Reimplement ata_acpi_cbl_80wire() using ata_acpi_gtm_xfermask() and
while at it relocate the function below ata_acpi_gtm_xfermask().
New ata_acpi_cbl_80wire() implementation takes @gtm, in both pata_via
and pata_amd, use the initial GTM value. Both are trying to peek
initial BIOS configuration, so using initial caching value makes
sense. This fixes ACPI part of cable detection in pata_amd which
previously always returned 0 because configuring PIO0 during reset
clears DMA configuration.

ATA_CBL_PATA_UNK indicates that the cable type can't be determined
from the host side and might be either 80c or 40c. libata applies
drive or other generic limit in this case. However, there are
controllers where both host and drive side detections are
misimplemented and the driver has to rely solely on private method -
peeking BIOS or ACPI configuration or using some other private
mechanism.
This patch adds ATA_CBL_PATA_IGN which tells libata to ignore the
cable type completely and just let the LLD determine the transfer mode
via host transfer mode masks and ->mode_filter().

Historically word 48 in the identify data was used to mean 32bit I/O
was supported for VLB IDE etc. ATA8 reassigns this word to the Trusted
Computing Group, where it is used for TCG features. This means that
an ATA8 TCG drive is going to trigger 32bit I/O on some systems which
will be funny.
Anyway we need to sort this out ready for ATA8 so:
- Reorder the ata.h header a bit so the ata_version function occurs early
in it
- Make dword_io check the ATA version
- Add an ATA8 version checking TCG presence test
While we are at it the current drafts have a flaw where it may not be
possible to disable TCG features at boot (and opt out of the trusted
model) as TCG intends because it relies on presence of a different
optional feature (DCS). Handle this in software by refusing the TCG
commands if libata.allow_tpm is not set. (We must make it possible
as some environments such as proprietary VDR devices will doubtless
want to use it to lock up content)
Finally as with CPRM print a warning so that the user knows they may
not be able to full access and use the device.

Dave Young reported warnings from lockdep that the workqueue API
can sometimes try to register lockdep classes with the same key
but different names. This is not permitted in lockdep.
Unfortunately, I was unaware of that restriction when I wrote
the code to debug workqueue problems with lockdep and used the
workqueue name as the lockdep class name. This can obviously
lead to the problem if the workqueue name is dynamic.
This patch solves the problem by always using a constant name
for the workqueue's lockdep class, namely either the constant
name that was passed in or a string consisting of the variable
name.

The purpose of this is to allow stacked alignment settings, with the
ultimate queue alignment being set to the largest alignment requirement
in the stack.
The reason for this is so that the SCSI mid-layer can relax the default
alignment requirements (which are basically causing a lot of superfluous
copying to go on in the SG_IO interface) while allowing transports,
devices or HBAs to add stricter limits if they need them.

ACPI and APM used "pm_active" to guarantee that
they would not be simultaneously active.
But pm_active was recently moved under CONFIG_PM_LEGACY,
so that without CONFIG_PM_LEGACY, pm_active became a NOP --
allowing ACPI and APM to both be simultaneously enabled.
This caused unpredictable results, including boot hangs.
Further, the code under CONFIG_PM_LEGACY is scheduled
for removal.
So replace pm_active with pm_flags.
pm_flags depends only on CONFIG_PM,
which is present for both CONFIG_APM and CONFIG_ACPI.

This patch adds the underlying givcrypt operations for aead and associated
support elements. The rationale is identical to that of the skcipher
givcrypt operations, i.e., sometimes only the algorithm knows how the
IV should be generated.
A new request type aead_givcrypt_request is added which contains an
embedded aead_request structure with two new elements to support this
operation. The new elements are seq and giv. The seq field should
contain a strictly increasing 64-bit integer which may be used by
certain IV generators as an input value. The giv field will be used
to store the generated IV. It does not need to obey the alignment
requirements of the algorithm because it's not used during the operation.
The existing iv field must still be available as it will be used to store
intermediate IVs and the output IV if chaining is desired.

This patch makes crypto_alloc_ablkcipher/crypto_grab_skcipher always

For algorithms that do not set the geniv field, the blkcipher layer will

eseqiv for asynchronous algorithms. Note that if these wrappers do not
work on an algorithm then that algorithm must specify its own geniv or
it can't be used at all.

Different block cipher modes have different requirements for intialisation
vectors. For example, CBC can use a simple randomly generated IV while
modes such as CTR must use an IV generation mechanisms that give a stronger
guarantee on the lack of collisions. Furthermore, disk encryption modes
have their own IV generation algorithms.
Up until now IV generation has been left to the users of the symmetric
key cipher API. This is inconvenient as the number of block cipher modes
increase because the user needs to be aware of which mode is supposed to
be paired with which IV generation algorithm.
Therefore it makes sense to integrate the IV generation into the crypto
API. This patch takes the first step in that direction by creating two
new ablkcipher operations, givencrypt and givdecrypt that generates an
IV before performing the actual encryption or decryption.
The operations are currently not exposed to the user. That will be done
once the underlying functionality has actually been implemented.
It also creates the underlying givcipher type. Algorithms that directly
generate IVs would use it instead of ablkcipher. All other algorithms
(including all existing ones) would generate a givcipher algorithm upon
registration. This givcipher algorithm will be constructed from the geniv
string that's stored in every algorithm. That string will locate a template
which is instantiated by the blkcipher/ablkcipher algorithm in question to
give a givcipher algorithm.

Note: From now on the collective of ablkcipher/blkcipher/givcipher will
be known as skcipher, i.e., symmetric key cipher. The name blkcipher has
always been much of a misnomer since it supports stream ciphers too.
This patch adds the function crypto_grab_skcipher as a new way of getting
an ablkcipher spawn. The problem is that previously we did this in two
steps, first getting the algorithm and then calling crypto_init_spawn.
This meant that each spawn user had to be aware of what type and mask to
use for these two steps. This is difficult and also presents a problem
when the type/mask changes as they're about to be for IV generators.
The new interface does both steps together just like crypto_alloc_ablkcipher.
As a side-effect this also allows us to be stronger on type enforcement
for spawns. For now this is only done for ablkcipher but it's trivial
to extend for other types.
This patch also moves the type/mask logic for skcipher into the helpers
crypto_skcipher_type and crypto_skcipher_mask.
Finally this patch introduces the function crypto_require_sync to determine
whether the user is specifically requesting a sync algorithm.

As it is authsize is an algorithm paramter which cannot be changed at
run-time. This is inconvenient because hardware that implements such
algorithms would have to register each authsize that they support
separately.
Since authsize is a property common to all AEAD algorithms, we can add
a function setauthsize that sets it at run-time, just like setkey.
This patch does exactly that and also changes authenc so that authsize
is no longer a parameter of its template.

Up until now we have ablkcipher algorithms have been identified as
type BLKCIPHER with the ASYNC bit set. This is suboptimal because
ablkcipher refers to two things. On the one hand it refers to the
top-level ablkcipher interface with requests. On the other hand it
refers to and algorithm type underneath.
As it is you cannot request a synchronous block cipher algorithm
with the ablkcipher interface on top. This is a problem because
we want to be able to eventually phase out the blkcipher top-level
interface.
This patch fixes this by making ABLKCIPHER its own type, just as
we have distinct types for HASH and DIGEST. The type it associated
with the algorithm implementation only.
Which top-level interface is used for synchronous block ciphers is
then determined by the mask that's used. If it's a specific mask
then the old blkcipher interface is given, otherwise we go with the
new ablkcipher interface.

Create a bit to signal that a napi_disable() is in progress.
This sets up infrastructure such that net_rx_action() can generically
break out of the ->poll() loop on a NAPI context that has a pending
napi_disable() yet is being bombed with packets (and thus would
otherwise poll endlessly and not allow the napi_disable() to finish).
Now, what napi_disable() does is first set the NAPI_STATE_DISABLE bit
(to indicate that a disable is pending), then it polls for the
NAPI_STATE_SCHED bit, and once the NAPI_STATE_SCHED bit is acquired
the NAPI_STATE_DISABLE bit is cleared. Here, the test_and_set_bit()
provides the necessary memory barrier between the various bitops.
napi_schedule_prep() now tests for a pending disable as it's first
action and won't try to obtain the NAPI_STATE_SCHED bit if a disable
is pending.
As a result, we can remove the netif_running() check in
netif_rx_schedule_prep() because the NAPI disable pending state serves
this purpose. And, it does so in a NAPI centric manner which is what
we really want.
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
It is pointless, because everything that can make a device go away
will do a napi_disable() first.
The main impetus behind this is that now we can legally do a NAPI
completion in generic code like net_rx_action() which a following
changeset needs to do. net_rx_action() can only perform actions
in NAPI centric ways, because there may be a one to many mapping
between NAPI contexts and network devices (SKY2 is one example).
We also want to get rid of this because it's an extra atomic in the
NAPI paths, and also because it is one of the last instances where the
NAPI interfaces care about net devices.
The one remaining netdev detail the NAPI stuff cares about is the
netif_running() check which will be killed off in a subsequent
changeset.

the bug was caused by maxcpus=1 bootup, which brought up the
secondary core as !cpu_online() but !cpu_is_offline() either,
which on on !CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU is always 0 (include/linux/cpu.h):
/* CPUs don't go offline once they're online w/o CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU */
static inline int cpu_is_offline(int cpu) { return 0; }
but the cpufreq code uses cpu_online() and cpu_is_offline() in
a mixed way - the low-level drivers use cpu_online(), while
the cpufreq core uses cpu_is_offline(). This opened up the
possibility to add the non-initialized sysdev device of the
secondary core:
cpufreq-core: trying to register driver powernow-k8
cpufreq-core: adding CPU 0
powernow-k8: BIOS error - no PSB or ACPI _PSS objects
cpufreq-core: initialization failed
cpufreq-core: adding CPU 1
cpufreq-core: initialization failed
which then blew up. The fix is to make cpu_is_offline() always
the negation of cpu_online(). With that fix applied the kernel
boots up fine without crashing:
Calling initcall 0xffffffff80cc0510: powernowk8_init+0x0/0x94()
powernow-k8: Found 1 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 3800+ processors (1 cpu cores) (version 2.20.00)

Calling initcall 0xffffffff80cc328f: init_lapic_nmi_sysfs+0x0/0x39()
We could fix this by making CPU enumeration aware of max_cpus, but that
would be more fragile IMO, and the cpu_online(cpu) != cpu_is_offline(cpu)
possibility was quite confusing and a continuous source of bugs too.
Most distributions have kernels with CPU hotplug enabled, so this bug
remained hidden for a long time.
Bug forensics:
The broken cpu_is_offline() API variant was introduced via:
