queuecommand
LLDs don't need to zero out scsi_cmnd::sense_buffer in queuecommand
since scsi-ml does. This is a preparation of the future changes to
allocate the sense_buffer only when necessary.
Many LLDs zero out the sense_buffer before touching it on the error
case. This patch lets them alone for now because new APIs for them
would be added later on.

This is bad for two reasons:
1. If they're returned to outside applications, no-one knows what
they mean.
2. Eventually they'll clash with the ever expanding standard error
codes.
The problem error code in question is ETASK. I've replaced this by
ECOMM (communications error on send) a network error code that seems to
most closely relay what ETASK meant.

All SMP tasks sent through bsg generate messages like:
sas: smp_execute_task: task to dev 500605b000001450 response: 0x0 status 0x81
Three times (because the task gets retried). Firstly, don't retry
either overrun or underrun (the data buffer isn't going to change size)
and secondly, just report the underrun but don't set an error for it.
This is necessary so bsg can report back the residual.

libata used private sg iterator to handle padding sg. Now that sg can
be chained, padding can be handled using standard sg ops. Convert to
chained sg.
* s/qc->__sg/qc->sg/
* s/qc->pad_sgent/qc->extra_sg[]/. Because chaining consumes one sg
entry. There need to be two extra sg entries. The renaming is also
for future addition of other extra sg entries.
* Padding setup is moved into ata_sg_setup_extra() which is organized
in a way that future addition of other extra sg entries is easy.
* qc->orig_n_elem is unused and removed.
* qc->n_elem now contains the number of sg entries that LLDs should
map. qc->mapped_n_elem is added to carry the original number of
mapped sgs for unmapping.
* The last sg of the original sg list is used to chain to extra sg
list. The original last sg is pointed to by qc->last_sg and the
content is stored in qc->saved_last_sg. It's restored during
ata_sg_clean().
* All sg walking code has been updated. Unnecessary assertions and
checks for conditions the core layer already guarantees are removed.

The task_struct->pid member is going to be deprecated, so start
using the helpers (task_pid_nr/task_pid_vnr/task_pid_nr_ns) in
the kernel.
The first thing to start with is the pid, printed to dmesg - in
this case we may safely use task_pid_nr(). Besides, printks produce
more (much more) than a half of all the explicit pid usage.

Introduce ata_link. It abstracts PHY and sits between ata_port and
ata_device. This new level of abstraction is necessary to support
SATA Port Multiplier, which basically adds a bunch of links (PHYs) to
a ATA host port. Fields related to command execution, spd_limit and
EH are per-link and thus moved to ata_link.
This patch only defines the host link. Multiple link handling will be
added later. Also, a lot of ap->link derefences are added but many of
them will be removed as each part is converted to deal directly with
ata_link instead of ata_port.
This patch introduces no behavior change.

In sas_smp_get_phy_events() we never test if the call to
alloc_smp_req(RPEL_REQ_SIZE) succeeds or fails. That means we run
the risk of dereferencing a NULL pointer if it does fail. Far
better to test if we got NULL back and in that case return -ENOMEM
just as we already do for the other memory allocation in that
function.

This one was noticed by Gilbert Wu of Adaptec:
The libata core actually does the DMA mapping for you, so there has to
be an exception in the device drivers that *don't* do dma mapping for
ATA commands. However, since we've already done this, libsas must now
dma map any ATA commands that it wishes to issue ... and yes, this is a
horrible mess.
Additionally, the test in aic94xx for ATA protocols isn't quite right.

ATA devices need special handling for sas_task_abort. If the ATA command
came from SCSI, then we merely need to tell SCSI to abort the scsi_cmnd.
However, internal commands require a bit more work--we need to fill the qc
with the appropriate error status and complete the command, and eventually
post_internal will issue the actual ABORT TASK.

The SATL should connect the scsi_cmnd to the sas_task (despite the presence
of libata) so that requests to abort scsi_cmnds headed to the ATA device
can be processed by the EH and aborted correctly. The abort status should
still be propagated from sas -> ata -> scsi.

Since the aic94xx sequencer assigns its own NCQ tags to ATA commands, it
no longer makes any sense to copy the sactive field in the STP response
to ata_port->sactive, as that will confuse libata. Also, libata seems
to be capable of managing sactive on its own.
The attached patch gets rid of one of the causes of the BUG messages in
ata_qc_new, and seems to work without problems on an IBM x206m.

This patch adds a new field, lldd_task, to ata_queued_cmd so that libata
users such as libsas can associate some data with a qc. The particular
ambition with this patch is to associate a sas_task with a qc; that way,
if libata decides to timeout a command, we can come back (in
sas_ata_post_internal) and abort the sas task.
One question remains: Is it necessary to reset the phy on error, or will
the libata error handler take care of it? (Assuming that one is written,
of course.) This patch, as it is today, works well enough to clean
things up when an ATA device probe attempt fails halfway through the probe,
though I'm not sure this is always the right thing to do.

The sas_ata_qc_issue function was incorrectly written to return error
codes such as -ENOMEM. Since libata OR's qc->err_mask with the
return value, It is necessary to make my code return one of the
AC_ERR_ codes instead. For now, use AC_ERR_SYSTEM because an error
here means that the OS couldn't send the command to the controller.
If anybody has a suggestion for a better AC_ERR_ code to use, please
suggest it.

ata_qc_complete and ata_sas_queuecmd require that the port lock be held
when they are called. sas_ata doesn't do this, leading to BUG messages
about qc tags newly allocated qc tags already being in use. This patch
fixes the locking, which should clean up the rest of those messages.
So far I've tested this against an IBM x206m with two SATA disks with no
BUG messages and no other signs of things going wrong, and the machine
finally passed the pounder stress test.

This is a respin of my earlier patch that migrates the ATA support code
into a separate file. For now, the controversial linking bits have
been removed per James Bottomley's request for a patch that contains
only the migration diffs, which means that libsas continues to require
libata. I intend to address that problem in a separate patch.
This patch is against the aic94xx-sas-2.6 git tree, and it has been
sanity tested on my x206m with Seagate SATA and SAS disks without
uncovering any new problems.

We actually had two problems: the one with the tag (which is fixed by
zeroing the tag before sending the taskfile to the sequencer) but the
other with the fact that we sent our first NCQ command to the device
before the sequencer had been informed of the NCQ tagging
capabilities. I fixed the latter by moving the rphy_add() to the
correct point in the code after the NCQ capabilities are set up.

This patch adds SATAII NCQ support to libsas. Both the use_ncq and the
dma_xfer flags in ata_task must be set for NCQ to work correctly on the
Adaptec SAS controller. The rest of the patch adds ATA_FLAG_NCQ to
sata_port_info and sets up ap->scsi_host so that ata_setup_ncq doesn't
crash. Please note that this patch is against the aic94xx-sas git tree,
not scsi-misc. Thanks also to James Bottomley for providing an earlier
version of this patch from which to work.
I've tested this patch on a x206m with a ST380819AS SATA2 disk plugged
into the Adaptec SAS controller. The drive came up with a queue depth
of 31, and I successfully ran an I/O flood test to coerce libata into
sending multiple commands simultaneously. A kernel probe recorded the
maximum tag number that had been seen before and after the flood test;
before the test it was 2 and after it was 30, as I expected.

one could be made to work.
Firstly, I'd like to thank Doug Gilbert for diagnosing a problem with
the LSI expanders where the REPORT_SATA_PHY command was returning the
D2H FIS in the wrong order (Although, here, I think I have to blame the
SAS standards which specifies the FIS "shall be returned in little
endian format" and later on "which means resp[24] shall be FIS type"
The latter, of course, implying big endian format). Just to make sure,
I put a check for the D2H FIS type being in the wrong position and
reverse the FIS data if it is.
The second is a problem outlined in Annex G of the SAS standard (again,
a technical point with D2H FIS ... necessitating a phy reset on certain
conditions).
With the patch, I can now see my SATA-1 disk in a cascaded expander
configuration.

Slab destructors were no longer supported after Christoph's
c59def9f222d44bb7e2f0a559f2906191a0862d7 change. They've been
BUGs for both slab and slub, and slob never supported them
either.
This rips out support for the dtor pointer from kmem_cache_create()
completely and fixes up every single callsite in the kernel (there were
about 224, not including the slab allocator definitions themselves,
or the documentation references).

Currently, the freezer treats all tasks as freezable, except for the kernel
threads that explicitly set the PF_NOFREEZE flag for themselves. This
approach is problematic, since it requires every kernel thread to either
set PF_NOFREEZE explicitly, or call try_to_freeze(), even if it doesn't
care for the freezing of tasks at all.
It seems better to only require the kernel threads that want to or need to
be frozen to use some freezer-related code and to remove any
freezer-related code from the other (nonfreezable) kernel threads, which is
done in this patch.
The patch causes all kernel threads to be nonfreezable by default (ie. to
have PF_NOFREEZE set by default) and introduces the set_freezable()
function that should be called by the freezable kernel threads in order to
unset PF_NOFREEZE. It also makes all of the currently freezable kernel
threads call set_freezable(), so it shouldn't cause any (intentional)
change of behaviour to appear. Additionally, it updates documentation to
describe the freezing of tasks more accurately.

sysfs binary attributes
Well, first of all, I don't want to change so many files either.
What I do:
Adding a new parameter "struct bin_attribute *" in the
.read/.write methods for the sysfs binary attributes.
In fact, only the four lines change in fs/sysfs/bin.c and
include/linux/sysfs.h do the real work.
But I have to update all the files that use binary attributes
to make them compatible with the new .read and .write methods.
I'm not sure if I missed any. :(
Why I do this:
For a sysfs attribute, we can get a pointer pointing to the
struct attribute in the .show/.store method,
while we can't do this for the binary attributes.
I don't know why this is different, but this does make it not
so handy to use the binary attributes as the regular ones.
So I think this patch is reasonable. :)
Who benefits from it:
The patch that exposes ACPI tables in sysfs
requires such an improvement.
All the table binary attributes share the same .read method.
Parameter "struct bin_attribute *" is used to get
the table signature and instance number which are used to
distinguish different ACPI table binary attributes.
Without this parameter, we need to offer different .read methods
for different ACPI table binary attributes.
This is impossible as there are various ACPI tables on different
platforms, and we don't know what they are until they are loaded.

sysfs is now completely out of driver/module lifetime game. After
deletion, a sysfs node doesn't access anything outside sysfs proper,
so there's no reason to hold onto the attribute owners. Note that
often the wrong modules were accounted for as owners leading to
accessing removed modules.
This patch kills now unnecessary attribute->owner. Note that with
this change, userland holding a sysfs node does not prevent the
backing module from being unloaded.
For more info regarding lifetime rule cleanup, please read the
following message.

merge things properly.)
