      powerpc/83xx: Fix MCU support merge issue in mpc8349emitx.dts · dafdb613
      Anton Vorontsov 提交于
      Just found the merge issue in 44274698
      ("powerpc/83xx: Add support for MCU microcontroller in .dts files"):
      the commit adds the MCU controller node into the DMA node, which is
      wrong because the MCU sits on the I2C bus. Fix this by moving the MCU
      node into the I2C controller node.
      
      The original patch[1] was OK though. ;-)

      block: fix setting of max_segment_size and seg_boundary mask · 0e435ac2
      Milan Broz 提交于
      Fix setting of max_segment_size and seg_boundary mask for stacked md/dm
      devices.
      
      When stacking devices (LVM over MD over SCSI) some of the request queue
      parameters are not set up correctly in some cases by default, namely
      max_segment_size and and seg_boundary mask.
      
      If you create MD device over SCSI, these attributes are zeroed.
      
      Problem become when there is over this mapping next device-mapper mapping
      - queue attributes are set in DM this way:
      
      request_queue   max_segment_size  seg_boundary_mask
      SCSI                65536             0xffffffff
      MD RAID1                0                      0
      LVM                 65536                 -1 (64bit)
      
      Unfortunately bio_add_page (resp.  bio_phys_segments) calculates number of
      physical segments according to these parameters.
      
      During the generic_make_request() is segment cout recalculated and can
      increase bio->bi_phys_segments count over the allowed limit.  (After
      bio_clone() in stack operation.)
      
      Thi is specially problem in CCISS driver, where it produce OOPS here
      
          BUG_ON(creq->nr_phys_segments > MAXSGENTRIES);
      
      (MAXSEGENTRIES is 31 by default.)
      
      Sometimes even this command is enough to cause oops:
      
        dd iflag=direct if=/dev/<vg>/<lv> of=/dev/null bs=128000 count=10
      
      This command generates bios with 250 sectors, allocated in 32 4k-pages
      (last page uses only 1024 bytes).
      
      For LVM layer, it allocates bio with 31 segments (still OK for CCISS),
      unfortunatelly on lower layer it is recalculated to 32 segments and this
      violates CCISS restriction and triggers BUG_ON().
      
      The patch tries to fix it by:
      
       * initializing attributes above in queue request constructor
         blk_queue_make_request()
      
       * make sure that blk_queue_stack_limits() inherits setting
      
       (DM uses its own function to set the limits because it
       blk_queue_stack_limits() was introduced later.  It should probably switch
       to use generic stack limit function too.)
      
       * sets the default seg_boundary value in one place (blkdev.h)
      
       * use this mask as default in DM (instead of -1, which differs in 64bit)

      block: internal dequeue shouldn't start timer · 53a08807
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      blkdev_dequeue_request() and elv_dequeue_request() are equivalent and
      both start the timeout timer.  Barrier code dequeues the original
      barrier request but doesn't passes the request itself to lower level
      driver, only broken down proxy requests; however, as the original
      barrier code goes through the same dequeue path and timeout timer is
      started on it.  If barrier sequence takes long enough, this timer
      expires but the low level driver has no idea about this request and
      oops follows.
      
      Timeout timer shouldn't have been started on the original barrier
      request as it never goes through actual IO.  This patch unexports
      elv_dequeue_request(), which has no external user anyway, and makes it
      operate on elevator proper w/o adding the timer and make
      blkdev_dequeue_request() call elv_dequeue_request() and add timer.
      Internal users which don't pass the request to driver - barrier code
      and end_that_request_last() - are converted to use
      elv_dequeue_request().

      mapping.  Which is good if pages were mapped - but if they were provided
      by someone else and just copied then bad things happen - pages are
      released once here, and once by caller, leading to user triggerable BUG
