2013-05-02[SCSI] fnic: Kernel panic due to FIP mode misconfigurationHiral Patel
If switch configured in FIP and adapter configured in non-fip mode, driver panics while queueing FIP frame in non-existing fip_frame_queue. Added config check before queueing FIP frame in misconfiguration case to avoid kernel panic. Signed-off-by: Hiral Patel <hiralpat@cisco.com> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <JBottomley@Parallels.com>
2013-05-02[SCSI] fnic: FIP VLAN Discovery Feature SupportHiral Patel
FIP VLAN discovery discovers the FCoE VLAN that will be used by all other FIP protocols as well as by the FCoE encapsulation for Fibre Channel payloads on the established virtual link. One of the goals of FC-BB-5 was to be as nonintrusive as possible on initiators and targets, and therefore FIP VLAN discovery occurs in the native VLAN used by the initiator or target to exchange Ethernet traffic. The FIP VLAN discovery protocol is the only FIP protocol running on the native VLAN; all other FIP protocols run on the discovered FCoE VLANs. If an administrator has manually configured FCoE VLANs on ENodes and FCFs, there is no need to use this protocol. FIP and FCoE will run over the configured VLANs. An ENode without FCoE VLANs configuration would use this automated discovery protocol to discover over which VLANs FCoE is running. The ENode sends a FIP VLAN discovery request to a multicast MAC address called All-FCF-MACs, which is a multicast MAC address to which all FCFs listen. All FCFs that can be reached in the native VLAN of the ENode are expected to respond on the same VLAN with a response that lists one or more FCoE VLANs that are available for the ENode's VN_Port login. This protocol has the sole purpose of allowing the ENode to discover all the available FCoE VLANs. Now the ENode may enable a subset of these VLANs for FCoE Running the FIP protocol in these VLANs on a per VLAN basis. And FCoE data transactions also would occur on this VLAN. Hence, Except for FIP VLAN discovery, all other FIP and FCoE traffic runs on the selected FCoE VLAN. Its only the FIP VLAN Discovery protocol that is permitted to run on the Default native VLAN of the system. [**** NOTE ****] We are working on moving this feature definitions and functionality to libfcoe module. We need this patch to be approved, as Suse is looking forward to merge this feature in SLES 11 SP3 release. Once this patch is approved, we will submit patch which should move vlan discovery feature to libfoce.

2013-05-01tty: fix up atime/mtime mess, take threeLinus Torvalds
We first tried to avoid updating atime/mtime entirely (commit b0de59b5733d: "TTY: do not update atime/mtime on read/write"), and then limited it to only update it occasionally (commit 37b7f3c76595: "TTY: fix atime/mtime regression"), but it turns out that this was both insufficient and overkill. It was insufficient because we let people attach to the shared ptmx node to see activity without even reading atime/mtime, and it was overkill because the "only once a minute" means that you can't really tell an idle person from an active one with 'w'. So this tries to fix the problem properly. It marks the shared ptmx node as un-notifiable, and it lowers the "only once a minute" to a few seconds instead - still long enough that you can't time individual keystrokes, but short enough that you can tell whether somebody is active or not.

2013-05-01dma-buf: replace dma_buf_export() with dma_buf_export_named()Sumit Semwal
For debugging purposes, it is useful to have a name-string added while exporting buffers. Hence, dma_buf_export() is replaced with dma_buf_export_named(), which additionally takes 'exp_name' as a parameter. For backward compatibility, and for lazy exporters who don't wish to name themselves, a #define dma_buf_export() is also made available, which adds a __FILE__ instead of 'exp_name'.

2013-04-30dump_stack: implement arch-specific hardware description in task dumpsTejun Heo
x86 and ia64 can acquire extra hardware identification information from DMI and print it along with task dumps; however, the usage isn't consistent. * x86 show_regs() collects vendor, product and board strings and print them out with PID, comm and utsname. Some of the information is printed again later in the same dump. * warn_slowpath_common() explicitly accesses the DMI board and prints it out with "Hardware name:" label. This applies to both x86 and ia64 but is irrelevant on all other archs. * ia64 doesn't show DMI information on other non-WARN dumps. This patch introduces arch-specific hardware description used by dump_stack(). It can be set by calling dump_stack_set_arch_desc() during boot and, if exists, printed out in a separate line with "Hardware name:" label. dmi_set_dump_stack_arch_desc() is added which sets arch-specific description from DMI data. It uses dmi_ids_string[] which is set from dmi_present() used for DMI debug message. It is superset of the information x86 show_regs() is using. The function is called from x86 and ia64 boot code right after dmi_scan_machine(). This makes the explicit DMI handling in warn_slowpath_common() unnecessary. Removed. show_regs() isn't yet converted to use generic debug information printing and this patch doesn't remove the duplicate DMI handling in x86 show_regs(). The next patch will unify show_regs() handling and remove the duplication. An example WARN dump follows.

2013-04-30dmi: morph dmi_dump_ids() into dmi_format_ids() which formats into a bufferTejun Heo
We're goning to use DMI identification for other purposes too. Morph dmi_dump_ids() which is used to print DMI identification as a debug message during boot into dmi_format_ids() which formats the same information sans the leading "DMI:" tag into a string buffer. dmi_present() is updated to format the information into dmi_ids_string[] using the new function and print it with "DMI:" prefix. dmi_ids_string[] will be used for another purpose by a future patch.

2013-04-30ACPI/libata: Restore libata.noacpi supportLv Zheng
This patch restores libata.noacpi support to libata-acpi.c. There are broken optional control methods for ATA controller devices in the real world. The libata.noacpi has been used for a long time as a workaround to deal with issues caused by the broken ASL codes. 1. The "noacpi" option is introduced by the following commit: commit 11ef697b37e3c85ce1ac21f7711babf1f5b12784 Date: Thu, 28 Sep 2006 11:29:01 -0700 Subject: libata: ACPI and _GTF support 2. The "noacpi" option is renamed to "libata_noacpi" by the following commit: commit d7d0dad62a641c156386288a747c1a2f6bb2e42d Date: Wed, 28 Mar 2007 01:57:37 -0400 Subject: [libata] Disable ACPI by default; fix namespace problems 3. Some of its logics are changed over time - becomes relying on the "acpi_handle" bound to the ATA devices since this commit: commit fafbae87db88a73b166d3bc3294d209207f27056 Date: Tue, 15 May 2007 03:28:16 +0900 Subject: libata-acpi: implement ata_acpi_associate() 4. The option is deleted by the following commit: commit 30dcf76acc695cbd2fa919e294670fe9552e16e7 Date: Mon, 25 Jun 2012 16:13:04 +0800 Subject: libata: migrate ACPI code over to new bindings But the libata.noacpi setup is still left in the kernel without codes to implement it. So the deletion introduces a
