Lower USB storage settling delay to something more reasonable

The five-second delay can be rather annoying, and makes the system
appear much less responsive when you connect a USB drive.

It's also not entirely clear that it is needed - the settling delay has
at least historically been an issue on some Apple iPods, for example,
and some devices have been reported to need even more than the old 5s
delay.

But before we penalize them all, let's see how bad it really is.  Some
of the reasons for long delays seem to be actual historical kernel bugs
that should probably never have been papered over with a delay in the
first place (there's a Ubuntu bug report for 2.6.20 about a NULL pointer
dereference unless 'delay_use' is 8 or more, for example).

It also looks like some distros have already shipped with delay_use=0,
so the five second default may well be totally historical.

In other words: "Let's see if anybody screams".

x86/PCI: Prevent mmconfig memory corruption

commit ff097ddd4 (x86/PCI: MMCONFIG: manage pci_mmcfg_region as a
list, not a table) introduced a nasty memory corruption when
pci_mmcfg_list is empty.

pci_mmcfg_check_end_bus_number() dereferences pci_mmcfg_list.prev even
when the list is empty. The following write hits some variable near to
pci_mmcfg_list.

Further down a similar problem exists, where cfg->list.next is
dereferenced unconditionally and a comparison with some variable near
to pci_mmcfg_list happens.

Add a check for the last element into the for_each_entry() loop and
remove all the other crappy logic which is just a leftover of the old
array based code which was replaced by the list conversion.

virtio: console: Add a new MULTIPORT feature, support for generic ports

This commit adds a new feature, MULTIPORT. If the host supports this
feature as well, the config space has the number of ports defined for
that device. New ports are spawned according to this information.

The config space also has the maximum number of ports that can be
spawned for a particular device. This is useful in initializing the
appropriate number of virtqueues in advance, as ports might be
hot-plugged in later.

Using this feature, generic ports can be created which are not tied to
hvc consoles.

We also open up a private channel between the host and the guest via
which some "control" messages are exchanged for the ports, like whether
the port being spawned is a console port, resizing the console window,
etc.

Next commits will add support for hotplugging and presenting char
devices in /dev/ for bi-directional guest-host communication.

x86/PCI: use host bridge _CRS info by default on 2008 and newer machines

The main benefit of using ACPI host bridge window information is that
we can do better resource allocation in systems with multiple host bridges,
e.g., http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14183

Sometimes we need _CRS information even if we only have one host bridge,
e.g., https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/341681

Most of these systems are relatively new, so this patch turns on
"pci=use_crs" only on machines with a BIOS date of 2008 or newer.

14 years agoPCI: augment bus resource table with a list

PCI: augment bus resource table with a list

Previously we used a table of size PCI_BUS_NUM_RESOURCES (16) for resources
forwarded to a bus by its upstream bridge.  We've increased this size
several times when the table overflowed.

But there's no good limit on the number of resources because host bridges
and subtractive decode bridges can forward any number of ranges to their
secondary buses.

This patch reduces the table to only PCI_BRIDGE_RESOURCE_NUM (4) entries,
which corresponds to the number of windows a PCI-to-PCI (3) or CardBus (4)
bridge can positively decode.  Any additional resources, e.g., PCI host
bridge windows or subtractively-decoded regions, are kept in a list.

I'd prefer a single list rather than this split table/list approach, but
that requires simultaneous changes to every architecture.  This approach
only requires immediate changes where we set up (a) host bridges with more
than four windows and (b) subtractive-decode P2P bridges, and we can
incrementally change other architectures to use the list.

PCI: add pci_bus_for_each_resource(), remove direct bus->resource[] refs

No functional change; this converts loops that iterate from 0 to
PCI_BUS_NUM_RESOURCES through pci_bus resource[] table to use the
pci_bus_for_each_resource() iterator instead.

This doesn't change the way resources are stored; it merely removes
dependencies on the fact that they're in a table.
