* [SCSI] sgiwd93: interfacing to wd33c93peter fuerst2007-02-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1) sgiwd93 used to switch off asynchronous mode on the wd33c93, discarding any "nosync"-requests from the commandline. But we need to allow "nosync"-requests for selected devices, for example the Pioneer DVD305S. (For the curious: this device accepts the SDTR from wd33c93 and success- fully sends inquiry data in sync mode, but after the data phase in the inquiry command does an unexpected disconnect, seemingly sending no "status" or "command complete". Forcing async transfers makes it work together flawlessly with the wd33c93. Of course, preferable would be, to implement wd33c93's "resume command" stuff, but that probably will not come soon.) 2) Maximize benefit from the preceding Fast SCSI patch for wd33c93 by passing the higher input-clock frequency explicitely. To be applied after the mentioned wd33c93 patch. Signed-off-by: peter fuerst <post@pfrst.de> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>
* [SCSI] wd33c93: Fast SCSI with WD33C93Bpeter fuerst2007-02-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Attached are patches, which help to utilize more of the WD33C93B SCSI controller's capabilities. 1) Added/changed all the necessary code to enable Burst Mode DMA. Only Single Byte DMA was used before. 2) Added/changed all the necessary code to enable Fast-10 SCSI transfers. 3) The original driver inadvertently used a transfer period of 1000-800ns (the lowest possible transfer rate) for asynchronous data transfers, instead of the (configurable) default period intended for this purpose, if the target responded to a SDTR not with a Reject-message, but with a zero-SDTR. This issue was fixed. Moreover, in case of a Reject the driver used the default-period's initialization-value instead of its (maybe smaller) current value. The missing assignment was added. 4) The driver's commandline- and proc-file-interface was augmented to handle the new options properly. The WD33C93 manual, found at http://www.datasheet.in/datasheet-html/W/D/3/WD33C93B_WesternDigital.pdf.html, was very helpful.

* sata_vsc: use default cache line size if non-zeroNate Dailey2007-02-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This modifies drivers/ata/sata_vsc.c to only set the cache line size to 0x80 if the default value is zero. Apparently zero isn't allowed due to a bug in the chip, but I've found performance is much better with the (non-zero) default instead of 0x80.

| | | | | | | | | | | The hald media changed polling does really confuse things. Noone knows why the delays are needed, but they give us access to the CD. An udelay(50) will give reliable access to the drive, but there is still one (or more) EH reset. The drive works without EH resets with udelay(100).

* sata_promise: new EH conversion for 20619 chips, take 2Mikael Pettersson2007-02-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch updates the sata_promise driver to use new-style libata error handling for 20619 (TX4000) chips. sata_promise already uses new EH for the other chips it supports, so the patch is quite simple: * remove ->phy_reset and ->eng_timeout ops from pdc_pata_ops, and instead bind ->freeze, ->thaw, ->error_handler, and ->post_internal_cmd to existing new EH functions * drop ATA_FLAG_SRST from board_20619's flags * remove now unused pdc_pata_phy_reset() and pdc_eng_timeout() Tested on a TX4000 with both modern working disks and old/quirky disks.

Frustratingly, adding printks or function tracing to the ACPI code made the hangs go away ... After some time an additional detail emerged: disabling the NMI watchdog made these occasional hangs go away. So i spent the better part of today trying to debug this and trying out various theories when i finally found the likely reason for the hang: if acpi_ns_initialize_devices() executes an _INI AML method and an NMI happens to hit that AML execution in the wrong moment, the machine would hang. (my theory is that this must be some sort of chipset setup method doing stores to chipset mmio registers?) Unfortunately given the characteristics of the hang it was sheer impossible to figure out which of the numerous AML methods is impacted by this problem. As a workaround i wrote an interface to disable chipset-based NMIs while executing _INI sections - and indeed this fixed the hang. I did a boot-loop of 100 separate reboots and none hung - while without the patch it would hang every 5-10 attempts. Out of caution i did not touch the nmi_watchdog=2 case (it's not related to the chipset anyway and didnt hang). I implemented this for both x86_64 and i686, tested the i686 laptop both with nmi_watchdog=1 [which triggered the hangs] and nmi_watchdog=2, and tested an Athlon64 box with the 64-bit kernel as well. Everything builds and works with the patch applied.

| * [PATCH] i386: Convert i386 PDA code to use %fsJeremy Fitzhardinge2007-02-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Convert the PDA code to use %fs rather than %gs as the segment for per-processor data. This is because some processors show a small but measurable performance gain for reloading a NULL segment selector (as %fs generally is in user-space) versus a non-NULL one (as %gs generally is). On modern processors the difference is very small, perhaps undetectable. Some old AMD "K6 3D+" processors are noticably slower when %fs is used rather than %gs; I have no idea why this might be, but I think they're sufficiently rare that it doesn't matter much. This patch also fixes the math emulator, which had not been adjusted to match the changed struct pt_regs.

* | [PATCH] sysctl: remove insert_at_head from register_sysctlEric W. Biederman2007-02-14

Which is pain for caching and the proc interface never implemented. I have done an audit and discovered that none of the current users of register_sysctl care as (excpet for directories) they do not register duplicate sysctl entries. So this patch simply removes the support for overriding existing entries in the sys_sysctl interface since no one uses it or cares and it makes future enhancments harder. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is no need for open files in /proc/sys/XXX to hold a reference count on the module that provides the file to prevent module unload races. While there is code active in the module p->used in the sysctl_table_header is incremented, preventing the sysctl from being unregisted. Once the sysctl is unregistered it cannot be found. Open files are also not a problem as they revalidate the sysctl information and bump p->used before accessing module code. So setting de->owner is unnecessary, makes for a bad example and gets in my way of removing ctl_table->de. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

* | [PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.hTim Schmielau2007-02-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes. There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need anything defined in there. Presumably these includes were once needed for macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the course of cleaning it up. To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble. Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha, arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig, allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all configs in arch/arm/configs on arm. I also checked that no new warnings were introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted by unnecessarily included header files).

The problem is that the UART does not reassert the THRE interrupt if it has been previously cleared and the IIR THRI bit is re-enabled. This can produce a very annoying failure mode when used as a serial console, allowing a boot/reboot to hang indefinitely until an RX interrupt kicks it into working again (ie. an unattended reboot could stall). To solve this problem, a backup timer is introduced that runs alongside the standard interrupt driven mechanism. This timer wakes up periodically, checks for a hang condition and gets characters moving again. This backup mechanism is only enabled if the UART is detected as having this problem, so systems without these UARTs will have no additional overhead. This version of the patch incorporates previous comments from Pavel and removes races in the bug detection code. The test is now done before the irq linking to prevent races with interrupt handler clearing the THRE interrupt. Short delays and syncs are also added to ensure the device is able to update register state before the result is tested. Aristeu says: this was tested on the following HP machines and solved the problem: rx2600, rx2620, rx1600 and rx1620s. hpa says: I have seen this same bug in soft UART IP from "a major vendor."

| * | IB/mthca: Always fill MTTs from CPUMichael S. Tsirkin2007-02-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Speed up memory registration by filling in MTTs directly when the CPU can write directly to the whole table (all mem-free cards, and to Tavor mode on 64-bit systems with the patch I posted earlier). This reduces the number of FW commands needed to register an MR by at least a factor of 2 and speeds up memory registration significantly. Signed-off-by: Michael S.

| * | IB/mthca: Merge MR and FMR space on 64-bit systemsMichael S. Tsirkin2007-02-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For Tavor, we currently reserve separate MPT and MTT space for FMRs to avoid abusing the vmalloc space on 32 bit kernels. No such problem exists on 64 bit kernels so let's not do it there. This way we have a shared pool for MR and FMR resources, used on demand. This will also make it possible to write MTTs for regular regions directly from driver. Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@mellanox.co.il> Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
| * | IB/mthca: Fix access to MTT and MPT tables on non-cache-coherent CPUsMichael S. Tsirkin2007-02-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We allocate the MTT table with alloc_pages() and then do pci_map_sg(), so we must call pci_dma_sync_sg() after the CPU writes to the MTT table. This works since the device will never write MTTs on mem-free HCAs, once we get rid of the use of the WRITE_MTT firmware command. This change is needed to make that work, and is an improvement for now, since it gives FMRs a chance at working. For MPTs, both the device and CPU might write there, so we must allocate DMA coherent memory for these. Signed-off-by: Michael S.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | MTTs are allocated in non-cache-coherent memory, so we must give reserved MTTs their own cache line, to prevent both device and CPU from writing into the same cache line at the same time.

Points to note: (1) The asm volatile flush/flushw are just markers for viewing what comes out in the assembly; removing them has no effect on the result. (2) Changing almost anything else in dwh__mthca_arbel_init_srq_context() or dwh__mthca_alloc_srq() causes the problem to go away. The compiler command line issued by the kernel build is: /opt/crosstool/gcc-3.4.5-glibc-2.3.6/sparc64-unknown-linux-gnu/bin/sparc64-unknown-linux-gnu-gcc -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-common -Os -m64 -mno-fpu -mcpu=ultrasparc -mcmodel=medlow -ffixed-g4 -ffixed-g5 -fcall-used-g7 -Wa,--undeclared-regs -pg -fno-omit-frame-pointer -fno-optimize-sibling-calls -fasynchronous-unwind-tables -g -c -o drivers/infiniband/hw/mthca/.tmp_mthca_srq.o drivers/infiniband/hw/mthca/mthca_srq.c This can be reduced to this whilst still retaining the problem: /opt/crosstool/gcc-3.4.5-glibc-2.3.6/sparc64-unknown-linux-gnu/bin/sparc64-unknown-linux-gnu-gcc -m64 -c -o drivers/infiniband/hw/mthca/mthca_srq.o drivers/infiniband/hw/mthca/mthca_srq.c -Os Removing -Os or changing it to -O or -O0 thru -O6 gets rid of the problem.

| * | IPoIB: Connected mode experimental supportMichael S. Tsirkin2007-02-10

The idea is to increase performance by increasing the MTU from the maximum of 2K (theoretically 4K) supported by IPoIB on top of UD. With this code, I'm able to get 800MByte/sec or more with netperf without options on a Mellanox 4x back-to-back DDR system. Some notes on code: 1. SRQ is used for scalability to large cluster sizes 2. Only RC connections are used (UC does not support SRQ now) 3. Retry count is set to 0 since spec draft warns against retries 4. Each connection is used for data transfers in only 1 direction, so each connection is either active(TX) or passive (RX). 2 sides that want to communicate create 2 connections. 5. Each active (TX) connection has a separate CQ for send completions - this keeps the code simple without CQ resize and other tricks 6. To detect stale passive side connections (where the remote side is down), we keep an LRU list of passive connections (updated once per second per connection) and destroy a connection after it has been unused for several seconds. The LRU rule makes it possible to avoid scanning connections that have recently been active. Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@mellanox.co.il> Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
