2006-05-15[PATCH] libata-ncq: implement NCQ device configurationTejun Heo
Now that all NCQ related stuff are in place, implement NCQ device configuration and bump ATA_MAX_QUEUE to 32 thus activating NCQ support. Original implementation is from Jens Axboe. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com>
2006-05-15[PATCH] libata-ncq: implement ap->qc_active, ap->sactive and complete helperTejun Heo
Add ap->qc_active and ap->sactive, mask of all active qcs and libata's view of the SActive register, respectively. Also, implement ata_qc_complete_multiple() which takes new qc_active mask and complete multiple qcs according to the mask. These will be used to track NCQ commands and complete them. The distinction between ap->qc_active and ap->sactive is also useful for later PM implementation. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com>
2006-05-15[PATCH] libata-ncq: rename ap->qactive to ap->qc_allocatedTejun Heo

2006-05-15[PATCH] libata-eh: implement new EHTejun Heo
Implement new EH. The exported interface is ata_do_eh() which is to be called from ->error_handler and performs the following steps to recover the failed port. ata_eh_autopsy() : analyze SError/TF, determine the cause of failure and required recovery actions and record it in ap->eh_context ata_eh_report() : report the failure to user ata_eh_recover() : perform recovery actions described in ap->eh_context ata_eh_finish() : finish failed qcs LLDDs can customize error handling by modifying eh_context before calling ata_do_eh() or, if necessary, doing so inbetween each major steps by calling each step explicitly. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com>
2006-05-15[PATCH] libata-eh: implement ata_eh_info and ata_eh_contextTejun Heo
struct ata_eh_info serves as the communication channel between execution path and EH. Execution path describes detected error condition in ap->eh_info and EH recovers the port using it. To avoid missing error conditions detected during EH, EH makes its own copy of eh_info and clears it on entry allowing error info to accumulate during EH. Most EH states including EH's copy of eh_info are stored in ap->eh_context (struct ata_eh_context) which is owned by EH and thus doesn't require any synchronization to access and alter. This standardized context makes it easy to integrate various parts of EH and extend EH to handle multiple links (for PM). Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com>
2006-05-15[PATCH] libata-eh: implement dev->eringTejun Heo
This patch implements ata_ering and uses it to define dev->ering. ata_ering is a ring buffer which records libata errors - whether a command was for normar IO request, err_mask and timestamp. Errors are recorded per-device in dev->ering. This will be used by EH to determine recovery actions. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com>

Add ATA and libata flags to be used by new EH. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com>
2006-05-15[PATCH] libata-eh-fw: update ata_scsi_error() for new EHTejun Heo
Update ata_scsi_error() for new EH. ata_scsi_error() is responsible for claiming timed out qcs and invoking ->error_handler in safe and synchronized manner. As the state of the controller is unknown if a qc has timed out, the port is frozen in such cases. Note that ata_scsi_timed_out() isn't used for new EH. This is because a timed out qc cannot be claimed by EH without freezing the port and freezing the port in ata_scsi_timed_out() results in unnecessary abortion of other active qcs. ata_scsi_timed_out() can be removed once all drivers are converted to new EH. While at it, add 'TODO: kill' comments to old EH functions. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com>
2006-05-15[PATCH] libata-eh-fw: implement freeze/thawTejun Heo
Freezing is performed atomic w.r.t. host_set->lock and once frozen LLDD is not allowed to access the port or any qc on it. Also, libata makes sure that no new qc gets issued to a frozen port. A frozen port is thawed after a reset operation completes successfully, so reset methods must do its job while the port is frozen. During initialization all ports get frozen before requesting IRQ, so reset methods are always invoked on a frozen port. Optional ->freeze and ->thaw operations notify LLDD that the port is being frozen and thawed, respectively. LLDD can disable/enable hardware interrupt in these callbacks if the controller's IRQ mask can be changed dynamically. If the controller doesn't allow such operation, LLDD can check for frozen state in the interrupt handler and ack/clear interrupts unconditionally while frozen.

2006-05-15[PATCH] libata-eh-fw: implement ata_port_schedule_eh() and ata_port_abort()Tejun Heo
ata_port_schedule_eh() directly schedules EH for @ap without associated qc. Once EH scheduled, no further qc is allowed and EH kicks in as soon as all currently active qc's are drained. ata_port_abort() schedules all currently active commands for EH by qc_completing them with ATA_QCFLAG_FAILED set. If ata_port_abort() doesn't find any qc to abort, it directly schedule EH using ata_port_schedule_eh(). These two functions provide ways to invoke EH for conditions which aren't directly related to any specfic qc. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com>
2006-05-15[PATCH] libata-eh-fw: implement new EH scheduling via error completionTejun Heo
There are several ways a qc can get schedule for EH in new EH. This patch implements one of them - completing a qc with ATA_QCFLAG_FAILED set or with non-zero qc->err_mask. ALL such qc's are examined by EH. New EH schedules a qc for EH from completion iff ->error_handler is implemented, qc is marked as failed or qc->err_mask is non-zero and the command is not an internal command (internal cmd is handled via ->post_internal_cmd). The EH scheduling itself is performed by asking SCSI midlayer to schedule EH for the specified scmd. For drivers implementing old-EH, nothing changes. As this change makes ata_qc_complete() rather large, it's not inlined anymore and __ata_qc_complete() is exported to other parts of libata for later use. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com>
2006-05-15[PATCH] libata-eh-fw: update ata_qc_from_tag() to enforce normal/EH qc ownershipTejun Heo
New EH framework has clear distinction about who owns a qc. Every qc starts owned by normal execution path - PIO, interrupt or whatever. When an exception condition occurs which affects the qc, the qc gets scheduled for EH. Note that some events (say, link lost and regained, command timeout) may schedule qc's which are not directly related but could have been affected for EH too. Scheduling for EH is atomic w.r.t. ap->host_set->lock and once schedule for EH, normal execution path is not allowed to access the qc in whatever way. (PIO synchronization acts a bit different and will be dealt with later) This patch make ata_qc_from_tag() check whether a qc is active and owned by normal path before returning it. If conditions don't match, NULL is returned and thus access to the qc is denied. __ata_qc_from_tag() is the original ata_qc_from_tag() and is used by libata core/EH layers to access inactive/failed qc's. This change is applied only if the associated LLDD implements new EH as indicated by non-NULL ->error_handler Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com>
2006-05-15[PATCH] libata-eh-fw: use special reserved tag and qc for internal commandsTejun Heo
New EH may issue internal commands to recover from error while failed qc's are still hanging around. To allow such usage, reserve tag ATA_MAX_QUEUE-1 for internal command. This also makes it easy to tell whether a qc is for internal command or not. ata_tag_internal() test implements this test. To avoid breaking existing drivers, ata_exec_internal() uses ATA_TAG_INTERNAL only for drivers which implement ->error_handler. For drivers using old EH, tag 0 is used. Note that this makes ata_tag_internal() test valid only when ->error_handler is implemented. This is okay as drivers on old EH should not and does not have any reason to use ata_tag_internal().

2006-05-15[PATCH] libata: implement ATA printk helpersTejun Heo
Implement ata_{port|dev}_printk() which prefixes the message with proper identification string. This change is necessary for later PM support because devices and links should be identified differently depending on how they are attached. This also helps unifying device id strings. Currently, there are two forms in use (P is the port number D device number) - 'ataP(D):', and 'ataP: dev D '. These macros also make it harder to forget proper ID string (e.g. printing only port number when a device is in question). Debug message handling can be integrated into these printk macros by passing debug type and level via @lv. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com>

2006-05-15[PATCH] libata: add dev->apTejun Heo
Add dev->ap which points back to the port the device belongs to. This makes it unnecessary to pass @ap for silly reasons (e.g. printks). Also, this change is necessary to accomodate later PM support which will introduce ATA link inbetween port and device. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com>

2006-05-15[PATCH] libata: implement new SCR handling and port on/offline functionsTejun Heo
Implement ata_scr_{valid|read|write|write_flush}() and ata_port_{online|offline}(). These functions replace scr_{read|write}() and sata_dev_present(). Major difference between between the new SCR functions and the old ones is that the new ones have a way to signal error to the caller. This makes handling SCR-available and SCR-unavailable cases in the same path easier. Also, it eases later PM implementation where SCR access can fail due to various reasons. ata_port_{online|offline}() functions return 1 only when they are affirmitive of the condition. e.g. if SCR is unaccessible or presence cannot be determined for other reasons, these functions return 0. So, ata_port_online() != !ata_port_offline(). This distinction is useful in many exception handling cases. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com>
2006-05-15[PATCH] libata: implement qc->result_tfTejun Heo
Add qc->result_tf and ATA_QCFLAG_RESULT_TF. This moves the responsibility of loading result TF from post-compltion path to qc execution path. qc->result_tf is loaded if explicitly requested or the qc failsa. This allows more efficient completion implementation and correct handling of result TF for controllers which don't have global TF representation such as sil3124/32.

2006-05-15[PATCH] libata: use preallocated buffersTejun Heo
It's not a very good idea to allocate memory during EH. Use statically allocated buffer for dev->id[] and add 512byte buffer ap->sector_buf. This buffer is owned by EH (or probing) and to be used as temporary buffer for various purposes (IDENTIFY, NCQ log page 10h, PM GSCR block). Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com>

2006-05-01[NETFILTER] x_tables: fix compat related crash on non-x86Patrick McHardy
When iptables userspace adds an ipt_standard_target, it calculates the size of the entire entry as: sizeof(struct ipt_entry) + XT_ALIGN(sizeof(struct ipt_standard_target)) ipt_standard_target looks like this: struct xt_standard_target { struct xt_entry_target target; int verdict; }; xt_entry_target contains a pointer, so when compiled for 64 bit the structure gets an extra 4 byte of padding at the end. On 32 bit architectures where iptables aligns to 8 byte it will also have 4 byte padding at the end because it is only 36 bytes large. The compat_ipt_standard_fn in the kernel adjusts the offsets by sizeof(struct ipt_standard_target) - sizeof(struct compat_ipt_standard_target), which will always result in 4, even if the structure from userspace was already padded to a multiple of 8. On x86 this works out by accident because userspace only aligns to 4, on all other architectures this is broken and causes incorrect adjustments to the size and following offsets.
