It needs s/malloc.h/slab.h/ . It also forgets to free some memory on an error exit patch. Patch for 2.5.39 follows.

Here are the scatterlist primitives there's been mail about before. Now the code has passed basic sanity testing, and is ready to merge into Linus' tree to start getting wider use. Greg, please merge! To recap, the routines are a utility layer packaging several usb core facilities to improve system performance. It's synchronous. The code uses functionality that drivers could use already, but generally haven't: - Request queueing. This is a big performance win. It lets device drivers help the hcds avoid wasted i/o bandwidth, by eliminating irq and scheduling latencies between requests. It can make a huge difference at high speed, when the latencies often exceed the time to handle each i/o request! - The new usb_map_sg() primitives, leveraging IOMMU hardware if it's there (better than entry-at-a-time mapping). - URB_NO_INTERRUPT transfer flag, a hint to hcds that they can avoid a 'success irq' for this urb. Only the urb for the last scatterlist entry really needs an IRQ, the others can be eliminated or delayed. (OHCI uses this today, and any HCD can safely ignore it.) The particular functionality in these APIs seemed to meet Matt's requirements for usb-storage, so I'd hope the 2.5 usb-storage code will start to use these routines in a while. (And maybe those two scanner drivers: hpusbscsi, microtek.) Brief summary of testing: this code seems correct for normal reads and writes, but the fault paths (including cancelation) haven't been tested yet. Both EHCI and OHCI seem to be mostly OK with these more aggressive queued loads, but may need small updates (like the two I sent yesterday). Unfortunately I have to report that UHCI and urb queueing will sometimes lock up my hardware (PIIX4), so while we're lots better than 2.4 this is still a bit of a trouble spot for now. I'll be making some testing software available shortly, which will help track down remaining HCD level problems by giving the queuing APIs (and some others!) a more strenuous workout than most drivers will, in their day-to-day usage. - Dave

Greg, attached is a patch designed for diagnostic purposes. Please apply to the 2.5 tree -- yes, we'll be removing this at some point in the future. It appears that we have a problem clearing halts. This patch causes a very clear message to be printed whenever a usb_stor_clear_halt() manages to work. So far, I haven't seen such a thing happen. And I've seen _lots_ of STALL conditions. This problem has likely been around for a while... however, it hasn't been noticed before because usb-storage was difficult to use because of other bugs. Heck, the most recent 'bk pull' is the first one for me in _months_ which let me boot all the way into X11. I'm going to hold my patch queue until this is resolved. On my test setup, it's easy to see this failing. I've tried with 4 different devices, with both UHCI and EHCI drivers. I don't want to confuse this problem with other patches... 'result' in this function always seems to be -32. Which is odd, because control endpoints shouldn't do that. I'm open to suggestions as to where to look for this bug, but my instincts are telling me that this is a core or HCD issue, not a usb-storage issue. On a positive note, this means that the error-recovery system gets a good workout.

We must clear down all currently pending IRQs before servicing any IRQ on the chip. This prevents immediate recursion into the interrupt handling paths when we service the first IRQ.

This didn't follow the LDM model correctly. The SA1111 is always a device on the root bus.

This cset updates the SA1111 core, PCMCIA, OHCI and keyboard drivers, allowing them to take advantage of the Linux device manager code; this implements initial suspend/resume support for the SA1111 in the core. Many existing drivers currently rely on the old PM-based interface for suspend/resume support.

In a test where some memory corruption happened, I noticed an oops (null pointer exception in_irq) that's avoidable. Here's a patch that avoids it ... anyone seeing the err() is likely to hang some process, but that's better than the alternative. (Also inlines some used-once routines, saving a bit of space to make up for the new diagnostic.)

In doing some more extensive testing of the urb queueing behavior, I noticed that (a) IOC wasn't always being set for each urb, while for now it needs to be set; (b) a qh patchup wasn't done quite where it should be. This resolves those two issues, as well as making it a bit less noisy to unlink lots of urbs at the once.

This has minor usbcore cleanups: DOC: - the changes passing a usb_interface to driver probe() and disconnect() weren't reflected in their adjacent docs. likewise they still said it was possible to get a null usb_device_id (no more). - the (root) hub API restrictions from rmk's ARM patch weren't flagged - mention the non-dma-coherent cache issue for usb_buffer_alloc() - mention disconnect() cleanup issue with usb_{control,bulk}_msg() [ you can't cancel those urbs from disconnect() ] CODE - make driver ioctl() use 'usb_interface' too ... this update also resolves an old 'one instance per device' bad assumption - module locking on driver->ioctl() was goofy, kept BKL way too long and didn't try_inc_mod_count() like the rest of usbcore - hcd unlink code treated iso inappropriately like interrupt; only interrupt still wants that automagic mode - move iso init out of ohci into shared submit_urb logic - remove interrupt transfer length restriction; hcds that don't handle packetization (just like bulk :) should be updated, but device drivers won't care for now.

In two drivers a wrong size of memory was allocated for cpufreq_driver: as it must include NR_CPUS times a struct cpufreq_policy (and not struct cpufreq_freqs). Thanks to Petr Vandrovec for this patch.

QDIO_BH was never actually used anyway, and won't do much good now BHs are gone.

Beginning of proper refcounting. New helpers introduced, several drivers switched to using them for dynamic allocation of gendisks. Once everything is switched (and that will be way easier than per-drive gendisks series) we will be able to add sane reference counts on gendisk, at which point we can safely put pointer to gendisk in struct block_device / struct request and we had pretty much won - from that point it's pretty straightforward crapectomy in drivers.

char *major_name replaced with char disk_name[16]; All uses of ->major_name replaced with those of ->disk_name and (obviously) simplified big way. Bunch of arrays, kmallocs, etc. is gone.

Cleans the handling of partitioning up. More or less the same story as with other drivers...

corrected handling of sizes. Ugh.

get_gendisk() now takes dev_t (instead of kdev_t) and gets an additional argument - int *part. Set to 0 for non-partitioned, partition number for partititoned. Callers updated. Yes, I hate passing return values that way ;-/ We need that since old "minor(dev) - disk->first_minor" doesn't work for stuff with non-trivial numbers (e.g. floppy) and get_gendisk() really has to return both gendisk and partition number. Fortunately, amount of callers of gendisk() is about to drop RSN big way...

The list used to generate /proc/partitions turned into list_head one; we also restore the old order of elements (originally we added to the end of list; recent changes had reverted that, now we are back to original order).
