  • Add missing call to gdth_ioctl_free before aborting.

    The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows:

  • …it slab.h inclusion from percpu.h

    percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
    included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
    in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
    universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

    percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
    this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
    headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
    needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
    used as the basis of conversion.

    http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

    The script does the followings.

    * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
    only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
    gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

    * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
    blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
    to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
    core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
    alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
    doesn't seem to be any matching order.

    * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
    because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
    an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
    file.

    The conversion was done in the following steps.

    1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
    over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
    and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
    files.

    2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
    some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
    embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
    inclusions to around 150 files.

    3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
    from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

    4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
    e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
    APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

    5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
    editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
    files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
    inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
    wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
    slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
    necessary.

    6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

    7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
    were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
    distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
    more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
    build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

    * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
    * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
    * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
    * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
    * s390 SMP allmodconfig
    * alpha SMP allmodconfig
    * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

    8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
    a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

    Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
    6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
    If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
    headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
    the specific arch.

  • Right now SCSI and others do their own command timeout handling.
    Move those bits to the block layer.

    Instead of having a timer per command, we try to be a bit more clever
    and simply have one per-queue. This avoids the overhead of having to
    tear down and setup a timer for each command, so it will result in a lot
    less timer fiddling.

  • The spinlock is held over too large a region: pscratch is a permanent
    address (it's allocated at boot time and never changes). All you need
    the smp lock for is mediating the scratch in use flag, so fix this by
    moving the spinlock into the case where we set the pscratch_busy flag
    to false.

  • - Cleanup the rest of the scsi_cmnd->SCp members and move them
    to gdth_cmndinfo:
    SCp.this_residual => priority
    SCp.buffers_residual => timeout
    SCp.Status => status and dma_dir
    SCp.Message => info
    SCp.have_data_in => volatile wait_for_completion
    SCp.sent_command => OpCode
    SCp.phase => phase

    - Two more members will be naturally removed in the !use_sg cleanup

    TODO: What is the meaning of gdth_cmndinfo.phase? (rhetorically)

  • - scsi_cmnd and specifically ->SCp of, where heavily abused
    with internal meaning members and flags. So introduce a new
    struct gdth_cmndinfo, put it on ->host_scribble and define a
    gdth_cmnd_priv() accessor to retrieve it from a scsi_cmnd.

    - The structure now holds two members:
    internal_command - replaces the IS_GDTH_INTERNAL_CMD() croft.
    sense_paddr - which was a 64-bit spanning on 2 32-bit members of SCp.
    More overloaded members from SCp and scsi_cmnd will be moved in a later
    patch (For easy review).

    - Split up gdth_queuecommand to an additional internal_function. The later
    is the one called by gdth_execute(). This will be more evident later in
    the scsi accessors patch, but it also facilitates in the differentiation
    between internal_command and external. And the setup of gdth_cmndinfo of
    each command.

    - Get rid of all the indirection in the Scsi_Host private data and always
    put the gdth_ha_str directly into it.

    pointer directlly and kill all that redundent access to the "gdth_ctr_tab[]"

  • The virt_ctr option allows to register a new scsi_host for each bus
    on the raid controller. This non-default option makes no sense with
    the current scsi code and prevents cleaning up the host registration,
    so remove it.

    various kernel archives, and changelogs should exist purely in git.

    * Remove 2.4.x kernel support. It is an active obstacle to
    modernizing this driver, at this point. This includes killing
    gdth_kcompat.h which is 100% redundant in modern kernels.

  • The ->done member was being used to mark commands as being internal.
    I decided to put a magic number in ->underflow instead. I believe this
    to be safe as no current user of ->underflow has any of the bottom 9
    bits set.

  • Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
    even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
    archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
    3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
    git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
    infrastructure for it.

    Let it rip!
