* [PATCH] set_current_state() commentaryAndrew Morton2005-09-131-0/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Explain the mysteries of set_current_state(). Quoth Linus: The scheduler itself never needs the memory barrier at all. The barrier is needed only if the user itself ends up testing some other thing afterwards, ie if you have set_process_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE); if (still_need_to_sleep()) schedule(); then the "still_need_to_sleep()" thing may test flags and wakeup events, and then you _may_ want to (and often do) make sure that the write of TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE is serialized wrt the reads of any wakeup data (since the wakeup may have happened on another CPU). So the comment is somewhat wrong. We don't really _care_ whether the state propagates out to other CPU's since all of our actions are purely local, and there is nothing we do that is conditional on any other CPU: we're going to sleep unconditionally, and the scheduler only cares about _our_ state, not about somebody elses state.

* [PATCH] open returns ENFILE but creates file anywayPeter Staubach2005-09-131-42/+56
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When open(O_CREAT) is called and the error, ENFILE, is returned, the file may be created anyway. This is counter intuitive, against the SUS V3 specification, and may cause applications to misbehave if they are not coded correctly to handle this semantic. The SUS V3 specification explicitly states "No files shall be created or modified if the function returns -1.". The error, ENFILE, is used to indicate the system wide open file table is full and no more file structs can be allocated. This is due to an ordering problem. The entry in the directory is created before the file struct is allocated. If the allocation for the file struct fails, then the system call must return an error, but the directory entry was already created and can not be safely removed. The solution to this situation is relatively easy. The file struct should be allocated before the directory entry is created. If the allocation fails, then the error can be returned directly. If the creation of the directory entry fails, then the file struct can be easily freed.

| * [SCSI] Alter the scsi_add_device() API to conform to what users expectJames Bottomley2005-09-103-6/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The original API returned either an ERR_PTR() or a refcounted sdev. Unfortunately, if it's successful, you need to do a scsi_device_put() on the sdev otherwise the refcounting is wrong. Everyone seems to expect that scsi_add_device() should be callable without doing the ref put, so alter the API so it is (we still have __scsi_add_device with the original behaviour). The only actual caller that needs altering is the one in firewire ... not because it gets this right, but because it acts on the error if one is returned.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The SAS transport class contains common code to deal with SAS HBAs, an aproximated representation of SAS topologies in the driver model, and various sysfs attributes to expose these topologies and managment interfaces to userspace. In addition to the basic SCSI core objects this transport class introduces two additional intermediate objects: The SAS PHY as represented by struct sas_phy defines an "outgoing" PHY on a SAS HBA or Expander, and the SAS remote PHY represented by struct sas_rphy defines an "incoming" PHY on a SAS Expander or end device. Note that this is purely a software concept, the underlying hardware for a PHY and a remote PHY is the exactly the same. There is no concept of a SAS port in this code, users can see what PHYs form a wide port based on the port_identifier attribute, which is the same for all PHYs in a port. This submission doesn't handle hot-plug addition or removal of SAS devices and thus doesn't do scanning in a workqueue yet, that will be added in phase2 after this submission. In a third phase I will add additional managment infrastructure. I think this submission is ready for 2.6.14, but additional comments are of course very welcome. I'd like to thanks James Smart a lot for his very useful input on the design. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>
| * [SCSI] permit READ DEFECT DATA in block/scsi_ioctlDouglas Gilbert2005-09-091-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The soon to be released smartmontools 5.34 uses the READ DEFECT DATA command on SCSI disks. A disk that has defect list entries (or worse, an increasing number of them) is at risk. Currently the first invocation of smartctl causes this: scsi: unknown opcode 0x37 message to appear the console and in the log. The READ DEFECT DATA SCSI command does not change the state of a disk. Its opcode (0x37) is valid for SBC devices (e.g. disks) and SMC-2 devices (media changers) where it is called INITIALIZE STATUS ELEMENT WITH RANGE and again doesn't change the external state of the device.

Ahmed Teirelbar <ahmed.teirelbar@adic.com> wants the facility and has tested this patch as I have without adverse effects. The oops protection is still important. Some users really did try and use dio transfers from the sg driver to memory mapped IO space (on a video capture card if my memory serves) during the lk 2.4 series. I'm not sure how successful it was but that will now be politely refused in lk 2.6.13+ .

(I'm not sure if it's necessary to call scsi_init_cmd_errh here; maybe you can check on that.) Finally, the patch changes the return value from scsi_end_request, to avoid returning a stale pointer in the case where the request was requeued.

| * [SCSI] fix possible deadlock in scsi_lib.cNeil Brown2005-09-091-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a filesystem, while writing out data, decides that it is good to issue a cache flush on a SCSI drive (or other 'sd' device), it will call blkdev_issue_flush which calls ->issue_flush_fn which is scsi_issue_flush_fn. This calls sd_issue_flush which calls sd_sync_cache, which calls scsi_execute_request. This will (as sshdr != NULL) call kmalloc(SCSI_SENSE_BUFFERSIZE, GFP_KERNEL) If memory is tight, the presence of GFP_KERNEL may cause write requests to be sent to some filesystem to free up memory, however if that filesystem is waiting for the issue_flush_fn to complete, you could get a deadlock. I wonder if it might be more appropriate to use GFP_NOIO as in the following patch. I wonder if it might be even more appropriate to cope better with a kmalloc failure, especially as in this use, sd_sync_cache only will use the sense information to print out a more informative error message.

| * | | [NETROM]: Implement G8PZT Circuit reset for NET/ROMRalf Baechle2005-09-126-16/+69
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | NET/ROM is lacking a connection reset like TCP's RST flag which at times may result in a connecting having to slowly timing out instead of just being reset. An earlier attempt to reset the connection by sending a NR_CONNACK | NR_CHOKE_FLAG transport was inacceptable as it did result in crashes of BPQ systems. An alternative approach of introducing a new transport type 7 (NR_RESET) has be implemented several years ago in Paula Jayne Dowie G8PZT's Xrouter. Implement NR_RESET for Linux's NET/ROM but like any messing with the state engine consider this experimental for now and thus control it by a sysctl (net.netrom.reset) which for the time being defaults to off.

| * | | [ROSE]: ROSE has no ARPRalf Baechle2005-09-121-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ARP over ROSE does not exist so it's obviously not implemented on any ROSE stack, so the ROSE interfaces really should default to IFF_NOARP.
