Pull block fixes from Jens Axboe: "Alright, this time from 10K up in the air. Collection of fixes that have been queued up since the merge window opened, hence postponed until later in the cycle. The pull request contains: - A bunch of fixes for the xen blk front/back driver. - A round of fixes for the new IBM RamSan driver, fixing various nasty issues. - Fixes for multiple drives from Wei Yongjun, bad handling of return values and wrong pointer math. - A fix for loop properly killing partitions when being detached." * tag 'for-linus-20130331' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block: (25 commits) mg_disk: fix error return code in mg_probe() rsxx: remove unused variable rsxx: enable error return of rsxx_eeh_save_issued_dmas() block: removes dynamic allocation on stack Block: blk-flush: Fixed indent code style cciss: fix invalid use of sizeof in cciss_find_cfgtables() loop: cleanup partitions when detaching loop device loop: fix error return code in loop_add() mtip32xx: fix error return code in mtip_pci_probe() xen-blkfront: remove frame list from blk_shadow xen-blkfront: pre-allocate pages for requests xen-blkback: don't store dev_bus_addr xen-blkfront: switch from llist to list xen-blkback: fix foreach_grant_safe to handle empty lists xen-blkfront: replace kmalloc and then memcpy with kmemdup xen-blkback: fix dispatch_rw_block_io() error path rsxx: fix missing unlock on error return in rsxx_eeh_remap_dmas() Adding in EEH support to the IBM FlashSystem 70/80 device driver block: IBM RamSan 70/80 error message bug fix. block: IBM RamSan 70/80 branding changes. ...

Konrad writes: [the branch] has a bunch of fixes. They vary from being able to deal with unknown requests, overflow in statistics, compile warnings, bug in the error path, removal of unnecessary logic. There is also one performance fix - which is to allocate pages for requests when the driver loads - instead of doing it per request

xen-pciback: notify hypervisor about devices intended to be assigned to guests

2013-03-22T14:20:55Z

For MSI-X capable devices the hypervisor wants to write protect the MSI-X table and PBA, yet it can't assume that resources have been assigned to their final values at device enumeration time. Thus have pciback do that notification, as having the device controlled by it is a prerequisite to assigning the device to guests anyway. This is the kernel part of hypervisor side commit 4245d33 ("x86/MSI: add mechanism to fully protect MSI-X table from PV guest accesses") on the master branch of git://xenbits.xen.org/xen.git.

xen/blkback: correctly respond to unknown, non-native requests

2013-03-11T17:54:28Z

If the frontend is using a non-native protocol (e.g., a 64-bit frontend with a 32-bit backend) and it sent an unrecognized request, the request was not translated and the response would have the incorrect ID. This may cause the frontend driver to behave incorrectly or crash. Since the ID field in the request is always in the same place, regardless of the request type we can get the correct ID and make a valid response (which will report BLKIF_RSP_EOPNOTSUPP). This bug affected 64-bit SLES 11 guests when using a 32-bit backend. This guest does a BLKIF_OP_RESERVED_1 (BLKIF_OP_PACKET in the SLES source) and would crash in blkif_int() as the ID in the response would be invalid.

xen: event channel arrays are xen_ulong_t and not unsigned long

2013-02-20T13:45:07Z

On ARM we want these to be the same size on 32- and 64-bit. This is an ABI change on ARM. X86 does not change.

xen/acpi: ACPI cpu hotplug

2013-02-20T03:02:29Z

This patch implement real Xen ACPI cpu hotplug driver as module. When loaded, it replaces Xen stub driver. For booting existed cpus, the driver enumerates them. For hotadded cpus, which added at runtime and notify OS via device or container event, the driver is invoked to add them, parsing cpu information, hypercalling to Xen hypervisor to add them, and finally setting up new /sys interface for them.

xen/acpi: ACPI memory hotplug

2013-02-20T03:02:26Z

This patch implements real Xen acpi memory hotplug driver as module. When loaded, it replaces Xen stub driver. When an acpi memory device hotadd event occurs, it notifies OS and invokes notification callback, adding related memory device and parsing memory information, finally hypercall to xen hypervisor to add memory.

xen: implement updated XENMEM_add_to_physmap_range ABI

2013-02-20T03:01:55Z

Allows for more fine grained error reporting. Only used by PVH and ARM both of which are marked EXPERIMENTAL precisely because the ABI is not yet stable Signed-off-by: Ian Campbell [v1: Rebased without PVH patches] Signed-off-by: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk
