2008-01-23libata: factor out ata_pci_activate_sff_host() from ata_pci_one()Tejun Heo
Factor out ata_pci_activate_sff_host() from ata_pci_one(). This does about the same thing as ata_host_activate() but needs to be separate because SFF controllers use different and multiple IRQs in legacy mode. This will be used to make SFF LLD initialization more flexible. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

2008-01-23libata: make qc->nbytes include extra buffersTejun Heo
qc->nbytes didn't use to include extra buffers setup by libata core layer and my be odd. This patch makes qc->nbytes include any extra buffers setup by libata core layer and guaranteed to be aligned on 4 byte boundary. This value is to be used to program the host controller. As this represents the actual length of buffer available to the controller and the controller must be able to deal with short transfers for ATAPI commands which can transfer variable length, this shouldn't break any controllers while making problems like rounding-down and controllers choking up on odd transfer bytes much less likely. The unmodified value is stored in new field qc->raw_nbytes. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
2008-01-23libata: convert to chained sgTejun Heo
libata used private sg iterator to handle padding sg. Now that sg can be chained, padding can be handled using standard sg ops. Convert to chained sg. * s/qc->__sg/qc->sg/ * s/qc->pad_sgent/qc->extra_sg[]/. Because chaining consumes one sg entry. There need to be two extra sg entries. The renaming is also for future addition of other extra sg entries. * Padding setup is moved into ata_sg_setup_extra() which is organized in a way that future addition of other extra sg entries is easy. * qc->orig_n_elem is unused and removed. * qc->n_elem now contains the number of sg entries that LLDs should map. qc->mapped_n_elem is added to carry the original number of mapped sgs for unmapping. * The last sg of the original sg list is used to chain to extra sg list. The original last sg is pointed to by qc->last_sg and the content is stored in qc->saved_last_sg. It's restored during ata_sg_clean(). * All sg walking code has been updated. Unnecessary assertions and checks for conditions the core layer already guarantees are removed.

With atapi_request_sense() converted to use sg, there's no user of non-sg interface. Kill non-sg interface. * ATA_QCFLAG_SINGLE and ATA_QCFLAG_SG are removed. ATA_QCFLAG_DMAMAP is used instead. (this way no LLD change is necessary) * qc->buf_virt is removed. * ata_sg_init_one() and ata_sg_setup_one() are removed.

2008-01-23libata: update ->data_xfer hook for ATAPITejun Heo
Depending on how many bytes are transferred as a unit, PIO data transfer may consume more bytes than requested. Knowing how much data is consumed is necessary to determine how much is left for draining. This patch update ->data_xfer such that it returns the number of consumed bytes.

2008-01-23libata: reimplement ata_acpi_cbl_80wire() using ata_acpi_gtm_xfermask()Tejun Heo
Reimplement ata_acpi_cbl_80wire() using ata_acpi_gtm_xfermask() and while at it relocate the function below ata_acpi_gtm_xfermask(). New ata_acpi_cbl_80wire() implementation takes @gtm, in both pata_via and pata_amd, use the initial GTM value. Both are trying to peek initial BIOS configuration, so using initial caching value makes sense. This fixes ACPI part of cable detection in pata_amd which previously always returned 0 because configuring PIO0 during reset clears DMA configuration.

2008-01-23libata: separate out ata_acpi_gtm_xfermask() from pacpi_discover_modes()Tejun Heo
Finding out matching transfer mode from ACPI GTM values is useful for other purposes too. Separate out the function and timing tables from pata_acpi::pacpi_discover_modes(). Other than checking shared-configuration bit after doing ata_acpi_gtm() in pacpi_discover_modes() which should be safe, this patch doesn't introduce any behavior change.

2008-01-23libata: add ATA_CBL_PATA_IGNTejun Heo
ATA_CBL_PATA_UNK indicates that the cable type can't be determined from the host side and might be either 80c or 40c. libata applies drive or other generic limit in this case. However, there are controllers where both host and drive side detections are misimplemented and the driver has to rely solely on private method - peeking BIOS or ACPI configuration or using some other private mechanism. This patch adds ATA_CBL_PATA_IGN which tells libata to ignore the cable type completely and just let the LLD determine the transfer mode via host transfer mode masks and ->mode_filter().

2008-01-23libata: Disable ATA8-ACS proposed Trusted Computing features by defaultAlan Cox
Historically word 48 in the identify data was used to mean 32bit I/O was supported for VLB IDE etc. ATA8 reassigns this word to the Trusted Computing Group, where it is used for TCG features. This means that an ATA8 TCG drive is going to trigger 32bit I/O on some systems which will be funny. Anyway we need to sort this out ready for ATA8 so: - Reorder the ata.h header a bit so the ata_version function occurs early in it - Make dword_io check the ATA version - Add an ATA8 version checking TCG presence test While we are at it the current drafts have a flaw where it may not be possible to disable TCG features at boot (and opt out of the trusted model) as TCG intends because it relies on presence of a different optional feature (DCS). Handle this in software by refusing the TCG commands if libata.allow_tpm is not set. (We must make it possible as some environments such as proprietary VDR devices will doubtless want to use it to lock up content) Finally as with CPRM print a warning so that the user knows they may not be able to full access and use the device.

2008-01-16lockdep: fix workqueue creation API lockdep interactionJohannes Berg
Dave Young reported warnings from lockdep that the workqueue API can sometimes try to register lockdep classes with the same key but different names. This is not permitted in lockdep. Unfortunately, I was unaware of that restriction when I wrote the code to debug workqueue problems with lockdep and used the workqueue name as the lockdep class name. This can obviously lead to the problem if the workqueue name is dynamic. This patch solves the problem by always using a constant name for the workqueue's lockdep class, namely either the constant name that was passed in or a string consisting of the variable name.

2008-01-13remove task_ppid_nr_nsRoland McGrath
task_ppid_nr_ns is called in three places. One of these should never have called it. In the other two, using it broke the existing semantics. This was presumably accidental. If the function had not been there, it would have been much more obvious to the eye that those patches were changing the behavior. We don't need this function. In task_state, the pid of the ptracer is not the ppid of the ptracer. In do_task_stat, ppid is the tgid of the real_parent, not its pid. I also moved the call outside of lock_task_sighand, since it doesn't need it. In sys_getppid, ppid is the tgid of the real_parent, not its pid.

2008-01-11PM: ACPI and APM must not be enabled at the same timeLen Brown
ACPI and APM used "pm_active" to guarantee that they would not be simultaneously active. But pm_active was recently moved under CONFIG_PM_LEGACY, so that without CONFIG_PM_LEGACY, pm_active became a NOP -- allowing ACPI and APM to both be simultaneously enabled. This caused unpredictable results, including boot hangs. Further, the code under CONFIG_PM_LEGACY is scheduled for removal. So replace pm_active with pm_flags. pm_flags depends only on CONFIG_PM, which is present for both CONFIG_APM and CONFIG_ACPI. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9194 Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2008-01-08[NET]: Add NAPI_STATE_DISABLE.David S. Miller
Create a bit to signal that a napi_disable() is in progress. This sets up infrastructure such that net_rx_action() can generically break out of the ->poll() loop on a NAPI context that has a pending napi_disable() yet is being bombed with packets (and thus would otherwise poll endlessly and not allow the napi_disable() to finish). Now, what napi_disable() does is first set the NAPI_STATE_DISABLE bit (to indicate that a disable is pending), then it polls for the NAPI_STATE_SCHED bit, and once the NAPI_STATE_SCHED bit is acquired the NAPI_STATE_DISABLE bit is cleared. Here, the test_and_set_bit() provides the necessary memory barrier between the various bitops. napi_schedule_prep() now tests for a pending disable as it's first action and won't try to obtain the NAPI_STATE_SCHED bit if a disable is pending. As a result, we can remove the netif_running() check in netif_rx_schedule_prep() because the NAPI disable pending state serves this purpose. And, it does so in a NAPI centric manner which is what we really want. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-01-08[NET]: Do not grab device reference when scheduling a NAPI poll.David S. Miller
It is pointless, because everything that can make a device go away will do a napi_disable() first. The main impetus behind this is that now we can legally do a NAPI completion in generic code like net_rx_action() which a following changeset needs to do. net_rx_action() can only perform actions in NAPI centric ways, because there may be a one to many mapping between NAPI contexts and network devices (SKY2 is one example). We also want to get rid of this because it's an extra atomic in the NAPI paths, and also because it is one of the last instances where the NAPI interfaces care about net devices. The one remaining netdev detail the NAPI stuff cares about is the netif_running() check which will be killed off in a subsequent changeset. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This opened up the possibility to add the non-initialized sysdev device of the secondary core: cpufreq-core: trying to register driver powernow-k8 cpufreq-core: adding CPU 0 powernow-k8: BIOS error - no PSB or ACPI _PSS objects cpufreq-core: initialization failed cpufreq-core: adding CPU 1 cpufreq-core: initialization failed which then blew up. The fix is to make cpu_is_offline() always the negation of cpu_online(). With that fix applied the kernel boots up fine without crashing: Calling initcall 0xffffffff80cc0510: powernowk8_init+0x0/0x94() powernow-k8: Found 1 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 3800+ processors (1 cpu cores) (version 2.20.00) powernow-k8: BIOS error - no PSB or ACPI _PSS objects initcall 0xffffffff80cc0510: powernowk8_init+0x0/0x94() returned -19. initcall 0xffffffff80cc0510 ran for 19 msecs: powernowk8_init+0x0/0x94() Calling initcall 0xffffffff80cc328f: init_lapic_nmi_sysfs+0x0/0x39() We could fix this by making CPU enumeration aware of max_cpus, but that would be more fragile IMO, and the cpu_online(cpu) != cpu_is_offline(cpu) possibility was quite confusing and a continuous source of bugs too. Most distributions have kernels with CPU hotplug enabled, so this bug remained hidden for a long time.

2007-12-27increase PNP_MAX_PORT to 40 from 24Len Brown
a7839e960675b549f06209d18283d5cee2ce9261 (PNP: increase the maximum number of resources) increased PNP_MAX_PORT to 24 from 8. It also added a test and a complaint when a machine exceeded the limit, causing: pnpacpi: exceeded the max number of IO resources: 24 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9535 We should have been squawking about this all along, as this is a potentially serious issue. For now, simply burn some dynamic bytes and increase the limit by another 16 to 40. There is no guarantee that this will satisfy every system on Earth. It probably will not, but it should be an improvement. In the future, PNPACPI should allocate resource structures as needed, rather than max-sized arrays.

2007-12-18genirq: add unlocked version of set_irq_handler()Kevin Hilman
Add unlocked version for use by irq_chip.set_type handlers which may wish to change handler to level or edge handler when IRQ type is changed. The normal set_irq_handler() call cannot be used because it tries to take irq_desc.lock which is already held when the irq_chip.set_type hook is called.
