[SCSI] zfcp: receiving an unsolicted status can lead to I/O stall
Processing of an unsolicted status request can lead to a locking race
of the request_queue's queue_lock during the recreation of the
used up status read request while still in interrupt context
of the response handler.
Detaching the 'refill' of the long running status read requests from
the handler to a scheduled work is solving this issue.
In addition, each refill-run is trying to re-establish the full amount
of status read requests, which might have failed in earlier runs.

[SCSI] scsi_dh: Add a single threaded workqueue for initializing paths
Before this patch set (SCSI hardware handlers), initialization of a
path was done asynchronously. Doing that requires a workqueue in each
device/hardware handler module and leads to unneccessary complication
in the device handler code, making it difficult to read the code and
follow the state diagram.
Moving that workqueue to this level makes the device handler code simpler.
Hence, the workqueue is moved to dm level.
A new workqueue is added instead of adding it to the existing workqueue
(kmpathd) for the following reasons:
1. Device activation has to happen faster, stacking them along
with the other workqueue might lead to unnecessary delay
in the activation of the path.
2. The effect could be felt the other way too. i.e the current
events that are handled by the existing workqueue might get
a delayed response.

tcp: fix skb vs fack_count out-of-sync condition
This bug is able to corrupt fackets_out in very rare cases.
In order for this to cause corruption:
1) DSACK in the middle of previous SACK block must be generated.
2) In order to take that particular branch, part or all of the
DSACKed segment must already be SACKed so that we have that
in cache in the first place.
3) The new info must be top enough so that fackets_out will be
updated on this iteration.
...then fack_count is updated while skb wasn't, then we walk again
that particular segment thus updating fack_count twice for
a single skb and finally that value is assigned to fackets_out
by tcp_sacktag_one.
It is safe to call tcp_sacktag_one just once for a segment (at
DSACK), no need to call again for plain SACK.
Potential problem of the miscount are limited to premature entry
to recovery and to inflated reordering metric (which could even
cancel each other out in the most the luckiest scenarios :-)).
Both are quite insignificant in worst case too and there exists
also code to reset them (fackets_out once sacked_out becomes zero
and reordering metric on RTO).
This has been reported by a number of people, because it occurred
quite rarely, it has been very evasive. Andy Furniss was able to
get it to occur couple of times so that a bit more info was
collected about the problem using a debug patch, though it still
required lot of checking around. Thanks also to others who have
tried to help here.
This is listed as Bugzilla #10346. The bug was introduced by
me in commit 68f8353b48 ([TCP]: Rewrite SACK block processing &
sack_recv_cache use), I probably thought back then that there's
need to scan that entry twice or didn't dare to make it go
through it just once there. Going through twice would have
required restoring fack_count after the walk but as noted above,
I chose to drop the additional walk step altogether here.

tcp: Fix inconsistency source (CA_Open only when !tcp_left_out(tp))
It is possible that this skip path causes TCP to end up into an
invalid state where ca_state was left to CA_Open while some
segments already came into sacked_out. If next valid ACK doesn't
contain new SACK information TCP fails to enter into
tcp_fastretrans_alert(). Thus at least high_seq is set
incorrectly to a too high seqno because some new data segments
could be sent in between (and also, limited transmit is not
being correctly invoked there). Reordering in both directions
can easily cause this situation to occur.
I guess we would want to use tcp_moderate_cwnd(tp) there as well
as it may be possible to use this to trigger oversized burst to
network by sending an old ACK with huge amount of SACK info, but
I'm a bit unsure about its effects (mainly to FlightSize), so to
be on the safe side I just currently fixed it minimally to keep
TCP's state consistent (obviously, such nasty ACKs have been
possible this far). Though it seems that FlightSize is already
underestimated by some amount, so probably on the long term we
might want to trigger recovery there too, if appropriate, to make
FlightSize calculation to resemble reality at the time when the
losses where discovered (but such change scares me too much now
and requires some more thinking anyway how to do that as it
likely involves some code shuffling).

x86, fpu: fix CONFIG_PREEMPT=y corruption of application's FPU stack
Jürgen Mell reported an FPU state corruption bug under CONFIG_PREEMPT,
and bisected it to commit v2.6.19-1363-gacc2076, "i386: add sleazy FPU
optimization".
Add tsk_used_math() checks to prevent calling math_state_restore()
which can sleep in the case of !tsk_used_math(). This prevents
making a blocking call in __switch_to().
Apparently "fpu_counter > 5" check is not enough, as in some signal handling
and fork/exec scenarios, fpu_counter > 5 and !tsk_used_math() is possible.
It's a side effect though. This is the failing scenario:
process 'A' in save_i387_ia32() just after clear_used_math()
Got an interrupt and pre-empted out.
At the next context switch to process 'A' again, kernel tries to restore
the math state proactively and sees a fpu_counter > 0 and !tsk_used_math()
This results in init_fpu() during the __switch_to()'s math_state_restore()
And resulting in fpu corruption which will be saved/restored
(save_i387_fxsave and restore_i387_fxsave) during the remaining
part of the signal handling after the context switch.

x86: fix Xorg crash with xf86MapVidMem error
Clarify the usage of mtrr_lookup() in PAT code, and to make PAT code
resilient to mtrr lookup problems.
Specifically, pat_x_mtrr_type() is restructured to highlight, under what
conditions we look for mtrr hint. pat_x_mtrr_type() uses a default type
when there are any errors in mtrr lookup (still maintaining the pat
consistency). And, reserve_memtype() highlights its usage ot mtrr_lookup
for request type of '-1' and also defaults in a sane way on any mtrr
lookup failure.
pat.c looks at mtrr type of a range to get a hint on what mapping type
to request when user/API: (1) hasn't specified any type (/dev/mem
mapping) and we do not want to take performance hit by always mapping
UC_MINUS. This will be the case for /dev/mem mappings used to map BIOS
area or ACPI region which are WB'able. In this case, as long as MTRR is
not WB, PAT will request UC_MINUS for such mappings.
(2) user/API requests WB mapping while in reality MTRR may have UC or
WC. In this case, PAT can map as WB (without checking MTRR) and still
effective type will be UC or WC. But, a subsequent request to map same
region as UC or WC may fail, as the region will get trackked as WB in
PAT list. Looking at MTRR hint helps us to track based on effective type
rather than what user requested. Again, here mtrr_lookup is only used as
hint and we fallback to WB mapping (as requested by user) as default.
In both cases, after using the mtrr hint, we still go through the
memtype list to make sure there are no inconsistencies among multiple
users.

x86: fix broken math-emu with lazy allocation of fpu area
Fix the math emulation that got broken with the recent lazy allocation of FPU
area. init_fpu() need to be added for the math-emulation path aswell
for the FPU area allocation.
math emulation enabled kernel booted fine with this, in the presence
of "no387 nofxsr" boot param.
Here's an example of a 400 us latency. pcscd took a timer interrupt and
returned with "need resched" enabled, but did not reschedule until after
the next interrupt came in at 52360771us 400us later!
At first I thought we somehow missed a preemption check in entry.S. But
I also noticed that this always seemed to happen during a __delay call.
In git commit 35d5d08a085c56f153458c3f5d8ce24123617faf, Andrew Morton
placed preempt_disable around the entire delay due to TSC's not working
nicely on SMP. Unfortunately for those that care about latencies this
is devastating! Especially when we have callers to mdelay(8).
Here I enable preemption during the loop and account for anytime the task
migrates to a new CPU. The delay asked for may be extended a bit by
the migration, but delay only guarantees that it will delay for that minimum
time. Delaying longer should not be an issue.
[
Thanks to Thomas Gleixner for spotting that cpu wasn't updated,
and to place the rep_nop between preempt_enabled/disable.

libata-sff: Fix oops reported in kerneloops.org for pnp devices with no ctl
- Make ata_sff_altstatus private so nobody uses it by mistake
- Drop the 400nS delay from it
Add
ata_sff_irq_status - encapsulates the IRQ check logic
This function keeps the existing behaviour for altstatus using devices. I
actually suspect the logic was wrong before the changes but -rc isn't the
time to play with that
ata_sff_sync - ensure writes hit the device
Really we want an io* operation for 'is posted' eg ioisposted(ioaddr) so
that we can fix the nasty delay this causes on most systems.
- ata_sff_pause - 400nS delay
Ensure the command hit the device and delay 400nS
- ata_sff_dma_pause
Ensure the I/O hit the device and enforce an HDMA1:0 transition delay.
Requires altstatus register exists, BUG if not so we don't risk
corruption in MWDMA modes. (UDMA the checksum will save your backside in
theory)
The only other complication then is devices with their own handlers.
rb532 can use dma_pause but scc needs to access its own altstatus
register for internal errata workarounds so directly call the drivers own
altstatus function.

[libata] ACPI: Properly handle bay devices in dock stations
* Differentiate between bay devices in dock stations and others:
- When an ACPI_NOTIFY_EJECT_REQUEST appears, just signal uevent to
userspace (that is when the optional eject button on a bay device is
pressed/pulled) giving the possibility to unmount file systems and to
clean up. Also, only send uevent in case we get an EJECT_REQUEST
without doing anything else. In other cases, you'll get an add/remove
event because libata attaches/detaches the device.
- In case of a dock event, which in turn signals an
ACPI_NOTIFY_EJECT_REQUEST, immediately detach the device, because it
may already have been gone
* In case of an ACPI_NOTIFY_DEVICE/BUS_CHECK, evaluate _STA to check if
the device has been plugged or unplugged. If plugged, hotplug it, if
unplugged, just signal event to userspace

The neighbor table time of last use information is returned in the
incorrect unit. Kernel to user space ABI's need to use USER_HZ (or
milliseconds), otherwise the application has to try and discover the
real system HZ value which is problematic. Linux has standardized on
keeping USER_HZ consistent (100hz) even when kernel is running
internally at some other value.
This change is small, but it breaks the ABI for older version of
iproute2 utilities. But these utilities are already broken since they
are looking at the psched_hz values which are completely different. So
let's just go ahead and fix both kernel and user space. Older
utilities will just print wrong values.
