[SCSI] kill scsi_rety_command

scsi_retry_command only has a single caller, so there is no point
in having this function.  Additionally the memset of the sense
buffer it does is entirely superflous as scsi_request_fn already
calls scsi_init_cmd_errh to perform this memset before the command
is reissued.

WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from
.text between '_cpu_up' (at offset 0xc0141c37) and 'cpu_up'

This is because cpu_up, _cpu_up and __cpu_up (in some architectures) are
defined as __devinit
AND
__cpu_up calls some __cpuinit functions.

Since __cpuinit would map to __init with this kind of a configuration,
we get a .text refering .init.data warning.

This patch solves the problem by converting all of __cpu_up, _cpu_up
and cpu_up from __devinit to __cpuinit. The approach is justified since
the callers of cpu_up are either dependent on CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU or
are of __init type.

Thus when CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=y, all these cpu up functions would land up
in .text section, and when CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=n, all these functions would
land up in .init section.

Tested on a i386 SMP machine running linux-2.6.20-rc3-mm1.

At least, this proves that having a ttl is good idea since the machine
would have been stucked in an infinite loop if we didn't have a ttl :)

17 years ago[PATCH] sched: tasks cannot run on cpus onlined after boot
Nathan Lynch [Thu, 11 Jan 2007 07:15:28 +0000 (23:15 -0800)]
[PATCH] sched: tasks cannot run on cpus onlined after boot

Commit 5c1e176781f43bc902a51e5832f789756bff911b ("sched: force /sbin/init
off isolated cpus") sets init's cpus_allowed to a subset of cpu_online_map
at boot time, which means that tasks won't be scheduled on cpus that are
added to the system later.

Make init's cpus_allowed a subset of cpu_possible_map instead.  This should
still preserve the behavior that Nick's change intended.

Thanks to Giuliano Pochini for reporting this and testing the fix:

Don't put "linux_banner" in the .init section

It might save a few bytes after bootup, but it causes the string to be
linked in at the end of the final vmlinux image, which defeats the whole
point of doing all this, namely allowing some broken user-space binaries
to search for the kernel version string in the kernel binary.

So just remove the __init specifier.

Jack Steiner [Thu, 11 Jan 2007 00:52:44 +0000 (01:52 +0100)]
[PATCH] x86-64: - Ignore long SMI interrupts in clock calibration

Ensure that no SMI interrupts occur between the read of the HPET & TSC
in the clock calibration loop.

I noticed that a 2.66GHz system incorrectly detected the processor
clock speed about 1/7 of the time:

time.c: Detected 2660.005 MHz processor. (most of the time)
time.c: Detected 2988.203 MHz processor. (sometime)

The problem is caused by an SMI interrupt occuring in hpet_calibrate_tsc()
between the read of the HPET & TSC. Prior to switching the BIOS into
ACPI mode, it appears that every 27msec an SMI interrupt occurs. The
SMI interrupt takes 4.8 msec to process.

Note: On my test system, TICK_MIN had to be >380. I picked 5000
to minimize risk of having a value that is too small for other
platforms.

Alexander Bigga [Thu, 21 Dec 2006 10:25:19 +0000 (11:25 +0100)]
[MIPS] Alchemy:  Fix PCI-memory access

    The problem was introduced in 2.6.18.3 with the casting of some
    36bit-defines (PCI memory) in au1000.h to resource_size_t which may be
    u32 or u64 depending on the experimental CONFIG_RESOURCES_64BIT.

    With unset CONFIG_RESOURCES_64BIT, the pci-memory cannot be accessed
    because the ioremap in arch/mips/au1000/common/pci.c already used the
    truncated addresses.
    With set CONFIG_RESOURCES_64BIT, things get even worse, because PCI-scan
    aborts, due to resource conflict: request_resource() in arch/mips/pci/pci.c
    fails because the maximum iomem-address is 0xffffffff (32bit) but the
    pci-memory-start-address is 0x440000000 (36bit).

    To get pci working again, I propose the following patch:

    1. remove the resource_size_t-casting from au1000.h again
    2. make the casting in arch/mips/au1000/common/pci.c (it's allowed and
    necessary here. The 36bit-handling will be done in __fixup_bigphys_addr).

    With this patch pci works again like in 2.6.18.2, the gcc-compile warnings
    in pci.c are gone and it doesn't depend on CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL.

ieee1394: sbp2: fix probing of some DVD-ROM/RWs

Since commit 98e238cd42be6c0852da519303cf0182690f8d9f in Linux 2.6.19,
"ieee1394: sbp2: don't prefer MODE SENSE 10", some FireWire DVD-ROMs and
DVD-RWs were mistaken as CD-ROM because sr_mod now sent MODE SENSE 6.
The MMC command set includes only MODE SENSE 10.
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7800

This fix lets sbp2 switch scsi_device.use_10_for_rw on for MMC LUs.
This should rather be done in the command set driver sr_mod, not in the
