To fetch a pending channel report word (crw) we use a kernel thread which triggers stcrw and sleeps on a semaphore. The s390 machine check handler uses crw_handle_channel_report to handle one crw if needed. This patch replaces the semaphore with a waitqueue (to block the kernel thread) and an atomic_t (to count the number of pending requests). By this we achieve the ability to force this thread to check for a pending crw (independent on when it is triggered by the machine check handler) and wait for this action to finish.

This patch introduces a proc file cio_settle. A write request to this file is blocked until all queued cio actions are handled. This will allow userspace to wait for pending work affecting device availability after changing cio_ignore or the hardware configuration.

We used to maintain 2 singlethreaded workqueues for synchronization and to trigger work from interrupt context. Since our latest cio changes we only use one of these workqueues. So get rid of the unused workqueue, rename the remaining one to "cio_work_q" and move its ownership to the channel subsystem driver.

The five-second delay can be rather annoying, and makes the system appear much less responsive when you connect a USB drive. It's also not entirely clear that it is needed - the settling delay has at least historically been an issue on some Apple iPods, for example, and some devices have been reported to need even more than the old 5s delay. But before we penalize them all, let's see how bad it really is. Some of the reasons for long delays seem to be actual historical kernel bugs that should probably never have been papered over with a delay in the first place (there's a Ubuntu bug report for 2.6.20 about a NULL pointer dereference unless 'delay_use' is 8 or more, for example). It also looks like some distros have already shipped with delay_use=0, so the five second default may well be totally historical. In other words: "Let's see if anybody screams".

commit ff097ddd (x86/PCI: MMCONFIG: manage pci_mmcfg_region as a list, not a table) introduced a nasty memory corruption when pci_mmcfg_list is empty. pci_mmcfg_check_end_bus_number() dereferences pci_mmcfg_list.prev even when the list is empty. The following write hits some variable near to pci_mmcfg_list. Further down a similar problem exists, where cfg->list.next is dereferenced unconditionally and a comparison with some variable near to pci_mmcfg_list happens. Add a check for the last element into the for_each_entry() loop and remove all the other crappy logic which is just a leftover of the old array based code which was replaced by the list conversion.

Joshua Roys authored
This fixes corrupted CIPSO packets when SELinux categories greater than 127 are used. The bug occured on the second (and later) loops through the while; the inner for loop through the ebitmap->maps array used the same index as the NetLabel catmap->bitmap array, even though the NetLabel bitmap is twice as long as the SELinux bitmap.

* 'upstream-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jgarzik/libata-dev: ahci: disable FPDMA auto-activate optimization on NVIDIA AHCI
-
Robert Hancock authored
Mike Cui reported that his system with an NVIDIA MCP79 (aka MCP7A) chipset stopped working with 2.6.32. The problem appears to be that 2.6.32 now enables the FPDMA auto-activate optimization in the ahci driver. The drive works fine with this enabled on an Intel AHCI so this appears to be a chipset bug. Since MCP79 is a fairly recent NVIDIA chipset and we don't have any info on whether any other NVIDIA chipsets have this issue, disable FPDMA AA optimization on all NVIDIA AHCI controllers for now.

To fix a bug and address the reviewers' comments regarding the ACPI GPE refcounting patch, do the following additional changes: o Remove the second argument of acpi_ev_enable_gpe(), 'write_to_hardware', because it is not necessary any more. o Add the "bad parameter" test against 'type' in acpi_enable_gpe() and acpi_disable_gpe(). o Make acpi_enable_gpe() only check 'status' for runtime GPEs if acpi_ev_enable_gpe() was actually called. o Make acpi_disable_gpe() return 'status' returned by acpi_ev_disable_gpe() and fix a bug where ACPI_GPE_TYPE_WAKE and ACPI_GPE_TYPE_RUNTIME were exchanged by mistake. o Add comments explaining why acpi_set_gpe() is used by the ACPI EC driver.
