This patch addresses a problem in both sd.c and sr.c. When a read/write command is initialized, the routines may reduce this_count (the number of sectors to transfer) if it exceeds the maximum allowed value (i.e., 0xffff for READ(10)). However, the code does not similarly alter scmd->request_bufflen and scmd->bufflen to match the change in the CDB value. scmd->request_bufflen is important for the usb-storage driver, which requires that it be exactly equal to the number of bytes transferred. scmd->bufflen is used in the rw_intr() routines, where it is passed to scsi_io_completion() as the number of sectors transferred if no errors occur. Another small change in the patch concerns the code in sr.c that checks whether the total of the scatter-gather area lengths matches scmd->request_bufflen. If they don't match, the patch bumps the kernel log message level up to KERN_ERR, and it takes the more conservative approach of adjusting scmd->request_bufflen only if the s-g length is smaller than the request length.

This patch has no code changes. It is just a resync of all the version numbers with the 6.10 driver and bumping up the driver version number.

From: David Jeffery <david_jeffery@adaptec.com> (with minor reject fixes) This patch removes several places where we were using kmalloc flag tricks to always get memory <4GB instead of using the proper dma_alloc_consistent() API. It also no longer #errors on when compiled for x86-64 kernels.

From: David Jeffery <david_jeffery@adaptec.com> (with minor fixes for rejects) This patch is a resync with the 6.10 driver for 2.4 and updates the 2.4 compatability code. It adds a new wrapper function for differences between the 2.4 and 2.6 scsi proc interface, forces pci posting in 3 places, corrects using a meaningless constant of 0x80 to 0, and syncs comments that had changed.

From: David Jeffery <david_jeffery@adaptec.com> (with fix ups for rejections on CONFIG_HIGHIO) This patch has no code changes. It is only the result of running scripts/Lindent on drivers/scsi/ips.c in test3. Rather than use this patch, it may be advisable to just run sh scripts/Lindent drivers/scsi/ips.c The nasty 3-4 space indenting in ips.c has always made it a pain to read. The remaining patches in this patch set all assume ips.c has been lindented.

In sym_attach we call sym_hcb_attach. If it fails we call sym_free_resources which will call sym_hcb_free. Unfortunately sym_hcb_attach also calls sym_hcb_free on failure. This results in a bunch of things being freed twice and it looks like the sym2 memory allocator adds them to the freelist twice. Sometime later on we allocate the memory twice, with weird consequences.

One problem we found when we hit a bad adapter, we need to use scsi_host_put.

From: Andries Brouwer <aebr@win.tue.nl> I see an Oops in the SCSI code, caused by the fact that sdkp is NULL in sd_shutdown. "How can that be?", you will ask - dev->driver_data was set in sd_probe. But in my case sd_probe never finished. An insmod usb-storage hangs forever, or at least for more than six hours, giving ample opportunity to observe this race between sd_probe and sd_shutdown. (Of course sd_probe hangs in sd_revalidate disk.) Perhaps the obvious test is a good idea. Locking seems meaningless - sd_probe will never finish.

This patch against scsi-misc-2.5 adds a sysfs attribute to allow scanning (or rescanning) and deletion of scsi_devices. It also allows scanning of entire hosts, channels, or targets. It adds a per-host scan attribute, and a per scsi_device delete attribute.

This was in scsi_sysfs.c previously but given that it's not sysfs-related and the whole scsi code is built around the driver model now it's better to have it where it belongs. Also allows us to reduce the scsi_mod-wide globals.

DEV_STALE_* is used for some crude hacks in pcmcia netdrivers and it seems people copied it blindly over to the scsi ones also it couldn't ever be triggered (dev_link_t.open is never incremented e.g.)

From: Jes Sorensen <jes@wildopensource.com> with minor compile and rejection fixes This patch might make the qla1280 driver build again in Linus' bk tree. I don't have those sources here so I made the changes relative to 2.6.0-test2 and I am out of space on my laptop Only compile tested, but if it works it works ;-)

CLONE_THREAD without CLONE_DETACHED will now return -EINVAL, and for a while we will warn about anything that uses it (there are no known users, but this will help pinpoint any problems if somebody used to care about the invalid combination).

A part of the 64 bit kdev_t patch already got merged, and it changes the format of /sys/block/<dev>/dev from %02x%02x to %u:%u. The partition could must also be changed. e.g. cat /sys/block/hda/hda5/dev should return 3:5 instead of 0305

Add 32bit->64bit conversion functions for POSIX timers. I kept timer_create architecture specific, because it does signal specific stuff which is not portable enough for generic compat.

This patch allows modules to work for ARM, and is the one thing which prevents the standard tree from building for any ARM machine. After reviewing the /proc/kcore and kclist issues, I've decided that I'm no longer prepared to even _think_ about supporting /proc/kcore on ARM - it just gets too ugly, and adds too much code to make it worth the effort, the time or the energy to implement a solution to that problem. /proc/kcore should probably go away, but in the meantime this just allows ARM to ignore the issues.

HDIO_GETGEO_BIG_RAW is an ide specific hack introduced in 2.3.99-pre3. There are no known programs using this ioctl. Its aim was to provide current CHS translation to the user-space, but very often it provides what driver thinks is a current translation (drive with LBA have to support only one physical translation, also drive may not support chosen translation and there is no return value check). hdparm -I can be used instead, it provides correct information (and bogus data is still accessible through /proc/ide/hdX/geometry).

The help for CONFIG_DEVPTS_FS claims that devfs "is a more general facility". But that apparently hasn't been true since 2.5.68. This patch removes that claim, and adds a warning to the DEVFS_FS help.
