Aacraid controller can hang on some nodes if kernel uses non-default
(powersave) ASPM policy. Controller hangs shortly after successful load and
hardware detection. Scsi error handler detects this hang and tries to restart
hardware but it does not help.
Initially it was noticed on RHEL6-based openVZ kernel after backporting
aacraid driver from mainline (RHEL6 kernel with original driver works well)
http://bugzilla.openvz.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2043
This issue happens because default ASPM policy was changed in Red Hat
kernels. Therefore guys from Red Hat have noticed this problem long time ago:
on Fedora 12
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=540478
on Fedora 14
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=679385
In RHEL6 kernel this issue was fixed, ASPM was disabled in aacraid driver. In
kernel changelog I've found that seems it was done by Matthew Garrett: -
[scsi] aacraid: Disable ASPM by default (Matthew Garrett) [599735]
However seems this patch was not submitted to mainline. I've reproduced this
issue on vanilla 3.1.0 kernel booted with "pcie_aspm.policy=powersave" option,
So I believe it makes sense to do it now.

This is just a cleanup, to silence static checker warnings. It
doesn't change how the code works.
buf[] can either be BUF_SIZE if this is called from sysfs, or it can
be 16 if it's called from aac_get_adapter_info() via
aac_get_serial_number(). We use the smaller limit here.
sizeof(dev->supplement_adapter_info.MfgPcbaSerialNo) is 12 so there
is actually no chance of hitting either limit.

The kernel already prints its build timestamp during boot, no need to
repeat it in random drivers and produce different object files each

Added new hardware device 0x28b interface for PMC-Sierra's SRC based
controller family.
- new src.c file for 0x28b specific functions
- new XPORT header required
- sync. command interface: doorbell bits shifted (SRC_ODR_SHIFT, SRC_IDR_SHIFT)
- async. Interface: different inbound queue handling, no outbound I2O
queue available, using doorbell ("PmDoorBellResponseSent") and
response buffer on the host ("host_rrq") for status
- changed AIF (adapter initiated FIBs) interface: "DoorBellAifPending"
bit to inform about pending AIF, "AifRequest" command to read AIF,
"NoMoreAifDataAvailable" to mark the end of the AIFs

Move the mid-layer's ->queuecommand() invocation from being locked
with the host lock to being unlocked to facilitate speeding up the
critical path for drivers who don't need this lock taken anyway.
The patch below presents a simple SCSI host lock push-down as an
equivalent transformation. No locking or other behavior should change
with this patch. All existing bugs and locking orders are preserved.
Additionally, add one parameter to queuecommand,
struct Scsi_Host *
and remove one parameter from queuecommand,
void (*done)(struct scsi_cmnd *)
Scsi_Host* is a convenient pointer that most host drivers need anyway,
and 'done' is redundant to struct scsi_cmnd->scsi_done.
Minimal code disturbance was attempted with this change. Most drivers
needed only two one-line modifications for their host lock push-down.

All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make
nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a
.llseek pointer.
The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek
and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that
the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains
the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek.
New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek
and call nonseekable_open at open time. Existing drivers can be converted
to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code
relies on calling seek on the device file.
The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains
comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was
chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will
be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not
seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle.
Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get
the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window.
Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic
patch that does all this.

All these files use the big kernel lock in a trivial
way to serialize their private file operations,
typically resulting from an earlier semi-automatic
pushdown from VFS.
None of these drivers appears to want to lock against
other code, and they all use the BKL as the top-level
lock in their file operations, meaning that there
is no lock-order inversion problem.
Consequently, we can remove the BKL completely,
replacing it with a per-file mutex in every case.
Using a scripted approach means we can avoid
typos.

This patch modifies scsi_host_template->change_queue_depth so that
it takes an argument indicating why it is being called. This will be
used so that if a LLD needs to do some extra processing when
handling queue fulls or later ramp ups, it can do so.
This is a simple port of the drivers setting a change_queue_depth
callback. In the patch I just have these LLDs adjust the queue depth
if the user was requesting it.

As JBOD devices (really just Simple Single Drive Volumes exported to
the SCSI channel) are managed, they fail to update correctly when the
driver triggers a SCSI scan. In addition, the ability to change
multiple arrays or JBODs at the same time was resulting in dropped

single configuration change notification from the Firmware.

With the sg table code, every SCSI driver is now either chain capable
or broken (or has sg_tablesize set so chaining is never activated), so
there's no need to have a check in the host template.
Also tidy up the code by moving the scatterlist size defines into the
SCSI includes and permit the last entry of the scatterlist pools not
to be a power of two.

The cards being added are supported in a limited sense already through
family matching, but we needed to add some functionality to the driver
to expose selectively the physical drives. These Physical drives are
specifically marked to not be part of any array and thus are declared
JBODs (Just a Bunch Of Drives) for generic SCSI access.
We report that this is the second patch in a set of two, but merely
depends on the stand-alone functionality of the first patch which adds
in that case the ability to report a driver feature flag via sysfs. We
leverage that functionality by reporting that this driver now supports
this new JBOD feature for the controller so that the array management
applications may react accordingly and guide the user as they manage
the controller.

Feature enhancement, adding a 'flags' entry that will reside in the
host controller's tree, with a newline separated list of arbitrary
ascii named features that indicate whether the combination of driver
and controller has support for said feature. Breaking from the
one-line output typical of sysfs entries, newline was added to tailor
for grep, or simple gets line by line string match within an
application. I added one for a compiler time check for existence of
debug print output, one for an optional manifest defined enhanced
status reporting in the logs, and one for runtime reporting whether
the controller and driver supports arrays larger than 2TB. Adaptec's
storage management software uses the last flag to determine whether to
make available the creation of arrays larger than 2TB, otherwise a
warning is posted.

I was amazed at how much embedded space was present in the aacraid
driver source files. Just selected five files from the set to clean up
for now and the attached patch swelled to 73K in size!
- Removed trailing space or tabs
- Removed spaces embedded within tabs
- Replaced leading 8 spaces with tabs
- Removed spaces before )
- Removed ClusterCommand as it was unused (noticed it as one triggered by above)
- Replaced scsi_status comparison with 0x02, to compare against SAM_STATUS_CHECK_CONDITION.
- Replaced a long series of spaces with tabs
- Replaced some simple if...defined() with ifdef/ifndef

Actually there are several but one is trivially fixed
1. FSACTL_GET_NEXT_ADAPTER_FIB ioctl does not lock dev->fib_list
but needs to
2. Ditto for FSACTL_CLOSE_GET_ADAPTER_FIB
3. It is possible to construct an attack via the SRB ioctls where
the user obtains assorted elevated privileges. Various approaches are
possible, the trivial ones being things like writing to the raw media
via scsi commands and the swap image of other executing programs with
higher privileges.
So the ioctls should be CAP_SYS_RAWIO - at least all the FIB manipulating
ones. This is a bandaid fix for #3 but probably the ioctls should grow
their own capable checks. The other two bugs need someone competent in that
driver to fix them.

The adapter queue is divided up equally to all the arrays to prevent
command starvation to any individual array. On the other hand,
physical targets are only granted a queue depth of one each. The code
prior to this patch used to deal with the incremental discovery of
targets, but the driver knows how many arrays are present prior to the
scan so this knowledge is used to generate a better estimate for the
queue depth.
Remove the capability of 'physical=0' from preventing access to the
class of adapters that have the RAID/SCSI mode of operation since none
of the physicals on the SCSI channel are candidates ever for an array.
As always, the user can override this default queue depth policy by
making the appropriate adjustments utilizing sysfs.

In experiments in the lab we managed to trigger an Adapter firmware
panic (BlinkLED) coincidentally while several pass-through ioctl
command from the management software were outstanding on a bug only
present on a class of RAID Adapters that require a hardware reset
rather than a commanded reset. The net result was an attempt to time
out the management software command as if it came from the SCSI layer
resulting in an OS panic.
Adapters that use commanded reset, management commands are returned
failed by the Adapter correctly. The adapter firmware panic that
resulted in this condition was also resolved, and there were no
adapters in the field with this specific firmware bug so we do not
expect any field reports. This is a rare or unlikely corner condition,
and no reports have ever been forwarded from the field.

Big endian systems issues discovered in the aacraid driver. Somewhat
reverses a patch from November 7th of last year that removed swap
operations because they formerly were being assigned to an u8 array
when they should have been assigned to an le32 array.
This patch is largely inert for any little endian processor
architecture. It resolves a bug in delivering the BlinkLED AIF event
to registered applications when the adapter or associated hardware was
reset due to ill health. A rare corner case occurrence, also largely
unnoticed by any as it was a new (untested!) feature.

Controller 3/Di
As reported in http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3D9133 it was
discovered that the PERC line of controllers lacked a key 64 bit
ScatterGather capable SCSI pass-through function. The adapters are still
capable of 64 bit ScatterGather I/O commands, but these two can not be
mixed. This problem was exacerbated by the introduction of the SCSI
Generic access to the DASD physical devices.
The fix for users before this patch is applied is aacraid.dacmode=3D0 on
the kernel command line to disable 64 bit I/O.
The enclosed patch introduces a new adapter quirk and tries to limp
along by enabling pass-through in situations where memory is 32 bit
addressable on 64 bit machines, or disable the pass-through functions
altogether. I expect that the check for 32 bit addressable memory to be
controversial in that it can be incorrect in non-Dell non-Intel systems
that PERC would never be installed under, the alternative is to disable
pass-through in all cases which could be reported as another regression.
Pass-through is used for SCSI Generic access to the physical devices, or
for the management applications to properly function.
In systems where this patch has disabled pass-through because it is
unsupportable in combination with I/O performance, the user can choose
to enable pass-through by turning off dacmode (aacraid.dacmode=3D0) or
limiting the discovered kernel memory (mem=3D4G) with an associated loss
in runtime performance. If we chose instead to turn off 64 bit dacmode
for the adapters with this quirk, then this would be reported as another
regression.

Actually there are a lot of endianess warnings, fortunately most of them
harmless. The patch below fixes all of them up (including the ones in
the patch I replied to), except for aac_init_adapter which is really odd
and I don't know what to do.

Some of our vendors have requested that our adapters ignore the hardware
reset attempts during recovery and have enforced this with changes in
Adapter Firmware. Some of our customers have requested the option to be
able to reset the adapter under adverse adapter failure, we even had a
few defects reported here considering it a regression that the Adapter
could not be reset. This patch addresses this dichotomy. The user can
force the adapter to be reset if it supports the IOP_RESET_ALWAYS
command, in cases where the adapter has been programmed to ignore the
reset, by setting the aacraid.check_reset parameter to a value of -1.
The driver will not reset an Adapter that does not support the reset
command(s).
This patch also fixes and cleans up some of the logic associated with
resetting the adapter.

Got a panic in the threading code on an older kernel when the Adapter
