- new src.c file for 0x28b specific functions
- new XPORT header required
- sync. command interface: doorbell bits shifted (SRC_ODR_SHIFT, SRC_IDR_SHIFT)
- async. Interface: different inbound queue handling, no outbound I2O
queue available, using doorbell ("PmDoorBellResponseSent") and
response buffer on the host ("host_rrq") for status
- changed AIF (adapter initiated FIBs) interface: "DoorBellAifPending"
bit to inform about pending AIF, "AifRequest" command to read AIF,
"NoMoreAifDataAvailable" to mark the end of the AIFs

This patch removes a legacy struct se_hba->hba_dev_list -> se_release_device_for_hba()
list walk in core_delete_hba(), which is no longer required while using configfs
VFS level parent/child struct config_group dependency referencing. The reason
is because any struct se_hba->hba_dev_list-> struct se_device members are going
to have to be released via:
rmdir /sys/kernel/config/target/core/$HBA/*
before rmdir release of struct se_hba via target_core_configfs.c:
target_core_call_delhbafromtarget() -> core_delete_hba()
rmdir /sys/kernel/config/target/core/$HBA

This patch also removes the legacy se_clear_dev_ports() function, which is
left-over pre-configfs shutdown logic for when se_free_virtual_device()
was responsible for walking struct se_device->dev_sep_list and calling
core_dev_del_lun() for each individual active struct se_port->se_lun.
The reason this can be removed is because all struct se_device->dev_sep_list
-> struct se_port communication is done via configfs symlinks, which
means that an target fabric module's endpoints containg active struct
se_port(s) will have to be released via target_core_fabric_configfs.c:

[SCSI] ses: Avoid kernel panic when lun 0 is not mapped
During device discovery, scsi mid layer sends INQUIRY command to LUN
0. If the LUN 0 is not mapped to host, it creates a temporary
scsi_device with LUN id 0 and sends REPORT_LUNS command to it. After
the REPORT_LUNS succeeds, it walks through the LUN table and adds each
LUN found to sysfs. At the end of REPORT_LUNS lun table scan, it will
delete the temporary scsi_device of LUN 0.
When scsi devices are added to sysfs, it calls add_dev function of all
the registered class interfaces. If ses driver has been registered,
ses_intf_add() of ses module will be called. This function calls
scsi_device_enclosure() to check the inquiry data for EncServ
bit. Since inquiry was not allocated for temporary LUN 0 scsi_device,
it will cause NULL pointer exception.
To fix the problem, sdev->inquiry is checked for NULL before reading it.

sys_swapon: fix inode locking
A conflict between
52c50567d8ab ("mm: swap: unlock swapfile inode mutex
before closing file on bad swapfiles") and
83ef99befc32 ("sys_swapon:
remove did_down variable") caused a double unlock of the inode mutex
(once in bad_swap: before the filp_close, once at the end just before
returning).
The patch which added the extra unlock cleared did_down to avoid
unlocking twice, but the other patch removed the did_down variable.
To fix, set inode to NULL after the first unlock, since it will be used
after that point only for the final unlock.
While checking this patch, I found a path which could unlock without
locking, in case the same inode was added as a swapfile twice. To fix,
move the setting of the inode variable further down, to just before
claim_swapfile, which will lock the inode before doing anything else.

Similar to commit

avoids unnecessary volume control indices for more
Realtek auto-parsers, e g the ALC66x family, on the "Surround" and "Side"
controls.
These indices cause these volume controls to be ignored by PulseAudio and
vmaster and should be removed whenever possible.

zlib: slim down zlib_deflate() workspace when possible
Instead of always creating a huge (268K) deflate_workspace with the
maximum compression parameters (windowBits=15, memLevel=8), allow the
caller to obtain a smaller workspace by specifying smaller parameter
values.
For example, when capturing oops and panic reports to a medium with
limited capacity, such as NVRAM, compression may be the only way to
capture the whole report. In this case, a small workspace (24K works
fine) is a win, whether you allocate the workspace when you need it (i.e.,
during an oops or panic) or at boot time.
I've verified that this patch works with all accepted values of windowBits
(positive and negative), memLevel, and compression level.

adfs: add hexadecimal filetype suffix option
ADFS (FileCore) storage complies with the RISC OS filetype specification
(12 bits of file type information is stored in the file load address,
rather than using a file extension). The existing driver largely ignores
this information and does not present it to the end user.
It is desirable that stored filetypes be made visible to the end user to
facilitate a precise copy of data and metadata from a hard disc (or image
thereof) into a RISC OS emulator (such as RPCEmu) or to a network share
which can be accessed by real Acorn systems.
This patch implements a per-mount filetype suffix option (use -o
ftsuffix=1) to present any filetype as a ,xyz hexadecimal suffix on each
file. This type suffix is compatible with that used by RISC OS systems
that access network servers using NFS client software and by RPCemu's host
filing system.

adfs: fix E+/F+ dir size > 2048 crashing kernel
Kernel crashes in fs/adfs module when accessing directories with a large
number of objects on mounted Acorn ADFS E+/F+ format discs (or images) as
the existing code writes off the end of the fixed array of struct
buffer_head pointers.
Additionally, each directory access that didn't crash would leak a buffer
as nr_buffers was not adjusted correctly for E+/F+ discs (was always left
as one less than required).
The patch fixes this by allocating a dynamically-sized set of struct
buffer_head pointers if necessary for the E+/F+ case (many directories
still do in fact fit in 2048 bytes) and sets the correct nr_buffers so
that all buffers are released.

kstrto*: converting strings to integers done (hopefully) right
1. simple_strto*() do not contain overflow checks and crufty,
libc way to indicate failure.
2. strict_strto*() also do not have overflow checks but the name and
comments pretend they do.
3. Both families have only "long long" and "long" variants,
but users want strtou8()
4. Both "simple" and "strict" prefixes are wrong:
Simple doesn't exactly say what's so simple, strict should not exist
because conversion should be strict by default.
The solution is to use "k" prefix and add convertors for more types.
Enter
kstrtoull()
kstrtoll()
kstrtoul()
kstrtol()
kstrtouint()
kstrtoint()
kstrtou64()
kstrtos64()
kstrtou32()

kstrtou8()
kstrtos8()
Include runtime testsuite (somewhat incomplete) as well.
strict_strto*() become deprecated, stubbed to kstrto*() and
eventually will be removed altogether.
Use kstrto*() in code today!
Note: on some archs _kstrtoul() and _kstrtol() are left in tree, even if
they'll be unused at runtime. This is temporarily solution,
because I don't want to hardcode list of archs where these

console: allow to retain boot console via boot option keep_bootcon
On some architectures, the boot process involves de-registering the boot
console (early boot), initialize drivers and then re-register the console.
This mechanism introduces a window in which no printk can happen on the
console and messages are buffered and then printed once the new console is
available.
If a kernel crashes during this window, all it's left on the boot console
is "console [foo] enabled, bootconsole disabled" making debug of the crash
rather 'interesting'.
By adding "keep_bootcon" option, do not unregister the boot console, that
will allow to printk everything that is happening up to the crash.
The option is clearly meant only for debugging purposes as it introduces
lots of duplicated info printed on console, but will make bug report from
users easier as it doesn't require a kernel build just to figure out where
we crash.

kernel/watchdog.c: always return NOTIFY_OK during cpu up/down events
This patch addresses a couple of problems. One was the case when the
hardlockup failed to start, it also failed to start the softlockup. There
were valid cases when the hardlockup shouldn't start and that shouldn't
block the softlockup (no lapic, bios controls perf counters).
The second problem was when the hardlockup failed to start on boxes (from
a no lapic or bios controlled perf counter case), it reported failure to
the cpu notifier chain. This blocked the notifier from continuing to
start other more critical pieces of cpu bring-up (in our case based on a
2.6.32 fork, it was the mce). As a result, during soft cpu online/offline
testing, the system would panic when a cpu was offlined because the cpu
notifier would succeed in processing a watchdog disable cpu event and
would panic in the mce case as a result of un-initialized variables from a
never executed cpu up event.
I realized the hardlockup/softlockup cases are really just debugging aids
and should never impede the progress of a cpu up/down event. Therefore I
modified the code to always return NOTIFY_OK and instead rely on printks
to inform the user of problems.

calibrate: retry with wider bounds when converge seems to fail
Systems with unmaskable interrupts such as SMIs may massively
underestimate loops_per_jiffy, and fail to converge anywhere near the real
value. A case seen on x86_64 was an initial estimate of 256<<12, which
converged to 511<<12 where the real value should have been over 630<<12.
This admitedly requires bypassing the TSC calibration (lpj_fine), and a
failure to settle in the direct calibration too, but is physically
possible. This failure does not depend on my previous calibration
optimisation, but by luck is easy to fix with the optimisation in place
with a trivial retry loop.
In the context of the optimised converging method, as we can no longer
trust the starting estimate, enlarge the search bounds exponentially so
that the number of retries is logarithmically bounded.

calibrate: home in on correct lpj value more quickly
Binary chop with a jiffy-resync on each step to find an upper bound is
slow, so just race in a tight-ish loop to find an underestimate.
If done with lots of individual steps, sometimes several hundreds of
iterations would be required, which would impose a significant overhead,
and make the initial estimate very low. By taking slowly increasing steps
there will be less overhead.
E.g. an x86_64 2.67GHz could have fitted in 613 individual small delays,
but in reality should have been able to fit in a single delay 644 times
longer, so underestimated by 31 steps. To reach the equivalent of 644
small delays with the accelerating scheme now requires about 130
iterations, so has <1/4th of the overhead, and can therefore be expected
to underestimate by only 7 steps.
As now we have a better initial estimate we can binary chop over a smaller
range. With the loop overhead in the initial estimate kept low, and the
step sizes moderate, we won't have under-estimated by much, so chose as
tight a range as we can.

calibrate: extract fall-back calculation into own helper
The motivation for this patch series is that currently our OMAP calibrates
itself using the trial-and-error binary chop fallback that some other
architectures no longer need to perform. This is a lengthy process,
taking 0.2s in an environment where boot time is of great interest.
Patch 2/4 has two optimisations. Firstly, it replaces the initial
repeated- doubling to find the relevant power of 2 with a tight loop that
just does as much as it can in a jiffy. Secondly, it doesn't binary chop
over an entire power of 2 range, it choses a much smaller range based on
how much it squeezed in, and failed to squeeze in, during the first stage.
Both are significant optimisations, and bring our calibration down from
23 jiffies to 5, and, in the process, often arrive at a more accurate lpj
value.
The 'bands' and 'sub-logarithmic' growth may look over-engineered, but
they only cost a small level of inaccuracy in the initial guess (for all
architectures) in order to avoid the very large inaccuracies that appeared
during testing (on x86_64 architectures, and presumably others with less
metronomic operation). Note that due to the existence of the TSC and
other timers, the x86_64 will not typically use this fallback routine, but
I wanted to code defensively, able to cope with all kinds of processor
behaviours and kernel command line options.
Patch 3/4 is an additional trap for the nightmare scenario where the
initial estimate is very inaccurate, possibly due to things like SMIs.
It simply retries with a larger bound.

This patch:
... so that it can be modified more clinically.
This is almost entirely cosmetic. The only change to the operation
is that the global variable is only set once after the estimation is
completed, rather than taking on all the intermediate values. However,
there are no readers of that variable, so this change is unimportant.

sys_unshare: remove the dead CLONE_THREAD/SIGHAND/VM code
Cleanup: kill the dead code which does nothing but complicates the code
and confuses the reader.
sys_unshare(CLONE_THREAD/SIGHAND/VM) is not really implemented, and I
doubt very much it will ever work. At least, nobody even tried since the
original
99d1419d96d7df9cfa56 ("unshare system call -v5: system call
handler function") was applied more than 4 years ago.
And the code is not consistent. unshare_thread() always fails
unconditionally, while unshare_sighand() and unshare_vm() pretend to work
if there is nothing to unshare.
Remove unshare_thread(), unshare_sighand(), unshare_vm() helpers and
related variables and add a simple CLONE_THREAD | CLONE_SIGHAND| CLONE_VM
check into check_unshare_flags().
Also, move the "CLONE_NEWNS needs CLONE_FS" check from
check_unshare_flags() to sys_unshare(). This looks more consistent and
matches the similar do_sysvsem check in sys_unshare().
Note: with or without this patch "atomic_read(mm->mm_users) > 1" can give
a false positive due to get_task_mm().
