  • CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option. As a result, the __dev*
    markings need to be removed.

    This change removes the use of __devinit, __devexit_p, __devinitdata,
    __devinitconst, and __devexit from these drivers.

    Based on patches originally written by Bill Pemberton, but redone by me
    in order to handle some of the coding style issues better, by hand.

  • The build warns:

    drivers/scsi/qlogicpti.c: In function 'qpti_sbus_probe':
    drivers/scsi/qlogicpti.c:1316:45: warning: passing argument 1 of 'scsi_host_alloc' discards 'const' qualifier from pointer target type [enabled by default]
    include/scsi/scsi_host.h:778:26: note: expected 'struct scsi_host_template *' but argument is of type 'const struct scsi_host_template *'

    The problem is that of_device_id->data is a const void pointer.

    This is pretty silly in this specific instance, because for all
    matched device IDs we set match->data to the same value,
    &qpti_template.

    So just use that directly instead of the unnecessary and improperly
    typed abstraction.

  • qlogicpti times out for some tape library operations (like mtx
    inventory). It seems SCSI command timeout is hardcoded into the driver.
    Fix it by propagating the timeout from scsi request to the controller as
    suggested by James Bottomley.

    Tested on Sun Ultra 1 with Sun StorEdge L8 Autoloader.

  • Commit b826291c, "drivercore/dt: add a match table pointer to struct
    device" added an of_match pointer to struct device to cache the
    of_match_table entry discovered at driver match time. This was unsafe
    because matching is not an atomic operation with probing a driver. If
    two or more drivers are attempted to be matched to a driver at the
    same time, then the cached matching entry pointer could get
    overwritten.

    This patch reverts the of_match cache pointer and reworks all users to
    call of_match_device() directly instead.

  • Move the mid-layer's ->queuecommand() invocation from being locked
    with the host lock to being unlocked to facilitate speeding up the
    critical path for drivers who don't need this lock taken anyway.

    The patch below presents a simple SCSI host lock push-down as an
    equivalent transformation. No locking or other behavior should change
    with this patch. All existing bugs and locking orders are preserved.

    Additionally, add one parameter to queuecommand,
    struct Scsi_Host *
    and remove one parameter from queuecommand,
    void (*done)(struct scsi_cmnd *)

    Scsi_Host* is a convenient pointer that most host drivers need anyway,
    and 'done' is redundant to struct scsi_cmnd->scsi_done.

    Minimal code disturbance was attempted with this change. Most drivers
    needed only two one-line modifications for their host lock push-down.

  • Both of_bus_type and of_platform_bus_type are just #define aliases
    for the platform bus. This patch removes all references to them and
    switches to the of_register_platform_driver()/of_unregister_platform_driver()
    API for registering.

    Subsequent patches will convert each user of of_register_platform_driver()
    into plain platform_drivers without the of_platform_driver shim. At which

    functions can be removed.

  • This patch moves SPARC architecture specific data members out of
    struct of_device and into the pdev_archdata structure. The reason
    for this change is to unify the struct of_device definition amongst
    all the architectures. It also remvoes the .sysdata, .slot, .portid
    and .clock_freq properties because they aren't actually used by
    anything.

    A subsequent patch will replace struct of_device entirely with struct
    platform_device and the of_platform support code will share common
    routines with the platform bus (but the bus instances themselves can
    remain separate).

    This patch also adds 'struct resources *resource' and num_resources
    to match the fields defined in struct platform_device. After this
    change, 'struct platform_device' can be used as a drop-in replacement
    for 'struct of_platform'.

    This change is in preparation for merging the of_platform_bus_type
    with the platform_bus_type.

  • .name, .match_table and .owner are duplicated in both of_platform_driver
    and device_driver. This patch is a removes the extra copies from struct
    of_platform_driver and converts all users to the device_driver members.

    This patch is a pretty mechanical change. The usage model doesn't change
    and if any drivers have been missed, or if anything has been fixed up
    incorrectly, then it will fail with a compile time error, and the fixup
    will be trivial. This patch looks big and scary because it touches so
    many files, but it should be pretty safe.

  • …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.

    Well the second 7-group and on is a bug because sg pointer does not advance.

  • 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.

  • This ugly hack was long overdue to die.

    It was a way to print out Sparc interrupts in a more freindly format,
    since IRQ numbers were arbitrary opaque 32-bit integers which vectored
    into PIL levels. These 32-bit integers were not necessarily in the
    0-->NR_IRQS range, but the PILs they vectored to were.

    The idea now is that we will increase NR_IRQS a little bit and use a
    virtualreal IRQ number mapping scheme similar to PowerPC.

    That makes this IRQ printing hack irrelevant, and furthermore only a
    handful of drivers actually used __irq_itoa() making it even less
    useful.
