When support for more than 31 scatter gather elements was added to the block
half of the driver, the SCSI half of the driver was not addressed, and the bump
from 31 to 32 scatter gather elements in the command block itself (not chained)
actually broke the SCSI half of the driver, so that any transfer requiring 32
scatter gather elements wouldn't work.  This fix also increases the max transfer
size and size of the scatter gather table to the limit supported by the controller

CFQ currently applies the same logic of detecting seeky queues and
grouping them together for rotational disks as well as SSDs.
For SSDs, the time to complete a request doesn't depend on the
request location, but only on the size.
This patch therefore changes the criterion to group queues by

cfq-iosched: rework seeky detection

Current seeky detection is based on average seek lenght.
This is suboptimal, since the average will not distinguish between:
* a process doing medium sized seeks
* a process doing some sequential requests interleaved with larger seeks
and even a medium seek can take lot of time, if the requested sector
happens to be behind the disk head in the rotation (50% probability).

Therefore, we change the seeky queue detection to work as follows:
* each request can be classified as sequential if it is very close to
  the current head position, i.e. it is likely in the disk cache (disks
  usually read more data than requested, and put it in cache for
  subsequent reads). Otherwise, the request is classified as seeky.
* an history window of the last 32 requests is kept, storing the
  classification result.
* A queue is marked as seeky if more than 1/8 of the last 32 requests
  were seeky.

This patch fixes a regression reported by Yanmin, on mmap 64k random
reads.

must be at least one free tx slot.  But with NAPI, this is not
true anymore and the BUG_ON can hits on heavy load.

In this driver NAPI was enabled on 2.6.33-rc1 so this is

i915 / PM: Fix hibernate regression caused by suspend/resume splitting

Commit 84b79f8d2882b0a84330c04839ed4d3cefd2ff77 (drm/i915: Fix crash
while aborting hibernation) attempted to fix a regression introduced
by commit cbda12d77ea590082edb6d30bd342a67ebc459e0 (drm/i915:
implement new pm ops for i915), but it went too far trying to split
the freeze/suspend and resume/thaw parts of the code.  As a result,
it introduced another regression, which only is visible on some systems.

Fix the problem by merging i915_drm_suspend() with
i915_drm_freeze() and moving some code from i915_resume()
into i915_drm_thaw(), so that intel_opregion_free() and
intel_opregion_init() are also executed in the freeze and thaw code
paths, respectively.

Input: polldev can cause crash in case when polling disabled

When polled input device is opened and closed and there are no other
users of polled device, the workqueue is created and destroyed in
every open / close operation. It is probable that at some point
dynamic allocation of internal parts of the workqueue cause changes to the
workqueue.

When a work is queued to the workqueue the work struct contains pointers
to the workqueue data. If the workqueue has been changed and the work
has never been queued to the new workqueue, work-struct contains pointers
to the non-existing workqueue. This will cause crash at the work
cancellation during device close since cancellation of a work assumes
that the workqueue exists.

To prevent that, work struct is cleaned up at device close. This keeps
work struct clean for the next use.

14 years agosfc: SFE4002/SFN4112F: Widen temperature and voltage tolerances

sfc: SFE4002/SFN4112F: Widen temperature and voltage tolerances

The temperature and voltage limits currently set on these boards are
too conservative and will cause the driver to stop the net device
erroneously in some systems.

Based on a review of the chip datasheets and advice from the designer
of these boards:

- Raise the maximum board temperatures to the specified maximum ambient
  temperatures for their PHYs plus the expected temperature bias of the
  board
- Raise the maximum controller temperature to 90 degrees
- Lower the minimum temperatures to 0 degrees
- Widen the voltage tolerances to at least +/- 10%

14 years agosfc: Fix sign of efx_mcdi_poll_reboot() error in efx_mcdi_poll()

sfc: Fix sign of efx_mcdi_poll_reboot() error in efx_mcdi_poll()

efx_mcdi_poll() uses positive error numbers, matching the MCDI
protocol.  It must negate the result of efx_mcdi_poll_reboot() which
returns the usual negative error numbers.

14 years agonet-sysfs: Use rtnl_trylock in wireless sysfs methods.

net-sysfs: Use rtnl_trylock in wireless sysfs methods.

The wireless sysfs methods like the rest of the networking sysfs
methods are removed with the rtnl_lock held and block until
the existing methods stop executing.  So use rtnl_trylock
and restart_syscall so that the code continues to work.
