Explain the mysteries of set_current_state().
Quoth Linus:
The scheduler itself never needs the memory barrier at all.
The barrier is needed only if the user itself ends up testing some other
thing afterwards, ie if you have
set_process_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE);
if (still_need_to_sleep())
schedule();
then the "still_need_to_sleep()" thing may test flags and wakeup events,
and then you _may_ want to (and often do) make sure that the write of
TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE is serialized wrt the reads of any wakeup data (since
the wakeup may have happened on another CPU).
So the comment is somewhat wrong. We don't really _care_ whether the state
propagates out to other CPU's since all of our actions are purely local,
and there is nothing we do that is conditional on any other CPU: we're
going to sleep unconditionally, and the scheduler only cares about _our_
state, not about somebody elses state.

Force a compiler error instead of a link error, because they are easier to
track down. Idea stolen from code by Jan Beulich <jbeulich@novell.com>
If the argument to BUILD_BUG_ON evaluates to non-zero the compiler will do:
t.c:6: error: size of array `type name' is negative

When open(O_CREAT) is called and the error, ENFILE, is returned, the file
may be created anyway. This is counter intuitive, against the SUS V3
specification, and may cause applications to misbehave if they are not
coded correctly to handle this semantic. The SUS V3 specification
explicitly states "No files shall be created or modified if the function
returns -1.".
The error, ENFILE, is used to indicate the system wide open file table is
full and no more file structs can be allocated.
This is due to an ordering problem. The entry in the directory is created
before the file struct is allocated. If the allocation for the file struct
fails, then the system call must return an error, but the directory entry
was already created and can not be safely removed.
The solution to this situation is relatively easy. The file struct should
be allocated before the directory entry is created. If the allocation
fails, then the error can be returned directly. If the creation of the
directory entry fails, then the file struct can be easily freed.

Discard *.exit.text sections on runtime. We cannot do this on link time
because of the way BUG macros are implemented. If "__exit function" calls
one of those macros, __bug_table section will reference this function.
This is similar to ".altinstructions" situation on i386.
*.exit.data seems to be OK in this respect and is discarded on link
time.

It's a dword thing, and the value we write is a dword. Doing a byte
write to it is nonsensical, and writes only the low byte, which only
contains the enable bit. So we enable a nonsensical address (usually
zero), which causes the controller no end of problems.
Trivial fix, but nasty to find.

The original API returned either an ERR_PTR() or a refcounted sdev.
Unfortunately, if it's successful, you need to do a scsi_device_put() on
the sdev otherwise the refcounting is wrong.
Everyone seems to expect that scsi_add_device() should be callable
without doing the ref put, so alter the API so it is (we still have
__scsi_add_device with the original behaviour).
The only actual caller that needs altering is the one in firewire ...
not because it gets this right, but because it acts on the error if one
is returned.

This is needed with the latest scsi-block-2.6 merge otherwise the 3w-9xxx

The SAS transport class contains common code to deal with SAS HBAs, an
aproximated representation of SAS topologies in the driver model,
and various sysfs attributes to expose these topologies and managment
interfaces to userspace.
In addition to the basic SCSI core objects this transport class introduces
two additional intermediate objects: The SAS PHY as represented by struct
sas_phy defines an "outgoing" PHY on a SAS HBA or Expander, and the SAS
remote PHY represented by struct sas_rphy defines an "incoming" PHY on a
SAS Expander or end device. Note that this is purely a software concept, the
underlying hardware for a PHY and a remote PHY is the exactly the same.
There is no concept of a SAS port in this code, users can see what PHYs
form a wide port based on the port_identifier attribute, which is the same
for all PHYs in a port.
This submission doesn't handle hot-plug addition or removal of SAS devices
and thus doesn't do scanning in a workqueue yet, that will be added in
phase2 after this submission. In a third phase I will add additional
managment infrastructure.
I think this submission is ready for 2.6.14, but additional comments are
of course very welcome.
I'd like to thanks James Smart a lot for his very useful input on the
design.

The soon to be released smartmontools 5.34 uses the
READ DEFECT DATA command on SCSI disks. A disk that
has defect list entries (or worse, an increasing number
of them) is at risk.
Currently the first invocation of smartctl causes this:
scsi: unknown opcode 0x37
message to appear the console and in the log.
The READ DEFECT DATA SCSI command does not change
the state of a disk. Its opcode (0x37) is valid for
SBC devices (e.g. disks) and SMC-2 devices (media
changers) where it is called INITIALIZE STATUS ELEMENT
WITH RANGE and again doesn't change the external state
of the device.
Changelog:
- mark SCSI opcode 0x37 (READ DEFECT DATA) as
safe_for_read

Further to the problem discussed in this post:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-scsi&m=112540053711489&w=2
It seems that the sg driver does not need to set the VM_IO flag
on pages that it memory maps to the user space since they are
not from the IO space. Ahmed Teirelbar <ahmed.teirelbar@adic.com>
wants the facility and has tested this patch as I have without
adverse effects.
The oops protection is still important. Some users really did
try and use dio transfers from the sg driver to memory mapped
IO space (on a video capture card if my memory serves) during the
lk 2.4 series. I'm not sure how successful it was but that will
now be politely refused in lk 2.6.13+ .

to the user space to VM_RESERVED (rather than
VM_RESERVED | VM_IO )

Actually, just one problem and one cosmetic fix:
1) We need to dequeue for the loop and kill case (it seems easiest
simply to dequeue in the scsi_kill_request() routine)
2) There's no real need to drop the queue lock. __scsi_done() is lock
agnostic, so since there's no requirement, let's just leave it in to
avoid any locking issues.

This patch (as559b) adds a new routine, scsi_unprep_request, which
gets called every place a request is requeued. (That includes
scsi_queue_insert as well as scsi_requeue_command.) It also changes
scsi_kill_requests to make it call __scsi_done with result equal to
DID_NO_CONNECT << 16. (I'm not sure if it's necessary to call
scsi_init_cmd_errh here; maybe you can check on that.) Finally, the
patch changes the return value from scsi_end_request, to avoid
returning a stale pointer in the case where the request was requeued.
Fortunately the return value is used in only place, and the change
actually simplified it.

If a filesystem, while writing out data, decides that it is good
to issue a cache flush on a SCSI drive (or other 'sd' device), it will
call blkdev_issue_flush which calls ->issue_flush_fn which is
scsi_issue_flush_fn.
This calls sd_issue_flush which calls sd_sync_cache, which calls
scsi_execute_request.
This will (as sshdr != NULL) call
kmalloc(SCSI_SENSE_BUFFERSIZE, GFP_KERNEL)
If memory is tight, the presence of GFP_KERNEL may cause write
requests to be sent to some filesystem to free up memory, however if
that filesystem is waiting for the issue_flush_fn to complete, you
could get a deadlock.
I wonder if it might be more appropriate to use GFP_NOIO as in the
following patch.
I wonder if it might be even more appropriate to cope better with a
kmalloc failure, especially as in this use, sd_sync_cache only will
use the sense information to print out a more informative error
message.

when the caller already owns the scan_mutex, and updates the kerneldoc for
that routine (which was badly out-of-date). It converts scsi_scan_channel

it acquire the scan_mutex, necessary since the routine adds a new

NET/ROM is lacking a connection reset like TCP's RST flag which at times
may result in a connecting having to slowly timing out instead of just being
reset. An earlier attempt to reset the connection by sending a
NR_CONNACK | NR_CHOKE_FLAG transport was inacceptable as it did result in
crashes of BPQ systems. An alternative approach of introducing a new
transport type 7 (NR_RESET) has be implemented several years ago in
Paula Jayne Dowie G8PZT's Xrouter.
Implement NR_RESET for Linux's NET/ROM but like any messing with the state
engine consider this experimental for now and thus control it by a sysctl

ARP over ROSE does not exist so it's obviously not implemented on any
ROSE stack, so the ROSE interfaces really should default to IFF_NOARP.
