ia64: don't use module_init in non-modular sim/simscsi.c code

2015-06-16T18:12:30+00:00

The simscsi.o is built for HP_SIMSCSI -- which is bool, and hence this code is either present or absent. It will never be modular, so using module_init as an alias for __initcall can be somewhat misleading. Fix this up now, so that we can relocate module_init from init.h into module.h in the future. If we don't do this, we'd have to add module.h to obviously non-modular code, and that would be a worse thing. Note that direct use of __initcall is discouraged, vs. one of the priority categorized subgroups. As __initcall gets mapped onto device_initcall, our use of device_initcall directly in this change means that the runtime impact is zero -- it will remain at level 6 in initcall ordering. And since it can't be modular, we remove all the __exitcall stuff related to module_exit() -- it is dead code that won't ever be executed.

[IA64] hpsim: Fix check for overlong simscsi prefix.

2013-06-03T23:09:43+00:00

When "strlen(s) > MAX_ROOT_LEN", it has already said to use the default value, but in fact, it still use the input value. If happens, next sprintf() for 'fname' in simscsi_queuecommand_lck() may be memory overflow. Signed-off-by: Chen Gang Signed-off-by: Tony Luck

SCSI host lock push-down

2010-11-16T21:33:23+00:00

Move the mid-layer's ->queuecommand() invocation from being locked with the host lock to being unlocked to facilitate speeding up the critical path for drivers who don't need this lock taken anyway. The patch below presents a simple SCSI host lock push-down as an equivalent transformation. No locking or other behavior should change with this patch. All existing bugs and locking orders are preserved. Additionally, add one parameter to queuecommand, struct Scsi_Host * and remove one parameter from queuecommand, void (*done)(struct scsi_cmnd *) Scsi_Host* is a convenient pointer that most host drivers need anyway, and 'done' is redundant to struct scsi_cmnd->scsi_done. Minimal code disturbance was attempted with this change. Most drivers needed only two one-line modifications for their host lock push-down.

[SCSI] simscsi: use sg buffer copy helper funcitons

[SCSI] remove use_sg_chaining

2008-01-30T19:14:02+00:00

With the sg table code, every SCSI driver is now either chain capable or broken (or has sg_tablesize set so chaining is never activated), so there's no need to have a check in the host template. Also tidy up the code by moving the scatterlist size defines into the SCSI includes and permit the last entry of the scatterlist pools not to be a power of two. Signed-off-by: James Bottomley

[SCSI] add use_sg_chaining option to scsi_host_template

2007-10-16T09:24:32+00:00

This option is true if a low-level driver can support sg chaining. This will be removed eventually when all the drivers are converted to support sg chaining. q->max_phys_segments is set to SCSI_MAX_SG_SEGMENTS if false. Signed-off-by: FUJITA Tomonori Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

[IA64] Cleanup HPSIM code (was: Re: Enable early console for Ski simulator)

2007-09-01T09:52:25+00:00

After my last patch we have a new header file for HP simulator use. Here's code to use it for stuff that used to have `extern' statements inline in the code. Functionality should not change with this patch. Signed-off-by: Peter Chubb Signed-off-by: Tony Luck
