ide: ugly messages trying to open CD drive with no media present
I get the following error messages when trying to open a CD device
(specifically, the Teac CD-ROM CD-224E) that has no media present:
hda: packet command error: status=3D0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
hda: packet command error: error=3D0x54 { AbortedCommand LastFailedSense=0x05 }
ide: failed opcode was: unknown
This happens when a "start stop unit" command (0x1b 0 0 0 3 0 0 0 0 0)
is sent to the drive to try to close the CD-ROM tray, but this drive
doesn't have that capability (it's a slim portable-type CD-ROM), so it
reports sense key 5 (illegal request) with asc/ascq 24/0. This is
exactly how SFF8090i says it should respond.
But ide-cd.c (in cdrom_decode_status() ) just sees sense key 5 and spews
out an error. It then goes on to request sense data, and
cdrom_log_sense() understands this error and doesn't log it.
The patch, for kernel 2.6.20.4, suppresses this error message.

ide: correctly prevent IDE timer expiry function to run if request was already handled
It is possible for the timer expiry function to run even though the
request has already been handled: ide_timer_expiry() only checks that
the handler is not NULL, but it is possible that we have handled a
request (thus clearing the handler) and then started a new request
(thus starting the timer again, and setting a handler).
A simple way to exhibit this is to set the DMA timeout to 1 jiffy and
run dd: The kernel will panic after a few minutes because
ide_timer_expiry() tries to add a timer when it's already active.
To fix this, we simply add a request generation count that gets
incremented at every interrupt, and check in ide_timer_expiry() that
we have not already handled a new interrupt before running the expiry
function.

The destination MAC address must be set to those of the victim.
The severity is mitigated by two requirements:
* The target host must have the appletalk kernel module loaded. I
suspect this isn't so frequent.
* AppleTalk frames are non-IP, thus I guess they can only travel on
local networks. I am no network expert though, maybe it is possible
to somehow encapsulate AppleTalk packets over IP.
The bug has been reported back in June 2004:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2979
But it wasn't investigated, and was closed in July 2006 as both
reporters had vanished meanwhile.
This code was new in kernel 2.6.0-test5:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/tglx/history.git;a=commitdiff;h=
7ab442d7e0a76402c12553ee256f756097cae2d2
And not modified since then, so we can assume that vanilla kernels
2.6.0-test5 and later, and distribution kernels based thereon, are
affected.
Note that I still do not know for sure what triggered the bug in the
real-world cases. The frame could have been corrupted by the kernel if
we have a bug hiding somewhere. But more likely, we are receiving the
faulty frame from the network.

[PATCH] fix jiffies clocksource inittime
In debugging a problem w/ the -rt tree, I noticed that on systems that mark
the tsc as unstable before it is registered, the TSC would still be
selected and used for a short period of time. Digging in it looks to be a
result of the mix of the clocksource list changes and my clocksource
initialization changes.
With the -rt tree, using a bad TSC, even for a short period of time can
results in a hang at boot. I was not able to reproduce this hang w/
mainline, but I'm not completely certain that someone won't trip on it.
This patch resolves the issue by initializing the jiffies clocksource
earlier so a bad TSC won't get selected just because nothing else is yet
registered.

[PATCH] net: Ignore sysfs network device rename bugs.
The generic networking code ensures that no two networking devices
have the same name, so there is no time except when sysfs has
implementation bugs that device_rename when called from
dev_change_name will fail.
The current error handling for errors from device_rename in
dev_change_name is wrong and results in an unusable and unrecoverable
network device if device_rename is happens to return an error.
This patch removes the buggy error handling. Which confines the mess
when device_rename hits a problem to sysfs, instead of propagating it
the rest of the network stack. Making linux a little more robust.
Without this patch you can observe what happens when sysfs has a bug
when CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED is not set and you attempt to rename
a real network device to a name like (broken_parity_status, device,
modalias, power, resource2, subsystem_vendor, class, driver, irq,
msi_bus, resource, subsystem, uevent, config, enable, local_cpus,
numa_node, resource0, subsystem_device, vendor)
Greg has a patch that fixes the sysfs bugs but he doesn't trust it

be safe and it keeps the system from going completely wacky.

[S390] page_mkclean data corruption.
The git commit
c2fda5fed81eea077363b285b66eafce20dfd45a which

git commit

the "nasty and subtle race in shared mmap'ed page writeback"
problem in clear_page_dirty_for_io cause data corruption on s390.
The effect of the two changes is that for every call to
clear_page_dirty_for_io a page_test_and_clear_dirty is done. If
the per page dirty bit is set set_page_dirty is called. Strangly
clear_page_dirty_for_io is called for not-uptodate pages, e.g.
over this call-chain:
[<
000000000007c0f2>] clear_page_dirty_for_io+0x12a/0x130
[<
000000000007c494>] generic_writepages+0x258/0x3e0

[<
000000000007cca2>] pdflush+0x162/0x23c
The bad news now is that page_test_and_clear_dirty might claim
that a not-uptodate page is dirty since SetPageUptodate which
resets the per page dirty bit has not yet been called. The page
writeback that follows clobbers the data on disk.
The simplest solution to this problem is to move the call to
page_test_and_clear_dirty under the "if (page_mapped(page))".
If a file backed page is mapped it is uptodate.

[PATCH] msi: synchronously mask and unmask msi-x irqs.
This is a simplified and actually more comprehensive form of a bug
fix from Mitch Williams <mitch.a.williams@intel.com>.
When we mask or unmask a msi-x irqs the writes may be posted because
we are writing to memory mapped region. This means the mask and
unmask don't happen immediately but at some unspecified time in the
future. Which is out of sync with how the mask/unmask logic work
for ioapic irqs.
The practical result is that we get very subtle and hard to track down
irq migration bugs.
This patch performs a read flush after writes to the MSI-X table for mask
and unmask operations. Since the SMP affinity is set while the interrupt
is masked, and since it's unmasked immediately after, no additional flushes
are required in the various affinity setting routines.
The testing by Mitch Williams on his especially problematic system should
still be valid as I have only simplified the code, not changed the
functionality.
We currently have 7 drivers: cciss, mthca, cxgb3, forceth, s2io,
pcie/portdrv_core, and qla2xxx in 2.6.21 that are affected by this
problem when the hardware they driver is plugged into the right slot.
Given the difficulty of reproducing this bug and tracing it down to
anything that even remotely resembles a cause, even if people are
being affected we aren't likely to see many meaningful bug reports, and
the people who see this bug aren't likely to be able to reproduce this
bug in a timely fashion. So it is best to get this problem fixed
as soon as we can so people don't have problems.
Then if people do have a kernel message stating "No irq for vector" we
will know it is yet another novel cause that needs a complete new
investigation.

[SCSI]: Fix scsi_send_eh_cmnd scatterlist handling
This fixes a regression caused by commit:
2dc611de5a3fd955cd0298c50691d4c05046db97
The sense buffer code in scsi_send_eh_cmnd was changed to use
alloc_page() and a scatter list, but the sense data copy was not
updated to match so what we actually get in the sense buffer is total
grabage starting with the kernel address of the struct page we got.
Basically the stack frame of scsi_send_eh_cmd() is what ends up
in the sense buffer.
Depending upon how pointers look on a given platform, you can
end up getting sr_ioctl.c errors when you mount a cdrom. If
the CDROM gives a check condition for GPCMD_GET_CONFIGURATION issued
by drivers/cdrom/cdrom.c:cdrom_mmc_profile(), sr_ioctl will
spit out this error message in sr_do_ioctl() with the way pointers
are on sparc64:
default:
printk(KERN_ERR "%s: CDROM (ioctl) error, command: ", cd->cdi.name);
__scsi_print_command(cgc->cmd);
scsi_print_sense_hdr("sr", &sshdr);
err = -EIO;
This is the error Tom Callaway reported in:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-sparc&m=
117407453208101&w=2
Anyways, fix this by using page_address(sgl.page) which is OK
because we know this is low-mem due to GFP_ATOMIC.

Dave, we use "int" for returning value,
so we should fix this anyway, IMHO;
we should not allow len > INT_MAX.

[PATCH] i386: fix file_read_actor() and pipe_read() for original i386 systems
The __copy_to_user_inatomic() calls in file_read_actor() and pipe_read()
are broken on original i386 machines, where WP-works-ok == false, as
__copy_to_user_inatomic() on such systems calls functions which might
sleep and/or contain cond_resched() calls inside of a kmap_atomic()
region.
The original check for WP-works-ok was in access_ok(), but got moved
during the 2.5 series to fix a race vs. swap.
Return the number of bytes to copy in the case where we are in an atomic
region, so the non atomic code pathes in file_read_actor() and
pipe_read() are taken.
This could be optimized to avoid the kmap_atomicby moving the check for
WP-works-ok into fault_in_pages_writeable(), but this is more intrusive
and can be done later.

The problem occurs since the microcode driver uses request_firmware() in

Dmitry points out
"When we block_prepare_write() failed while ext3_prepare_write() we jump to
"failure" label and call ext3_prepare_failure() witch search last mapped bh
and invoke commit_write untill it. This is wrong!! because some bh from
begining to the last mapped bh may be not uptodate. As a result we commit to
disk not uptodate page content witch contains garbage from previous usage."
and
"Unexpected file size increasing."
Call trace the same as it was in first issue but result is different.
For example we have file with i_size is zero. we want write two blocks ,
but fs has only one free block.
->ext3_prepare_write(...from == 0, to == 2048)
retry:
->block_prepare_write() == -ENOSPC# we failed but allocated one block here.
->ext3_prepare_failure()
->commit_write( from == 0, to == 1024) # after this i_size becomes 1024 :)
if (ret == -ENOSPC && ext3_should_retry_alloc(inode->i_sb, &retries))
goto retry;
Finally when all retries will be spended ext3_prepare_failure return
-ENOSPC, but i_size was increased and later block trimm procedures can't
help here.
We don't appear to have the horsepower to fix these issues, so let's put
things back the way they were for now.
