      ACPI, PCI: Penalize legacy IRQ used by ACPI SCI · b8fecc9f
      Jiang Liu authored
      commit 5d0ddfeb upstream.
      
      Nick Meier reported a regression with HyperV that "
        After rebooting the VM, the following messages are logged in syslog
        when trying to load the tulip driver:
          tulip: Linux Tulip drivers version 1.1.15 (Feb 27, 2007)
          tulip: 0000:00:0a.0: PCI INT A: failed to register GSI
          tulip: Cannot enable tulip board #0, aborting
          tulip: probe of 0000:00:0a.0 failed with error -16
        Errors occur in 3.19.0 kernel
        Works in 3.17 kernel.
      "
      
      According to the ACPI dump file posted by Nick at
      https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1440072
      
      The ACPI MADT table includes an interrupt source overridden entry for
      ACPI SCI:
      [236h 0566  1]                Subtable Type : 02 <Interrupt Source Override>
      [237h 0567  1]                       Length : 0A
      [238h 0568  1]                          Bus : 00
      [239h 0569  1]                       Source : 09
      [23Ah 0570  4]                    Interrupt : 00000009
      [23Eh 0574  2]        Flags (decoded below) : 000D
                                         Polarity : 1
                                     Trigger Mode : 3
      
      And in DSDT table, we have _PRT method to define PCI interrupts, which
      eventually goes to:
              Name (PRSA, ResourceTemplate ()
              {
                  IRQ (Level, ActiveLow, Shared, )
                      {3,4,5,7,9,10,11,12,14,15}
              })
              Name (PRSB, ResourceTemplate ()
              {
                  IRQ (Level, ActiveLow, Shared, )
                      {3,4,5,7,9,10,11,12,14,15}
              })
              Name (PRSC, ResourceTemplate ()
              {
                  IRQ (Level, ActiveLow, Shared, )
                      {3,4,5,7,9,10,11,12,14,15}
              })
              Name (PRSD, ResourceTemplate ()
              {
                  IRQ (Level, ActiveLow, Shared, )
                      {3,4,5,7,9,10,11,12,14,15}
              })
      
      According to the MADT and DSDT tables, IRQ 9 may be used for:
       1) ACPI SCI in level, high mode
       2) PCI legacy IRQ in level, low mode
      So there's a conflict in polarity setting for IRQ 9.
      
      Prior to commit cd68f6bd ("x86, irq, acpi: Get rid of special
      handling of GSI for ACPI SCI"), ACPI SCI is handled specially and
      there's no check for conflicts between ACPI SCI and PCI legagy IRQ.
      And it seems that the HyperV hypervisor doesn't make use of the
      polarity configuration in IOAPIC entry, so it just works.
      
      Commit cd68f6bd gets rid of the specially handling of ACPI SCI,
      and then the pin attribute checking code discloses the conflicts
      between ACPI SCI and PCI legacy IRQ on HyperV virtual machine,
      and rejects the request to assign IRQ9 to PCI devices.
      
      So penalize legacy IRQ used by ACPI SCI and mark it unusable if ACPI
      SCI attributes conflict with PCI IRQ attributes.

      ext4: fix loss of delalloc extent info in ext4_zero_range() · 68e8fb56
      Eric Whitney authored
      commit 94426f4b upstream.
      
      In ext4_zero_range(), removing a file's entire block range from the
      extent status tree removes all records of that file's delalloc extents.
      The delalloc accounting code uses this information, and its loss can
      then lead to accounting errors and kernel warnings at writeback time and
      subsequent file system damage.  This is most noticeable on bigalloc
      file systems where code in ext4_ext_map_blocks() handles cases where
      delalloc extents share clusters with a newly allocated extent.
      
      Because we're not deleting a block range and are correctly updating the
      status of its associated extent, there is no need to remove anything
      from the extent status tree.
      
      When this patch is combined with an unrelated bug fix for
      ext4_zero_range(), kernel warnings and e2fsck errors reported during
      xfstests runs on bigalloc filesystems are greatly reduced without
      introducing regressions on other xfstests-bld test scenarios.
