megaraid_sas : Use Block layer tag support for internal command indexing
megaraid_sas driver will use block layer provided tag for indexing internal
MPT frames to get any unique MPT frame tied with tag. Each IO request
submitted from SCSI mid layer will get associated MPT frame from MPT framepool
(retrieved and return back using spinlock inside megaraid_sas driver's
submission/completion call back). Getting MPT frame from MPT Frame pool is
very expensive operation because of associated spin lock operation (spinlock
overhead increase on multi NUMA node). This type of locking in driver is very
expensive call considering each IO request need - Acquire and Release of the
same lock.
With this support, in IO path driver will directly provide the unique command
index(which is based on block layer tag) and will get the MPT frame tied to
the tag and this way driver can get rid off lock, which synchronizes the
access to MPT frame pool while fetching and returning MPT frame from the pool.
This support in driver provides siginificant performance improvement(on multi
NUMA node system)on latest upstream with SCSI.MQ as well as on existing linux
distributions.
Here is the data for test executed at Avago-
- IO Tool- FIO
- 4 Socket SMC server. (4 NUMA node server)
- 12 SSDs in JBOD mode .
- 4K Rand READ, QD=32
- SCSI MQ x86_64 (Latest Upstream kernel)
- upto 300% Performance Improvement.
If IOs are running on single Node, perfromance gain is less, but as soon as
increase number of nodes, performance improvement is significant. IOs running
on all 4 NUMA nodes, with this patch applied IOPs observed was 1170K vs 344K
IOPs seen without this patch.
Logically, there are two parts of this patch- 1) Block layer tag support 2)
changes in calling convention of return_cmd. part 2 will revert the changes
done by patch- 90dc9d9 megaraid_sas : MFI MPT linked list corruption fix
because changes done in part 1 has fixed the problem of MFI MPT linked list
corruption. part 2 is very much dependent on part 1, so we decided to have
single patch for these two logical changes.

megaraid_sas : Add separate function for setting up IRQs
This patch will create separate functions for- 1) setting up IRQs for MSI-x
interrupts 2) setting up IRQs for legacy interrupts 3) freeing up IRQs. and
enable interrupts after adapter's initialization. The reason behind
initialising adapter earlier is: by that time firmware is operational and can
send interrupts, so better to use interrupt based interface to send internal
DCMD to firmware instead of using polling method, since MFI frames' pool size
is reduced and polling method does not free up MFI frame for fusion adapters,
so sending more DCMDs with polled method may cause MFI frames's pool go out of
frames and end up failing DCMD.

Currently we blindly use the value of cmd_per_lun as the initial setting for
queue_depth. This fails miserably (hangs the system) if it is zero, which is
the default value for anything uninitialised in the template. The net result
is that every host template has to set a value for cmd_per_lun. Instead, use

for removing cmd_per_lun from all the templates and eventually from SCSI

SCSI: add 1024 max sectors black list flag
This works around a issue with qnap iscsi targets not handling large IOs

The target returns:
VPD INQUIRY: Block limits page (SBC)

Optimal transfer length granularity: 1 blocks
Maximum transfer length: 4294967295 blocks
Optimal transfer length: 4294967295 blocks

Unmap granularity alignment valid: 0
Unmap granularity alignment: 0
Maximum write same length: 0xffffffff blocks
Maximum atomic transfer length: 0
Atomic alignment: 0
Atomic transfer length granularity: 0
and it is *sometimes* able to handle at least one IO of size up to 8 MB. We
have seen in traces where it will sometimes work, but other times it
looks like it fails and it looks like it returns failures if we send
multiple large IOs sometimes. Also it looks like it can return 2 different
errors. It will sometimes send iscsi reject errors indicating out of
resources or it will send invalid cdb illegal requests check conditions.
And then when it sends iscsi rejects it does not seem to handle retries
when there are command sequence holes, so I could not just add code to
try and gracefully handle that error code.
The problem is that we do not have a good contact for the company,
so we are not able to determine under what conditions it returns
which error and why it sometimes works.
So, this patch just adds a new black list flag to set targets like this to
the old max safe sectors of 1024. The max_hw_sectors changes added in 3.19
caused this regression, so I also ccing stable.

"This lays a little of the groundwork for upcoming Shared Virtual
Memory support — fixing some bogus #defines for capability bits and
adding the new ones, and starting to use the new wider page tables
where we can, in anticipation of actually filling in the new fields
therein.
It also allows graphics devices to be assigned to VM guests again.
This got broken in 3.17 by disallowing assignment of RMRR-afflicted
devices. Like USB, we do understand why there's an RMRR for graphics
devices — and unlike USB, it's actually sane. So we can make an
exception for graphics devices, just as we do USB controllers.
Finally, tone down the warning about the X2APIC_OPT_OUT bit, due to
persistent requests. X2APIC_OPT_OUT was added to the spec as a nasty
hack to allow broken BIOSes to forbid us from using X2APIC when they
do stupid and invasive things and would break if we did.
Someone noticed that since Windows doesn't have full IOMMU support for
DMA protection, setting the X2APIC_OPT_OUT bit made Windows avoid
initialising the IOMMU on the graphics unit altogether.
This means that it would be available for use in "driver mode", where
the IOMMU registers are made available through a BAR of the graphics
device and the graphics driver can do SVM all for itself.
So they started setting the X2APIC_OPT_OUT bit on *all* platforms with
SVM capabilities. And even the platforms which *might*, if the
planets had been aligned correctly, possibly have had SVM capability
but which in practice actually don't"

two modes (bootloader or regular), this gets complicated since the

actual addresses used. So now the laptop driver needs to know more
too, instantiating the regular address even if the bootloader one
is the probe that passed.

platform/chrome: chromeos_laptop - instantiate Atmel at primary address
The new Atmel MXT driver expects i2c client's address contain the
primary (main address) of the chip, and calculates the expected
bootloader address form the primary address. Unfortunately chrome_laptop
does probe the devices and if touchpad (or touchscreen, or both) comes
up in bootloader mode the i2c device gets instantiated with the
bootloader address which confuses the driver.
To work around this issue let's probe the primary address first. If the
device is not detected at the primary address we'll probe alternative
addresses as "dummy" devices. If any of them are found, destroy the
dummy client and instantiate client with proper name at primary address
still.

RCU pathwalk breakage when running into a symlink overmounting something
Calling unlazy_walk() in walk_component() and do_last() when we find
a symlink that needs to be followed doesn't acquire a reference to vfsmount.
That's fine when the symlink is on the same vfsmount as the parent directory
(which is almost always the case), but it's not always true - one _can_
manage to bind a symlink on top of something. And in such cases we end up
with excessive mntput().

direct-io: only inc/dec inode->i_dio_count for file systems
do_blockdev_direct_IO() increments and decrements the inode
->i_dio_count for each IO operation. It does this to protect against
truncate of a file. Block devices don't need this sort of protection.
For a capable multiqueue setup, this atomic int is the only shared
state between applications accessing the device for O_DIRECT, and it
presents a scaling wall for that. In my testing, as much as 30% of
system time is spent incrementing and decrementing this value. A mixed
read/write workload improved from ~2.5M IOPS to ~9.6M IOPS, with
better latencies too. Before:
In other setups, Robert Elliott reported seeing good performance
improvements:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/4/3/557
The more applications accessing the device, the worse it gets.
Add a new direct-io flags, DIO_SKIP_DIO_COUNT, which tells
do_blockdev_direct_IO() that it need not worry about incrementing
or decrementing the inode i_dio_count for this caller.

__btrfs_write_out_cache is holding the ctl->tree_lock while it prepares

toshiba_acpi: Do not register vendor backlight when acpi_video bl is available
commit a39f46df33c6 ("toshiba_acpi: Fix regression caused by backlight extra
check code") causes the backlight to no longer work on the Toshiba Z30,
reverting that commit fixes this but restores the original issue fixed
by that commit.
Looking at the toshiba_acpi backlight code for a fix for this I noticed that
the toshiba code is the only code under platform/x86 which unconditionally
registers a vendor acpi backlight interface, without checking for acpi_video
backlight support first.
This commit adds the necessary checks bringing toshiba_acpi in line with the
other drivers, and fixing the Z30 regression without needing to revert the
commit causing it.
Chances are that there will be some Toshiba models which have a non working
acpi-video implementation while the toshiba vendor backlight interface does
work, this commit adds an empty dmi_id table where such systems can be added,
this is identical to how other drivers handle such systems.
