Check that b2b_mw_idx is in range of the number of memory windows when
initializing the device. The workaround is considered to be in effect
only if the device b2b_idx is exactly UINT_MAX, instead of any index
past the last memory window.
Only print B2B MW workaround information in debugfs if the workaround is
in effect.

There was a copy and paste error in the documentation for
ntb_link_is_up. The long description was mistakenly copied from
ntb_link_set_trans.

Allocate two DMA channels, one for TX operation and one for RX
operation, instead of having one DMA channel for everything. This
provides slightly better performance, and also will make error handling

The dma_sync_wait can hurt the performance of workloads mixed with both
large and small frames. Large frames will be copied using the dma
engine. Small frames will be copied by the cpu. The dma_sync_wait
prevents the cpu and dma engine copying in parallel.
In the period where the cpu is copying, the dma engine is stopped. The
dma engine is not doing any useful work to copy large frames during that
time, and the additional time to restart the dma engine for the next
large frame. This will decrease the throughput for the portion of a
workload with large frames.
In the period where the dma engine is copying, the cpu is held up
waiting for dma to complete. The small frames processing will be
delayed until the dma is complete. The RX frames are completed
in-order, and the processing of small frames takes very little time, so
dma_sync_wait may have an insignificant impact on the respose time of
frames. The more significant impact is to the system, because the delay
in dma_sync_wait is implemented as busy non-blocking wait. This can
prevent the delayed core from doing any useful work, even if it could be
processing work for other drivers, unrelated to transport RX processing.
After applying the earlier patch to fix out-of-order RX acknoledgement,
the dma_sync_wait is no longer necessary. Remove it, so that cpu memcpy
will proceed immediately for small frames, in parallel with ongoing dma
for large frames. Do not hold up the cpu from doing work while dma is
in progress. The prior fix will continue to ensure in-order completion
of the RX frames to the upper layer, and in-order delivery of the RX
acknoledgement.

Right now if we push the NTB really hard, we start dropping packets due
to not able to process the packets fast enough. We need to st:qop the
upper layer from flooding us when that happens.
A timer is necessary in order to restart the queue once the resource has
been processed on the receive side. Due to the way NTB is setup, the
resources on the tx side are tied to the processing of the rx side and
there's no async way to know when the rx side has released those
resources.

The NFSv4 delegation spec allows the server to tell a client to limit how
much data it cache after the file is closed. In return, the server
guarantees enough free space to avoid ENOSPC situations, etc.
Prior to this patch, we assumed we could always cache aggressively after
close. Unfortunately, this causes problems with servers that set the
limit to 0 and therefore do not offer any ENOSPC guarantees.

While working on the 32-bit ARM port of UEFI, I noticed a strange
corruption in the kernel log. The following snprintf() statement
(in drivers/firmware/efi/efi.c:efi_md_typeattr_format())
snprintf(pos, size, "|%3s|%2s|%2s|%2s|%3s|%2s|%2s|%2s|%2s]",
was producing the following output in the log:
| | | | | |WB|WT|WC|UC]
| | | | | |WB|WT|WC|UC]
| | | | | |WB|WT|WC|UC]
|RUN| | | | |WB|WT|WC|UC]*

|RUN| | | | |WB|WT|WC|UC]*
| | | | | |WB|WT|WC|UC]
|RUN| | | | | | | |UC]
|RUN| | | | | | | |UC]
As it turns out, this is caused by incorrect code being emitted for
the string() function in lib/vsprintf.c. The following code
if (!(spec.flags & LEFT)) {
while (len < spec.field_width--) {
if (buf < end)
*buf = ' ';
++buf;
}
}
for (i = 0; i < len; ++i) {
if (buf < end)
*buf = *s;
++buf; ++s;
}
while (len < spec.field_width--) {
if (buf < end)
*buf = ' ';
++buf;
}
when called with len == 0, triggers an issue in the GCC SRA optimization
pass (Scalar Replacement of Aggregates), which handles promotion of signed
struct members incorrectly. This is a known but as yet unresolved issue.
(https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=65932). In this particular
case, it is causing the second while loop to be executed erroneously a
single time, causing the additional space characters to be printed.
So disable the optimization by passing -fno-ipa-sra.

New PCMs will now be added to the end of the chip's PCM list instead of to the
front. This changes the way streams are combined so that the first capture
stream will now be merged with the first playback stream instead of the last.
This fixes a problem with ASUS U7. Cards with one playback stream and cards
without capture streams should be unaffected by this change.
Exception added for M-Audio Audiophile USB (tm) since it seems to have a fix to
swap capture stream numbering in alsa-lib conf/cards/USB-audio.conf

b9d5c6b7ef57 ("[SCSI] cleanup setting task state in
scsi_error_handler()") has introduced a race between scsi_error_handler
and scsi_host_dev_release resulting in the hang when the device goes
away because scsi_error_handler might miss a wake up:
CPU0 CPU1
scsi_error_handler scsi_host_dev_release
kthread_stop()
kthread_should_stop()
test_bit(KTHREAD_SHOULD_STOP)
set_bit(KTHREAD_SHOULD_STOP)
wake_up_process()
wait_for_completion()
set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE)
schedule()
The most straightforward solution seems to be to invert the ordering of
the set_current_state and kthread_should_stop.
The issue has been noticed during reboot test on a 3.0 based kernel but
the current code seems to be affected in the same way.

In little endian cases, the macro htons unfolds to __swab16 which
provides special case for constants. In big endian cases,
__constant_htons and htons expand directly to the same expression.
So, replace __constant_htons with htons with the goal of getting
rid of the definition of __constant_htons completely.
The semantic patch that performs this transformation is as follows:

- __constant_htons(x)

mpt2sas: setpci reset on nytro warpdrive card along with sysfs access and
cli ioctl access resulted in kernel oops
1. pci_access_mutex lock added to provide synchronization between IOCTL,
sysfs, PCI resource handling path
2. gioc_lock spinlock to protect list operations over multiple
controllers
>From c53a1cff4c07528b8b9ec7f6716e94950283e8f9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Nagarajkumar Narayanan <nagarajkumar.narayanan@seagate.com>
Date: Tue, 18 Aug 2015 11:58:13 +0530
Subject: [PATCH] mpt2sas setpci reset oops fix
In mpt2sas driver due to lack of synchronization between ioctl,
BRM status access through sysfs, pci resource removal kernel oops
happen as ioctl path and BRM status sysfs access path still tries
to access the removed resources
Two locks added to provide syncrhonization
1. pci_access_mutex: Mutex to synchronize ioctl,sysfs show path and
pci resource handling. PCI resource freeing will lead to free
vital hardware/memory resource, which might be in use by cli/sysfs
path functions resulting in Null pointer reference followed by kernel
crash. To avoid the above race condition we use mutex syncrhonization
which ensures the syncrhonization between cli/sysfs_show path
Note: pci_access_mutex is used only if nytro warpdrive cards
(ioc->is_warpdrive based on device id) are used
as we could not test this case with other SAS2 HBA cards
We can remove this check if this behaviour confirmed from other
cards.
2. spinlock on list operations over IOCs
Case: when multiple warpdrive cards(IOCs) are in use
Each IOC will added to the ioc list stucture on initialization.
Watchdog threads run at regular intervals to check IOC for any
fault conditions which will trigger the dead_ioc thread to
deallocate pci resource, resulting deleting the IOC netry from list,
this deletion need to protected by spinlock to enusre that
ioc removal is syncrhonized, if not synchronized it might lead to
list_del corruption as the ioc list is traversed in cli path

Idle (nohz) vCPU %c0 0.15% 0.3% 0.2%
Idle (250HZ) vCPU %c0 1.1% 4.6%~14% 1.2%
TCP_RR latency 34us 27us 26.7us
"Idle (X) vCPU %c0" is the percent of time the physical cpu spent in
c0 over 60 seconds (each vCPU is pinned to a pCPU). (nohz) means the
guest was tickless. (250HZ) means the guest was ticking at 250HZ.
The big win is with ticking operating systems. Running the linux guest
with nohz=off (and HZ=250), we save 3.4%~12.8% CPUs/second and get close
to no-polling overhead levels by using the dynamic-poll. The savings
should be even higher for higher frequency ticks.

Change halt_poll_ns into per-VCPU variable, seeded from module parameter,
to allow greater flexibility.
