2008-10-09block: unify request timeout handlingJens Axboe
Right now SCSI and others do their own command timeout handling. Move those bits to the block layer. Instead of having a timer per command, we try to be a bit more clever and simply have one per-queue. This avoids the overhead of having to tear down and setup a timer for each command, so it will result in a lot less timer fiddling.

2008-05-08[SCSI] gdth: fix Error: Driver 'gdth' is already registered, aborting...James Bottomley
This message appears on modprobe/rmmod/modprobe of the driver. It's caused because if the driver has no instances, it returns an error from gdth_init, which causes the module to fail to load. Unfortunately, the module's pci driver is still registered at this point. Fix this by making gdth behave like a modern driver and insert even if it doesn't find any instances (in case of hot plug or software driven binding).

2008-05-08[SCSI] gdth: fix timer handlingJames Bottomley
The global timer handling is problematic in that if someone unbinds a PCI gdth instance, the BUG_ON() in the timer will cause a panic. Fix this by making the timer start and stop depending on whether there are instances present. This should also permit binding and unbinding to work.

2008-05-02[SCSI] Let scsi_cmnd->cmnd use request->cmd bufferBoaz Harrosh
- struct scsi_cmnd had a 16 bytes command buffer of its own. This is an unnecessary duplication and copy of request's cmd. It is probably left overs from the time that scsi_cmnd could function without a request attached. So clean that up. - Once above is done, few places, apart from scsi-ml, needed adjustments due to changing the data type of scsi_cmnd->cmnd. - Lots of drivers still use MAX_COMMAND_SIZE. So I have left that #define but equate it to BLK_MAX_CDB. The way I see it and is reflected in the patch below is. MAX_COMMAND_SIZE - means: The longest fixed-length (*) SCSI CDB as per the SCSI standard and is not related to the implementation. BLK_MAX_CDB. - The allocated space at the request level - I have audit all ISA drivers and made sure none use ->cmnd in a DMA Operation. Same audit was done by Andi Kleen. (*)fixed-length here means commands that their size can be determined by their opcode and the CDB does not carry a length specifier, (unlike the VARIABLE_LENGTH_CMD(0x7f) command). This is actually not exactly true and the SCSI standard also defines extended commands and vendor specific commands that can be bigger than 16 bytes. The kernel will support these using the same infrastructure used for VARLEN CDB's. So in effect MAX_COMMAND_SIZE means the maximum size command scsi-ml supports without specifying a cmd_len by ULD's Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@HansenPartnership.com>

2008-02-27[SCSI] gdth: fix to internal commands executionBoaz Harrosh
The recent patch named: [SCSI] gdth: !use_sg cleanup and use of scsi accessors has done a bad job in handling internal commands issued by gdth_execute(). Internal commands are issued with device gdth_cmd_str ready made directly to the card, without any mapping or translations of scsi commands. So here I added a gdth_cmd_str pointer to the gdth_cmndinfo private structure which is then copied directly to host. following this patch is a cleanup that removes the home cooked accessors and reverts them to regular scsi_cmnd accessors. Since they are not used anymore. After review maybe the 2 patches should be squashed together.

More overloaded members from SCp and scsi_cmnd will be moved in a later patch (For easy review). - Split up gdth_queuecommand to an additional internal_function.

Recent alterations to the gdth_fill_raw_cmd() path no longer set the sg_ranz field for zero transfer commands. However, this field is used lower down in the function to initialise ha->cmd_len to the size of the firmware packet. If this uninitialised field contains a bogus value, ha->cmd_len can become much larger than the actual firmware packet and end up oopsing in gdth_copy_cmd() as it tries to copy this huge packet to the device (usually because it runs into an unallocated page). The fix is to initialise the sg_ranz field to zero at the start of gdth_fill_raw_cmd().

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.

2006-06-10[SCSI] remove scsi_request infrastructureChristoph Hellwig
With Achim patch the last user (gdth) is switched away from scsi_request so we an kill it now. Also disables some code in i2o_scsi that was broken since the sg driver stopped using scsi_requests.

2006-06-10[SCSI] remove the scsi_request interface from the gdth driverLeubner, Achim
Initial pass at converting the gdth driver away from the scsi_request interface so that the request interface can be removed post 2.6.18 without breaking gdth.

2006-06-06[SCSI] fix up request buffer reference in various scsi driversChristoph Hellwig
Various scsi drivers use scsi_cmnd.buffer and scsi_cmnd.bufflen in their queuecommand functions. Those fields are internal storage for the midlayer only and are used to restore the original payload after request_buffer and request_bufflen have been overwritten for EH. Using the buffer and bufflen fields means they do very broken things in error handling. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>
