* [PATCH] libata: implement new SCR handling and port on/offline functionsTejun Heo2006-05-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Implement ata_scr_{valid|read|write|write_flush}() and ata_port_{online|offline}(). These functions replace scr_{read|write}() and sata_dev_present(). Major difference between between the new SCR functions and the old ones is that the new ones have a way to signal error to the caller. This makes handling SCR-available and SCR-unavailable cases in the same path easier. Also, it eases later PM implementation where SCR access can fail due to various reasons. ata_port_{online|offline}() functions return 1 only when they are affirmitive of the condition. e.g. if SCR is unaccessible or presence cannot be determined for other reasons, these functions return 0. So, ata_port_online() != !ata_port_offline(). This distinction is useful in many exception handling cases. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com>
* [PATCH] libata: implement qc->result_tfTejun Heo2006-05-15
| | | | | | | | | | | Add qc->result_tf and ATA_QCFLAG_RESULT_TF. This moves the responsibility of loading result TF from post-compltion path to qc execution path. qc->result_tf is loaded if explicitly requested or the qc failsa. This allows more efficient completion implementation and correct handling of result TF for controllers which don't have global TF representation such as sil3124/32.

* [PATCH] libata: use preallocated buffersTejun Heo2006-05-15
| | | | | | | | | | It's not a very good idea to allocate memory during EH. Use statically allocated buffer for dev->id[] and add 512byte buffer ap->sector_buf. This buffer is owned by EH (or probing) and to be used as temporary buffer for various purposes (IDENTIFY, NCQ log page 10h, PM GSCR block). Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com>

* [PATCH] SCSI: implement shost->host_eh_scheduledTejun Heo2006-05-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | libata needs to invoke EH without scmd. This patch adds shost->host_eh_scheduled to implement such behavior. Currently the only user of this feature is libata and no general interface is defined. This patch simply adds handling for host_eh_scheduled where needed and exports scsi_eh_wakeup() to modules. The rest is upto libata. This is the result of the following discussion. http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.scsi/23853/focus=9760 In short, SCSI host is not supposed to know about exceptions unrelated to specific device or command. Such exceptions should be handled by transport layer proper. However, the distinction is not essential to ATA and libata is planning to depart from SCSI, so, for the time being, libata will be using SCSI EH to handle such exceptions.

* [PATCH] SCSI: Introduce scsi_req_abort_cmd (REPOST)Luben Tuikov2006-05-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Introduce scsi_req_abort_cmd(struct scsi_cmnd *). This function requests that SCSI Core start recovery for the command by deleting the timer and adding the command to the eh queue. It can be called by either LLDDs or SCSI Core. LLDDs who implement their own error recovery MAY ignore the timeout event if they generated scsi_req_abort_cmd.

This means the value leak through context switches and allow processes to observe some x87 instruction state of other processes. This was actually documented by AMD, but nobody recognized it as being different from Intel before. The fix first adds an optimization: instead of unconditionally calling FNCLEX after each FXSAVE test if ES is pending and skip it when not needed. Then do a x87 load from a kernel variable to clear FOP/FIP/FDP. This means other processes always will only see a constant value defined by the kernel in their FP state. I took some pain to make sure to chose a variable that's already in L1 during context switch to make the overhead of this low. Also alternative() is used to patch away the new code on CPUs who don't need it. Patch for both i386/x86-64. The problem was discovered originally by Jan Beulich.

Some m32r processor core with !CONFIG_ISA_DSP_LEVEL2 configuration has only single accumulator a0 (ex. VDEC2 core, M32102 core, etc.), the others with CONFIG_ISA_DSP_LEVEL2 has two accumulators, a0 and a1. This means there are two variations of thread context. So far, we reduced and changed stackframe size at a syscall for their context size. However, this causes a problem that a GDB for processors with CONFIG_ISA_DSP_LEVEL2 cannot be used for processors with !CONFIG_ISA_DSP_LEVEL2. From the viewpoint of GDB support, we should reduce such variation of stackframe size for simplicity. In this patch, dummy members are added to 'struct pt_regs' and 'struct sigcontext' to adjust their size for !CONFIG_ISA_DSP_LEVEL2. This modification is also a one step for a GDB update in future. Currently, on the m32r, GDB can access process's context by using ptrace functions in a simple way of register by register access. By unifying stackframe size, we have a possibility to make use of ptrace functions of not only a single register access but also block register access, PTRACE_{GETREGS,PUTREGS}. However, for this purpose, we might have to modify stackframe structure some more; for example, PSW (processor status word) register should be pre-processed before pushing to stack at a syscall, and so on. In this case, we must update carefully both kernel and GDB at a time...

| * | [PATCH] task: Make task list manipulations RCU safeEric W. Biederman2006-04-19
| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While we can currently walk through thread groups, process groups, and sessions with just the rcu_read_lock, this opens the door to walking the entire task list. We already have all of the other RCU guarantees so there is no cost in doing this, this should be enough so that proc can stop taking the tasklist lock during readdir. prev_task was killed because it has no users, and using it will miss new tasks when doing an rcu traversal.
