  • - struct scsi_cmnd had a 16 bytes command buffer of its own.
    This is an unnecessary duplication and copy of request's
    cmd. It is probably left overs from the time that scsi_cmnd
    could function without a request attached. So clean that up.

    - Once above is done, few places, apart from scsi-ml, needed
    adjustments due to changing the data type of scsi_cmnd->cmnd.

    - Lots of drivers still use MAX_COMMAND_SIZE. So I have left
    that #define but equate it to BLK_MAX_CDB. The way I see it
    and is reflected in the patch below is.
    MAX_COMMAND_SIZE - means: The longest fixed-length (*) SCSI CDB
    as per the SCSI standard and is not related
    to the implementation.
    BLK_MAX_CDB. - The allocated space at the request level

    - I have audit all ISA drivers and made sure none use ->cmnd in a DMA
    Operation. Same audit was done by Andi Kleen.

    (*)fixed-length here means commands that their size can be determined
    by their opcode and the CDB does not carry a length specifier, (unlike
    the VARIABLE_LENGTH_CMD(0x7f) command). This is actually not exactly
    true and the SCSI standard also defines extended commands and
    vendor specific commands that can be bigger than 16 bytes. The kernel
    will support these using the same infrastructure used for VARLEN CDB's.
    So in effect MAX_COMMAND_SIZE means the maximum size command
    scsi-ml supports without specifying a cmd_len by ULD's

  • With the sg table code, every SCSI driver is now either chain capable
    or broken (or has sg_tablesize set so chaining is never activated), so
    there's no need to have a check in the host template.

    Also tidy up the code by moving the scatterlist size defines into the
    SCSI includes and permit the last entry of the scatterlist pools not
    to be a power of two.

    other fixes.

    - add more PCI device IDs
    - support for adapters based on Marvell IOP
    - fix a result code translation error on big-endian systems
    - fix resource releasing bug when scsi_host_alloc() fail in hptiop_probe()
    - update scsi_cmnd.resid when finishing a request
    - correct some coding style issues

  • Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
    of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
    Linux kernel.

    The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
    space and code to pass it around. On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
    from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
    (ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).

    Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
    something different with the variable. On FRV, for instance, the address is
    maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
    handling.

    Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
    through up to twenty or so layers of functions. Consider a USB character
    device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
    interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller. A character
    device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
    layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.

    I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386. I've runtested the
    main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
    I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
    with minimal configurations.

    This will affect all archs. Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
    Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:

    struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);

    And put the old one back at the end:

    set_irq_regs(old_regs);

    Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().

    In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:

    - update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
    - profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
    + update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
    + profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);

    I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
    except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().

    Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:

    (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely. The regs pointer is no longer stored in
    the input_dev struct.

    (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking. It does
    something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
    pointer or not.

    (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
    irq_handler_t.

  • The hptiop just got merged with a horrible amount of really bad ioctl
    code that is against the standards for new scsi drivers. This patch
    backs it out (and fixes a small bug where scsi_add_host is called to
    early). We can re-add proper APIs once we agree on them.

  • HighPoint RocketRAID 3220/3320 series 8 channel PCI-X SATA RAID Host
    Adapters.

    Fixes from original submission:

    Merge Andrew Morton's patches:
    - Provide locking for global list
    - Fix debug printks
    - uninline function with multiple callsites
    - coding style fixups
    - remove unneeded casts of void*
    - kfree(NULL) is legal
    - Don't "succeed" if register_chrdev() failed - otherwise we'll later
    unregister a not-registered chrdev.
    - Don't return from hptiop_do_ioctl() with the spinlock held.
    - uninline __hpt_do_ioctl()

    Update for Arjan van de Ven's comments:
    - put all asm/ includes after the linux/ ones
    - replace mdelay with msleep
    - add pci posting flush
    - do not set pci command reqister in map_pci_bar
    - do not try merging sg elements in hptiop_buildsgl()
    - remove unused outstandingcommands member from hba structure
