2009-01-08fix similar typos to successfullColy Li
When I review ocfs2 code, find there are 2 typos to "successfull". After doing grep "successfull " in kernel tree, 22 typos found totally -- great minds always think alike :) This patch fixes all the similar typos. Thanks for Randy's ack and comments.

2009-01-04qeth: avoid crash in case of layer mismatch for VSWITCHUrsula Braun
For z/VM GuestLAN or VSWITCH devices the transport layer is configured in z/VM. The layer2 attribute of a participating Linux device has to match the z/VM definition. In case of a mismatch Linux currently crashes in qeth recovery due to a reference to the not yet existing net_device. Solution: add a check for existence of net_device and add a message pointing to the mismatch of layer definitions in Linux and z/VM.

2008-12-30kvm-s390: implement config_changed for virtio on s390Christian Borntraeger
This patch implements config_changed for the s390 virtio transport. We use the least significant bit of the interrupt parameter field to decide, if this interrupt should call the virtio virtqueue callback or the config_changed callback. This method is compatible with old host and guest code. Old 64 bit guests will not check the bit and trigger a harmless additional vring_interrupt call. Old host code will never set this bit, this is also safe. This patch also takes care of a potential future 31 bit virtio transport for s390. On 31 bit _LC_PFAULT_INTPARM and __LC_EXT_PARAMS are identical. We exploit the alignment of the token and fold the change bit into the lsb of the token itself.

2008-12-29[SCSI] zfcp: Remove unnecessary warning messageChristof Schmitt
Remove a message that was emitted for a port that could not initially be opened. This is a rare case when the port discovery hits an initiator port and only confuses the user with an initator port logged in the message. Remove the whole special case: The failed "open port" request triggers required follow-up actions anyway.

Add the support to send CT and ELS requests as unchained FSF requests. This is required for older hardware and was somehow omitted during the cleanup of the FSF layer. The req_count and resp_count attributes are unused, so remove them instead of adding a special case for setting them. Also add debug data and a warning, when the ct request hits a limit.

2008-12-25[S390] cio: introduce cio_commit_configSebastian Ott
To change the configuration of a subchannel we alter the modifiable bits of the subchannel's schib field and issue a modify subchannel. There can be the case that not all changes were applied -or worse- quietly overwritten by the hardware. With the next store subchannel we obtain the current state of the hardware but lose our target configuration. With this patch we introduce a subchannel_config structure which contains the target subchannel configuration. Additionally the msch wrapper cio_modify is replaced with cio_commit_config which copies the desired changes to a temporary schib. msch is then called with the temporary schib. This schib is only written back to the subchannel if all changes were applied. Signed-off-by: Sebastian Ott <sebott@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
