      [SCSI] remove use_sg_chaining · d3f46f39
      James Bottomley 提交于
      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.

      [PATCH] getting rid of all casts of k[cmz]alloc() calls · 5cbded58
      Robert P. J. Day 提交于
      Run this:
      
      	#!/bin/sh
      	for f in $(grep -Erl "\([^\)]*\) *k[cmz]alloc" *) ; do
      	  echo "De-casting $f..."
      	  perl -pi -e "s/ ?= ?\([^\)]*\) *(k[cmz]alloc) *\(/ = \1\(/" $f
      	done
      
      And then go through and reinstate those cases where code is casting pointers
      to non-pointers.
      
      And then drop a few hunks which conflicted with outstanding work.

      Various drivers' irq handlers: kill dead code, needless casts · c7bec5ab

      - Eliminate casts to/from void*
      
      - Eliminate checks for conditions that never occur.  These typically
        fall into two classes:
      
      	1) Checking for 'dev_id == NULL', then it is never called with
      	NULL as an argument.
      
      	2) Checking for invalid irq number, when the only caller (the
      	system) guarantees the irq handler is called with the proper
      	'irq' number argument.

      IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlers · 7d12e780
      David Howells 提交于
      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.

      [SCSI] dc395x: dynamically map scatter-gather for PIO · cdb8c2a6
      Guennadi Liakhovetski 提交于
      The current dc395x driver uses PIO to transfer up to 4 bytes which do not
      get transferred by DMA (under unclear circumstances). For this the driver
      uses page_address() which is broken on highmem. Apart from this the
      actual calculation of the virtual address is wrong (even without highmem).
      So, e.g., for reading it reads bytes from the driver to a wrong address
      and returns wrong data, I guess, for writing it would just output random
      data to the device.
      
      The proper fix, as suggested by many, is to dynamically map data using
      kmap_atomic(page, KM_BIO_SRC_IRQ) / kunmap_atomic(virt). The reason why it
      has not been done until now, although I've done some preliminary patches
      more than a year ago was that nobody interested in fixing this problem was
      able to reliably reproduce it. Now it changed - with the help from
      Sebastian Frei (CC'ed) I was able to trigger the PIO path. Thus, I was
      also able to test and debug it.
      
      There are 4 cases when PIO is used in dc395x - data-in / -out with and
      without scatter-gather. I was able to reproduce and test only data-in with
      and without SG. So, the data-out path is still untested, but it is also
      somewhat simpler than the data-in. Fredrik Roubert (also CC'ed) also had
      PIO triggering on his system, and in his case it was data-out without SG.
      It would be great if he could test the attached patch on his system, but
      even if he cannot, I would still request to apply the patch and just wait
      if anybody cries...
      
      Implementation: I put 2 new functions in scsi_lib.c and their declarations
      in scsi_cmnd.h. I exported them without _GPL, although, I don't feel
      strongly about that - not many drivers are likely to use them. But there
      is at least one more - I want to use them in tmscsim.c. Whether these are
      the right files for the functions and their declarations - not sure
      either. Actually, they are not scsi-specific, so, might go somewhere
      around other scattergather magic? They are not platform specific either,
      and most SG functions are defined under arch/*/... As these issues were
      discussed previously there were some more routines suggested to manipulate
      scattergather buffers, I think, some of them were needed around
      crypto code... So, might be a common place reasonable, like
      lib/scattergather.c? I am open here.

      Linux-2.6.12-rc2 · 1da177e4
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
      even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
      archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
      3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
      git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
      infrastructure for it.
      
      Let it rip!
