/sys/bus/pci/drivers/megaraid_sas/dbg_lvl defaults to being world-writable, which seems bad (letting any user affect kernel driver behavior and logging level).

2008-08-16[SCSI] qla2xxx: Explicitly tear-down vports during PCI remove_one().Andrew Vasquez
During internal testing, we've seen issues (hangs) with the 'deferred' vport tear-down-processing typically accompanied with the fc_remove_host() call. This is due to the current implementation's back-end vport handling being performed by the physical-HA's DPC thread where premature shutdown could lead to latent vport requests without a processor. This should also address a problem reported by Gal Rosen (http://marc.info/?l=linux-scsi&m=121731664417358&w=2) where the driver would attempt to awaken a previously torn-down DPC thread from interrupt context by implicitly calling wake_up_process() rather than the driver's qla2xxx_wake_dpc() helper. Rather, than reshuffle the remove_one() device-removal code, during unload, depend on the driver's timer to wake-up the DPC process, by limiting wake-ups based on an 'unloading' flag.

2008-08-16[SCSI] qla2xxx: Correct synchronization of software/firmware fcport states.Andrew Vasquez
Greg Wettstein (greg@enjellic.com) noted: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.scsi/43409 on a reboot of a previously recognized SCST target, the initiator driver would be unable to re-recognize the device as a target. It turns out that prior to the SCST software reloading and returning it's "target-capable" abilities in the PRLI payload, the HBA would be re-initialized as an initiator-only type port. Since initiators typically classify themselves as an FCP-2 capable device, both software and firmware do not perform an explicit logout during port-loss. Unfortunately, as can be seen by the failure case, when the port (now target-capable) returns, firmware performs an ADISC without a follow-on PRLI, leaving stale 'initiator-only' data in the firmware's port database. Correct the discrepancy by performing the explicit logout during the transport's request to terminate-rport-io, thus synchronizing port states and ensuring a follow-on PRLI is performed.

2008-08-15loopback: Drop obsolete ip_summed settingHerbert Xu
Now that the network stack can handle inbound packets with partial checksums, we should no longer clobber the ip_summed field in the loopback driver. This is because CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY implies that the checksum field is actually valid which is not true for loopback packets since it's only partial (and thus complemented). This allows packets from lo to then be SNATed to an external source while still preserving the checksum's validity. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

Ethtool stats are 64-bits in length. net_device_stats members are unsigned long types. When gathering information for a get_ethtool_stats call, the driver will call a driver-private, inlined get_stat64() function, which returns an unsigned long value. This call will inadvertently mask off the upper 32-bits of a stat on 32-bit machines. This patch defines a new get_estat() inline function and modifies the ESTAT_ADD() macro to use it.

2008-08-15tg3: Fix firmware event timeoutsMatt Carlson
The git commit 7c5026aa9b81dd45df8d3f4e0be73e485976a8b6 ("tg3: Add link state reporting to UMP firmware") introduced code that waits for previous firmware events to be serviced before attempting to submit a new event. Unfortunately that patch contained a bug that cause the driver to wait 2.5 seconds, rather than 2.5 milliseconds as intended. This patch fixes that bug. This bug revealed that not all firmware versions service driver events though. Since we do not know which versions of the firmware do and don't service these events, the driver needs some way to minimize the effects of the delay. This patch solves the problem by recording a jiffies timestamp when it submits an event to the hardware. If the jiffies counter shows that 2.5 milliseconds have already passed, a wait is not needed and the driver can proceed to submit a new event.

2008-08-15spi: bugfix spi_add_device() with duplicate chipselectsDavid Brownell
When reviewing a recent patch I noticed a potential trouble spot in the registration of new SPI devices. The SPI master driver is told to set the device up before adding it to the driver model, so that it's always properly set up when probe() is called. (This is important, because in the case of inverted chipselects, this device can make the bus misbehave until it's properly deselected. It's got to be set up even if no driver binds to the device.) The trouble spot is that it doesn't first verify that no other device has been added using that chipselect. If such a device has been added, its configuration gets trashed. (Fortunately this has not been a common error!) The fix here adds an explicit check, and a mutex to protect the relevant critical region.

2008-08-15abituguru3: prefer DMI probing to manual probingAlistair John Strachan
Previously the driver was only using DMI to prevent smbus probing on non-Abit motherboards. However, since the manual probing method is brittle and prone to failure on some Abit motherboards (esp. the Abit IP35 Pro) it is better to use DMI to also read the board name and then decide whether or not to probe the bus. At the moment, we do not have a list of valid DMI name strings to use for existing and supported motherboards. This patch only implements DMI probing for the IP35 Pro. For motherboards that can not yet use DMI probing, a warning will be printed to the kernel log asking those users to email me their dmidecode output. The existing manual probing mechanism will be used if CONFIG_DMI is not enabled, if DMI probing fails (for DMI-unsupported motherboards), or if DMI probing fails and the "force" option is set (for DMI-supported motherboards). Ideally in the longer term this manual probing method would be removed. This patch should be safe to apply as it does not change the probing behaviour for most of the supported motherboards, just the IP35 Pro, which already has regressions filed against it in 2.6.26.
