HW breakpoints events stopped working correctly with kgdb as a result
of commit: 018cbffe6819f6f8db20a0a3acd9bab9bfd667e4 (Merge commit
'v2.6.33' into perf/core), later commit:
ba773f7c510c0b252145933926c636c439889207 (x86,kgdb: Fix hw breakpoint
regression) allowed breakpoints to propagate to the debugger core but
did not completely address the original regression in functionality
found in 2.6.35.When the DR_STEP flag is set in dr6 along with any of the DR_TRAP
bits, the kgdb exception handler will enter once from the
hw_breakpoint API call back and again from the die notifier for
do_debug(), which causes the debugger to stop twice and also for the
kgdb regression tests to fail running under kvm with:echo V2I1 > /sys/module/kgdbts/parameters/kgdbts
To address the problem, the kgdb overflow handler needs to implement
the same logic as the ptrace overflow handler call back with respect
to updating the virtual copy of dr6. This will allow the kgdb
do_debug() die notifier to properly handle the exception and the
attached debugger, or kgdb test suite, will only receive a single
notification.Signed-off-by: Jason Wessel

ATA devices don't send D2H Reg FIS after an successful ATA PIO data-in
command. The host is supposed to take the TF and E_Status of the
preceding PIO Setup FIS. Update ahci_qc_fill_rtf() such that it takes
TF + E_Status from PIO Setup FIS after a successful ATA PIO data-in
command.Without this patch, result_tf for such a command is filled with the
content of the previous D2H Reg FIS which belongs to a previous
command, which can make the command incorrectly seen as failed.* Patch updated to grab the whole TF + E_Status from PIO Setup FIS
instead of just E_Status as suggested by Robert Hancock.Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo

Now that libata provides proper cross-port EH exclusion. The SIDPR
locking added by commit 213373cf (ata_piix: fix locking around SIDPR
access) is no longer necessary. Remove it.Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo
Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik -
In libata, the non-EH code paths should always take and release
ap->lock explicitly when accessing hardware or shared data structures.
However, once EH is active, it's assumed that the port is owned by EH
and EH methods don't explicitly take ap->lock unless race from irq
handler or other code paths are expected. However, libata EH didn't
guarantee exclusion among EHs for ports of the same host. IOW,
multiple EHs may execute in parallel on multiple ports of the same
controller.In many cases, especially in SATA, the ports are completely
independent of each other and this doesn't cause problems; however,
there are cases where different ports share the same resource, which
lead to obscure timing related bugs such as the one fixed by commit
213373cf (ata_piix: fix locking around SIDPR access).This patch implements exclusion among EHs of the same host. When EH
begins, it acquires per-host EH ownership by calling ata_eh_acquire().
When EH finishes, the ownership is released by calling
ata_eh_release(). EH ownership is also released whenever the EH
thread goes to sleep from ata_msleep() or explicitly and reacquired
after waking up.This ensures that while EH is actively accessing the hardware, it has
exclusive access to it while allowing EHs to interleave and progress
in parallel as they hit waiting stages, which dominate the time spent
in EH. This achieves cross-port EH exclusion without pervasive and
fragile changes while still allowing parallel EH for the most part.This was first reported by yuanding02@gmail.com more than three years
ago in the following bugzilla. :-)https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8223

Now that DIPM can be used independently from HIPM, ata_piix can

Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik -
Port multipliers can do DIPM on fan-out links fine. Implement support
for it. Tested w/ SIMG 57xx and marvell PMPs. Both the host and
fan-out links enter power save modes nicely.SIMG 37xx and 47xx report link offline on SStatus causing EH to detach
the devices. Blacklisted.Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo
Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik -
The current LPM implementation has the following issues.
* Operation order isn't well thought-out. e.g. HIPM should be
configured after IPM in SControl is properly configured. Not the
other way around.* Suspend/resume paths call ata_lpm_enable/disable() which must only
be called from EH context directly. Also, ata_lpm_enable/disable()
were called whether LPM was in use or not.* Implementation is per-port when it should be per-link. As a result,
it can't be used for controllers with slave links or PMP.* LPM state isn't managed consistently. After a link reset for
whatever reason including suspend/resume the actual LPM state would
be reset leaving ap->lpm_policy inconsistent.* Generic/driver-specific logic boundary isn't clear. Currently,
libahci has to mangle stuff which libata EH proper should be
handling. This makes the implementation unnecessarily complex and
fragile.* Tied to ALPM. Doesn't consider DIPM only cases and doesn't check
whether the device allows HIPM.* Error handling isn't implemented.
Given the extent of mismatch with the rest of libata, I don't think
trying to fix it piecewise makes much sense. This patch reimplements
LPM support.* The new implementation is per-link. The target policy is still
port-wide (ap->target_lpm_policy) but all the mechanisms and states
are per-link and integrate well with the rest of link abstraction
and can work with slave and PMP links.* Core EH has proper control of LPM state. LPM state is reconfigured
when and only when reconfiguration is necessary. It makes sure that
LPM state is reset when probing for new device on the link.
Controller agnostic logic is now implemented in libata EH proper and
driver implementation only has to deal with controller specifics.* Proper error handling. LPM config failure is attributed to the
device on the link and LPM is disabled for the link if it fails
repeatedly.* ops->enable/disable_pm() are replaced with single ops->set_lpm()
which takes @policy and @hints. This simplifies driver specific
implementation.Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo

The function __init ata_init() references

This is often seen when error handling in the init function
uses functionality in the exit path.
The fix is often to remove the __exit annotation of
ata_sff_exit() so it may be used outside an exit section.Sure enough, dropping the __exit fixes the problem.
