The driver currently keeps local copies of the hardware request/response queue indexes. But it expends significant effort ensuring consistency between the two views, and still gets it wrong after an error or reset occurs. This patch removes the local copies, in favour of just accessing the hardware whenever we need them. Eventually this may need to be tweaked again for NCQ, but for now this works and solves problems some users were seeing.

The 60xx chips, and possibly others, incorrectly assert DEV_IRQ interrupts on a regular basis. The cause of this is under investigation (by me and in theory by Marvell also), but regardless we do need to deal with these events. This patch tidies up some interrupt handler code, and ensures that we ignore DEV_IRQ interrupts when the drive still has ATA_BUSY asserted.

The interface control register of the 60xx (and later) Marvell chip requires certain bits to always be set when writing to it. These bits incorrectly read-back as zeros, so the pattern must be ORed in with each write of the register. Also, bit 12 should NOT be set (note that Marvell's own driver also had bit-12 wrong here). While we're at it, we also now do pci_set_master() in the init code. Signed-off-by: Mark Lord <liml@rtr.ca> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

In some systems, it is possible that the BIOS may have enabled interrupt coalescing for the Marvell controllers which support it. This patch adds code to detect/ack interrupts from the chip's coalescing (combing) logic. Signed-off-by: Mark Lord <liml@rtr.ca> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

The mv_err_intr() function is invoked from the driver's interrupt handler, as well as from the timeout function. This patch prevents it from triggering a one-after-the-other double reset of the controller when invoked from the timeout function. This also adds a check for a timeout race condition that has been observed to occur with this driver in earlier kernels. This should not be needed, in theory, but in practice it has caught bugs. Maybe nuke it at a later date. Signed-off-by: Mark Lord <liml@rtr.ca> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

When performing bound checks during the parameter processing, we want to use the real chunk and paramter lengths for bounds instead of the rounded ones. This prevents us from potentially walking of the end if the chunk length was miscalculated. We still use rounded lengths when advancing the pointer. This was found during a conformance test that changed the chunk length without modifying parameters.

sctp_rcv(). The goal is to hold the ref on the association/endpoint throughout the state-machine process. We accomplish like this: /* ref on the assoc/ep is taken during lookup */ if owned_by_user(sk) sctp_add_backlog(skb, sk); else inqueue_push(skb, sk); /* drop the ref on the assoc/ep */ However, in sctp_add_backlog() we take the ref on assoc/ep and hold it while the skb is on the backlog queue. This allows us to get rid of the sock_hold/sock_put in the lookup routines. Now sctp_backlog_rcv() needs to account for potential association move. In the unlikely event that association moved, we need to retest if the new socket is locked by user. If we don't this, we may have two packets racing up the stack toward the same socket and we can't deal with it. If the new socket is still locked, we'll just add the skb to its backlog continuing to hold the ref on the association. This get's rid of the need to move packets from one backlog to another and it also safe in case new packets arrive on the same backlog queue. The last step, is to lock the new socket when we are moving the association to it. This is needed in case any new packets arrive on the association when it moved. We want these to go to the backlog since we would like to avoid the race between this new packet and a packet that may be sitting on the backlog queue of the old socket toward the same association.

Solar Designer authored
Solar Designer found a race condition in do_add_counters(). The beginning of paddc is supposed to be the same as tmp which was sanity-checked above, but it might not be the same in reality. In case the integer overflow and/or the race condition are triggered, paddc->num_counters might not match the allocation size for paddc. If the check below (t->private->number != paddc->num_counters) nevertheless passes (perhaps this requires the race condition to be triggered), IPT_ENTRY_ITERATE() would read kernel memory beyond the allocation size, potentially causing an oops or leaking sensitive data (e.g., passwords from host system or from another VPS) via counter increments. This requires CAP_NET_ADMIN.

If we post a list of length 256 exactly, nreq in doorbell gets set to 256 which is wrong: it should be encoded by 0. This is because we only zero it out on the next WR, which may not be there.

Apple decided to copy some USB stupidity over to FireWire. The sector number returned by iPods from read_capacity is one too many. This may cause I/O errors, especially if the kernel is configured for EFI partition support. We use the same workaround as usb-storage but have to check for different model IDs. http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=114233262300001 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=187409 Acknowledgements: Diagnosis and therapy by Mathieu Chouquet-Stringer <ml2news@free.fr>, additional data about affected and unaffected Apple hardware from Vladimir Kotal, Sander De Graaf, Bryan Olmstead and Hugh Dixon.

Grand unification of the three types of workarounds we have so far. The "skip mode page 8" workaround is now limited to devices which pretend to be of TYPE_DISK instead of TYPE_RBC. This workaround is no longer enabled for Initio bridges. Patch update in anticipation of more workarounds: - Add module parameter "workarounds". - Deprecate parameter "force_inquiry_hack". - Compose the blacklist of a compound type for better readability and extensibility. - Remove a now unused #define.
