2013-11-12ib_isert: Avoid duplicate iscsit_increment_maxcmdsn callNicholas Bellinger
This patch avoids a duplicate iscsit_increment_maxcmdsn() call for ISER_IB_RDMA_WRITE within isert_map_rdma() + isert_reg_rdma_frwr(), which will already be occuring once during isert_put_datain() -> iscsit_build_rsp_pdu() operation. It also removes the local conn->stat_sn assignment + increment, and changes the third parameter to iscsit_build_rsp_pdu() to signal this should be done by iscsi_target_mode code.

2013-11-12iscsi-target: Fix mutex_trylock usage in iscsit_increment_maxcmdsnNicholas Bellinger
This patch fixes a >= v3.10 regression bug with mutex_trylock() usage within iscsit_increment_maxcmdsn(), that was originally added to allow for a special case where ->cmdsn_mutex was already held from the iscsit_execute_cmd() exception path for ib_isert. When !mutex_trylock() was occuring under contention during normal RX/TX process context codepaths, the bug was manifesting itself as the following protocol error: Received CmdSN: 0x000fcbb7 is greater than MaxCmdSN: 0x000fcbb6, protocol error. Received CmdSN: 0x000fcbb8 is greater than MaxCmdSN: 0x000fcbb6, protocol error. This patch simply avoids the direct ib_isert callback in lio_queue_status() for the special iscsi_execute_cmd() exception cases, that allows the problematic mutex_trylock() usage in iscsit_increment_maxcmdsn() to go away.

2013-11-12ACPI: delete CONFIG_ACPI_BLACKLIST_YEARLen Brown
About 10 years ago, this option was created to help distros enable ACPI and not get distracted by ACPI BIOS issues in machines which were deemed old at that time, eg 1999 and earlier. After a couple of years, the high volume distros stopped bothering to set this option, and instead simply ran in ACPI mode on all systems with an ACPI BIOS -- regardless of BIOS DMI year. Recently there have been some ACPI-enabled systems with no DMI, mandating that CONFIG_ACPI_BLACKLIST_YEAR=0. So it seems vanishingly unlikely that this option is helping anybody run a 2013 kernel on a 1998 system, and now more systems mandate this option be disabled, so we simplify by deleting it entirely.

2013-11-12target: Pass through I/O topology for block backstoresAndy Grover
In addition to block size (already implemented), passing through alignment offset, logical-to-phys block exponent, I/O granularity and optimal I/O length will allow initiators to properly handle layout on LUNs with 4K block sizes. Tested with various weird values via scsi_debug module. One thing to look at with this patch is the new block limits values -- instead of granularity 1 optimal 8192, Lio will now be returning whatever the block device says, which may affect performance.

This patch changes isert_reg_rdma_frwr() to not use FRMR for single dma entry requests from small I/Os, in order to avoid the associated memory registration overhead.

The imx23 board will check the fingerprint, so it will call the mx23_check_transcription_stamp.

2013-11-12dma: cppi41: redo descriptor collection in abort caseSebastian Andrzej Siewior
Most of the logic here is try and error since what actually happens does not match the trm or I miss read it. My first assumption was that the queue on which the tear-down descriptor completes (their own complete queue vs "active descriptor" complete queue) depends on the transfer direction. This seems not to be true because I manage to trigger | WARN_ON(c->desc_phys != desc_phys); and the other few were fine means the tear-down descriptor was valid but on different queue.

I've got ACKs for the things that affect other subsystems (or it's my own subsystem, like pinctrl). Most of that pertain to an attempt from my side to consolidate and get rid of custom GPIO implementations in the ARM tree. I will continue doing this. The main change this time is the new GPIO descriptor API, background for this can be found in Corbet's summary from this january in LWN: http://lwn.net/Articles/533632/ Summary: - Merged the GPIO descriptor API from Alexandre Courbot. This is a first step toward trying to get rid of the global GPIO numberspace for the future. - Add an API so that driver can flag that a certain GPIO line is being used by a irqchip backend for generating IRQs, so that we can enforce checks, like not allowing users to switch that line to an output at runtime, since this makes no sense. Implemented corresponding calls in a few select drivers. - ACPI GPIO cleanups, refactorings and switch to using the descriptor-based interface. - Support for the TPS80036 Palmas GPIO variant. - A new driver for the Broadcom Kona GPIO SoC IP block. - Device tree support for the PCF857x driver. - A set of ARM GPIO refactorings with the goal of getting rid of a bunch of custom GPIO implementations from the arch/arm/* tree: * Move the IOP GPIO driver to the GPIO subsystem and fix all users to use the gpiolib API for accessing GPIOs.

2013-11-12dma: edma: Add support for Cyclic DMAJoel Fernandes
Using the PaRAM configuration function that we split for reuse by the different DMA types, we implement Cyclic DMA support. For the cyclic case, we pass different configuration parameters to this function, and handle all the Cyclic-specific functionality separately. Callbacks to the DMA users are handled using vchan_cyclic_callback in the virt-dma layer. Linking is handled the same way as the slave SG case except for the last slot where we link it back to the first one in a cyclic fashion. For continuity, we check for cases where no.of periods is great than the MAX number of slots the driver can allocate for a particular descriptor and error out on such cases.

Currently, the PLL is turned off for AR9485 when switching to a low power state, but AR9485 has an issue where the card will become unresponsive if left idle for a long time without any traffic. To fix this, force the PLL to always be on using a different initval array, ar9485_1_1_pll_on_cdr_on_clkreq_disable_L1. This is done for most of the AR9485 based cards like HB125, WB225 etc. but certain models require the feature to be turned off. Identify such cards and use default values for them.

2013-11-11mtd: gpmi: fix kernel BUG due to racing DMA operationsHuang Shijie
[1] The gpmi uses the nand_command_lp to issue the commands to NAND chips. The gpmi issues a DMA operation with gpmi_cmd_ctrl when it handles a NAND_CMD_NONE control command. So when we read a page(NAND_CMD_READ0) from the NAND, we may send two DMA operations back-to-back. If we do not serialize the two DMA operations, we will meet a bug when 1.1) we enable CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG, CONFIG_DMADEVICES_DEBUG, and CONFIG_DEBUG_SG. 1.2) Use the following commands in an UART console and a SSH console: cmd 1: while true;do dd if=/dev/mtd0 of=/dev/null;done cmd 1: while true;do dd if=/dev/mmcblk0 of=/dev/null;done The kernel log shows below: ----------------------------------------------------------------- kernel BUG at lib/scatterlist.c:28!

The root cause of the bug: Assume process P issues DMA X, and sleep on the completion @this->dma_done. X's tasklet callback is dma_irq_callback. It firstly wake up the process sleeping on the completion @this->dma_done, and then trid to unmap the scatterlist S. The waked process P will issue Y in another ARM core. Y initializes S->sg_magic to zero with sg_init_one(), while dma_irq_callback is unmapping S at the same time. See the diagram: ARM core 0 | ARM core 1 ------------------------------------------------------------- (P issues DMA X, then sleep) --> | | (X's tasklet wakes P) --> | | | <-- (P begin to issue DMA Y) | (X's tasklet unmap the | scatterlist S with dma_unmap_sg) --> | <-- (Y calls sg_init_one() to init | scatterlist S) | [2] This patch serialize both the X and Y in the following way: Unmap the DMA scatterlist S firstly, and wake up the process at the end of the DMA callback, in such a way, Y will be executed after X. After this patch: ARM core 0 | ARM core 1 ------------------------------------------------------------- (P issues DMA X, then sleep) --> | | (X's tasklet unmap the | scatterlist S with dma_unmap_sg) --> | | (X's tasklet wakes P) --> | | | <-- (P begin to issue DMA Y) | | <-- (Y calls sg_init_one() to init | scatterlist S) | Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 3.2 Signed-off-by: Huang Shijie <b32955@freescale.com> Signed-off-by: Brian Norris <computersforpeace@gmail.com>

All of the rtlwifi drivers have an error in the routine that tests if the data is "special". If it is, the subsequant transmission will be at the lowest rate to enhance reliability. The 16-bit quantity is big-endian, but was being extracted in native CPU mode. One of the effects of this bug is to inhibit association under some conditions as the TX rate is too high. Based on suggestions by Joe Perches, the entire routine is rewritten. One of the local headers contained duplicates of some of the ETH_P_XXX definitions. These are deleted.
