A Gentoo bug report [1] showed that as of 2.6.31 lpfc only uses INTx interrupts.
This patch restores lpfc's ability to support MSI-X/MSI interrupts that the
"Addition of SLI4 Interface - Base Support" patch [2] broke.
It reestablishes MSI-X as the default interrupt method and in case MSI-X is not
supported lpfc_sli{4,}_enable_intr fallbacks to MSI and then to INTx.
[James Smart:
Background:
Nothing Broke. This was intended.
We had originally enabled MSI-X by default, but in qualification within the
last 12 months, we encountered a major catch-22:
There were at least 4 platforms, from 2 major OEMs, that :
- Say they support MSI-X - platform routines work and act as if they do.
- We enable it, generate a test interrupt to check they really do deliver it,
and it works.
- But shortly after attachment, the system hangs or loses interrupts,
resulting in a bad system behavior.
Given the distro's picking up the 2.6.32 kernel, we had to stick with a
default of MSI-X off, with user-enabled MSI-X as these platforms couldn't get
fixed.
However, we're also now encountering platforms that require MSI-X and never
INTx, so we must change. It's desired also for also for performance reasons.
So - now (2.6.33) is the right time to re-enable MSI-X by default.

[SCSI] scsi_transport_fc: Remove capping from dev_loss_tmo
Currently dev_loss_tmo is capped by SCSI_DEVICE_BLOCK_MAX_TIMEOUT.
This causes problem with multipathing when the 'no_path_retry' setting
exceeds the dev_loss_tmo setting, as then the system might run into
a deadlock when all paths have been removed temporarily for longer
than dev_loss_tmo.
The principal reasons for the capping has been that we should
not allow a remote port to remain in status 'blocked' indefinitely,
so the capping is there to ensure that the port status is being reset
eventually.
However, the fast_io_fail_tmo will also move the remote port out of
the 'blocked' state, so for any HBA driver implementing both the
capping should really be on the fast_io_fail_tmo, and not on the
dev_loss_tmo.
This patch implements just that, ie the fast_io_fail_tmo is capped
to SCSI_DEVICE_BLOCK_TIMEOUT and the capping is removed from
dev_loss_tmo when fast_io_fail_tmo is set.
This allows us to synchronize the dev_loss_tmo setting to the
'no_path_retry' setting from multipathing thus avoiding the deadlock.

Because of the terrible structuring of scsi-bidi-commands
it breaks some of the life time rules of a scsi-command.
It is now not allowed to free up the block-request before
cleanup and partial deallocation of the scsi-command. (Which
is not so for none bidi commands)
The right fix to this problem would be to make bidi command
a first citizen by allocating a scsi_sdb pointer at scsi command
just like cmd->prot_sdb. The bidi sdb should be allocated/deallocated
as part of the get/put_command (Again like the prot_sdb) and the
current decoupling of scsi_cmnd and blk-request should be kept.
For now make sure scsi_release_buffers() is called before the
call to blk_end_request_all() which might cause the suicide of
the block requests. At best the leak of bidi buffers, at worse
a crash, as there is a race between the existence of the bidi_request
and the free of the associated bidi_sdb.
The reason this was never hit before is because only OSD has the potential
of doing asynchronous bidi commands. (So does bsg but it is never used)
And OSD clients just happen to do all their bidi commands synchronously, up
until recently.

These particular problems were reported by Cisco and SAP and customers
as well. Cisco reported on RHEL4 U6 and SAP reported on SLES9 SP4 and
SLES10 SP2. We added these fixes on RHEL4 U6 and gave a private build
to IBM and Cisco. Cisco and IBM tested it for more than 15 days and
they reported that they did not see the issue so far. Before the fix,
Cisco used to see the issue within 5 days. We generated a patch for
SLES9 SP4 and SLES10 SP2 and submitted to Novell. Novell applied the
patch and gave a test build to SAP. SAP tested and reported that the
build is working properly.
We also tested in our lab using the tools "dishogsync", which is IO
stress tool and the tool was provided by Cisco.
Issue1: File System going into read-only mode
Root cause: The driver tends to not free the memory (FIB) when the
management request exits prematurely. The accumulation of such
un-freed memory causes the driver to fail to allocate anymore memory
(FIB) and hence return 0x70000 value to the upper layer, which puts
the file system into read only mode.
Fix details: The fix makes sure to free the memory (FIB) even if the
request exits prematurely hence ensuring the driver wouldn't run out
of memory (FIBs).
Issue2: False Raid Alert occurs
When the Physical Drives and Logical drives are reported as deleted or
added, even though there is no change done on the system
Root cause: Driver IOCTLs is signaled with EINTR while waiting on
response from the lower layers. Returning "EINTR" will never initiate
internal retry.
Fix details: The issue was fixed by replacing "EINTR" with
"ERESTARTSYS" for mid-layer retries.

revert "drivers/video/s3c-fb.c: fix clock setting for Samsung SoC Framebuffer"
Fix divide by zero and broken output. Commit 600ce1a0fa ("fix clock
setting for Samsung SoC Framebuffer") introduced a mandatory refresh
parameter to the platform data for the S3C framebuffer but did not
introduce any validation code, causing existing platforms (none of which
have refresh set) to divide by zero whenever the framebuffer is
configured, generating warnings and unusable output.
Ben Dooks noted several problems with the patch:
- The platform data supplies the pixclk directly and should already
have taken care of the refresh rate.
- The addition of a window ID parameter doesn't help since only the
root framebuffer can control the pixclk.
- pixclk is specified in picoseconds (rather than Hz) as the patch
assumed.
and suggests reverting the commit so do that. Without fixing this no
mainline user of the driver will produce output.

nommu: fix shared mmap after truncate shrinkage problems
Fix a problem in NOMMU mmap with ramfs whereby a shared mmap can happen
over the end of a truncation. The problem is that
ramfs_nommu_check_mappings() checks that the reduced file size against the
VMA tree, but not the vm_region tree.
The following sequence of events can cause the problem:
Mapping 'a' creates a vm_region covering 32KB of the file. Mapping 'b'
sees that the vm_region from 'a' is covering the region it wants and so
shares it, pinning it in memory.
Mapping 'a' then goes away and the file is truncated to the end of VMA
'b'. However, the region allocated by 'a' is still in effect, and has
_not_ been reduced.
Mapping 'c' is then created, and because there's a vm_region covering the
desired region, get_unmapped_area() is _not_ called to repeat the check,
and the mapping is granted, even though the pages from the latter half of
the mapping have been discarded.
However:
d = mmap(NULL, 16 * 1024, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0);
Mapping 'd' should work, and should end up sharing the region allocated by
'a'.
To deal with this, we shrink the vm_region struct during the truncation,
lest do_mmap_pgoff() take it as licence to share the full region
automatically without calling the get_unmapped_area() file op again.

nommu: fix race between ramfs truncation and shared mmap
Fix the race between the truncation of a ramfs file and an attempt to make
a shared mmap of region of that file.
The problem is that do_mmap_pgoff() calls f_op->get_unmapped_area() to
verify that the file region is made of contiguous pages and to find its
base address - but there isn't any locking to guarantee this region until
vma_prio_tree_insert() is called by add_vma_to_mm().
Note that moving the functionality into f_op->mmap() doesn't help as that
is also called before vma_prio_tree_insert().
Instead make ramfs_nommu_check_mappings() grab nommu_region_sem whilst it
does its checks. This means that this function will wait whilst mmaps
take place.

nommu: fix SYSV SHM for NOMMU
Commit c4caa778157dbbf04116f0ac2111e389b5cd7a29 ("file
->get_unmapped_area() shouldn't duplicate work of get_unmapped_area()")
broke SYSV SHM for NOMMU by taking away the pointer to
shm_get_unmapped_area() from shm_file_operations.
Put it back conditionally on CONFIG_MMU=n.
file->f_ops->get_unmapped_area() is used to find out the base address for a
mapping of a mappable chardev device or mappable memory-based file (such as a
ramfs file). It needs to be called prior to file->f_ops->mmap() being called.
