[PATCH] libata: implement dummy port
Implement dummy port which can be requested by setting appropriate bit
in probe_ent->dummy_port_mask. The dummy port is used as placeholder
for stolen legacy port. This allows libata to guarantee that
index_of(ap) == ap->port_no == actual_device_port_no, and thus to
remove error-prone ap->hard_port_no.
As it's used only when one port of a legacy controller is reserved by
some other entity (e.g. IDE), the focus is on keeping the added *code*
complexity at minimum, so dummy port allocates all libata core
resources and acts as a normal port. It just has all dummy port_ops.
This patch only implements dummy port. The following patch will make
libata use it for stolen legacy ports.

Some of this can be tidied further later on, in particular all the

the special legacy IDE rules in the PCI spec.
Longer term Jeff also wants to move the request_irq/free_irq out of core
which will make this even cleaner.
tj: folded in three followup patches - ata_piix-fix, broken-arch-fix

* ata_piix-fix: fix build failure due to host_set->next removal
* broken-arch-fix: add missing include/asm-*/libata-portmap.h
* fix-new-legacy-handling:
* In ata_pci_init_legacy_port(), probe_num was incorrectly
incremented during initialization of the secondary port and
probe_ent->n_ports was incorrectly fixed to 1.
* Both legacy ports ended up having the same hard_port_no.
* When printing port information, both legacy ports printed
the first irq.

[PATCH] libata: Add support for SATA attachment to SAS adapters
The following patch enhances libata to allow SAS device drivers
to utilize libata to talk to SATA devices. It introduces some
new APIs which allow libata to be used without allocating a
virtual scsi host.
New APIs:
ata_sas_port_alloc - Allocate an ata_port
ata_sas_port_init - Initialize an ata_port (probe device, etc)
ata_sas_port_destroy - Free an ata_port allocated by ata_sas_port_alloc
ata_sas_slave_configure - configure scsi device
ata_sas_queuecmd - queue a scsi command, similar to ata_scsi_queuecomand
These new APIs can be used either directly by a SAS LLDD or could be used
by the SAS transport class.
Possible usage for a SAS LLDD would be:
scsi_scan_host
target_alloc
ata_sas_port_alloc
slave_alloc
ata_sas_port_init
slave_configure
ata_sas_slave_configure
Commands received by the LLDD for SATA devices would call ata_sas_queuecmd.
Device teardown would occur with:
slave_destroy
port_disable
target_destroy
ata_sas_port_destroy

[PATCH] SCX200_ACB: eliminate spurious timeout errors
While busy-waiting for completion, check the hardware after scheduling;
don't schedule and then immediately check the _timeout_. If the yield()
took a long time (as it does on my OLPC prototype board when it's busy),
we'd report a timeout even though the hardware was now ready.
This fixes it, and also switches the yield() for a cond_resched() because
we don't actually want to be _that_ nice about it. I see nice
tightly-packed SMBus transactions now, rather than waiting for milliseconds
between successive phases.
Actually, we shouldn't be busy-waiting here at all. We should be using
interrupts. That's an exercise for another day though.

udf_discard_prealloc() already has this code to short-circuit the discard

if (UDF_I_ALLOCTYPE(inode) == ICBTAG_FLAG_AD_IN_ICB ||
inode->i_size == UDF_I_LENEXTENTS(inode))

return;
}
so if we initialize UDF_I_LENEXTENTS(inode) = 0 earlier in udf_new_inode,
we won't try to free the (not) preallocated blocks, since this will match
the i_size = 0 set when the inode was initialized.

Some devices like PNP0A03 have 0xd00-0xffff and 0x0-0xcf7 as IO producer
resources.
Before correcting "address resources" parsing, it was seen as memory and was
harmless, because nobody tried to reserve this memory range as it should be
IO.
With the correction it become IO resources, and make failed all others device
that want to register IO in this range and use pnp layer (like a ISA sound
card).

[PATCH] pSeries: hvsi char driver janitorial cleanup
A set of tty line discipline cleanup patches were introduced before the
dawn of time, in kernel version 2.4.21. This patch performs that cleanup
for the hvsi driver.
The hvsi driver is used only on IBM pSeries PowerPC boxes. The driver was
originally written by Hollis Blanchard, who has delegated maintainership to
me. So this my first and maybe only patch in this official new role,
because this driver is otherwise bug-free :-)

and the helpers do this for you."

[PATCH] knfsd: fix race related problem when adding items to and svcrpc auth cache
If we don't find the item we are lookng for, we allocate a new one, and
then grab the lock again and search to see if it has been added while we
did the alloc. If it had been added we need to 'cache_put' the newly
created item that we are never going to use. But as it hasn't been
initialised properly, putting it can cause an oops.
So move the ->init call earlier to that it will always be fully initilised
if we have to put it.

[PATCH] fadvise() make POSIX_FADV_NOREUSE a no-op
The POSIX_FADV_NOREUSE hint means "the application will use this range of the
file a single time". It seems to be intended that the implementation will use
this hint to perform drop-behind of that part of the file when the application
gets around to reading or writing it.
However for reasons which aren't obvious (or sane?) I mapped
POSIX_FADV_NOREUSE onto POSIX_FADV_WILLNEED. ie: it does readahead.
That's daft. So for now, make POSIX_FADV_NOREUSE a no-op.
This is a non-back-compatible change. If someone was using POSIX_FADV_NOREUSE
to perform readahead, they lose. The likelihood is low.
If/when we later implement POSIX_FADV_NOREUSE things will get interesting - to
do it fully we'll need to maintain file offset/length ranges and peform all
sorts of complex tricks, and managing the lifetime of those ranges' data
structures will be interesting..
A sensible implementation would probably ignore the file range and would
simply mark the entire file as needing some form of drop-behind treatment.

Which caused the oops from above.
After adding a barrier gcc creates code without this problem:

402: R_390_PC32DBL _spin_lock+0x2
As a general note, this code of unqueue_me seems a bit fishy. The retry logic
of unqueue_me only works if we can guarantee, that the original value of
q->lock_ptr is always a spinlock (Otherwise we overwrite kernel memory). We
know that q->lock_ptr can change. I dont know what happens with the original
spinlock, as I am not an expert with the futex code.

LAPB_EXTENDED in parms->mode is set.
If bit LAPB_EXTENDED in parms->mode is set and the window size is in the range
of 8 .. 127, the first check "(parms->mode & LAPB_EXTENDED)" results true and
the second check "(parms->window < 1 || parms->window > 127)" results false.
Both checks in conjunction result to false, thus the third check "(parms->window
< 1 || parms->window > 7)" is done by fault.
This third check results true, so that we leave lapb_setparms() by 'goto out_put'.
Seems that this bug doesn't cause any problems, because lapb_setparms() isn't
used to change the default values of LAPB. We are using kernel lapb in our
software project and also change the default parameters of lapb, so we found
this bug"

[PKT_SCHED] RED: Fix overflow in calculation of queue average
Overflow can occur very easily with 32 bits, e.g., with 1 second
us_idle is approx. 2^20, which leaves only 11-Wlog bits for queue
length. Since the EWMA exponent is typically around 9, queue
lengths larger than 2^2 cause overflow. Whether the affected
branch is taken when us_idle is as high as 1 second, depends on
Scell_log, but with rather reasonable configuration Scell_log is
large enough to cause p->Stab to have zero index, which always
results zero shift (typically also few other small indices result
in zero shift).

[LLX]: SOCK_DGRAM interface fixes
The datagram interface of LLC is broken in a couple of ways.
These were discovered when trying to use it to build an out-of-kernel
version of STP.
First it didn't pass the source address of the received packet
in recvfrom(). It needs to copy the source address of received LLC packets
into the socket control block. At the same time fix a security issue
because there was uninitialized data leakage. Every recvfrom call
was just copying out old data.
Second, LLC should not merge multiple packets in one receive call
on datagram sockets. LLC should preserve packet boundaries on
SOCK_DGRAM.
This fix goes against the old historical comments about UNIX98 semantics
but without this fix SOCK_DGRAM is broken and useless. So either ANK's
interpretation was incorect or UNIX98 standard was wrong.
