[PATCH] ide-scsi: kmap scatter/gather before doing PIO

From: Stuart Hayes <Stuart_Hayes@dell.com>

The system can panic with a null pointer dereference using ide-scsi if
PIO is being done on scatter gather pages that are in high memory,
because page_address() returns 0.  We are actually seeing this using a
tape drive.  This patch will kmap_atomic() the pages before performing
PIO.

Suparna Bhattacharya [Sat, 21 May 2005 23:33:36 +0000 (16:33 -0700)]
[PATCH] fix for __generic_file_aio_read() to return 0 on EOF

I came across the following problem while running ltp-aiodio testcases from
ltp-full-20050405 on linux-2.6.12-rc3-mm3.  I tried running the tests with
EXT3 as well as JFS filesystems.

One or two fsx-linux testcases were hung after some time.  These testcases
were hanging at wait_for_all_aios().

Debugging shows that there were some iocbs which were not getting completed
eventhough the last retry for those returned -EIOCBQUEUED.  Also all such
pending iocbs represented READ operation.

Further debugging revealed that all such iocbs hit EOF in the DIO layer.
To be more precise, the "pos" from which they were trying to read was
greater than the "size" of the file.  So the generic_file_direct_IO
returned 0.

This happens rarely as there is already a check in
__generic_file_aio_read(), for whether "pos" < "size" before calling direct
IO routine.

>size = i_size_read(inode);
>if (pos < size) {
>   retval = generic_file_direct_IO(READ, iocb,
>                               iov, pos, nr_segs);

But for READ, we are taking the inode->i_sem only in the DIO layer.  So it
is possible that some other process can change the size of the file before
we take the i_sem.  In such a case ( when "pos" > "size"), the
__generic_file_aio_read() would return -EIOCBQUEUED even though there were
no I/O requests submitted by the DIO layer.  This would cause the AIO layer
to expect aio_complete() for THE iocb, which doesnot happen.  And thus the
test hangs forever, waiting for an I/O completion, where there are no
requests submitted at all.

The following patch makes __generic_file_aio_read() return 0 (instead of
returning -EIOCBQUEUED), on getting 0 from generic_file_direct_IO(), so
that the AIO layer does the aio_complete().

Testing:

I have tested the patch on a SMP machine(with 2 Pentium 4 (HT)) running
linux-2.6.12-rc3-mm3.  I ran the ltp-aiodio testcases and none of the
fsx-linux tests hung.  Also the aio-stress tests ran without any problem.

Since the hotplug code is holding a spinlock at this point, we cannot take
the cpuset semaphore, cpuset_sem, as would seem to be required either to
update the tasks cpuset, or to scan up the nested cpuset chain, looking for
the nearest cpuset ancestor that still has some CPUs that are online.  So
we just punt and blast the tasks cpus_allowed with all bits allowed.

This reverts these lines of code to what they were before the cpuset patch.
 And it updates the cpuset Doc file, to match.

The one known alternative to this that seems to work came from Dinakar
Guniguntala, and required the hotplug code to take the cpuset_sem semaphore
much earlier in its processing.  So far as we know, the increased locking

[SCSI] aic7xxx: make correct use of slave_alloc/destroy and remove the per device timer

The allocation of all of our components should be done in slave alloc.
Currently it's rather fancifully refcounted in the queuecommand
callback.  This patch moves allocation and destroy to their correct
places in slave_alloc/slave_destory.  Now we can guarantee that
everywhere a device is requested, it's actually been allocated, so don't
check for this anymore.

Additionally, the per device busy timer was the only source of potential
use after free.  It's been deleted because Linux does the correct thing
with busy returns, so there's no need to implement a separate timer in
the driver.

Finally, implement code that forces all the device parameters to zero
(i.e. async and narrow) in the slave alloc, inform the spi class of the
bios recorded maximums and wait until slave configure before trying
anything more adventurous.
