  • If null_blk is run in NULL_IRQ_TIMER mode and with queue_mode NULL_Q_RQ,
    we need to restart the queue from the hrtimer interrupt. We can't
    directly invoke the request_fn from that context, so punt the queue run
    to async kblockd context.

  • This patch fixes a lost request discovered during IO + hot removal.

    The driver's pci removal deletes gendisks prior to shutting down the
    controller to allow dirty data to sync. Dirty data can not be synced on
    a surprise removal, though, and would potentially block indefinitely.

    The driver previously had marked the queue as dying in this scenario
    to prevent new requests from attempting, however it will still block
    for requests that already entered the queue. This patch fixes this by
    quiescing IO first, then aborting the requeued requests before deleting
    disks.

  • Conversion of MTRRs to ranges used the maxphyaddr from the boot CPU.
    This is wrong, because var_mtrr_range's mask variable then is discontiguous
    (like FF00FFFF000, where the first run of 0s corresponds to the bits
    between host and guest maxphyaddr). Instead always set up the masks
    to be full 64-bit values---we know that the reserved bits at the top
    are zero, and we can restore them when reading the MSR. This way
    var_mtrr_range gets a mask that just works.

  • This fix alters the ordering of the IRQ and device registrations in the RTC
    driver probe function. This change will apply to the RTC driver that supports
    both DA9063 and DA9062 PMICs.

    A problem could occur with the existing RTC driver if:

    A system is started from a cold boot using the PMIC RTC IRQ to initiate a
    power on operation. For instance, if an RTC alarm is used to start a
    platform from power off.
    The existing driver IRQ is requested before the device has been properly
    registered.
    i.e.
    ret = devm_request_threaded_irq()
    comes before
    rtc->rtc_dev = devm_rtc_device_register();

    In this case, the interrupt can be called before the device has been
    registered and the handler can be called immediately. The IRQ handler
    da9063_alarm_event() contains the function call

    rtc_update_irq(rtc->rtc_dev, 1, RTC_IRQF | RTC_AF);

    which in turn tries to access the unavailable rtc->rtc_dev.

    The fix is to reorder the functions inside the RTC probe. The IRQ is
    requested after the RTC device resource has been registered so that
    get_irq_byname is the last thing to happen.

  • In A.D. 1582 Pope Gregory XIII found that the existing Julian calendar
    insufficiently represented reality, and changed the rules about
    calculating leap years to account for this. Similarly, in A.D. 2013
    Rockchip hardware engineers found that the new Gregorian calendar still
    contained flaws, and that the month of November should be counted up to
    31 days instead. Unfortunately it takes a long time for calendar changes
    to gain widespread adoption, and just like more than 300 years went by
    before the last Protestant nation implemented Greg's proposal, we will
    have to wait a while until all religions and operating system kernels
    acknowledge the inherent advantages of the Rockchip system. Until then
    we need to translate dates read from (and written to) Rockchip hardware
    back to the Gregorian format.

    This patch works by defining Jan 1st, 2016 as the arbitrary anchor date
    on which Rockchip and Gregorian calendars are in sync. From that we can
    translate arbitrary later dates back and forth by counting the number
    of November/December transitons since the anchor date to determine the
    offset between the calendars. We choose this method (rather than trying
    to regularly "correct" the date stored in hardware) since it's the only
    way to ensure perfect time-keeping even if the system may be shut down
    for an unknown number of years. The drawback is that other software
    reading the same hardware (e.g. mainboard firmware) must use the same
    translation convention (including the same anchor date) to be able to
    read and write correct timestamps from/to the RTC.

    use pm_runtime_get_sync/put to achieve this, since it has proper
