2009-10-14[S390] cio: change misleading console logicPeter Oberparleiter
Use cio_is_console() in io_subchannel_probe to indicate that the special handling is console specific. As long as there is no other subchannel for which this might be true, it is misleading to speak of "early devices". Should more of these devices be introduced, a cleanup of all console special handling is in order anyway.

2009-10-14[S390] tape390: Fix request queue handling in block driverMichael Holzheu
When setting a channel attached tape online under Linux 2.6.31, the "vol_id" process from udev hangs in sync_page(): 2 sync_page+144 [0x1dfaac] 3 __wait_on_bit_lock+194 [0x58c23e] 4 __lock_page+116 [0x1df9dc] 5 truncate_inode_pages_range+728 [0x1ed7cc] 6 __blkdev_put+244 [0x25f738] 7 __fput+300 [0x229c4c] 8 filp_close+122 [0x225a3a] The reason for that is an error in the request queue handling. It can happen that we fetch a request, but do not process it further because the number of queued requests exceeds TAPEBLOCK_MIN_REQUEUE. To fix this, we should call blk_peek_request() instead of blk_fetch_request() in the while condition and fetch the request in the loop body afterwards. This bug was introduced with the patch "block: implement and enforce request peek/start/fetch" (9934c8c04561413609d2bc38c6b9f268cba774a4) Signed-off-by: Michael Holzheu <holzheu@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

2009-10-12ARM: force dcache flush if dcache_dirty bit setNitin Gupta
On ARM, update_mmu_cache() does dcache flush for a page only if it has a kernel mapping (page_mapping(page) != NULL). The correct behavior would be to force the flush based on dcache_dirty bit only. One of the cases where present logic would be a problem is when a RAM based block device[1] is used as a swap disk. In this case, we would have in-memory data corruption as shown in steps below: do_swap_page() { - Allocate a new page (if not already in swap cache) - Issue read from swap disk - Block driver issues flush_dcache_page() - flush_dcache_page() simply sets PG_dcache_dirty bit and does not actually issue a flush since this page has no user space mapping yet. - Now, if swap disk is almost full, this newly read page is removed from swap cache and corrsponding swap slot is freed. - Map this page anonymously in user space. - update_mmu_cache() - Since this page does not have kernel mapping (its not in page/swap cache and is mapped anonymously), it does not issue dcache flush even if dcache_dirty bit is set by flush_dcache_page() above. <user now gets stale data since dcache was never flushed> } Same problem exists on mips too. [1] example: - brd (RAM based block device) - ramzswap (RAM based compressed swap device) Signed-off-by: Nitin Gupta <ngupta@vflare.org> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2009-10-12x86: Move pci_iommu_init to rootfs_initcall()David Woodhouse
We want this to happen after the PCI quirks, which are now running at the very end of the fs_initcalls. This works around the BIOS problems which were originally addressed by commit db8be50c4307dac2b37305fc59c8dc0f978d09ea ('USB: Work around BIOS bugs by quiescing USB controllers earlier'), which was reverted in commit d93a8f829fe1d2f3002f2c6ddb553d12db420412.

2009-10-12Run pci_apply_final_quirks() sooner.David Woodhouse
Having this as a device_initcall() means that some real device drivers can actually initialise _before_ the quirks are run, which is wrong. We want it to run _before_ device_initcall(), but _after_ fs_initcall(), since some arch-specific PCI initialisation like pcibios_assign_resources() is done at fs_initcall(). We could use rootfs_initcall() but I actually want to use that for the IOMMU initialisation, which has to come after the quirks, but still before the real devices. So use fs_initcall_sync() instead -- since this is entirely synchronous, it doesn't hurt that it'll escape the synchronisation. Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com>

2009-10-11Revert "USB: Work around BIOS bugs by quiescing USB controllers earlier"Linus Torvalds
This reverts commit db8be50c4307dac2b37305fc59c8dc0f978d09ea, as per http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14374 http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=125446885705223&w=4 We simply can't do the USB handoff at FIXUP_HEADER time, since it will often require us to have valid IO mappings etc. But that in turn requires a whole different approach, not this trivial one-liner. Maybe we could teach all the USB quirk handoff handlers to only do the quirk if the device has all its registers set up (since if it isn't initialized, it's unlikely to be active), but regardless that will need a whole lot more code than just saying "let's do it really early". The proper fix is almost certainly to just leave the legacy IOMMU mappings active until after all devices have been initialized.

Revert commit 575543347b5baed0ca927cb90ba8807396fe9cc9 It caused following issues: - On architectures where ARCH= setting is used to select between 32 and 64 bit this was no longer possible without "make mrproper" - If ARCH was changed then kbuild refused to run "make mrproper" because ARCH had changed - When CROSS_COMPILE was changed people were asked to run "make mrproper" but kbuild refused to run "make mrproper" because CROSS_COMPILE changed. - Spaces in CROSS_COMPILE was not 'supported' - If an non-existing ARCH= was used kbuild could get stuck Lessons learned: . Despite being simple and straghtforward people uses very different approaches when building the kernel. . CROSS_COMPILE is sometimes used for ccache despite cache being only a CC frontend so one would have expected CC to be used for this purpose. . And obviously this was not tested widely enough.
