IB/iser: Don't defer connection failure notification to workqueue

When a connection is terminated asynchronously from the iSCSI layer's
perspective, iSER needs to notify the iSCSI layer that the connection
has failed.  This is done using a workqueue (switched to from the iSER
tasklet context).  Meanwhile, the connection object (that holds the
work struct) is released.  If the workqueue function wasn't called
yet, it will be called later with a NULL pointer, which will crash the
kernel.

The context switch (tasklet to workqueue) is not required, and
everything can be done from the iSER tasklet. This eliminates the NULL
work struct bug (and simplifies the code).

[PATCH] fix jiffies clocksource inittime

In debugging a problem w/ the -rt tree, I noticed that on systems that mark
the tsc as unstable before it is registered, the TSC would still be
selected and used for a short period of time.  Digging in it looks to be a
result of the mix of the clocksource list changes and my clocksource
initialization changes.

With the -rt tree, using a bad TSC, even for a short period of time can
results in a hang at boot.  I was not able to reproduce this hang w/
mainline, but I'm not completely certain that someone won't trip on it.

This patch resolves the issue by initializing the jiffies clocksource
earlier so a bad TSC won't get selected just because nothing else is yet
registered.

[PATCH] net: Ignore sysfs network device rename bugs.

The generic networking code ensures that no two networking devices
have the same name, so  there is no time except when sysfs has
implementation bugs that device_rename when called from
dev_change_name will fail.

The current error handling for errors from device_rename in
dev_change_name is wrong and results in an unusable and unrecoverable
network device if device_rename is happens to return an error.

This patch removes the buggy error handling.  Which confines the mess
when device_rename hits a problem to sysfs, instead of propagating it
the rest of the network stack.  Making linux a little more robust.

Without this patch you can observe what happens when sysfs has a bug
when CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED is not set and you attempt to rename
a real network device to a name like (broken_parity_status, device,
modalias, power, resource2, subsystem_vendor, class,  driver, irq,
msi_bus, resource, subsystem, uevent, config, enable, local_cpus,
numa_node, resource0, subsystem_device, vendor)

Greg has a patch that fixes the sysfs bugs but he doesn't trust it
for a 2.6.21 timeframe.  This patch which just ignores errors should
be safe and it keeps the system from going completely wacky.

the "nasty and subtle race in shared mmap'ed page writeback"
problem in clear_page_dirty_for_io cause data corruption on s390.

The effect of the two changes is that for every call to
clear_page_dirty_for_io a page_test_and_clear_dirty is done. If
the per page dirty bit is set set_page_dirty is called. Strangly
clear_page_dirty_for_io is called for not-uptodate pages, e.g.
over this call-chain:

 [<000000000007c0f2>] clear_page_dirty_for_io+0x12a/0x130

 [<000000000007cca2>] pdflush+0x162/0x23c

The bad news now is that page_test_and_clear_dirty might claim
that a not-uptodate page is dirty since SetPageUptodate which
resets the per page dirty bit has not yet been called. The page
writeback that follows clobbers the data on disk.

The simplest solution to this problem is to move the call to
page_test_and_clear_dirty under the "if (page_mapped(page))".
If a file backed page is mapped it is uptodate.

r8169: fix suspend/resume for down interface

The PM hooks are no-op if the r8169 interface is down (i.e. !IFF_UP).
However, as the chipset is enabled, the device will not work after a
suspend/resume cycle. The patch always issue the required PCI suspend
sequence and removes the module unload/reload workaround.

b44: fix IFF_ALLMULTI handling of CAM slots

If you set the IFF_ALLMULTI flag on a b44 device, or if you join more than
B44_MCAST_TABLE_SIZE multicast groups, the device will stop receiving unicast

Eric W. Biederman [Tue, 3 Apr 2007 07:41:49 +0000 (01:41 -0600)]
[PATCH] msi: synchronously mask and unmask msi-x irqs.

This is a simplified and actually more comprehensive form of a bug
fix from Mitch Williams <mitch.a.williams@intel.com>.

When we mask or unmask a msi-x irqs the writes may be posted because
we are writing to memory mapped region.  This means the mask and
unmask don't happen immediately but at some unspecified time in the
future.  Which is out of sync with how the mask/unmask logic work
for ioapic irqs.

The practical result is that we get very subtle and hard to track down
irq migration bugs.

This patch performs a read flush after writes to the MSI-X table for mask
and unmask operations.  Since the SMP affinity is set while the interrupt
is masked, and since it's unmasked immediately after, no additional flushes
are required in the various affinity setting routines.

The testing by Mitch Williams on his especially problematic system should
still be valid as I have only simplified the code, not changed the
functionality.

We currently have 7 drivers: cciss, mthca, cxgb3, forceth, s2io,
pcie/portdrv_core, and qla2xxx in 2.6.21 that are affected by this
problem when the hardware they driver is plugged into the right slot.

Given the difficulty of reproducing this bug and tracing it down to
anything that even remotely resembles a cause, even if people are
being affected we aren't likely to see many meaningful bug reports, and
the people who see this bug aren't likely to be able to reproduce this
bug in a timely fashion.  So it is best to get this problem fixed
as soon as we can so people don't have problems.

Then if people do have a kernel message stating "No irq for vector" we
will know it is yet another novel cause that needs a complete new
investigation.

[SCSI]: Fix scsi_send_eh_cmnd scatterlist handling

This fixes a regression caused by commit:

2dc611de5a3fd955cd0298c50691d4c05046db97

The sense buffer code in scsi_send_eh_cmnd was changed to use
alloc_page() and a scatter list, but the sense data copy was not
updated to match so what we actually get in the sense buffer is total
grabage starting with the kernel address of the struct page we got.
Basically the stack frame of scsi_send_eh_cmd() is what ends up
in the sense buffer.

Depending upon how pointers look on a given platform, you can
end up getting sr_ioctl.c errors when you mount a cdrom.  If
the CDROM gives a check condition for GPCMD_GET_CONFIGURATION issued
by drivers/cdrom/cdrom.c:cdrom_mmc_profile(), sr_ioctl will
spit out this error message in sr_do_ioctl() with the way pointers
are on sparc64:

default:
printk(KERN_ERR "%s: CDROM (ioctl) error, command: ", cd->cdi.name);
__scsi_print_command(cgc->cmd);
scsi_print_sense_hdr("sr", &sshdr);
err = -EIO;

This is the error Tom Callaway reported in:

http://marc.info/?l=linux-sparc&m=117407453208101&w=2

Anyways, fix this by using page_address(sgl.page) which is OK
because we know this is low-mem due to GFP_ATOMIC.

this isn't usually fatal which is why we got away with this for so long

[IA64] bugfix stack layout upside-down

ia64 expects following vm layout:

== low memory
[register-stack grows up]
[memory-stack grows down]
== high memory

But the code assigns the base of the register stack at the
maximum stack size offset from the fixed address where the
stack *might* start.  Stack randomization will result in the
memory stack starting at a lower address than this, and if the
user has set a low stack limit with "ulimit -s", then you can
end up with the register stack above the memory stack (or if
you were very unlucky right on top of it!).

Fix: Calculate the base address for the register stack starting
from the actual address of the memory stack.
