* netxen: drop redudant spinlockDhananjay Phadke2007-07-301-4/+0
| | | | | | | | | | Some leftover code that makes use of adapter->lock in tx_timeout function, which resets the interface under this lock. In close() when the workqueue is flushed, prints the warning about sleeping with interrupts disabled (when spinlock debug is enabled). The lock was required with private netxen IOCTLs, which were removed a while ago. Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fully unify all of the DMA ops so that subordinate bus types to the DMA operation providers (such as ebus, isa, of_device) can work transparently. Basically, we just make sure that for every system device we create, the dev->archdata 'iommu' and 'stc' fields are filled in. Then we have two platform variants of the DMA ops, one for SUN4U which actually programs the real hardware, and one for SUN4V which makes hypervisor calls. This also fixes the crashes in parport_pc on sparc64, reported by Meelis Roos. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
| * [VIDEO]: Fix OOPS in all SBUS framebuffer drivers.David S. Miller2007-07-308-624/+567
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | All of these drivers use a silly: struct all_info { struct fb_info info; struct foo_par par; }; struct all_info *all = kzalloc(sizeof(*all), GFP_KERNEL); all->info.par = &all->par; etc. etc. code sequence, basically replicating the provided framebuffer_alloc()/framebuffer_release(), and doing it badly. Not only is this massive code duplication, it also caused a bug in that we weren't setting the fb_info->device pointer which results in an OOPS when fb_is_primary_device() runs. Fix all of this by using framebuffer_{alloc,release}() and passing in "&of_device->dev" as the device pointer. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

| * [SCSI] aacraid: fix Sunrise Lake reset handlingSalyzyn, Mark2007-07-281-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The patch is *much* smaller than the description. I am attempting to answer to those that want to understand an issue that was reported in May this year. If a Sunrise Lake based card that requires an alternate reset mechanism is set up to ignore the commanded IOP_RESET it reports 0x00000010 (IOP_RESET ignored) instead of 0x3803000F (use alternate reset mechanism to reset all cores), and thus the reset platform function decides to switch to IOP_RESET_ALWAYS because the reset platform function parameters indicate that we *need* to reset the card. IOP_RESET_ALWAYS then responds with the 0x3803000F return code, but alas we treat this as an error instead of using the alternate reset mechanism (put a 0x03 into the register offset 0x38). The reset fails, but the fact that the IOP_RESET_ALWAYS command was issued has put the card in a purposeful shutdown state in preparation for the alternate hardware reset to be applied. Yuck. IOP_RESET is ignored in internal production cards, typically to ensure that we catch all adapter lockup issues without the driver progressing further, so this would not appear to be a field issue and thus this patch was destined to be only in the internal Adaptec source tree. IOP_RESET_ALWAYS is reserved for kexec/kdump/FirmwareUpdate/AutomatedTestFrames so we did not function as expected in any case. Also in the past we have had OEMs specifically request that cards not be resetable after a BlinkLED/FirmwareAssert for one reason or another and To head off the possibility that the Sunrise Lake based cards would suffer a similar fate, we propose the enclosed fix. Yinghai Lu of SUN had a pre-production card with IOP_RESET disabled when he reported an issue to the linux kernel list back in May regarding a kexec problem resulting from this reset being ignore. His fix was to update the Firmware to one that did not ignore the IOP_RESET. Previous kernels did not attempt to reset the adapter and that is why it surfaced as a regression in his hands. The current list of aacraid based cards that use Sunrise Lake: 9005:0285:9005:02b5 Adaptec 5445 9005:0285:9005:02b6 Adaptec 5805 9005:0285:9005:02b7 Adaptec 5085 9005:0285:9005:02c3 Adaptec 51205 9005:0285:9005:02c4 Adaptec 51605 9005:0285:9005:02ce Adaptec 51245 9005:0285:9005:02cf Adaptec 51645 9005:0285:9005:02d0 Adaptec 52445 9005:0285:9005:02d1 Adaptec 5405 9005:0285:9005:02b8 ICP ICP5445SL 9005:0285:9005:02b9 ICP ICP5085SL 9005:0285:9005:02ba ICP ICP5805SL 9005:0285:9005:02c5 ICP ICP5125SL 9005:0285:9005:02c6 ICP ICP5165SL 9005:0285:108e:7aac SUN STK RAID REM 9005:0285:108e:0286 SUN STK RAID INT 9005:0285:108e:0287 SUN STK RAID EXT 9005:0285:108e:7aae SUN STK RAID EM All of these are publicly released with IOP_RESET enabled.

| * [SCSI] aacraid: add SCSI SYNCHONIZE_CACHE range checkingSalyzyn, Mark2007-07-281-8/+55
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Customer running an application that issues SYNCHRONIZE_CACHE calls directly noticed the broad stroke of the current implementation in the aacraid driver resulting in multiple applications feeding I/O to the storage causing the issuing application to stall for long periods of time. By only waiting for the current WRITE commands, rather than all commands, to complete; and those that are in range of the SYNCHRONIZE_CACHE call that would associate more tightly with the issuing application before telling the Firmware to flush it's dirty cache, we managed to reduce the stalling. The Firmware itself still flushes all the dirty cache associated with the array ignoring the range, it just does so in a more timely manner.

| * [SCSI] aic79xx, aic7xxx: Fix incorrect width settingJames Bottomley2007-07-272-13/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Wide transfers are required for every setting of PPR apart from QAS. It seems the DV code starts at the minimum, which turns on DT and Wide regardless of the setting of max_width. Redo the PPR and period setting routines to respect max_width (i.e. start at period = 10 if it is zero).

| * [SCSI] qla2xxx: fix to honor ignored parameters in sysfs attributesSeokmann Ju2007-07-273-24/+38
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a patch to fix 'segmentation fault' issue which was initiated by Richard Lary <rlary@us.ibm.com>. Thanks again Richard. - on following sysfs attritute function, changes have made so that both count and offset input parameters are honored by the functions. = qla2x00_sysfs_read_nvram() = qla2x00_sysfs_read_vpd() - made changes so that NVRAM data to be cached to minimize H/W accesses during agent querying of the driver's.

| * [SCSI] aacraid: draw line in sand, sundry cleanup and version updateSalyzyn, Mark2007-07-275-10/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Minor unimportant cuttings from the floor bundled in with a version stamp update. Only controversial change is the dropping of Alan Cox copyright on the nark.c module since that file has no code written by him in it.

| * [SCSI] iscsi_tcp: Turn off bounce buffersMike Christie2007-07-271-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It was found by LSI that on setups with large amounts of memory we were bouncing buffers when we did not need to. If the iscsi tcp code touches the data buffer (or a helper does), it will kmap the buffer. iscsi_tcp also does not interact with hardware, so it does not have any hw dma restrictions. This patch sets the bounce buffer settings for our device queue so buffers should not be bounced because of a driver limit.

| * [SCSI] libiscsi: fix cmd seqeunce number checkingMike Christie2007-07-272-21/+28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We should not be checking the cmd windown for just handling r2t responses. And if the window closes in on us, always have scsi-ml requeue the command from our queuecommand function.
