2014-08-02CIFS: Fix async reading on reconnectsPavel Shilovsky
If we get into read_into_pages() from cifs_readv_receive() and then loose a network, we issue cifs_reconnect that moves all mids to a private list and issue their callbacks. The callback of the async read request sets a mid to retry, frees it and wakes up a process that waits on the rdata completion. After the connection is established we return from read_into_pages() with a short read, use the mid that was freed before and try to read the remaining data from the a newly created socket. Both actions are not what we want to do. In reconnect cases (-EAGAIN) we should not mask off the error with a short read but should return the error code instead.

2014-08-01xhci: Blacklist using streams on the Etron EJ168 controllerHans de Goede
Streams on the EJ168 do not work as they should. I've spend 2 days trying to get them to work, but without success. The first problem is that when ever you ring the stream-ring doorbell, the controller starts executing trbs at the beginning of the first ring segment, event if it ended somewhere else previously. This can be worked around by allowing enqueing only one td (not a problem with how streams are typically used) and then resetting our copies of the enqueueing en dequeueing pointers on a td completion to match what the controller seems to be doing. This way things seem to start working with uas and instead of being able to complete only the very first scsi command, the scsi core can probe the disk. But then things break later on when td-s get enqueued with more then one trb. The controller does seem to increase its dequeue pointer while executing a stream-ring (data transfer events I inserted for debugging do trigger). However execution seems to stop at the final normal trb of a multi trb td, even if there is a data transfer event inserted after the final trb. The first problem alone is a serious deviation from the spec, and esp. dealing with cancellation would have been very tricky if not outright impossible, but the second problem simply is a deal breaker altogether, so this patch simply disables streams. Note this will cause the usb-storage + uas driver pair to automatically switch to using usb-storage instead of uas on these devices, essentially reverting to the 3.14 and earlier behavior when uas was marked CONFIG_BROKEN. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1121288 https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=80101 Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 3.15 Signed-off-by: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

Rather then building an ever growing list with usb-id based quirks for devices using this chipset, simply reduce the qdepth to 32 when connected over usb-2. 32 should be plenty to keep things close to maximum possible throughput on usb-2.

2014-08-01usb-core bInterval quirkJames P Michels III
This patch adds a usb quirk to support devices with interupt endpoints and bInterval values expressed as microframes. The quirk causes the parse endpoint function to modify the reported bInterval to a standards conforming value. There is currently code in the endpoint parser that checks for bIntervals that are outside of the valid range (1-16 for USB 2+ high speed and super speed interupt endpoints). In this case, the code assumes the bInterval is being reported in 1ms frames. As well, the correction is only applied if the original bInterval value is out of the 1-16 range. With this quirk applied to the device, the bInterval will be accurately adjusted from microframes to an exponent.

2014-08-01staging: comedi: addi_apci_1564: remove diagnostic interrupt support codeChase Southwood
As per Ian, at this point in time it is not worth implementing an async command interface for diagnostic interrupts for this board. As this is the case, this patch removes the code which supports such interrupts as it is now unused. This includes removing apci1564_do_read(), which was the insn_read operation for the digital output subdevice, since all it was doing was reading the current diagnostic interrupt type and returning it in 'data'. This doesn't follow the comedi API and this operation can be emulated by the comedi core anyway since the insn_bits operation follows the comedi API. So it is safe to simply remove this function.
