2008-02-19x86: fix WARN_ON() message: teach page_is_ram() about the special 4Kb bios ↵Arjan van de Ven
data page This patch teaches page_is_ram() about the fact that the first 4Kb of memory are special on x86, even though the E820 table normally doesn't exclude it. This fixes the WARN_ON() reported by Laurent Riffard who was also very helpful in diagnosing the issue. [ mingo@elte.hu: we are working on doing this properly in the e820 space, but for 2.6.25 this is the better fix. ] Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

Current code in qdio_activate waits for at least 5 seconds until it returns. It may return earlier if an error occurs, but not if everything is ok. This large timeout value became visible with commit dfa77f611ff295598e218aa0eb6efa73a5cf26d0 "qdio: set QDIO_ACTIVATE_TIMEOUT to 5s", which intended to fix the timeout value which was zero. In turn setting an FCP adapter online took 5 seconds. In practice waiting for 5ms before continuing is sufficient as pointed out by Utz Bacher and Cornelia Huck.

After setting the status of the cqr and releasing the lock for the block cqr queue, we call the cqr callback function, which will usually just trigger the dasd_block_tasklet. But when the tasklet is already running the cqr might be processed before we invoke the callback function. In rare cases the callback pointer may already be invalid by the time we want to call it, which will result in a panic. Solution: Call the callback function first and then release the lock.

2008-02-19libata: implement drain buffersJames Bottomley
This just updates the libata slave configure routine to take advantage of the block layer drain buffers. It also adjusts the size lengths in the atapi code to add the drain buffer to the DMA length so the driver knows it can rely on it. I suspect I should also be checking for AHCI as well as ATA_DEV_ATAPI, but I couldn't see how to do that easily. tj: * atapi_drain_needed() added such that draining is applied to only misc ATAPI commands. * q->bounce_gfp used when allocating drain buffer. * Now duplicate ATAPI PIO drain logic dropped. * ata_dev_printk() used instead of sdev_printk().

2008-02-19libata: eliminate the home grown dma padding in favour ofJames Bottomley
that provided by the block layer ATA requires that all DMA transfers begin and end on word boundaries. Because of this, a large amount of machinery grew up in ide to adjust scatterlists on this basis. However, as of 2.5, the block layer has a dma_alignment variable which ensures both the beginning and length of a DMA transfer are aligned on the dma_alignment boundary. Although the block layer does adjust the beginning of the transfer to ensure this happens, it doesn't actually adjust the length, it merely makes sure that space is allocated for transfers beyond the declared length. The upshot of this is that scatterlists may be padded to any size between the actual length and the length adjusted to the dma_alignment safely knowing that memory is allocated in this region. Right at the moment, SCSI takes the default dma_aligment which is on a 512 byte boundary. Note that this aligment only applies to transfers coming in from user space. However, since all kernel allocations are automatically aligned on a minimum of 32 byte boundaries, it is safe to adjust them in this manner as well. tj: * Adjusting sg after padding is done in block layer. Make libata set queue alignment correctly for ATAPI devices and drop broken sg mangling from ata_sg_setup(). * Use request->raw_data_len for ATAPI transfer chunk size. * Killed qc->raw_nbytes. * Separated out killing qc->n_iter.

2008-02-19block: add request->raw_data_lenTejun Heo
With padding and draining moved into it, block layer now may extend requests as directed by queue parameters, so now a request has two sizes - the original request size and the extended size which matches the size of area pointed to by bios and later by sgs. The latter size is what lower layers are primarily interested in when allocating, filling up DMA tables and setting up the controller. Both padding and draining extend the data area to accomodate controller characteristics. As any controller which speaks SCSI can handle underflows, feeding larger data area is safe. So, this patch makes the primary data length field, request->data_len, indicate the size of full data area and add a separate length field, request->raw_data_len, for the unmodified request size. The latter is used to report to higher layer (userland) and where the original request size should be fed to the controller or device.

2008-02-19block: update bio according to DMA alignment paddingTejun Heo
DMA start address and transfer size alignment for PC requests are achieved using bio_copy_user() instead of bio_map_user(). This works because bio_copy_user() always uses full pages and block DMA alignment isn't allowed to go over PAGE_SIZE. However, the implementation didn't update the last bio of the request to make this padding visible to lower layers. This patch makes blk_rq_map_user() extend the last bio such that it includes the padding area and the size of area pointed to by the request is properly aligned.
