      ocfs2: Add dentry tracking API · 80c05846
      Mark Fasheh authored
      Replace the dentry vote mechanism with a cluster lock which covers a set
      of dentries. This allows us to force d_delete() only on nodes which actually
      care about an unlink.
      
      Every node that does a ->lookup() gets a read only lock on the dentry, until
      an unlink during which the unlinking node, will request an exclusive lock,
      forcing the other nodes who care about that dentry to d_delete() it. The
      effect is that we retain a very lightweight ->d_revalidate(), and at the
      same time get to make large improvements to the average case performance of
      the ocfs2 unlink and rename operations.
      
      This patch adds the higher level API and the dentry manipulation code.

      This patch adds the cluster lock type which OCFS2 can attach to
      dentries.  A small number of fs/ocfs2/dcache.c functions are stubbed
      out so that this change can compile.

      We just need to add a namelen field to the user_lock_res structure, and
      update a few debug prints. Instead of updating all debug prints, I took the
      opportunity to remove a few that are likely unnecessary these days.

      ocfs2: Allow binary names in the DLM · 3384f3df
      Mark Fasheh authored
      The OCFS2 DLM uses strlen() to determine lock name length, which excludes
      the possibility of putting binary values in the name string. Fix this by
      requiring that string length be passed in as a parameter.

      [SPARC64]: Fix sched_clock() wrapping every ~17 seconds. · e17ba8f5
      David S. Miller authored
      Unfortunately, sparc64 doesn't have an easy way to do a "64 X 64 -->
      128" bit multiply like PowerPC and IA64 do.  We were doing a
      "64 X 64 --> 64" bit multiple which causes overflow very quickly with
      a 30-bit quotient shift.
      
      So use a quotientshift count of 10 instead of 30, just like x86 and
      ARM do.
      
      This also fixes the wrapping of printk timestamp values every ~17
      seconds.

      [SCSI] eata_pio cleanup and PCI fix · 1a68d41a
      Alan Cox authored
      This started as a PCI reference fixup but to do that I need to build it,
      to build it I need to fix it and its full of 32bitisms and uglies.
      
      It has been resurrected, I'm not sure if this is a thank you for the
      work on the license stuff or punishment for some unknown misdeed however
      8). I've also fixed a memory scribble in the init code.
      
      One oddity - the changes from HZ * to constants are deliberate. Whoever
      originally wrote the code (or cleaned it up) used HZ for a cycle timing
      loop even though is not HZ related. I've put it back to the counts used
      in the old days when the driver was most used.

      Mark Haverkamp authored
      Received from Mark Salyzyn:
      
      This patch to the driver's documentation adds a few new product entries,
      sorts the entries on OEM lines first for easy searching, followed by
      product id order to make it easier to compare against the open source
      pci list. The driver has 'family match' so is somewhat future proof, no
      code changes are required to recognize the new products.

      Until the system is stabilized, I am suggesting the enclosed
      modification to prevent the driver from tickling the panic. Once sysfs
      and friends are stabilized, the patch may be backed out. We have yet to
      evaluate if we really want to relinquish existing Scsi Devices in any
      case, holding on to them as configuration of arrays comes and goes makes
      some sense as well. As a result, we have opted to pull the lines rather
      than comment them in legacy.

      [SCSI] aacraid: merge rx and rkt code · 76a7f8fd
      Mark Haverkamp authored
      Received from Mark Salyzyn:
      
      The only real difference between the rkt and rx platform modules is the
      offset of the message registers. This patch recognizes this similarity
      and simplifies the driver to reduce it's code footprint and to improve
      maintainability by reducing the code duplication.
      
      Visibly, the 'rkt.c' portion of this patch looks more complicated than
      it really is. View it as retaining the rkt-only specifics of the
      interface.

      Mark Haverkamp authored
      Received from Mark Salyzyn:
      
      I am placing this functionality into an insmod parameter. Normally the physical
      components are exported to sg, and are blocked from showing up in sd.
      
      Note that the pass-through I/O path via the driver through the Firmware to the
      physical disks is not an optimized path, the card is designed for Hardware
      RAID, elevator sorting and caching. This should not be used as a means for
      utilizing the aacraid based controllers as a generic scsi/SATA/SAS controller,
      performance should suck by a few percentage points, any RAID meta-data on the
      drives will confuse the controller about who owns the drives and there is a
      high risk of destroying content in both directions. Unreliable and for
      experimentation or strange controlled circumstances only.
