of block(not fragment) allocation, and wrong goal calculation, when we allocate block Signed-off-by: Evgeniy Dushistov <dushistov@mail.ru> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
| * [PATCH] ext3 filesystem bogus ENOSPC with reservation fixMingming Cao2006-08-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To handle the earlier bogus ENOSPC error caused by filesystem full of block reservation, current code falls back to non block reservation, starts to allocate block(s) from the goal allocation block group as if there is no block reservation. Current code needs to re-load the corresponding block group descriptor for the initial goal block group in this case. The patch fixes this.
