* [SCSI] aic79xx: use dma_get_required_mask()Hannes Reinecke2007-02-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As originally noted by Frederic Temporelli, the aic79xx supports 64 bit addressing, but the initialization code of the driver is wrong: it tests the available memory size instead of testing the maximum available memory address. This patch uses the correct dma_get_required_mask() macros to determine the correct addressing method.

* [SCSI] scsi_error: Fix lost EH commandsBrian King2007-02-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | If an EH command times out today, the LLDD's abort handler will be called to abort the command.

* [SCSI] aic94xx: Remove TMF result code mungingDarrick J. Wong2007-02-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | In asd_initiate_ssp_tmf, the TMF result code is replaced with TMF_RESP_FUNC_FAILED except when the TMF returns a result code immediately. However, TMFs can return result codes via an ESCB... yet these codes are also replaced with "FAILED". The only values that can fall into that case are TMF_* codes anyway, so get rid of this code where COMPLETE and SUCCESS are turned into FAILED. This also lets us propagate those TMF_* codes up to the caller. Signed-off-by: Darrick J. Wong <djwong@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>

* [SCSI] libsas: Don't BUG when connecting two expanders via wide portDarrick J. Wong2007-02-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | libsas: Don't BUG when connecting two expanders via wide port When a device is connected to an expander, the discovery process goes through sas_ex_discover_dev to figure out what's attached to the phy. If it is the case that the phy being discovered happens to be the second phy of a wide link to an expander, that discover_dev function will incorrectly call sas_ex_discover_expander, which creates another sas_port and tries to attach the other sas_phys to the new port, thus triggering a BUG. The correct thing to do is to check the other ex_phys of the expander to see if there's a sas_port for this sas_phy, and attach the sas_phy to the existing sas_port. This is easily triggered if one enables the phys of a wide port between expanders one by one. This second version of the patch fixes a small regression in the case where all the phys show up at once and we accidentally try to attach to a port that hasn't been created yet.

Read does trigger it in my system. The bug is not associated with any specific HBA. st tries to do direct i/o in fixed block mode with reads that are not a multiple of tape block size. The patch in this message fixes the st problem by switching to using the driver buffer up to the next close of the device file in fixed block mode if the user asks for a read like this. I don't know why the bug has surfaced only after 2.6.17 although the st problem is old. There may be another bug in the block subsystem and this patch works around it. However, the patch fixes a problem in st and in this way it is a valid fix. This patch may also fix the bug 7900. The patch compiles and is lightly tested.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The apple powerbook people are used to switch the pb_fnmode setting at runtime through writing to sysfs, altering the module parameter value. This was broken for them in 2.6.20-rc1 when generic HID layer was introduced, as the pb_fnmode flag was made per-hiddevice, instead of global variable.

Quoth David: "Jeff, please revert It's wrong. We had a lengthy analysis of this piece of code several months ago, and it is correct. Consider, if we run the loop and we get an error the following happens: 1) attempt of ifb_init_one(i) fails, therefore we should not try to "ifb_free_one()" on "i" since it failed 2) the loop iteration first increments "i", then it check for error Therefore we must decrement "i" twice before the first free during the cleanup. One to "undo" the for() loop increment, and one to "skip" the ifb_init_one() case which failed."

| * | [PATCH] namespaces: fix task exit disasterSerge E. Hallyn2007-01-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is based on a patch by Eric W. Biederman, who pointed out that pid namespaces are still fake, and we only have one ever active. So for the time being, we can modify any code which could access tsk->nsproxy->pid_ns during task exit to just use &init_pid_ns instead, and move the exit_task_namespaces call in do_exit() back above exit_notify(), so that an exiting nfs server has a valid tsk->sighand to work with. Long term, pulling pid_ns out of nsproxy might be the cleanest solution. Signed-off-by: Eric W.
