2009-09-08ahci: make ahci_asus_m2a_vm_32bit_only() quirk more genericTejun Heo
It turns out ASUS M2A-VM isn't the only one with the 32bit DMA problem. Make ahci_asus_m2a_vm_32bit_only() more generic using the new dmi_get_date() and rename it to ahci_sb600_32bit_only(). Cut off date is now pointed to by dmi_system_id->driver_data in "yyyymmdd" format and it's now also allowed to be omitted.

2009-09-08dmi: extend dmi_get_year() to dmi_get_date()Tejun Heo
There are cases where full date information is required instead of just the year. Add month and day parsing to dmi_get_year() and rename it to dmi_get_date(). As the original function only required '/' followed by any number of parseable characters at the end of the string, keep that behavior to avoid upsetting existing users. The new function takes dates of format [mm[/dd]]/yy[yy]. Year, month and date are checked to be in the ranges of [1-9999], [1-12] and [1-31] respectively and any invalid or out-of-range component is returned as zero. The dummy implementation is updated accordingly but the return value is updated to indicate field not found which is consistent with how other dummy functions behave.

2009-09-08dmi: fix date handling in dmi_get_year()Tejun Heo
Year parsing in dmi_get_year() had the following two bugs. * "00" is treated as invalid instead of 2000 because zero return from simple_strtoul() is treated as error. * "0N" where N >= 8 is treated as invalid of 200N because the leading 0 is considered to specify octal. Fix the above two bugs by using endptr to detect invalid number and forcing decimal. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>
2009-09-08libata: unbreak TPM filtering by reorganizing ata_scsi_pass_thru()Tejun Heo
ata_scsi_pass_thru() was checking for input sanity and disallowed commands while initializaing qc from scmd. TPM filtering was added right after protocol check at which point tf wasn't initialized properly. This means that TPM filtering has never really worked. This patch fixes the bug by reorganizing ata_scsi_pass_thru() such that qc is fully initialized before checking for invalid conditions which is way less error prone. Discovered while Thilo-Alexander Ginkel was trying debug patches for bko#13416.

2009-09-08sata_sis: convert to slave_linkTejun Heo
During introduction of slave_link, sata_sis slipped through the crack and left with ad-hoc merged SCR access. As SCR status was shared for both the master and slave devices, when only one of the device is online, libata EH would think both are online but would only get valid device signature for the actually present one, which in turn trigger the probing safety net mechanism and make EH retry causing large delay during boot. This patch converts sata_sis to slave_link mechanism. This bug was reported by TAXI in bko#14075. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14075 Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Reported-by: TAXI <taxi@a-city.de> Cc: Uwe Koziolek <uwe.koziolek@gmx.net> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>
2009-09-08i915: disable interrupts before tearing down GEM stateLinus Torvalds
Reinette Chatre reports a frozen system (with blinking keyboard LEDs) when switching from graphics mode to the text console, or when suspending (which does the same thing). With netconsole, the oops turned out to be BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000084 IP: [<ffffffffa03ecaab>] i915_driver_irq_handler+0x26b/0xd20 [i915] and it's due to the i915_gem.c code doing drm_irq_uninstall() after having done i915_gem_idle(). And the i915_gem_idle() path will do i915_gem_idle() -> i915_gem_cleanup_ringbuffer() -> i915_gem_cleanup_hws() -> dev_priv->hw_status_page = NULL; but if an i915 interrupt comes in after this stage, it may want to access that hw_status_page, and gets the above NULL pointer dereference. And since the NULL pointer dereference happens from within an interrupt, and with the screen still in graphics mode, the common end result is simply a silently hung machine. Fix it by simply uninstalling the irq handler before idling rather than after.

2009-09-08GFS2: Be extra careful about deallocating inodesSteven Whitehouse
There is a potential race in the inode deallocation code if two nodes try to deallocate the same inode at the same time. Most of the issue is solved by the iopen locking. There is still a small window which is not covered by the iopen lock. This patches fixes that and also makes the deallocation code more robust in the face of any errors in the rgrp bitmaps, or erroneous iopen callbacks from other nodes. This does introduce one extra disk read, but that is generally not an issue since its the same block that must be written to later in the deallocation process. The total disk accesses therefore stay the same, Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
