commit 18c0b82a upstream. This changeset removes all the code that allows the driver to write to the EEPROM and update the recorded error counters and power on hours. These two stats are unused and writing them exposes a timing risk which could leave the EEPROM in a bad state preventing further normal operation of the HCA. Reviewed-by:

commit eb71f8a5 upstream. The tpm_ibmvtpm module is affected by an unaligned access problem. ibmvtpm_crq_get_version failed with rc=-4 during boot when vTPM is enabled in Power partition, which supports both little endian and big endian modes. We added little endian support to fix this problem: 1) added cpu_to_be64 calls to ensure BE data is sent from an LE OS. 2) added be16_to_cpu and be32_to_cpu calls to make sure data received is in LE format on a LE OS.

commit 1a4bcf47 upstream. We have a scenario where after the fsync log replay we can lose file data that had been previously fsync'ed if we added an hard link for our inode and after that we sync'ed the fsync log (for example by fsync'ing some other file or directory). This is because when adding an hard link we updated the inode item in the log tree with an i_size value of 0. At that point the new inode item was in memory only and a subsequent fsync log replay would not make us lose the file data. However if after adding the hard link we sync the log tree to disk, by fsync'ing some other file or directory for example, we ended up losing the file data after log replay, because the inode item in the persisted log tree had an an i_size of zero. This is easy to reproduce, and the following excerpt from my test for xfstests shows this: _scratch_mkfs >> $seqres.full 2>&1 _init_flakey _mount_flakey # Create one file with data and fsync it. # This made the btrfs fsync log persist the data and the inode metadata with # a correct inode->i_size (4096 bytes). $XFS_IO_PROG -f -c "pwrite -S 0xaa -b 4K 0 4K" -c "fsync" \ $SCRATCH_MNT/foo | _filter_xfs_io # Now add one hard link to our file. This made the btrfs code update the fsync # log, in memory only, with an inode metadata having a size of 0. ln $SCRATCH_MNT/foo $SCRATCH_MNT/foo_link # Now force persistence of the fsync log to disk, for example, by fsyncing some # other file. touch $SCRATCH_MNT/bar $XFS_IO_PROG -c "fsync" $SCRATCH_MNT/bar # Before a power loss or crash, we could read the 4Kb of data from our file as # expected. echo "File content before:" od -t x1 $SCRATCH_MNT/foo # Simulate a crash/power loss. _load_flakey_table $FLAKEY_DROP_WRITES _unmount_flakey _load_flakey_table $FLAKEY_ALLOW_WRITES _mount_flakey # After the fsync log replay, because the fsync log had a value of 0 for our # inode's i_size, we couldn't read anymore the 4Kb of data that we previously # wrote and fsync'ed. The size of the file became 0 after the fsync log replay. echo "File content after:" od -t x1 $SCRATCH_MNT/foo Another alternative test, that doesn't need to fsync an inode in the same transaction it was created, is: _scratch_mkfs >> $seqres.full 2>&1 _init_flakey _mount_flakey # Create our test file with some data. $XFS_IO_PROG -f -c "pwrite -S 0xaa -b 8K 0 8K" \ $SCRATCH_MNT/foo | _filter_xfs_io # Make sure the file is durably persisted. sync # Append some data to our file, to increase its size. $XFS_IO_PROG -f -c "pwrite -S 0xcc -b 4K 8K 4K" \ $SCRATCH_MNT/foo | _filter_xfs_io # Fsync the file, so from this point on if a crash/power failure happens, our # new data is guaranteed to be there next time the fs is mounted. $XFS_IO_PROG -c "fsync" $SCRATCH_MNT/foo # Add one hard link to our file. This made btrfs write into the in memory fsync # log a special inode with generation 0 and an i_size of 0 too. Note that this # didn't update the inode in the fsync log on disk. ln $SCRATCH_MNT/foo $SCRATCH_MNT/foo_link # Now make sure the in memory fsync log is durably persisted. # Creating and fsync'ing another file will do it. touch $SCRATCH_MNT/bar $XFS_IO_PROG -c "fsync" $SCRATCH_MNT/bar # As expected, before the crash/power failure, we should be able to read the # 12Kb of file data. echo "File content before:" od -t x1 $SCRATCH_MNT/foo # Simulate a crash/power loss. _load_flakey_table $FLAKEY_DROP_WRITES _unmount_flakey _load_flakey_table $FLAKEY_ALLOW_WRITES _mount_flakey # After mounting the fs again, the fsync log was replayed. # The btrfs fsync log replay code didn't update the i_size of the persisted # inode because the inode item in the log had a special generation with a # value of 0 (and it couldn't know the correct i_size, since that inode item # had a 0 i_size too). This made the last 4Kb of file data inaccessible and # effectively lost. echo "File content after:" od -t x1 $SCRATCH_MNT/foo This isn't a new issue/regression. This problem has been around since the log tree code was added in 2008: Btrfs: Add a write ahead tree log to optimize synchronous operations (commit e02119d5) Test cases for xfstests follow soon.

commit 37527b86 upstream. I created a dm-raid1 device backed by a device that supports DISCARD and another device that does NOT support DISCARD with the following dm configuration: # echo '0 2048 mirror core 1 512 2 /dev/sda 0 /dev/sdb 0' | dmsetup create moo # lsblk -D NAME DISC-ALN DISC-GRAN DISC-MAX DISC-ZERO sda 0 4K 1G 0 `-moo (dm-0) 0 4K 1G 0 sdb 0 0B 0B 0 `-moo (dm-0) 0 4K 1G 0 Notice that the mirror device /dev/mapper/moo advertises DISCARD support even though one of the mirror halves doesn't. If I issue a DISCARD request (via fstrim, mount -o discard, or ioctl BLKDISCARD) through the mirror, kmirrord gets stuck in an infinite loop in do_region() when it tries to issue a DISCARD request to sdb. The problem is that when we call do_region() against sdb, num_sectors is set to zero because q->limits.max_discard_sectors is zero. Therefore, "remaining" never decreases and the loop never terminates. To fix this: before entering the loop, check for the combination of REQ_DISCARD and no discard and return -EOPNOTSUPP to avoid hanging up the mirror device. This bug was found by the unfortunate coincidence of pvmove and a discard operation in the RHEL 6.5 kernel; upstream is also affected. Signed-off-by:

commit f2ed51ac upstream. It may be possible that a device claims discard support but it rejects discards with -EOPNOTSUPP. It happens when using loopback on ext2/ext3 filesystem driven by the ext4 driver. It may also happen if the underlying devices are moved from one disk on another. If discard error happens, we reject the bio with -EOPNOTSUPP, but we do not degrade the array. This patch fixes failed test shell/lvconvert-repair-transient.sh in the lvm2 testsuite if the testsuite is extracted on an ext2 or ext3 filesystem and it is being driven by the ext4 driver.

commit 06f34e1c upstream. We used to calculate page address differently in 2 cases: 1. In virt_to_page(x) we do --->8--- mem_map + (x - CONFIG_LINUX_LINK_BASE) >> PAGE_SHIFT --->8--- 2. In in pte_page(x) we do --->8--- mem_map + (pte_val(x) - PAGE_OFFSET) >> PAGE_SHIFT --->8--- That leads to problems in case PAGE_OFFSET != CONFIG_LINUX_LINK_BASE - different pages will be selected depending on where and how we calculate page address. In particular in the STAR 9000853582 when gdb attempted to read memory of another process it got improper page in get_user_pages() because this is exactly one of the places where we search for a page by pte_page(). The fix is trivial - we need to calculate page address similarly in both cases. Signed-off-by:

commit 9ab3b598 upstream. A race condition starts to be visible in recent mmotm, where a PG_hwpoison flag is set on a migration source page *before* it's back in buddy page poo= l. This is problematic because no page flag is supposed to be set when freeing (see __free_one_page().) So the user-visible effect of this race is that it could trigger the BUG_ON() when soft-offlining is called. The root cause is that we call lru_add_drain_all() to make sure that the page is in buddy, but that doesn't work because this function just schedule= s a work item and doesn't wait its completion. drain_all_pages() does drainin= g directly, so simply dropping lru_add_drain_all() solves this problem.

commit 372549c2 upstream. What we want to check here is whether there is highorder freepage in buddy list of other migratetype in order to steal it without fragmentation. But, current code just checks cc->order which means allocation request order. So, this is wrong. Without this fix, non-movable synchronous compaction below pageblock order would not stopped until compaction is complete, because migratetype of most pageblocks are movable and high order freepage made by compaction is usually on movable type buddy list. There is some report related to this bug. See below link. http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mm/msg81666.html Although the issued system still has load spike comes from compaction, this makes that system completely stable and responsive according to his report. stress-highalloc test in mmtests with non movable order 7 allocation doesn't show any notable difference in allocation success rate, but, it shows more compaction success rate.

commit f161d4b4 upstream. This patch addresses the original PR_APTPL_BUF_LEN = 8k limitiation for write-out of PR APTPL metadata that Martin has recently been running into. It changes core_scsi3_update_and_write_aptpl() to use vzalloc'ed memory instead of kzalloc, and increases the default hardcoded length to 256k. It also adds logic in core_scsi3_update_and_write_aptpl() to double the original length upon core_scsi3_update_aptpl_buf() failure, and retries until the vzalloc'ed buffer is large enough to accommodate the outgoing APTPL metadata.

commit 3fd7b60f upstream. This patch drops legacy active_ts_list usage within iscsi_target_tq.c code. It was originally used to track the active thread sets during iscsi-target shutdown, and is no longer used by modern upstream code. Two people have reported list corruption using traditional iscsi-target and iser-target with the following backtrace, that appears to be related to iscsi_thread_set->ts_list being used across both active_ts_list and inactive_ts_list.

commit 8138a67a upstream. I noticed that "allowed" can easily overflow by falling below 0, because (total_vm / 32) can be larger than "allowed". The problem occurs in OVERCOMMIT_NONE mode. In this case, a huge allocation can success and overcommit the system (despite OVERCOMMIT_NONE mode). All subsequent allocations will fall (system-wide), so system become unusable. The problem was masked out by commit c9b1d098 ("mm: limit growth of 3% hardcoded other user reserve"), but it's easy to reproduce it on older kernels: 1) set overcommit_memory sysctl to 2 2) mmap() large file multiple times (with VM_SHARED flag) 3) try to malloc() large amount of memory It also can be reproduced on newer kernels, but miss-configured sysctl_user_reserve_kbytes is required. Fix this issue by switching to signed arithmetic here. Signed-off-by:

commit 5703b087 upstream. I noticed, that "allowed" can easily overflow by falling below 0, because (total_vm / 32) can be larger than "allowed". The problem occurs in OVERCOMMIT_NONE mode. In this case, a huge allocation can success and overcommit the system (despite OVERCOMMIT_NONE mode). All subsequent allocations will fall (system-wide), so system become unusable. The problem was masked out by commit c9b1d098 ("mm: limit growth of 3% hardcoded other user reserve"), but it's easy to reproduce it on older kernels: 1) set overcommit_memory sysctl to 2 2) mmap() large file multiple times (with VM_SHARED flag) 3) try to malloc() large amount of memory It also can be reproduced on newer kernels, but miss-configured sysctl_user_reserve_kbytes is required. Fix this issue by switching to signed arithmetic here. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: use min_t] Signed-off-by:

commit 99592d59 upstream. When studying page stealing, I noticed some weird looking decisions in try_to_steal_freepages(). The first I assume is a bug (Patch 1), the following two patches were driven by evaluation. Testing was done with stress-highalloc of mmtests, using the mm_page_alloc_extfrag tracepoint and postprocessing to get counts of how often page stealing occurs for individual migratetypes, and what migratetypes are used for fallbacks. Arguably, the worst case of page stealing is when UNMOVABLE allocation steals from MOVABLE pageblock. RECLAIMABLE allocation stealing from MOVABLE allocation is also not ideal, so the goal is to minimize these two cases. The evaluation of v2 wasn't always clear win and Joonsoo questioned the results. Here I used different baseline which includes RFC compaction improvements from [1]. I found that the compaction improvements reduce variability of stress-highalloc, so there's less noise in the data. First, let's look at stress-highalloc configured to do sync compaction, and how these patches reduce page stealing events during the test. First column is after fresh reboot, other two are reiterations of test without reboot. That was all accumulater over 5 re-iterations (so the benchmark was run 5x3 times with 5 fresh restarts).

Here, each patch improves the situation for unmovable events. Reclaimable is improved by patch 1 and then either the same modulo noise, or perhaps sligtly worse - a small price for unmovable improvements, IMHO. The number of movable allocations falling back to other migratetypes is most noisy, but it's reduced to half at Patch 2 nevertheless. These are least critical as compaction can move them around. If we look at success rates, the patches don't affect them, that didn't change.

Configuring the benchmark to allocate like THP page fault (i.e. no sync compaction) gives much noisier results for iterations 2 and 3 after reboot. This is not so surprising given how [1] offers lower improvements in this scenario due to less restarts after deferred compaction which would change compaction pivot.

[1] http://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=142166196321125&w=2 This patch (of 3): When __rmqueue_fallback() is called to allocate a page of order X, it will find a page of order Y >= X of a fallback migratetype, which is different from the desired migratetype. With the help of try_to_steal_freepages(), it may change the migratetype (to the desired one) also of: 1) all currently free pages in the pageblock containing the fallback page 2) the fallback pageblock itself 3) buddy pages created by splitting the fallback page (when Y > X) These decisions take the order Y into account, as well as the desired migratetype, with the goal of preventing multiple fallback allocations that could e.g. distribute UNMOVABLE allocations among multiple pageblocks. Originally, decision for 1) has implied the decision for 3). Commit 47118af0 ("mm: mmzone: MIGRATE_CMA migration type added") changed that (probably unintentionally) so that the buddy pages in case 3) are always changed to the desired migratetype, except for CMA pageblocks. Commit fef903ef ("mm/page_allo.c: restructure free-page stealing code and fix a bug") did some refactoring and added a comment that the case of 3) is intended. Commit 0cbef29a ("mm: __rmqueue_fallback() should respect pageblock type") removed the comment and tried to restore the original behavior where 1) implies 3), but due to the previous refactoring, the result is instead that only 2) implies 3) - and the conditions for 2) are less frequently met than conditions for 1). This may increase fragmentation in situations where the code decides to steal all free pages from the pageblock (case 1)), but then gives back the buddy pages produced by splitting. This patch restores the original intended logic where 1) implies 3). During testing with stress-highalloc from mmtests, this has shown to decrease the number of events where UNMOVABLE and RECLAIMABLE allocations steal from MOVABLE pageblocks, which can lead to permanent fragmentation. In some cases it has increased the number of events when MOVABLE allocations steal from UNMOVABLE or RECLAIMABLE pageblocks, but these are fixable by sync compaction and thus less harmful. Note that evaluation has shown that the behavior introduced by 47118af0 for buddy pages in case 3) is actually even better than the original logic, so the following patch will introduce it properly once again. For stable backports of this patch it makes thus sense to only fix versions containing 0cbef29a. [iamjoonsoo.kim@lge.com: tracepoint fix] Signed-off-by:

commit a8bda28d upstream.

commit 0f792cf9 upstream. When running the test which causes the race as shown in the previous patch, we can hit the BUG "get_page() on refcount 0 page" in hugetlb_fault(). This race happens when pte turns into migration entry just after the first check of is_hugetlb_entry_migration() in hugetlb_fault() passed with false. To fix this, we need to check pte_present() again after huge_ptep_get(). This patch also reorders taking ptl and doing pte_page(), because pte_page() should be done in ptl. Due to this reordering, we need use trylock_page() in page != pagecache_page case to respect locking order. Fixes: 66aebce7 ("hugetlb: fix race condition in hugetlb_fault()") Signed-off-by:

commit e66f17ff upstream. We have a race condition between move_pages() and freeing hugepages, where move_pages() calls follow_page(FOLL_GET) for hugepages internally and tries to get its refcount without preventing concurrent freeing. This race crashes the kernel, so this patch fixes it by moving FOLL_GET code for hugepages into follow_huge_pmd() with taking the page table lock. This patch intentionally removes page==NULL check after pte_page. This is justified because pte_page() never returns NULL for any architectures or configurations. This patch changes the behavior of follow_huge_pmd() for tail pages and then tail pages can be pinned/returned. So the caller must be changed to properly handle the returned tail pages. We could have a choice to add the similar locking to follow_huge_(addr|pud) for consistency, but it's not necessary because currently these functions don't support FOLL_GET flag, so let's leave it for future development. Here is the reproducer: $ cat movepages.c #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <numaif.h> #define ADDR_INPUT 0x700000000000UL #define HPS 0x200000 #define PS 0x1000 int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { int i; int nr_hp = strtol(argv[1], NULL, 0); int nr_p = nr_hp * HPS / PS; int ret; void **addrs; int *status; int *nodes; pid_t pid; pid = strtol(argv[2], NULL, 0); addrs = malloc(sizeof(char *) * nr_p + 1); status = malloc(sizeof(char *) * nr_p + 1); nodes = malloc(sizeof(char *) * nr_p + 1); while (1) { for (i = 0; i < nr_p; i++) { addrs[i] = (void *)ADDR_INPUT + i * PS; nodes[i] = 1; status[i] = 0; } ret = numa_move_pages(pid, nr_p, addrs, nodes, status, MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL); if (ret == -1) err("move_pages"); for (i = 0; i < nr_p; i++) { addrs[i] = (void *)ADDR_INPUT + i * PS; nodes[i] = 0; status[i] = 0; } ret = numa_move_pages(pid, nr_p, addrs, nodes, status, MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL); if (ret == -1) err("move_pages"); } return 0; } $ cat hugepage.c #include <stdio.h> #include <sys/mman.h> #include <string.h> #define ADDR_INPUT 0x700000000000UL #define HPS 0x200000 int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { int nr_hp = strtol(argv[1], NULL, 0); char *p; while (1) { p = mmap((void *)ADDR_INPUT, nr_hp * HPS, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_HUGETLB, -1, 0); if (p != (void *)ADDR_INPUT) { perror("mmap"); break; } memset(p, 0, nr_hp * HPS); munmap(p, nr_hp * HPS); } } $ sysctl vm.nr_hugepages=40 $ ./hugepage 10 & $ ./movepages 10 $(pgrep -f hugepage) Fixes: e632a938 ("mm: migrate: add hugepage migration code to move_pages()") Signed-off-by:

commit cbef8478 upstream. Migrating hugepages and hwpoisoned hugepages are considered as non-present hugepages, and they are referenced via migration entries and hwpoison entries in their page table slots. This behavior causes race condition because pmd_huge() doesn't tell non-huge pages from migrating/hwpoisoned hugepages. follow_page_mask() is one example where the kernel would call follow_page_pte() for such hugepage while this function is supposed to handle only normal pages. To avoid this, this patch makes pmd_huge() return true when pmd_none() is true *and* pmd_present() is false. We don't have to worry about mixing up non-present pmd entry with normal pmd (pointing to leaf level pte entry) because pmd_present() is true in normal pmd. The same race condition could happen in (x86-specific) gup_pmd_range(), where this patch simply adds pmd_present() check instead of pmd_huge(). This is because gup_pmd_range() is fast path. If we have non-present hugepage in this function, we will go into gup_huge_pmd(), then return 0 at flag mask check, and finally fall back to the slow path.

commit d4d4eda2 upstream. On Dell Latitude C600 laptop with Pentium 3 850MHz processor, the speedstep-smi driver sometimes loads and sometimes doesn't load with "change to state X failed" message. The hardware sometimes refuses to change frequency and in this case, we need to retry later. I found out that we need to enable interrupts while waiting. When we enable interrupts, the hardware blockage that prevents frequency transition resolves and the transition is possible. With disabled interrupts, the blockage doesn't resolve (no matter how long do we wait). The exact reasons for this hardware behavior are unknown. This patch enables interrupts in the function speedstep_set_state that can be called with disabled interrupts. However, this function is called with disabled interrupts only from speedstep_get_freqs, so it shouldn't cause any problem. Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com Acked-by:

commit 564e559f upstream. If the allocation of bt->bs fails, then bt->map can be freed twice, once in blk_mq_init_bitmap_tags() -> bt_alloc(), and once in blk_mq_init_bitmap_tags() -> bt_free(). Fix by setting the pointer to NULL after the first free. Signed-off-by:

commit 1e0d6714 upstream. When an application connects to the ring buffer via splice, it can only read full pages. Splice does not work with partial pages. If there is not enough data to fill a page, the splice command will either block or return -EAGAIN (if set to nonblock). Code was added where if the page is not full, to just sleep again. The problem is, it will get woken up again on the next event. That is, when something is written into the ring buffer, if there is a waiter it will wake it up. The waiter would then check the buffer, see that it still does not have enough data to fill a page and go back to sleep. To make matters worse, when the waiter goes back to sleep, it could cause another event, which would wake it back up again to see it doesn't have enough data and sleep again. This produces a tremendous overhead and fills the ring buffer with noise. For example, recording sched_switch on an idle system for 10 seconds produces 25,350,475 events!!! Create another wait queue for those waiters wanting full pages. When an event is written, it only wakes up waiters if there's a full page of data. It does not wake up the waiter if the page is not yet full. After this change, recording sched_switch on an idle system for 10 seconds produces only 800 events. Getting rid of 25,349,675 useless events (99.9969% of events!!), is something to take seriously.

commit 6ee8e25f upstream. Commit e9fd702a ("audit: convert audit watches to use fsnotify instead of inotify") broke handling of renames in audit. Audit code wants to update inode number of an inode corresponding to watched name in a directory. When something gets renamed into a directory to a watched name, inotify previously passed moved inode to audit code however new fsnotify code passes directory inode where the change happened. That confuses audit and it starts watching parent directory instead of a file in a directory. This can be observed for example by doing: cd /tmp touch foo bar auditctl -w /tmp/foo touch foo mv bar foo touch foo In audit log we see events like: type=CONFIG_CHANGE msg=audit(1423563584.155:90): auid=1000 ses=2 op="updated rules" path="/tmp/foo" key=(null) list=4 res=1 ... type=PATH msg=audit(1423563584.155:91): item=2 name="bar" inode=1046884 dev=08:0 2 mode=0100644 ouid=0 ogid=0 rdev=00:00 nametype=DELETE type=PATH msg=audit(1423563584.155:91): item=3 name="foo" inode=1046842 dev=08:0 2 mode=0100644 ouid=0 ogid=0 rdev=00:00 nametype=DELETE type=PATH msg=audit(1423563584.155:91): item=4 name="foo" inode=1046884 dev=08:0 2 mode=0100644 ouid=0 ogid=0 rdev=00:00 nametype=CREATE ... and that's it - we see event for the first touch after creating the audit rule, we see events for rename but we don't see any event for the last touch. However we start seeing events for unrelated stuff happening in /tmp. Fix the problem by passing moved inode as data in the FS_MOVED_FROM and FS_MOVED_TO events instead of the directory where the change happens. This doesn't introduce any new problems because noone besides audit_watch.c cares about the passed value: fs/notify/fanotify/fanotify.c cares only about FSNOTIFY_EVENT_PATH events. fs/notify/dnotify/dnotify.c doesn't care about passed 'data' value at all. fs/notify/inotify/inotify_fsnotify.c uses 'data' only for FSNOTIFY_EVENT_PATH. kernel/audit_tree.c doesn't care about passed 'data' at all. kernel/audit_watch.c expects moved inode as 'data'.

commit 7215853e upstream. Commit 6edb2a8a introduced an array map_pages that contains the addresses returned by kmap_atomic. However, when unmapping those pages, map_pages[0] is unmapped before map_pages[1], breaking the nesting requirement as specified in the documentation for kmap_atomic/kunmap_atomic. This was caught by the highmem debug code present in kunmap_atomic. Fix the loop to do the unmapping properly.

commit 69abaffe upstream. Cfq_lookup_create_cfqg() allocates struct blkcg_gq using GFP_ATOMIC. In cfq_find_alloc_queue() possible allocation failure is not handled. As a result kernel oopses on NULL pointer dereference when cfq_link_cfqq_cfqg() calls cfqg_get() for NULL pointer. Bug was introduced in v3.5 in commit cd1604fa ("blkcg: factor out blkio_group creation"). Prior to that commit cfq group lookup had returned pointer to root group as fallback. This patch handles this error using existing fallback oom_cfqq. Signed-off-by:

commit d180d2bb upstream. As per the specififcation, the SB_DevFn is the PCI_DEVFN of the target device and not the source. So PCI_DEVFN(2,0) is not correct. Further the port ID should be enough to identify devices unless they are MFD. The SB_DevFn was intended to remove ambiguity in case of these MFD devices. For non MFD devices the recommendation for the target device IP was to ignore these fields, but not all of them followed the recommendation. Some like CCK ignore these fields and hence PCI_DEVFN(2, 0) works and so does PCI_DEVFN(0, 0) as it works for DPIO. The issue came to light because of GPIONC which was not getting programmed correctly with PCI_DEVFN(2, 0). It turned out that this did not follow the recommendation and expected 0 in this field. In general the recommendation is to use SB_DevFn as PCI_DEVFN(0, 0) for all devices except target PCI devices. Signed-off-by:
