<title>Convert more 'alloc_obj' cases to default GFP_KERNEL arguments</title>

<id>urn:sha1:32a92f8c89326985e05dce8b22d3f0aa07a3e1bd</id>
<content type='text'>
This converts some of the visually simpler cases that have been split
over multiple lines.  I only did the ones that are easy to verify the
resulting diff by having just that final GFP_KERNEL argument on the next
line.

Somebody should probably do a proper coccinelle script for this, but for
me the trivial script actually resulted in an assertion failure in the
middle of the script.  I probably had made it a bit _too_ trivial.

So after fighting that far a while I decided to just do some of the
syntactically simpler cases with variations of the previous 'sed'
scripts.

The more syntactically complex multi-line cases would mostly really want
whitespace cleanup anyway.

<title>treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types</title>

<id>urn:sha1:69050f8d6d075dc01af7a5f2f550a8067510366f</id>
<content type='text'>
This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:

Single allocations:	kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)

Array allocations:	kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)

Flex array allocations:	kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)

(where TYPE may also be *VAR)

The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

<title>scsi: Change the return type of the .queuecommand() callback</title>

<content type='text'>
In clang version 21.1 and later the -Wimplicit-enum-enum-cast warning
option has been introduced. This warning is enabled by default and can
be used to catch .queuecommand() implementations that return another
value than 0 or one of the SCSI_MLQUEUE_* constants. Hence this patch
that changes the return type of the .queuecommand() implementations from
'int' into 'enum scsi_qc_status'. No functionality has been changed.

aac_queuecommand() is a scsi_host_template.queuecommand()
implementation.  Any value returned by this function other than one of
the following values is translated into SCSI_MLQUEUE_HOST_BUSY:

* 0
* SCSI_MLQUEUE_HOST_BUSY
* SCSI_MLQUEUE_DEVICE_BUSY
* SCSI_MLQUEUE_EH_RETRY
* SCSI_MLQUEUE_TARGET_BUSY

Improve readability of aac_queuecommand() by returning
SCSI_MLQUEUE_HOST_BUSY instead of FAILED.

Instances are passed struct block_device *bdev argument; the only thing
it is used for (if it's used in the first place) is bdev-&gt;bd_disk.
Might as well pass that in the first place...

Both helpers are reading the partition table of the disk specified
by block_device of some partition on it; result depends only upon
the disk in question, so we might as well pass the struct gendisk
instead.

<title>scsi: Constify struct pci_error_handlers</title>

'struct pci_error_handlers' are not modified in these drivers.

Constifying these structures moves some data to a read-only section, so
increase overall security, especially when the structure holds some
function pointers.

On a x86_64, with allmodconfig, as an example:
Before:
======
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
  39049	   6429	    112	  45590	   b216	drivers/scsi/aacraid/linit.o

After:
=====
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
  39113	   6365	    112	  45590	   b216	drivers/scsi/aacraid/linit.o

<title>scsi: Convert SCSI drivers to .sdev_configure()</title>

<content type='text'>
The only difference between the .sdev_configure() and .slave_configure()
methods is that the former accepts an additional 'limits' argument.
Convert all SCSI drivers that define a .slave_configure() method to
.sdev_configure(). This patch prepares for removing the
.slave_configure() method. No functionality has been changed.

This reverts commit 9dc704dcc09eae7d21b5da0615eb2ed79278f63e.

Several reports have been made indicating that this commit caused
hangs. Numerous attempts at root causing and fixing the issue have
been unsuccessful so let's revert for now.

Fix the I/O hang that arises because of the MSIx vector not having a mapped
online CPU upon receiving completion.

SCSI cmds take the blk_mq route, which is setup during init. Reserved cmds
fetch the vector_no from mq_map after init is complete. Before init, they
have to use 0 - as per the norm.
