a7bbc7f40a [SCSI] fcoe, libfc: use single frame allocation API
Cleans up frame allocation APIs to have just single fc_frame_alloc API.

Removes _fc_frame_alloc, renames __fc_frame_alloc to _fc_frame_alloc.

Modifies fc_fcp_send_data for removed _fc_frame_alloc, fc_fcp_send_data
was the only user of removed _fc_frame_alloc.

Also Adds check in fc_frame_alloc to do mod by 4 for only non-zero
len value.

This patch is prep work to fix can_queue reducing in next patch.
Single fc_frame_alloc API helps in fixing can_queue reducing in
next patch.

70b51aabf3 [SCSI] libfcoe: formatting and comment cleanups
Ensures that there are kernel-doc style comments for all
routines and structures.

There were also a few instances of fc_lport's named 'lp'
which were switched to 'lport' as per the libfc/libfcoe/fcoe
naming convention.

Also, emacs 'indent-region' and 'tabify' were ran on libfcoe.c.

3a3b42bf89 [SCSI] libfc: Formatting cleanups across libfc
This patch makes a variety of cleanup changes to all libfc files.

This patch adds kernel-doc headers to all functions lacking them
and attempts to better format existing headers. It also add kernel-doc
headers to structures.

This patch ensures that the current naming conventions for local ports,
remote ports and remote port private data is upheld in the following
manner.

struct               instance (i.e. variable name)
--------------------------------------------------
fc_lport                      lport
fc_rport                      rport
fc_rport_libfc_priv           rpriv
fc_rport_priv                 rdata

I also renamed dns_rp and ptp_rp to dns_rdata and ptp_rdata
respectively.

I used emacs 'indent-region' and 'tabify' on all libfc files
to correct spacing alignments.

I feel sorry for anyone attempting to review this patch.

11b5618866 [SCSI] libfcoe, fcoe: libfcoe NPIV support
The FIP code in libfcoe needed several changes to support NPIV

1) dst_src_addr needs to be managed per-n_port-ID for FPMA fabrics with NPIV
   enabled.  Managing the MAC address is now handled in fcoe, with some slight
   changes to update_mac() and a new get_src_addr() function pointer.

2) The libfc elsct_send() hook is used to setup FCoE specific response
   handlers for FIP encapsulated ELS exchanges.  This lets the FCoE specific
   handling know which VN_Port the exchange is for, and doesn't require
   tracking OX_IDs.  It might be possible to roll back to the full FIP frame
   in these, but for now I've just stashed the contents of the MAC address
   descriptor in the skb context block for later use.  Also, because
   fcoe_elsct_send() just passes control on to fc_elsct_send(), all transmits
   still come through the normal frame_send() path.

3) The NPIV changes added a mutex hold in the keep alive sending, the lport
   mutex is protecting the vport list.  We can't take a mutex from a timer,
   so move the FIP keep alive logic to the link work struct.

8faecddb21 [SCSI] libfc: vport link handling and fc_vport state managment
NPIV vports are managed in libfc by changing their virtual link state
when the parent N_Ports internal state changes.  The vport link is only
online when the N_Port is in a ready state (logged into the fabric).

vport_state is updated as needed in this patch as well, currently the states
LINKDOWN, INITIALIZING, ACTIVE, DSIABLED, and NO_FABRIC_SUPP are used.

This also changes the fc_host port_state handling to differentiate between
LINKDOWN and OFFLINE.

86221969e2 [SCSI] libfc: changes to libfc_host_alloc to consolidate initialization with allocation
I'd like to keep basic initialization together with allocation, which means
this can't just be a tail-call to scsi_host_alloc.

This is needed to create a generic libfc host allocation routine for NPIV
VN_Ports, which will share the exchange ID space (through sharing exchange
manager structures) with the parent lport.  In order to clone the exchange
manager list when the lport is allocated, the list head must be initialized
earlier.

Also, update fnic to use the libfc_host_alloc so that later changes do not break
it. (contribution by Joe Eykholt)

1a7b75ae71 [SCSI] libfc: Move non-common routines and prototypes out of libfc.h
This patch moves all non-common routines and function prototypes
out of libfc.h and into the appropriate .c files. It makes these
routines 'static' when necessary and removes any unnecessary EXPORT_SYMBOL
statements.

A result of moving the fc_exch_seq_send, fc_seq_els_rsp_send, fc_exch_alloc
and fc_seq_start_next prototypes out of libfc.h is that they were no longer
being imported into fc_exch.c when libfc.h was included. This caused errors
where routines in fc_exch.c were looking for undefined symbols. To fix this
this patch reorganizes fc_seq_alloc, fc_seq_start_next and
fc_seq_start_next_locked. This move also made it so that
fc_seq_start_next_locked did not need to be prototyped at the top of
fc_exch.c.

4a84067dbf [SCSI] add queue_depth ramp up code
Current FC HBA queue_depth ramp up code depends on last queue
full time. The sdev already  has last_queue_full_time field to
track last queue full time but stored value is truncated by
last four bits.

So this patch updates last_queue_full_time without truncating
last 4 bits to store full value and then updates its only
current usages in scsi_track_queue_full to ignore last four bits
to keep current usages same while also use this field
in added ramp up code.

Adds scsi_handle_queue_ramp_up to ramp up queue_depth on
successful completion of IO. The scsi_handle_queue_ramp_up will
do ramp up on all luns of a target, just same as ramp down done
on all luns on a target.

The ramp up is skipped in case the change_queue_depth is not
supported by LLD or already reached to added max_queue_depth.

Updates added max_queue_depth on every new update to default
queue_depth value.

The ramp up is also skipped if lapsed time since either last
queue ramp up or down is less than LLD specified
queue_ramp_up_period.

Adds queue_ramp_up_period to sysfs but only if change_queue_depth
is supported since ramp up and queue_ramp_up_period is needed only
in case change_queue_depth is supported first.

Initializes queue_ramp_up_period to 120HZ jiffies as initial
default value, it is same as used in existing lpfc and qla2xxx.

-v2
 Combined all ramp code into this single patch.

-v3
 Moves max_queue_depth initialization after slave_configure is
called from after slave_alloc calling done. Also adjusted
max_queue_depth check to skip ramp up if current queue_depth
is >= max_queue_depth.

-v4
 Changes sdev->queue_ramp_up_period unit to ms when using sysfs i/f
to store or show its value.

e881a172da [SCSI] modify change_queue_depth to take in reason why it is being called
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.

b4a9c7ede9 [SCSI] libfc: fix free of fc_rport_priv with timer pending
Timer crashes were caused by freeing a struct fc_rport_priv
with a timer pending, causing the timer facility list to be
corrupted.  This was during FC uplink flap tests with a lot
of targets.

After discovery, we were doing an PLOGI on an rdata that was
in DELETE state but not yet removed from the lookup list.
This moved the rdata from DELETE state to PLOGI state.
If the PLOGI exchange allocation failed and needed to be
retried, the timer scheduling could race with the free
being done by fc_rport_work().

When fc_rport_login() is called on a rport in DELETE state,
move it to a new state RESTART.  In fc_rport_work, when
handling a LOGO, STOPPED or FAILED event, look for restart
state.  In the RESTART case, don't take the rdata off the
list and after the transport remote port is deleted and
exchanges are reset, re-login to the remote port.

Note that the new RESTART state also corrects a problem we
had when re-discovering a port that had moved to DELETE state.
In that case, a new rdata was created, but the old rdata
would do an exchange manager reset affecting the FC_ID
for both the new rdata and old rdata.  With the new state,
the new port isn't logged into until after any old exchanges
are reset.

65afac7d80 param: fix lots of bugs with writing charp params from sysfs, by leaking mem.
e180a6b775 "param: fix charp parameters set via sysfs" fixed the case
where charp parameters written via sysfs were freed, leaving drivers
accessing random memory.

Unfortunately, storing a flag in the kparam struct was a bad idea: it's
rodata so setting it causes an oops on some archs.  But that's not all:

1) module_param_array() on charp doesn't work reliably, since we use an
   uninitialized temporary struct kernel_param.
2) there's a fundamental race if a module uses this parameter and then
   it's changed: they will still access the old, freed, memory.

The simplest fix (ie. for 2.6.32) is to never free the memory.  This
prevents all these problems, at cost of a memory leak.  In practice, there
are only 18 places where a charp is writable via sysfs, and all are
root-only writable.

3225beaba0 virtio_blk: Revert serial number support
This reverts "Add serial number support for virtio_blk, V4a".

Turns out that virtio_pci, lguest and s/390 all have an 8 bit limit
on virtio config space, so noone could ever use this.

This is coming back later in a cleaner form.

e95646c3ec virtio: let header files include virtio_ids.h
Rusty,

commit 3ca4f5ca73
    virtio: add virtio IDs file
moved all device IDs into a single file. While the change itself is
a very good one, it can break userspace applications. For example
if a userspace tool wanted to get the ID of virtio_net it used to
include virtio_net.h. This does no longer work, since virtio_net.h
does not include virtio_ids.h.
This patch moves all "#include <linux/virtio_ids.h>" from the C
files into the header files, making the header files compatible with
the old ones.

In addition, this patch exports virtio_ids.h to userspace.

019129d595 rcu: Stopgap fix for synchronize_rcu_expedited() for TREE_PREEMPT_RCU
For the short term, map synchronize_rcu_expedited() to
synchronize_rcu() for TREE_PREEMPT_RCU and to
synchronize_sched_expedited() for TREE_RCU.

Longer term, there needs to be a real expedited grace period for
TREE_PREEMPT_RCU, but candidate patches to date are considerably
more complex and intrusive.
