This patch adds new PCI and subsystem ID's that finally made the spec. It
also include a name change for one controller. I know there's a lot of
duplicat names but the fw folks wanted this for the different implementations.
Even though the same ASIC is used it may be embedded on some platforms,
standup card in others, and a mezzanine in other servers.

The soon to be released smartmontools 5.34 uses the
READ DEFECT DATA command on SCSI disks. A disk that
has defect list entries (or worse, an increasing number
of them) is at risk.
Currently the first invocation of smartctl causes this:
scsi: unknown opcode 0x37
message to appear the console and in the log.
The READ DEFECT DATA SCSI command does not change
the state of a disk. Its opcode (0x37) is valid for
SBC devices (e.g. disks) and SMC-2 devices (media
changers) where it is called INITIALIZE STATUS ELEMENT
WITH RANGE and again doesn't change the external state
of the device.
Changelog:
- mark SCSI opcode 0x37 (READ DEFECT DATA) as
safe_for_read

29 July 2005, Cambridge, MA:
This afternoon Alan Stern submitted a patch to remove the URB_ASYNC_UNLINK
flag from the Linux kernel. Mr. Stern explained, "This flag is a relic
from an earlier, less-well-designed system. For over a year it hasn't
been used for anything other than printing warning messages."
An anonymous spokesman for the Linux kernel development community
commented, "This is exactly the sort of thing we see happening all the
time. As the kernel evolves, support for old techniques and old code can
be jettisoned and replaced by newer, better approaches. Proprietary
operating systems do not have the freedom or flexibility to change so
quickly."
Mr. Stern, a staff member at Harvard University's Rowland Institute who
works on Linux only as a hobby, noted that the patch (labelled as548) did
not update two files, keyspan.c and option.c, in the USB drivers' "serial"
subdirectory. "Those files need more extensive changes," he remarked.
"They examine the status field of several URBs at times when they're not
supposed to. That will need to be fixed before the URB_ASYNC_UNLINK flag
is removed."
Greg Kroah-Hartman, the kernel maintainer responsible for overseeing all
of Linux's USB drivers, did not respond to our inquiries or return our
calls. His only comment was "Applied, thanks."

Back out Axboe-style quasi-S/G and replace it with one command and
repeated URBs. This is similar to what usb-storage does, only instead
of a few URBs allocated together, one URB is reused.
Jens's idea was very nice, but it collapsed when I had to support
packet commads for CD burning. I cannot issue two or more packet
commands where application expected only one.
However, burning does not work completely yet. The cdrecord starts,
recognizes the device, then aborts without writing a TOC.

This the quasi-S/G patch for ub as suggested by Jens Axboe at OLS and
implemented that night before 4 a.m. Surprisingly, it worked right away...
Alas, I had to skip some OLS partying, but it was for the good cause.
Now the speed of ub is quite acceptable even on partitions with small
block size.
The ub does not really support S/G. Instead, it just tells the block
layer that it does. Then, most of the time, the block layer merges
requests and passes single-segmnent requests down to ub; everything
works as before. Very rarely ub gets an unmerged S/G request. In such
case, it issues several commands to the device.
I added a small array of counters to monitor the merging (sg_stat).
This may be dropped later.

Sanitized and fixed floppy dependencies: split the messy dependencies for
BLK_DEV_FD by introducing a new symbol (ARCH_MAY_HAVE_PC_FDC), making
BLK_DEV_FD depend on that one and taking declarations of ARCH_MAY_HAVE_PC_FDC
to arch/*/Kconfig. While we are at it, fixed several obvious cases when
BLK_DEV_FD should have been excluded (architectures lacking asm/floppy.h
are *not* going to have floppy.c compile, let alone work).
If you can come up with better name for that ("this architecture might
have working PC-compatible floppy disk controller"), you are more than

I ran across a memory leak related to the cfq scheduler. The cfq
init function increments the refcnt of the associated request_queue.
This refcount gets decremented in cfq's exit function. Since blk_cleanup_queue
only calls the elevator exit function when its refcnt goes to zero, the
request_q never gets cleaned up. It didn't look like other io schedulers were
incrementing this refcnt, so I removed the refcnt increment and it fixed the
memory leak for me.
To reproduce the problem, simply use cfq and use the scsi_host scan sysfs
attribute to scan "- - -" repeatedly on a scsi host and watch the memory
vanish.

One critical fix and two minor fixes for 2.6.13-rc7:
- Max depth must currently be 2 to allow barriers to function on SCSI
- Prefer sync request over async in choosing the next request
- Never allow async request to preempt or disturb the "anticipation" for
a single cfq process context. This is as-designed, the code right now

My patch in commit fa72b903f7 incorrectly
removed blk_queue_tag->real_max_depth.
The original resize implementation was incorrect in the following
points.
* actual allocation size of tag_index was shorter than real_max_size,
but assumed to be of the same size, possibly causing memory access
beyond the allocated area.
* bits in tag_map between max_deptn and real_max_depth were
initialized to 1's, making the tags permanently reserved.
In an attempt to fix above two bugs, I had removed allocation optimization
in init_tag_map and real_max_size. Tag map/index were allocated and freed
immediately during resize.
Unfortunately, I wasn't considering that tag map/index can be resized
dynamically with tags beyond new_depth active. This led to accessing
freed area after shrinking tags and led to the following bug reporting
thread on linux-scsi.
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-scsi&m=112319898111885&w=2
To fix the problem, I've revived real_max_depth without allocation
optimization in init_tag_map, and Andrew Vasquez confirmed that the
problem was fixed. As Jens is not going to be available for a week, he
asked me to make sure that this patch reaches you.
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-scsi&m=112325778530886&w=2

This patch adds per disk queue functionality to cciss. Sometime back I

kernel if we have more than one logical volume the driver will Oops during
rmmod. It seems all of the queues actually point back to the same queue.
So after deleting the first volume you hit a null pointer on the second
one.

- Fix a few cases where we were unable to resynchronize with replies

In the case where the request is not able to be merged by the elevator, don't
retake the lock and retry the merge mechanism after allocating a new request.
Instead assume that the chance of a merge remains slim, and now that we've
done most of the work allocating a request we may as well just go with it.
Also be rid of the GFP_ATOMIC allocation: we've got working mempools for the
block layer now, so let's save atomic memory for things like networking.
Lastly, in get_request_wait, do an initial get_request call before going into
the waitqueue. This is reported to help efficiency.

Currently we cap request allocations at q->nr_requests, but we allow a
batching io context to allocate up to 32 more (default setting). This
can flood the queue with request allocations, with only a few batching
processes. The real fix would be to limit the number of batchers, but
as that isn't currently tracked, I suggest we just cap the maximum
number of allocated requests to eg 50% over the limit.
This was observed in real life, users typically see this as vmstat bo
numbers going off the wall with seconds of no queueing afterwards.
