2005-09-13[PATCH] cciss: One Button Disaster Recovery supportMike Miller1-12/+29
This patch adds support for "One Button Disaster Recovery" devices to the cciss driver. (OBDR devices are tape drives which can pretend to be cd-rom devices temporarily. Once booted the device can be reverted to a tape drive and data recovery operations can be automatically begun.) This is an enhancement request by a vendor/partner working on One Button Disaster Recovery. Signed-off-by: Stephen M.

2005-09-13[PATCH] cciss: fix for DMA brokenessMike Miller1-2/+6
The CCISS driver seems to loose track of DMA mappings created by it's fill_cmd() routine. Neither callers of this routine are extracting the DMA address created in order to do the unmap. Instead, they simply try to unmap 0x0. It's easy to see this problem on an x86_64 system when using the "swiotlb=force" boot option. In this case, the driver is leaking resources of the swiotlb and not causing a sync of the bounce buffer.

2005-09-13[PATCH] cciss: direct lookup for command completionsMike Miller4-7/+73
This patch changes the way we complete commands. In the old method when we got a completion we searched our command list from the top until we find it. This method uses a tag associated with each command (not SCSI command tagging) to index us directly to the completed command. This helps performance.

2005-09-13[PATCH] cciss: new disk register/deregister routinesMike Miller2-190/+333
This patch removes a couple of functions dealing with configuration and replaces them with new functions. This implementation fixes some bugs associated with the ACUXE. It also allows a logical volume to be removed from the middle without deleting all volumes behind it. If a user has 5 logical volumes and decides he wants to reconfigure volume number 3, he can now do that without removing volumes 4 & 5 first. This code has been tested in our labs against all application software.

2005-09-13[PATCH] cciss: busy_initializing flagMike Miller2-0/+9
This patch adds a flag called busy_initializing.

This patch adds new PCI and subsystem ID's that finally made the spec. It also include a name change for one controller. I know there's a lot of duplicat names but the fw folks wanted this for the different implementations.

2005-09-13[PATCH] reiserfs: use mark_inode_dirty instead of reiserfs_update_sdChris Mason2-14/+13
reiserfs should use mark_inode_dirty during reiserfs_file_write and reiserfs_commit_write. This makes sure the inode is properly flagged as dirty, which is used during O_SYNC to decide when to trigger log commits. This patch also removes the O_SYNC check from reiserfs_commit_write, since that gets dealt with properly at higher layers once we start using mark_inode_dirty.

2005-09-13[PATCH] set_current_state() commentaryAndrew Morton1-0/+11
Explain the mysteries of set_current_state(). Quoth Linus: The scheduler itself never needs the memory barrier at all. The barrier is needed only if the user itself ends up testing some other thing afterwards, ie if you have set_process_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE); if (still_need_to_sleep()) schedule(); then the "still_need_to_sleep()" thing may test flags and wakeup events, and then you _may_ want to (and often do) make sure that the write of TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE is serialized wrt the reads of any wakeup data (since the wakeup may have happened on another CPU). So the comment is somewhat wrong. We don't really _care_ whether the state propagates out to other CPU's since all of our actions are purely local, and there is nothing we do that is conditional on any other CPU: we're going to sleep unconditionally, and the scheduler only cares about _our_ state, not about somebody elses state.

2005-09-13[PATCH] open returns ENFILE but creates file anywayPeter Staubach1-42/+56
When open(O_CREAT) is called and the error, ENFILE, is returned, the file may be created anyway. This is counter intuitive, against the SUS V3 specification, and may cause applications to misbehave if they are not coded correctly to handle this semantic. The SUS V3 specification explicitly states "No files shall be created or modified if the function returns -1.". The error, ENFILE, is used to indicate the system wide open file table is full and no more file structs can be allocated. This is due to an ordering problem. The entry in the directory is created before the file struct is allocated. If the allocation for the file struct fails, then the system call must return an error, but the directory entry was already created and can not be safely removed. The solution to this situation is relatively easy. The file struct should be allocated before the directory entry is created. If the allocation fails, then the error can be returned directly. If the creation of the directory entry fails, then the file struct can be easily freed.

Discard *.exit.text sections on runtime. We cannot do this on link time because of the way BUG macros are implemented. If "__exit function" calls one of those macros, __bug_table section will reference this function.

2005-09-13Fix up more strange byte writes to the PCI_ROM_ADDRESS config wordLinus Torvalds2-2/+2
It's a dword thing, and the value we write is a dword. Doing a byte write to it is nonsensical, and writes only the low byte, which only contains the enable bit. So we enable a nonsensical address (usually zero), which causes the controller no end of problems. Trivial fix, but nasty to find. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2005-09-13[NETROM]: Implement G8PZT Circuit reset for NET/ROMRalf Baechle6-16/+69
NET/ROM is lacking a connection reset like TCP's RST flag which at times may result in a connecting having to slowly timing out instead of just being reset. An earlier attempt to reset the connection by sending a NR_CONNACK | NR_CHOKE_FLAG transport was inacceptable as it did result in crashes of BPQ systems. An alternative approach of introducing a new transport type 7 (NR_RESET) has be implemented several years ago in Paula Jayne Dowie G8PZT's Xrouter. Implement NR_RESET for Linux's NET/ROM but like any messing with the state engine consider this experimental for now and thus control it by a sysctl (net.netrom.reset) which for the time being defaults to off.
