2007-05-22[SCSI] aacraid: apply commit config for reset_devices flagSalyzyn, Mark
Under some conditions associated with the unclean transition to kdump, the aacraid adapters will view the array as foreign and not export it to prevent access and data manipulation. The solution is to submit a commit configuration to export the devices since this is a expected behavior when transitioning to a kdump kernel. This patch adds the aacraid.reset_devices flag and when either this or the global reset_devices flag is set, ensures that a commit config is issued and extends the startup_timeout if it is set less than 5 minutes.

2007-05-16[SCSI] aacraid: Correct sa platform support. (Was: [Bug 8469] Bad EIP value ↵Salyzyn, Mark
on pentium3 SMP kernel-2.6.21.1) http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8469 As discussed in the bugzilla outlined below, we have an sa based (Mustang) RAID adapter on the system, a Dell PERC2/QC. Affected controllers are HP NetRAID, Adaptec AAC-364, Dell PERC2/QC or Adaptec 5400S. This problem coincides with the introduction of the adapter_comm and adapter_deliver platform functions (Message [PATCH 1/4] aacraid: rework communication support code, January 23 2007, which initially migrated to 2.6.21) The panic occurs with an uninitialized adapter_deliver platform function pointer. The enclosed patch, unmodified as tested by Rainer, solves the problem. Signed-off-by: Mark Salyzyn <aacraid@adaptec.com> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>
2007-05-06[SCSI] aacraid: superfluous adapter reset for IBM 8 series ServeRAID controllersSalyzyn, Mark
The kexec patch introduced a superfluous (and otherwise inert) reset of some adapters. The register can have a hardware default value that has zeros for the undefined interrupts. This patch refines the test of the interrupt enable register to focus on only the interrupts that affect the driver in order to detect if an incomplete shutdown of the Adapter had occurred (kdump).

2007-04-01[SCSI] aacraid: [Fastboot] Panics for AACRAID driver during 'insmod' for ↵Salyzyn, Mark
kexec test. Attached is the patch I feel will address this issue. As an added 'perk' I have also added the code to detect if the controller was previously initialized for interrupted operations by ANY operating system should the reset_devices kernel parameter not be set and we are dealing with a naïve kexec without the addition of this kernel parameter. The reset handler is also improved. Related to reset operations, but not pertinent specifically to this issue, I have also altered the handling somewhat so that we reset the adapter if we feel it is taking too long (three minutes) to start up. We have not unit tested the reset_devices flag propagation to this driver code, nor have we unit tested the check for the interrupted operations under the conditions of a naively issued kexec. We are submitting this modified driver to our Q/A department for integration testing in our current programs. I would appreciate an ACK to this patch should it resolve the issue described in this thread...

Received from Mark Salyzyn, This patch is to resolve a namespace issue that will result from a patch expected in the future that adds a new interface; rationalized as correcting a long term issue where hw_fib, instead of hw_fib_va, refers to the virtual address space and hw_fib_pa refers to the physical address space.

2007-02-14[PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.hTim Schmielau
After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes. There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need anything defined in there. Presumably these includes were once needed for macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the course of cleaning it up. To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble. Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha, arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig, allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all configs in arch/arm/configs on arm. I also checked that no new warnings were introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted by unnecessarily included header files).

2006-10-05IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlersDavid Howells
Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the Linux kernel. The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack space and code to pass it around. On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path (ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()). Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do something different with the variable. On FRV, for instance, the address is maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception handling. Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down through up to twenty or so layers of functions. Consider a USB character device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller. A character device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing. I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386. I've runtested the main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers. I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile with minimal configurations. This will affect all archs. Mostly the changes should be relatively easy. Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one: struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs); And put the old one back at the end: set_irq_regs(old_regs); Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ(). In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary: - update_process_times(user_mode(regs)); - profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs); + update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs())); + profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING); I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself, except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode(). Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers: (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely. The regs pointer is no longer stored in the input_dev struct. (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking. It does something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs pointer or not. (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type irq_handler_t.

2006-09-23[SCSI] aacraid: merge rx and rkt codeMark Haverkamp
Received from Mark Salyzyn: The only real difference between the rkt and rx platform modules is the offset of the message registers. This patch recognizes this similarity and simplifies the driver to reduce it's code footprint and to improve maintainability by reducing the code duplication. Visibly, the 'rkt.c' portion of this patch looks more complicated than it really is. View it as retaining the rkt-only specifics of the interface.

2006-08-19[SCSI] aacraid: Restart adapter on firmware assert (Update 2)Mark Haverkamp
Received from Mark Salyzyn If the adapter should be in a blinkled (Firmware Assert) state when the driver loads, we will perform a warm restart of the Adapter Firmware to see if we can rescue the adapter. Possible causes of a blinkled can occur on some early release motherboard BIOSes, transitory PCI bus problems on embedded systems or non-x86 based architectures, transitory startup failures of early release drives or transitory hardware failures; some of which can bite the adapter later at runtime. Future enhancements will include recovery during runtime. Fixed extra whitespace space issue.

2006-05-20[SCSI] aacraid: adjustable timeoutsMark Haverkamp
Received From Mark Salyzyn Add the ability to adjust for unusual corner case failures. Both of these additional module parameters deal with embedded, non-intel or complicated system scenarios. Aif_timeout can be increased past the default 2 minute timeout to drop application registrations when a system has an unusually high event load resulting from continuing management requests, or simultaneous builds, or sluggish user space as a result of system load. Startup_timeout can be increased past the default 3 minute timeout to drop an adapter initialization for systems that have a very large number of targets, or slow to spin-up targets, or a complicated set of array configurations that extend the time for the firmware to declare that it is operational. This timeout would only have an affect on non-intel based systems, as the (more patient) BIOS would generally be where the startup delay would be dealt with.

New code from the Adaptec driver. Performance enhancement for newer adapters. I hope that this isn't too big for a single patch. I believe that other than the few small cleanups mentioned, that the changes are all related. - Added Variable FIB size negotiation for new adapters. - Added support to maximize scatter gather tables and thus permit requests larger than 64KB/each. - Limit Scatter Gather to 34 elements for ROMB platforms. - aac_printf is only enabled with AAC_QUIRK_34SG - Large FIB ioctl support - some minor cleanup Passes sparse check.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
