      Revert "rtc: Expire alarms after the time is set." · f423fc62
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      This reverts commit 93b2ec01.
      
      The call to "schedule_work()" in rtc_initialize_alarm() happens too
      early, and can cause oopses at bootup
      
      Neil Brown explains why we do it:
      
        "If you set an alarm in the future, then shutdown and boot again after
         that time, then you will end up with a timer_queue node which is in
         the past.
      
         When this happens the queue gets stuck.  That entry-in-the-past won't
         get removed until and interrupt happens and an interrupt won't happen
         because the RTC only triggers an interrupt when the alarm is "now".
      
         So you'll find that e.g.  "hwclock" will always tell you that
         'select' timed out.
      
         So we force the interrupt work to happen at the start just in case."
      
      and has a patch that convert it to do things in-process rather than with
      the worker thread, but right now it's too late to play around with this,
      so we just revert the patch that caused problems for now.

      Revert "rtc: Disable the alarm in the hardware" · 157e8bf8
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      This reverts commit c0afabd3.
      
      It causes failures on Toshiba laptops - instead of disabling the alarm,
      it actually seems to enable it on the affected laptops, resulting in
      (for example) the laptop powering on automatically five minutes after
      shutdown.
      
      There's a patch for it that appears to work for at least some people,
      but it's too late to play around with this, so revert for now and try
      again in the next merge window.

      watchdog: iTCO_wdt.c - problems with newer hardware due to SMI clearing (part 2) · 0d098587
      Wim Van Sebroeck 提交于
      Redhat Bugzilla: Bug 727875 - TCO_EN bit is disabled by TCO driver
      
      The previous patch breaks reset watchdog behaviour on the older hardware.
      It is therefor better to make sure that the behaviour for older hardware (<=ICH5 or
      6300ESB) is preserved and that the behaviour for newer hardware is changed.
      We therefor use the iTCO_version to see if we need the clearing of the SMI_TCO_EN
      bit in the SMI_EN register.
      
      So the new behaviour becomes:
      turn_SMI_watchdog_clear_off=0 -> Do not turn off SMI clearing watchdog.
      turn_SMI_watchdog_clear_off=1 -> Turn off SMI clearing watchdog when iTCO_version=1
      				 (ICHO till ICH5 + 6300ESB only)
      turn_SMI_watchdog_clear_off=2 -> Turn off SMI clearing watchdog.

      md/bitmap: It is OK to clear bits during recovery. · 961902c0
      NeilBrown 提交于
      commit d0a4bb49 introduced a
      regression which is annoying but fairly harmless.
      
      When writing to an array that is undergoing recovery (a spare
      in being integrated into the array), writing to the array will
      set bits in the bitmap, but they will not be cleared when the
      write completes.
      
      For bits covering areas that have not been recovered yet this is not a
      problem as the recovery will clear the bits.  However bits set in
      already-recovered region will stay set and never be cleared.
      This doesn't risk data integrity.  The only negatives are:
       - next time there is a crash, more resyncing than necessary will
         be done.
       - the bitmap doesn't look clean, which is confusing.
      
      While an array is recovering we don't want to update the
      'events_cleared' setting in the bitmap but we do still want to clear
      bits that have very recently been set - providing they were written to
      the recovering device.
      
      So split those two needs - which previously both depended on 'success'
      and always clear the bit of the write went to all devices.

      md: don't give up looking for spares on first failure-to-add · 60fc1370
      NeilBrown 提交于
      Before performing a recovery we try to remove any spares that
      might not be working, then add any that might have become relevant.
      
      Currently we abort on the first spare that cannot be added.
      This is a false optimisation.
      It is conceivable that - depending on rules in the personality - a
      subsequent spare might be accepted.
      Also the loop does other things like count the available spares and
      reset the 'recovery_offset' value.
      
      If we abort early these might not happen properly.
      
      So remove the early abort.
      
      In particular if you have an array what is undergoing recovery and
      which has extra spares, then the recovery may not restart after as
      reboot as the could of 'spares' might end up as zero.

      md/raid5: ensure correct assessment of drives during degraded reshape. · 30d7a483
      NeilBrown 提交于
      While reshaping a degraded array (as when reshaping a RAID0 by first
      converting it to a degraded RAID4) we currently get confused about
      which devices are in_sync.  In most cases we get it right, but in the
      region that is being reshaped we need to treat non-failed devices as
      in-sync when we have the data but haven't actually written it out yet.

      md/linear: fix hot-add of devices to linear arrays. · 09cd9270
      NeilBrown 提交于
      commit d70ed2e4
      broke hot-add to a linear array.
      After that commit, metadata if not written to devices until they
      have been fully integrated into the array as determined by
      saved_raid_disk.  That patch arranged to clear that field after
      a recovery completed.
      
      However for linear arrays, there is no recovery - the integration is
      instantaneous.  So we need to explicitly clear the saved_raid_disk
      field.
