2011-08-05mlx4: decreasing ref count when removing macYevgeny Petrilin1-3/+6
For older FW versions, when a Mac address removed from Mac table, we should set 0 for reference count for the corresponding Mac index. Fixes a bug where removing Mac from the table still left that entry as invalid.

2011-08-04eisa/pci_eisa.c: fix BUG introduced by 005bdad7b80Arnaud Lacombe1-2/+2
While `pci_eisa_driver' still refer `pci_eisa_init', the .probe() function should not be called after init memory release, as pointed out by commit 74b9a297. The structure is still referenced in the drivers subsystem, and can be accesseed through sysfs, so the modpost warning is a false positive. Mark it as such. In the same time, the warning referenced in 005bdad7b80 did only mention `pci_eisa_driver', not `pci_eisa_pci_tbl', so remove its marking.

2011-08-04intel drivers: repair missing flush operationsJesse Brandeburg18-0/+59
after review of all intel drivers, found several instances where drivers had the incorrect pattern of: memory mapped write(); delay(); which should always be: memory mapped write(); write flush(); /* aka memory mapped read */ delay(); explanation: The reason for including the flush is that writes can be held (posted) in PCI/PCIe bridges, but the read always has to complete synchronously and therefore has to flush all pending writes to a device. If a write is held and followed by a delay, the delay means nothing because the write may not have reached hardware (maybe even not until the next read) Signed-off-by: Jesse Brandeburg <jesse.brandeburg@intel.com> Tested-by: Aaron Brown <aaron.f.brown@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com>

2011-08-03ACPI, APEI, GHES, Error records content based throttleHuang Ying1-7/+177
printk is used by GHES to report hardware errors. Ratelimit is enforced on the printk to avoid too many hardware error reports in kernel log. Because there may be thousands or even millions of corrected hardware errors during system running. Currently, a simple scheme is used. That is, the total number of hardware error reporting is ratelimited. This may cause some issues in practice. For example, there are two kinds of hardware errors occurred in system. One is corrected memory error, because the fault memory address is accessed frequently, there may be hundreds error report per-second. The other is corrected PCIe AER error, it will be reported once per-second. Because they share one ratelimit control structure, it is highly possible that only memory error is reported. To avoid the above issue, an error record content based throttle algorithm is implemented in the patch. Where after the first successful reporting, all error records that are same are throttled for some time, to let other kinds of error records have the opportunity to be reported. In above example, the memory errors will be throttled for some time, after being printked. Then the PCIe AER error will be printked successfully.

2011-08-03ACPI, APEI, GHES, printk support for recoverable error via NMIHuang Ying2-18/+193
Some APEI GHES recoverable errors are reported via NMI, but printk is not safe in NMI context. To solve the issue, a lock-less memory allocator is used to allocate memory in NMI handler, save the error record into the allocated memory, put the error record into a lock-less list. On the other hand, an irq_work is used to delay the operation from NMI context to IRQ context. The irq_work IRQ handler will remove nodes from lock-less list, printk the error record and do some further processing include recovery operation, then free the memory.

2011-08-03[S390] qdio: Use kstrtoul_from_userPeter Huewe1-9/+3
This patch replaces the code for getting an unsigned long from a userspace buffer by a simple call to kstroul_from_user. This makes it easier to read and less error prone.

2011-08-03[S390] dasd: check if raw track access is supportedStefan Haberland1-0/+9
To use raw track access some special storage server commands are needed. Older storage hardware may not support these commands. So check if raw track access is possible while setting the DASD online.

2011-08-03[S390] dasd: use vmalloc for statistics input bufferStefan Weinhuber2-6/+7
The size of the buffer that is used to store DASD statistics input strings depends on the user input. If the input string is to large, the write operation could fail with -ENOMEM. To avoid this, use vmalloc instead of kmalloc. Signed-off-by: Stefan Weinhuber <wein@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com>
2011-08-03[S390] qdio: 2nd stage retry on SIGA-W busy conditionsJan Glauber2-3/+20
The SIGA-W may return with the busy bit set which means the device was blocked. The busy loop which retries the SIGA-W for 100us may not be long enough when running under a heavily loaded hypervisor. Extend the retry mechanism by adding a longer second stage which retries the SIGA-W for up to 10s. In difference to the first retry loop the second stage is using mdelay to stop the cpu between the retries and thereby avoid additional preassure in on the hypervisor. If the second stage retry is successfull a device reset is avoided. Signed-off-by: Jan Glauber <jang@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com>
