I have reviewed all blk-end-request patches again to confirm whether
there are any similar problems with the last week's ide-cd panic:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/1/29/140
And I found a possible similar bug in ide-io change:
ide_end_drive_cmd() could be called for blk_pc_request() which could
have bios. To complete such requests correctly, we need to pass
the actual size of the request.
Otherwise, __blk_end_request() returns 1 because the request still has
bios, and the system will BUG() unnecessarily.
The following patch fixes the bug and should be applied on top of
Linus' git.

There are two problems in the vt220 intialization:
o Currently the vt220 console looses early printk events until the
the vt220 tty is registered.
o console should work if tty_register fails
sclp_vt220_con_init calls __sclp_vt220_init and register_console.
It does not register the driver with the sclp core code via
sclp_register. That results in an sclp_send_mask=0. Therefore,
__sclp_vt220_emit will reject buffers with EIO. Unfortunately
register_console will cause the printk buffer to be sent to the
console and, therefore, every early message gets dropped. The
sclp_send_mask is set later during boot, when sclp_vt220_tty_init
calls sclp_register.
The solution is to move the sclp_register call from sclp_vt220_tty_init
to __sclp_vt220_init. This makes sure that the console is properly
registered with the sclp subsystem before the first log buffer messages
are passed to the vt220 console.
We also adopt the cleanup on error to keep the console alive if
tty_register fails.
Thanks to Peter Oberparleiter and Heiko Carstens for review and ideas
for improvement.

The last posted version of this patch gave compile error
on IA64. So, here goes yet another rewrite of the patch.
Convert cpu_idle_wait() to cpuidle_kick_cpus() which is
SMP-only, and gives error on non supported CPU.
Changes from last patch sent by Kevin:
Moved the definition of kick_cpus back to cpuidle.c from cpuidle.h:
* Having it in .h gives #error on archs which includes the header file without
actually having CPU_IDLE configured. To make it work in .h, we need one more
#ifdef around that code which makes it messy.
* Also, the function is only called from one file. So, it can be in declared
statically in .c rather than making it available to everyone who includes
the .h file.

All current InfiniBand devices can handle all DMA addresses, and it's
hard to imagine anyone would be silly enough to build a new device
that couldn't. Therefore, enable the NETIF_F_HIGHDMA feature for IPoIB.
This has no effect for no, but is needed when we enable gather/scatter
support and checksum stateless offloads.

ConnectX HCA supports shrinking WQEs, so that a single work request
can be made of multiple units of wqe_shift. This way, WRs can differ
in size, and do not have to be a power of 2 in size, saving memory and
speeding up send WR posting. Unfortunately, if we do this then the
wqe_index field in CQEs can't be used to look up the WR ID anymore, so
our implementation does this only if selective signaling is off.
Further, on 32-bit platforms, we can't use vmap() to make the QP
buffer virtually contigious. Thus we have to use constant-sized WRs to
make sure a WR is always fully within a single page-sized chunk.
Finally, we use WRs with the NOP opcode to avoid wrapping around the
queue buffer in the middle of posting a WR, and we set the
NoErrorCompletion bit to avoid getting completions with error for NOP
WRs. However, NEC is only supported starting with firmware 2.2.232,
so we use constant-sized WRs for older firmware. And, since MLX QPs
only support SEND, we use constant-sized WRs in this case.
When stamping during NOP posting, do stamping following setting of the
NOP WQE valid bit.

This is a LED driver using the PWM on newer SOCs from Atmel; brightness is
controlled by changing the PWM duty cycle. So for example if you've set up
two leds labeled "pwm0" and "pwm1":
echo 0 > /sys/class/leds/pwm2/brightness # off (0%)
echo 80 > /sys/class/leds/pwm2/brightness
echo 255 > /sys/class/leds/pwm2/brightness # on (100%)
Note that "brightness" here isn't linear; maybe that should change. Going
from 4 to 8 probably doubles perceived brightness, while 244 to 248 is
imperceptible.
This is mostly intended to be a simple example of PWM, although it's
realistic since LCD backlights are often driven with PWM to conserve
battery power (and offer brightness options).

This patch is based on the DMA-patch by Chip Coldwell for the AT91/AT32 serial
USARTS, with some tweaks to make it apply neatly on top of the other patches
in this series.
The RX and TX code has been moved to a tasklet and reworked a bit. Instead of
depending on the ENDRX and TIMEOUT bits in CSR, we simply grab as much data as
we can from the DMA buffers. I think this closes a race where the ENDRX bit
is set after we read CSR but before we read RPR, although I haven't confirmed
this.
Similarly, the two TX handlers (ENDTX and TXBUFE) have been combined into one.
Since the current code only uses a single TX buffer, there's no point in
handling those interrupts separately.
This also fixes a DMA sync bug in the original patch.

Split up the interrupt handler of the serial port into a interrupt top-half
and a tasklet.
The goal is to get the interrupt top-half as short as possible to minimize
latencies on interrupts. But the old code also does some calls in the
interrupt handler that are not allowed on preempt-RT in IRQF_NODELAY context.
This handler is executed in this context because of the interrupt sharing with
the timer interrupt. The timer interrupt on Preempt-RT runs in IRQF_NODELAY
context.
The tasklet takes care of handling control status changes, pushing incoming
characters to the tty layer, handling break and other errors. It also handles
pushing TX data into the data register.
Reading the complete receive queue is still done in the top-half because we
never want to miss any incoming character.

An AoE target provides an estimate of the number of outstanding commands that
the AoE initiator can send before getting a response. The aoe_maxout
parameter provides a way to set an even lower limit. It will not allow a user
to use more outstanding commands than the target permits. If a user discovers
a problem with a large setting, this parameter provides a way for us to work
with them to debug the problem. We expect to improve the dynamic window
sizing algorithm and drop this parameter. For the time being, it is a
debugging aid.

An aoe driver user who had about 70 AoE targets found that he was hitting a
BUG in sysfs_create_file because the aoe driver was trying to tell the kernel
about an AoE device more than once. Each AoE device was reachable by several
local network interfaces, and multiple ATA device indentify responses were
returning from that single device.
This patch eliminates a race condition so that aoe always informs the block
layer of a new AoE device once in the presence of multiple incoming ATA device
identify responses.

What this Patch Does
Even before this recent series of 12 patches to 2.6.22-rc4, the aoe
driver was reusing a small set of skbs that were allocated once and
were only used for outbound AoE commands.
The network layer cannot be allowed to put_page on the data that is
still associated with a bio we haven't returned to the block layer,
so the aoe driver (even before the patch under discussion) is still
the owner of skbs that have been handed to the network layer for
transmission. We need to keep track of these skbs so that we can
free them, but by tracking them, we can also easily re-use them.
The new patch was a response to the behavior of certain network
drivers. We cannot reuse an skb that the network driver still has
in its transmit ring. Network drivers can defer transmit ring
cleanup and then use the state in the skb to determine how many data
segments to clean up in its transmit ring. The tg3 driver is one
driver that behaves in this way.
When the network driver defers cleanup of its transmit ring, the aoe
driver can find itself in a situation where it would like to send an
AoE command, and the AoE target is ready for more work, but the
network driver still has all of the pre-allocated skbs. In that
case, the new patch just calls alloc_skb, as you'd expect.
We don't want to get carried away, though. We try not to do
excessive allocation in the write path, so we cap the number of skbs
we dynamically allocate.
Probably calling it a "dynamic pool" is misleading. We were already
trying to use a small fixed-size set of pre-allocated skbs before
this patch, and this patch just provides a little headroom (with a
ceiling, though) to accomodate network drivers that hang onto skbs,
by allocating when needed. The d->skbpool_hd list of allocated skbs
is necessary so that we can free them later.
We didn't notice the need for this headroom until AoE targets got
fast enough.
Alternatives
If the network layer never did a put_page on the pages in the bio's
we get from the block layer, then it would be possible for us to
hand skbs to the network layer and forget about them, allowing the
network layer to free skbs itself (and thereby calling our own
skb->destructor callback function if we needed that). In that case
we could get rid of the pre-allocated skbs and also the
d->skbpool_hd, instead just calling alloc_skb every time we wanted
to transmit a packet. The slab allocator would effectively maintain
the list of skbs.
Besides a loss of CPU cache locality, the main concern with that
approach the danger that it would increase the likelihood of
deadlock when VM is trying to free pages by writing dirty data from
the page cache through the aoe driver out to persistent storage on
an AoE device. Right now we have a situation where we have
pre-allocation that corresponds to how much we use, which seems
ideal.
Of course, there's still the separate issue of receiving the packets
that tell us that a write has successfully completed on the AoE
target. When memory is low and VM is using AoE to flush dirty data
to free up pages, it would be perfect if there were a way for us to
register a fast callback that could recognize write command
completion responses. But I don't think the current problems with
the receive side of the situation are a justification for
exacerbating the problem on the transmit side.

When an AoE device is detected, the kernel is informed, and a new block device
is created. If the device is unused, the block device corresponding to remote
device that is no longer available may be removed from the system by telling
the aoe driver to "flush" its list of devices.
Without this patch, software like GPFS and LVM may attempt to read from AoE
devices that were discovered earlier but are no longer present, blocking until
the I/O attempt times out.

A remote AoE device is something can process ATA commands and is identified by
an AoE shelf number and an AoE slot number. Such a device might have more
than one network interface, and it might be reachable by more than one local
network interface. This patch tracks the available network paths available to
each AoE device, allowing them to be used more efficiently.
Andrew Morton asked about the call to msleep_interruptible in the revalidate
function. Yes, if a signal is pending, then msleep_interruptible will not
return 0. That means we will not loop but will call aoenet_xmit with a NULL
skb, which is a noop. If the system is too low on memory or the aoe driver is
too low on frames, then the user can hit control-C to interrupt the attempt to
do a revalidate. I have added a comment to the code summarizing that.
Andrew Morton asked whether the allocation performed inside addtgt could use a
more relaxed allocation like GFP_KERNEL, but addtgt is called when the aoedev
lock has been locked with spin_lock_irqsave. It would be nice to allocate the
memory under fewer restrictions, but targets are only added when the device is
being discovered, and if the target can't be added right now, we can try again
in a minute when then next AoE config query broadcast goes out.
Andrew Morton pointed out that the "too many targets" message could be printed
for failing GFP_ATOMIC allocations. The last patch in this series makes the
messages more specific.

This is a rewrite of the ramdisk block device driver.
The old one is really difficult because it effectively implements a block
device which serves data out of its own buffer cache. It relies on the dirty
bit being set, to pin its backing store in cache, however there are non
trivial paths which can clear the dirty bit (eg. try_to_free_buffers()),
which had recently lead to data corruption. And in general it is completely
wrong for a block device driver to do this.
The new one is more like a regular block device driver. It has no idea about
vm/vfs stuff. It's backing store is similar to the buffer cache (a simple
radix-tree of pages), but it doesn't know anything about page cache (the pages
in the radix tree are not pagecache pages).
There is one slight downside -- direct block device access and filesystem
metadata access goes through an extra copy and gets stored in RAM twice.
However, this downside is only slight, because the real buffercache of the
device is now reclaimable (because we're not playing crazy games with it), so
under memory intensive situations, footprint should effectively be the same --
maybe even a slight advantage to the new driver because it can also reclaim
buffer heads.
The fact that it now goes through all the regular vm/fs paths makes it
much more useful for testing, too.

2837 849 384 4070 fe6 drivers/block/rd.o
3528 371 12 3911 f47 drivers/block/brd.o
Text is larger, but data and bss are smaller, making total size smaller.
A few other nice things about it:
- Similar structure and layout to the new loop device handlinag.
- Dynamic ramdisk creation.
- Runtime flexible buffer head size (because it is no longer part of the
ramdisk code).
- Boot / load time flexible ramdisk size, which could easily be extended
to a per-ramdisk runtime changeable size (eg. with an ioctl).
- Can use highmem for the backing store.
