[SCSI] qla1280: error recovery rewrite
The driver now waits for the scsi commands associated with a
particular error recovery step to be returned to the mid-layer,
and returns the appropriate SUCCESS or FAILED status. Removes
unneeded polling of chip for interrupts.
This patch also bumps the driver version number.

[SCSI] qla2xxx: Conditionally disable automatic queue full tracking.
Changing a lun's queue depth (/sys/block/sdX/device/queue_depth)
isn't sticky when the device is connected via a QLogic fibre
channel adapter.
The QLogic qla2xxx fibre channel driver dynamically adjusts a
lun's queue depth. If a user has a specific need to limit the
number of commands issued to a lun (say a tape drive, or a shared
raid where the total commands issued to all luns is limited at
the controller level, for example) and writes a limiting value to
/sys/block/sdXX/device/queue_depth, the qla2xxx driver will
silently and gradually increase the queue depth back to the
driver limit of ql2xmaxqdepth. While reducing this value (module
parameter) or increasing the interval between ramp ups
(ql2xqfullrampup) offers the potential for a work around it would
be better to have the option of just disabling the dynamic
adjustment of queue depth.

This is clearly a compiler bug, but it's not worth fighting - while the
current stack kernel pointer might be somewhat hard to predict in user

So just drop it, and mumble some incoherent curses at the compiler.

Fix oops on close of hot-unplugged FTDI serial converter
Commit
c45d6320 ("fix reference counting of ftdi_private") stopped
ftdi_sio_port_remove() from directly freeing the port-private data, with
the intention if the port was still open, it would be freed when
ftdi_close() is eventually called and releases the last refcount on the
structure.
That's all very well, but ftdi_sio_port_remove() still contains a call
to usb_set_serial_port_data(port, NULL) -- so by the time we get to
ftdi_close() for the port which was unplugged, it _still_ oopses on
dereferencing that NULL pointer, as it did before (and does in 2.6.29).
The fix is just not to clear the private data in ftdi_sio_port_remove().
Then the refcount is properly reduced to zero when the final kref_put()
happens in ftdi_close().
Remove a bogus comment too, while we're at it. And stop doing things
inside "if (priv)" -- it must _always_ be there.
Based loosely on an earlier patch by Daniel Mack, and suggestions by
Alan Stern.

Fix caller information for warn_slowpath_null
Ian Campbell noticed that since "Eliminate thousands of warnings with
gcc 3.2 build" (commit
57adc4d2dbf968fdbe516359688094eef4d46581) all
WARN_ON()'s currently appear to come from warn_slowpath_null(), eg:
WARNING: at kernel/softirq.c:143 warn_slowpath_null+0x1c/0x20()
because now that warn_slowpath_null() is in the call path, the
__builtin_return_address(0) returns that, rather than the place that
caused the warning.
Fix this by splitting up the warn_slowpath_null/fmt cases differently,
using a common helper function, and getting the return address in the
right place. This also happens to avoid the unnecessary stack usage for
the non-stdargs case, and just generally cleans things up.
Make the function name printout use %pS while at it.

x86: Fix performance regression caused by paravirt_ops on native kernels
Xiaohui Xin and some other folks at Intel have been looking into what's
behind the performance hit of paravirt_ops when running native.
It appears that the hit is entirely due to the paravirtualized
spinlocks introduced by:

| paravirt: introduce a "lock-byte" spinlock implementation
The extra call/return in the spinlock path is somehow
causing an increase in the cycles/instruction of somewhere around 2-7%
(seems to vary quite a lot from test to test). The working theory is
that the CPU's pipeline is getting upset about the
call->call->locked-op->return->return, and seems to be failing to
speculate (though I haven't seen anything definitive about the precise
reasons). This doesn't entirely make sense, because the performance
hit is also visible on unlock and other operations which don't involve
locked instructions. But spinlock operations clearly swamp all the
other pvops operations, even though I can't imagine that they're
nearly as common (there's only a .05% increase in instructions
executed).
If I disable just the pv-spinlock calls, my tests show that pvops is
identical to non-pvops performance on native (my measurements show that
it is actually about .1% faster, but Xiaohui shows a .05% slowdown).
Summary of results, averaging 10 runs of the "mmperf" test, using a
no-pvops build as baseline:
nopv Pv-nospin Pv-spin
CPU cycles 100.00% 99.89% 102.18%
instructions 100.00% 100.10% 100.15%
CPI 100.00% 99.79% 102.03%
cache ref 100.00% 100.84% 100.28%
cache miss 100.00% 90.47% 88.56%
cache miss rate 100.00% 89.72% 88.31%
branches 100.00% 99.93% 100.04%
branch miss 100.00% 103.66% 107.72%
branch miss rt 100.00% 103.73% 107.67%
wallclock 100.00% 99.90% 102.20%
The clear effect here is that the 2% increase in CPI is
directly reflected in the final wallclock time.
(The other interesting effect is that the more ops are
out of line calls via pvops, the lower the cache access
and miss rates. Not too surprising, but it suggests that
the non-pvops kernel is over-inlined. On the flipside,
the branch misses go up correspondingly...)
So, what's the fix?
Paravirt patching turns all the pvops calls into direct calls, so
_spin_lock etc do end up having direct calls. For example, the compiler
generated code for paravirtualized _spin_lock is:
<_spin_lock+0>: mov %gs:0xb4c8,%rax
<_spin_lock+9>: incl 0xffffffffffffe044(%rax)
<_spin_lock+15>: callq *0xffffffff805a5b30
<_spin_lock+22>: retq
The indirect call will get patched to:
<_spin_lock+0>: mov %gs:0xb4c8,%rax
<_spin_lock+9>: incl 0xffffffffffffe044(%rax)
<_spin_lock+15>: callq <__ticket_spin_lock>
<_spin_lock+20>: nop; nop /* or whatever 2-byte nop */
<_spin_lock+22>: retq
One possibility is to inline _spin_lock, etc, when building an
optimised kernel (ie, when there's no spinlock/preempt
instrumentation/debugging enabled). That will remove the outer
call/return pair, returning the instruction stream to a single
call/return, which will presumably execute the same as the non-pvops
case. The downsides arel 1) it will replicate the
preempt_disable/enable code at eack lock/unlock callsite; this code is
fairly small, but not nothing; and 2) the spinlock definitions are
already a very heavily tangled mass of #ifdefs and other preprocessor
magic, and making any changes will be non-trivial.
The other obvious answer is to disable pv-spinlocks. Making them a
separate config option is fairly easy, and it would be trivial to
enable them only when Xen is enabled (as the only non-default user).
But it doesn't really address the common case of a distro build which
is going to have Xen support enabled, and leaves the open question of
whether the native performance cost of pv-spinlocks is worth the
performance improvement on a loaded Xen system (10% saving of overall
system CPU when guests block rather than spin). Still it is a
reasonable short-term workaround.

The same can happen for iscsi when transitioning from logged in

This patch converts iscsi and fc's transitions back to use DID_IMM_RETRY

The memset(0) is bogus since the 'mode' and 'ptmxmode' options are
non-zero by default. parse_mount_options() restores options to default
anyway and can properly deal with NULL mount options.
So in devpts_get_sb() remove memset(0) and call parse_mount_options() even

ext4: Fix race in ext4_inode_info.i_cached_extent
If two CPU's simultaneously call ext4_ext_get_blocks() at the same

the wrong location on disk to be read or written to, including
potentially causing the corruption of the block group descriptors
and/or inode table.
This bug has been in the ext4 code since almost the very beginning of
ext4's development. Fortunately once the data is stored in the page
cache cache, ext4_get_blocks() doesn't need to be called, so trying to
replicate this problem to the point where we could identify its root

powerpc: Fix PCI ROM access
A couple of issues crept in since about 2.6.27 related to accessing PCI
device ROMs on various powerpc machines.
First, historically, we don't allocate the ROM resource in the resource
tree. I'm not entirely certain of why, I susepct they often contained
garbage on x86 but it's hard to tell. This causes the current generic
code to always call pci_assign_resource() when trying to access the said
ROM from sysfs, which will try to re-assign some new address regardless
of what the ROM BAR was already set to at boot time. This can be a
problem on hypervisor platforms like pSeries where we aren't supposed
to move PCI devices around (and in fact probably can't).
Second, our code that generates the PCI tree from the OF device-tree
(instead of doing config space probing) which we mostly use on pseries
at the moment, didn't set the (new) flag IORESOURCE_SIZEALIGN on any
resource. That means that any attempt at re-assigning such a resource
with pci_assign_resource() would fail due to resource_alignment()
returning 0.
This fixes this by doing these two things:
- The code that calculates resource flags based on the OF device-node
is improved to set IORESOURCE_SIZEALIGN on any valid BAR, and while at
it also set IORESOURCE_READONLY for ROMs since we were lacking that too
- We now allocate ROM resources as part of the resource tree. However
to limit the chances of nasty conflicts due to busted firmwares, we
only do it on the second pass of our two-passes allocation scheme,
so that all valid and enabled BARs get precedence.
This brings pSeries back the ability to access PCI ROMs via sysfs (and
thus initialize various video cards from X etc...).
