* Don't set IDE_HFLAG_NO_AUTOTUNE host flag in sgiioc4 and icside host drivers - there is no need for it as they don't implement ->set_pio_mode method. * Remove no longer needed IDE_HFLAG_NO_AUTOTUNE host flag. There should be no functional changes caused by this patch. Acked-by: Sergei Shtylyov <sshtylyov@ru.mvista.com> Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@gmail.com>

The driver is using now solely its own request queue. - tape->next_stage is always NULL so it is safe to remove all code depending on tape->next_stage != NULL - this patch removes the last place which sets IDETAPE_FLAG_PIPELINE_ACTIVE in tape->flags [bart: add above explanations] Signed-off-by: Borislav Petkov <petkovbb@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@gmail.com>

Since we don't do pipeline read-ahead anymore, we don't have to look for filemarks we have crossed. Therefore, remove the code chunk that does that and pass on the command to the tape.

In order to do away with queueing read requests on the pipeline, several things have to be done: 1. Do not allocate additional pipeline stages in idetape_init_read() until (tape->nr_stages < max_stages) and do only read operation preparations. As a collateral result, idetape_add_stage_tail() becomes unused so remove it. 2. Queue the read request's buffer directly thru idetape_queue_rw_tail(). 3. Remove now unused idetape_kmalloc_stage() and idetape_switch_buffers().

Pipeline handling calculations in idetape_calculate_speeds() can go since they do not have any effect on other functionality besides: 1. info is only being exported through /proc as a read-only item (controlled_pipeline_head_speed, uncontrolled_pipeline_head_speed) 2. used in idetape_restart_speed_control() which, in turn, is unrelated to other code 3. used only for pipeline frames number accounting (tape->pipeline_head), also unused elsewhere. 4.some variables are: only written to: tape->buffer_head; unused: tape->tape_head, tape->last_tape_head Signed-off-by: Borislav Petkov <petkovbb@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@gmail.com>

Add "ignore_cable" parameter: * "ide_core.ignore_cable=[interface_number]" boot option if IDE is built-in (i.e. "ide_core.ignore_cable=1" to force ignoring cable for "ide1") * "ignore_cable=[interface_number]" module parameter (for ide_core module) if IDE is compiled as module v2: * Add ide_port_apply_params() helper - use it in ide_device_add_all() and ide_scan_port(). * Make it possible to later disable ignoring cable detection by passing "[interface_number]:0" to /sys/module/ide_core/parameters/ignore_cable (however sysfs interface is not enabled yet since it needs some other IDE changes to make it work reliable).

typical case: four sockets system, every node has 4g ram, and we are using: memmap=10g$4g to mask out memory on node1 and node2 when numa is enabled, early_node_mem is used to get node_data and node_bootmap. if it can not get memory from the same node with find_e820_area(), it will use alloc_bootmem to get buff from previous nodes. so check it and print out some info about it. need to move early_res_to_bootmem into every setup_node_bootmem. and it takes range that node has. otherwise alloc_bootmem could return addr that reserved early. depends on "mm: make reserve_bootmem can crossed the nodes".

"mm: make reserve_bootmem can crossed the nodes" provides new reserve_bootmem(), let reserve_bootmem_generic() use that. reserve_bootmem_generic() is used to reserve initramdisk, so this way we can make sure even when bootloader or kexec load ranges cross the node memory boundaries, reserve_bootmem still works.

split reserve_bootmem_core() into two functions, one which checks conflicts, and one which sets the bits. and make reserve_bootmem to loop bdata_list to cross the nodes. user could be crashkernel and ramdisk..., in case the range provided by those externalities crosses the nodes.

Make the nodes other than node 0 use bdata->last_success for fast search too. We need to use __alloc_bootmem_core() for vmemmap allocation for other nodes when numa and sparsemem/vmemmap are enabled. Also, make fail_block path increase i with incr only after ALIGN to avoid extra increase when size is larger than align.

vmemmap allocation currently has this layout: [ffffe20000000000-ffffe200001fffff] PMD ->ffff810001400000 on node 0 [ffffe20000200000-ffffe200003fffff] PMD ->ffff810001800000 on node 0 [ffffe20000400000-ffffe200005fffff] PMD ->ffff810001c00000 on node 0 [ffffe20000600000-ffffe200007fffff] PMD ->ffff810002000000 on node 0 [ffffe20000800000-ffffe200009fffff] PMD ->ffff810002400000 on node 0 ... note that there is a 2M hole between them - not optimal. the root cause is that usemap (24 bytes) will be allocated after every 2M mem_map, and it will push next vmemmap (2M) to the next (2M) alignment. solution: try to allocate the mem_map continously. after the patch, we get: [ffffe20000000000-ffffe200001fffff] PMD ->ffff810001400000 on node 0 [ffffe20000200000-ffffe200003fffff] PMD ->ffff810001600000 on node 0 [ffffe20000400000-ffffe200005fffff] PMD ->ffff810001800000 on node 0 [ffffe20000600000-ffffe200007fffff] PMD ->ffff810001a00000 on node 0 [ffffe20000800000-ffffe200009fffff] PMD ->ffff810001c00000 on node 0 ... which is the ideal layout. and usemap will share a page because of they are allocated continuously too: sparse_early_usemap_alloc: usemap = ffff810024e00000 size = 24 sparse_early_usemap_alloc: usemap = ffff810024e00080 size = 24 sparse_early_usemap_alloc: usemap = ffff810024e00100 size = 24 sparse_early_usemap_alloc: usemap = ffff810024e00180 size = 24 ... so we make the bootmem allocation more compact and use less memory for usemap => mission accomplished ;-) Signed-off-by: Yinghai Lu <yhlu.kernel@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
