      xen/blkfront: use blk_rq_map_sg to generate ring entries · 9e973e64

      On occasion, the request will apparently have more segments than we
      fit into the ring. Jens says:

      block: reduce stack footprint of blk_recount_segments() · 1e428079
      Jens Axboe 提交于
      blk_recalc_rq_segments() requires a request structure passed in, which
      we don't have from blk_recount_segments(). So the latter allocates one on
      the stack, using > 400 bytes of stack for that. This can cause us to spill
      over one page of stack from ext4 at least:

      cciss: shorten 30s timeout on controller reset · 5e4c91c8
      Jens Axboe 提交于
      If reset_devices is set for kexec, then cciss will delay 30 seconds
      since the old 5i controller _may_ need that long to recover. Replace
      the long sleep with incremental sleep and tests to reduce the 30 seconds
      to worst case for 5i, so that other controllers will proceed quickly.

      powerpc: Fix 64bit memcpy() regression · e423b9ec
      Mark Nelson 提交于
      This fixes a regression introduced by commit
      25d6e2d7 ("powerpc: Update 64bit memcpy()
      using CPU_FTR_UNALIGNED_LD_STD").
      
      This commit allowed CPUs that have the CPU_FTR_UNALIGNED_LD_STD CPU
      feature bit present to do the memcpy() with unaligned load doubles. But,
      along with this came a bug where our final load double would read bytes
      beyond a page boundary and into the next (unmapped) page. This was caught
      by enabling CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC,
      
      The fix was to read only the number of bytes that we need to store rather
      than reading a full 8-byte doubleword and storing only a portion of that.
      
      In order to minimise the amount of existing code touched we use the
      original do_tail for the src_unaligned case.
      
      Below is an example of the regression, as reported by Sachin Sant:

      With 32bit PIO we can use the posted write buffers, but only for 32bit I/O

      sata_mv: fix SoC interrupt breakage · 6be96ac1
      Mark Lord 提交于
      For some reason, sata_mv doesn't clear interrupt status during init
      when it's running on an SoC host adapter.  If the bootloader has
      touched the SATA controller before starting Linux, Linux can end up
      enabling the SATA interrupt with events pending, which will cause the
      interrupt to be marked as spurious and then be disabled, which then
      breaks all further accesses to the controller.
      
      This patch makes the SoC path clear interrupt status on init like in
      the non-SoC case.

      pata_it821x: resume from hibernation fails with RAID volume · 7ba07d16
      Ondrej Zary 提交于
      Hibernation didn't work for me since I started to use IT8212 controller.
      I did some debugging (booting with no_console_suspend init=/bin/sh).
      
      Found that resume fails (2.6.28) with "serial number mismatch 'some
      garbage' != 'some other garbage'" and "revalidation failed" messages.
      That's because the controller firmware fills different serial number in
      the IDENTIFY every boot.
      
      The patch below fixes the resume simply clearing the serial number.  The
      proper fix would be probably to fill in the serial number of the RAID
      volume instead.  I assume that there must be something like that stored on
      the drives but I don't know where.
      
      Fix resume on pata_it821x RAID volume by clearing the serial number in
      IDENTIFY data, which is otherwise different on each boot.
