CONFIG_MODULES=y CONFIG_SCSI=y CONFIG_SCSI_SCAN_ASYNC=y CONFIG_SCSI_WAIT_SCAN=m 2.6.21-rc5-mm2 VFS panics unable to find my root on /dev/sda2, but boots okay if I change drivers/scsi/Kconfig to "default y" instead of "default m" for SCSI_WAIT_SCAN. Make sure there's a late_initcall to scsi_complete_async_scans when it's built in, so a monolithic SCSI_SCAN_ASYNC kernel can rely on the scans being completed before trying to mount root, even if they're slow.

get_next_timer_interrupt() returns a delta of (LONG_MAX > 1) in case there is no timer pending. On 64 bit machines this results in a multiplication overflow in tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick(). Reported by: Dave Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Make the return value a constant and limit the return value to a 32 bit value. When the max timeout value is returned, we can safely stop the tick timer device. The max jiffies delta results in a 12 days timeout for HZ=1000. In the long term the get_next_timer_interrupt() code needs to be reworked to return ktime instead of jiffies, but we have to wait until the last users of the original NO_IDLE_HZ code are converted.

commit 518b1646 ("IPoIB/cm: Fix SRQ WR leak") introduced a severe performance regression on Mellanox cards, because keeping a QP in the error state for extended periods of time moves hardware to the slow path (until the QP is destroyed). For example, MPI latency goes from ~3 usecs to ~7 usecs. Fix this by posting a send WR on one of the QPs that are being flushed, instead of using a separate drain QP that is kept in the error state. This fixes bug <https://bugs.openfabrics.org/show_bug.cgi?id=636>, reported and bisected by Scott Weitzenkamp at Cisco and debugged by Sasha Mikheev at Voltaire. Signed-off-by: Michael S.

mthca_free_err_wqe() currently treats both send and receive CQEs identically if a QP is using an SRQ. But for Tavor hardware, send CQEs with error can be chained together even if the RQ is part of SRQ, so we may miss some CQEs. Fix by following the WQE chain for all send CQEs even for non-SRQ QPs.

This patch (as912) replaces a couple of calls to flush_workqueue() with cancel_sync_work() and cancel_rearming_delayed_work(). Using a more directed approach allows us to avoid some nasty deadlocks. The prime example occurs when a first-level device (the parent is a root hub) is removed while at the same time the root hub gets a remote wakeup request. khubd would try to flush the autosuspend workqueue while holding the root-hub's lock, and the remote-wakeup workqueue routine would be waiting to lock the root hub. The patch also reorganizes the power management portion of usb_disconnect(), separating it out into its own routine. The autosuspend workqueue entry is cancelled immediately instead of waiting for the device's release routine. In addition, synchronization with the autosuspend thread is carried out even for root hubs (an oversight in the original code).

It was using an immediate _PAGE_EXEC_4U value in an 'and' instruction to perform the test. This doesn't work because the immediate field is signed 13-bit, this the mask being tested against the PTE was 0x1000 sign-extended to 32-bits instead of just plain 0x1000. Signed-off-by: David S.

The Linux kernel ignored the PROM's serial settings (115200,n,8,1 in my case). This was because mode_prop remained "ttyX-mode" (expected: "ttya-mode") due to the constness of string literals when used with "char *". Since there is no "ttyX-mode" property in the PROM, Linux always used the default 9600.

Cheetah systems can have cpuids as large as 1023, although physical systems don't have that many cpus. Only three limitations existed in the kernel preventing arbitrary NR_CPUS values: 1) dcache dirty cpu state stored in page->flags on D-cache aliasing platforms. With some build time calculations and some build-time BUG checks on page->flags layout, this one was easily solved. 2) The cheetah XCALL delivery code could only handle a cpumask with up to 32 cpus set. Some simple looping logic clears that up too. 3) thread_info->cpu was a u8, easily changed to a u16. There are a few spots in the kernel that still put NR_CPUS sized arrays on the kernel stack, but that's not a sparc64 specific problem. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

While playing with libiec61883 I've noticed that async_send is broken because it was doing copy_from_user(...., packet->data_size) before packet->data_size was set to any useful value. It got broken when packet->allocated_data_size got introduced, as hpsb_alloc_packet does not set packet->data_size anymore.
