| * powerpc: Use correct sequence for putting CPU into nap modePaul Mackerras2006-04-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We weren't using the recommended sequence for putting the CPU into nap mode. When I changed the idle loop, for some reason 7447A cpus started hanging when we put them into nap mode. Changing to the recommended sequence fixes that. The complexity here is that the recommended sequence is a loop that keeps putting the cpu back into nap mode. Clearly we need some way to break out of the loop when an interrupt (external interrupt, decrementer, performance monitor) occurs. Here we use a bit in the thread_info struct to indicate that we need this, and the exception entry code notices this and arranges for the exception to return to the value in the link register, thus breaking out of the loop. We use a new `local_flags' field in the thread_info which we can alter without needing to use an atomic update sequence. The PPC970 has the same recommended sequence, so we do the same thing there too. This also fixes a bug in the kernel stack overflow handling code on 32-bit, since it was causing a value that we needed in a register to get trashed. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
| * powerpc: iSeries has only 256 IRQsStephen Rothwell2006-04-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The iSeries Hypervisor only allows us to specify IRQ numbers up to 255 (it has a u8 field to pass it in). This patch allows platforms to specify a maximum to the virtual IRQ numbers we will use and has iSeries set that to 255. If not set, the maximum is NR_IRQS - 1 (as before).

| * | | | [SCSI] FC transport: fixes for workq deadlocksJames Smart2006-04-13

There are 2 deadlocks occurring: - With scan and the delete items sharing the same workq, flushing the workq for the delete code was getting it stalled behind a very long running scan code path. - There's a deadlock where scsi_remove_target() has to sit behind scsi_scan_target() due to contention over the scan_lock(). This patch resolves the 1st deadlock and significantly reduces the odds of the second. So far, we have only replicated the 2nd deadlock on a highly-parallel SMP system. More on the 2nd deadlock in a following email. This patch reworks the transport to: - Only use the scsi host workq for scanning - Use 2 other workq's internally. One for deletions, the other for scheduled deletions. Originally, we tried this with a single workq, but the occassional flushes of the scheduled queues was hitting the second deadlock with a slightly higher frequency. In the future, we'll look at the LLDD's and the transport to see if we can get rid of this extra overhead. - When moving to the other workq's we tightened up some object states and some lock handling. - Properly syncs adds/deletes - minor code cleanups - directly reference fc_host_attrs, rather than through attribute macros - flush the right workq on delayed work cancel failures. Large kudos to Michael Reed who has been working this issue for the last month. Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>
| * | | | [SCSI] add SCSI_UNKNOWN and LUN transfer limit restrictionsJames Bottomley2006-04-13

This patch now correctly handles SCSI_UNKNOWN types with regard to BLIST_REPORTLUNS2 (allow it) and cdb[1] LUN inclusion (don't). It also allows a BLIST_MAX_512 flag to restrict the maximum transfer length to 512 blocks (apparently this is an RA4100 problem). Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>

Both of them have drawbacks. This patch kills the scsi layer version after updating the block version with the missing bits: - argument checking - use scatterlist I/O - set number of retries based on the submitted command This is the last user of non-S/G I/O except for the gdth driver, so getting this in ASAP and through the scsi tree would be nie to kill the non-S/G I/O path. Jens, what do you think about adding a check for non-S/G I/O in the midlayer? Thanks to Or Gerlitz for testing this patch.

Currently there is no sane way to tell if partitions will show up or not at the time the disk device is announced to userspace. With the delayed events we can simply skip any probe for a filesystem on the raw disk when we find already present partitions.

| * | | | | [PATCH] sysfs: Allow sysfs attribute files to be pollableNeilBrown2006-04-14
| |/ / / / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It works like this: Open the file Read all the contents. Call poll requesting POLLERR or POLLPRI (so select/exceptfds works) When poll returns, close the file and go to top of loop. or lseek to start of file and go back to the 'read'. Events are signaled by an object manager calling sysfs_notify(kobj, dir, attr); If the dir is non-NULL, it is used to find a subdirectory which contains the attribute (presumably created by sysfs_create_group). This has a cost of one int per attribute, one wait_queuehead per kobject, one int per open file. The name "sysfs_notify" may be confused with the inotify functionality. Maybe it would be nice to support inotify for sysfs attributes as well? This patch also uses sysfs_notify to allow /sys/block/md*/md/sync_action to be pollable Signed-off-by: Neil Brown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

| * | | [PATCH] splice: add support for sys_tee()Jens Axboe2006-04-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Basically an in-kernel implementation of tee, which uses splice and the pipe buffers as an intelligent way to pass data around by reference. Where the user space tee consumes the input and produces a stdout and file output, this syscall merely duplicates the data inside a pipe to another pipe. No data is copied, the output just grabs a reference to the input pipe data. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We need not use ->f_pos as the offset for the file input/output. If the user passed an offset pointer in through sys_splice(), just use that and leave ->f_pos alone. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

For static rate encoding, use encoding of rate field from IB standard PathRecord, with addition of value 0, for backwards compatibility with current usage. The changes are: - Add enum ib_rate to midlayer includes. - Get rid of static rate translation in IPoIB; just use static rate directly from Path and MulticastGroup records. - Update mthca driver to translate absolute static rate into the format used by hardware. This also fixes mthca's static rate handling for HCAs that are capable of 4X DDR. Signed-off-by: Jack Morgenstein <jackm@mellanox.co.il> Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
