07db518313 [SCSI] qla2xxx: Stall mid-layer error handlers while rport is blocked.
Stall error handler if attempting recovery while an rport is
blocked.  This avoids device offline scenarios due to errors in
the error handler.

Reference implementation from lpfc/mptfc.

d8b4521349 [SCSI] qla2xxx: Add iIDMA support.
iIDMA (Intelligent Interleaved Direct Memory Access) allows for
the HBA hardware to send FC frames at the rate at which they can
be received by a target device.  By taking advantage of the
higher link rate, the HBA can maximize bandwidth utilization in a
heterogeneous multi-speed SAN.

Within a fabric topology, port speed detection is done via a Name
Server command (GFPN_ID) followed by a Fabric Management command
(GPSC).  In an FCAL/N2N topology, port speed is based on the HBA
link-rate.

8f6fd19f1f [SCSI] enable clustering for tmscsim
following an email from John Adams <johna@onevista.com> to me with a patch
to enable tmscsim to use blocks up to 1MB and a discussion on linux-scsi,
below is a patch to enable clustering for tmscsim. I made it switchable
with a module parameter, with default "enable" - in case somebody gets
problems with it. Unfortunately, I was not able to check if this alone
lets you use any bigger blocks with a tape, as my tape seems to only
support 1 block size - only "mt setblk 1" is successful, any other value
fails. OTOH, testing on a P-133 showed that enabling clustering alone
improves throughput by 10% and reduces CPU load by another 10%, so, seems
a worthy thing to do. As for setting max_sectors, that might become a
separate patch...

f5ebbeb57e [SCSI] megaraid: Use the proper type to hold the irq number.
When testing on a Unisys machine it was discovered that the megaraid driver
would not initialize as it was requesting irq 162 instead of irq 1442 it
was assigned.  The problem was the irq number had been truncated by being
stored in an unsigned char.

This patches fixes that problem and the driver now appears to work.

The ioctl interface appears fundamentally broken as it exports the irq
number to user space in an unsigned char.

6460e75a10 [SCSI] sg: fixes for large page_size
This sg driver patch addresses the problem with larger
page sizes reported by Brian King in this post:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-scsi&m=115867718623631&w=2
Some other related matters are also addressed. Some of these
prevent oopses when the SG_SCATTER_SZ or scatter_elem_sz are
set to inappropriate values.

The scatter_elem_sz has been tested up to 4 MB which should
make the largest data transfer with one SCSI command, 32 MB
less one block, achievable with a relatively small number
of elements in the scatter gather list.

ChangeLog:
    - add scatter_elem_sz boot time parameter and sysfs module
      parameter that is initialized to SG_SCATTER_SZ
    - the driver will then adjust scatter_elem_sz to be the
      max(given(scatter_elem_sz), PAGE_SIZE)
      It will also round it up, if necessary, to be a power
      of two
    - clean up sg.h header, correct bad urls and some statements
      that are no longer valid
    - make the def_reserved_size sysfs module attribute writable

70e0eb8ef1 [PATCH] Split i386 and x86_64 ptrace.h
The use of SEGMENT_RPL_MASK in the i386 ptrace.h introduced by
x86-allow-a-kernel-to-not-be-in-ring-0.patch broke the UML build, as UML
includes the underlying architecture's ptrace.h, but has no easy access to the
x86 segment definitions.

Rather than kludging around this, as in the past, this patch splits the
userspace-usable parts, which are the bits that UML needs, of ptrace.h into
ptrace-abi.h, which is included back into ptrace.h.  Thus, there is no net
effect on i386.

As a side-effect, this creates a ptrace header which is close to being usable
in /usr/include.

x86_64 is also treated in this way for consistency.  There was some trailing
whitespace there, which is cleaned up.

75e29b18d9 [PATCH] uml: stack usage reduction
The KSTK_* macros used an inordinate amount of stack.  In order to overcome
an impedance mismatch between their interface, which just returns a single
register value, and the interface of get_thread_regs, which took a full
pt_regs, the implementation created an on-stack pt_regs, filled it in, and
returned one field.  do_task_stat calls KSTK_* twice, resulting in two
local pt_regs, blowing out the stack.

This patch changes the interface (and name) of get_thread_regs to just
return a single register from a jmp_buf.

The include of archsetjmp.h" in registers.h to get the definition of
jmp_buf exposed a bogus include of <setjmp.h> in start_up.c.  <setjmp.h>
shouldn't be used anywhere any more since UML uses the klibc
setjmp/longjmp.

537ae946e8 [PATCH] uml: timer cleanups
set_interval returns an error instead of panicing if setitimer fails.  Some of
its callers now check the return.

enable_timer is largely tt-mode-specific, so it is marked as such, and the
only skas-mode caller is made to call set-interval instead.

user_time_init was a no-value-added wrapper around set_interval, so it is
gone.

Since set_interval is now called from kernel code, callers no longer pass
ITIMER_* to it.  Instead, they pass a flag which is converted into ITIMER_REAL
or ITIMER_VIRTUAL.

4b84c69b5f [PATCH] uml: Move signal handlers to arch code
Have most signals go through an arch-provided handler which recovers the
sigcontext and then calls a generic handler.  This replaces the
ARCH_GET_SIGCONTEXT macro, which was somewhat fragile.  On x86_64, recovering
%rdx (which holds the sigcontext pointer) must be the first thing that
happens.  sig_handler duly invokes that first, but there is no guarantee that
I can see that instructions won't be reordered such that %rdx is used before
that.  Having the arch provide the handler seems much more robust.

Some signals in some parts of UML require their own handlers - these places
don't call set_handler any more.  They call sigaction or signal themselves.

19bdf0409f [PATCH] uml: SIGIO cleanups
- Various cleanups in the sigio code.

- Removed explicit zero-initializations of a few structures.

- Improved some error messages.

- An API change - there was an asymmetry between reactivate_fd calling
  maybe_sigio_broken, which goes through all the machinery of figuring out if
  a file descriptor supports SIGIO and applying the workaround to it if not,
  and deactivate_fd, which just turns off the descriptor.

  This is changed so that only activate_fd calls maybe_sigio_broken, when
  the descriptor is first seen.  reactivate_fd now calls add_sigio_fd, which
  is symmetric with ignore_sigio_fd.

  This removes a recursion which makes a critical section look more critical
  than it really was, obsoleting a big comment to that effect.  This requires
  keeping track of all descriptors which are getting the SIGIO treatment, not
  just the ones being polled at any given moment, so that reactivate_fd,
  through add_sigio_fd, doesn't try to tell the SIGIO thread about descriptors
  it doesn't care about.

6edf428ed1 [PATCH] uml: Improve SIGBUS diagnostics
UML can get a SIGBUS anywhere if the tmpfs mount being used for its memory
runs out of space.  This patch adds a printk before the panic to provide a
clue as to what likely went wrong.

6b7aaad9ba [PATCH] uml: Fix handling of failed execs of helpers
There were some bugs in handling failures to exec helper programs.  errno was
passed back from the child with the wrong sign.  It was also ignored.  In the
case where it mattered, the errno from the (successful) read in the parent was
used instead.
