SCSI: aacraid: Eliminate use after free

2010-08-02T17:26:35Z

commit 8a52da632ceb9d8b776494563df579e87b7b586b upstream. The debugging code using the freed structure is moved before the kfree. A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // @free@ expression E; position p; @@ kfree@p(E) @@ expression free.E, subE<=free.E, E1; position free.p; @@ kfree@p(E) ... ( subE = E1 | * E ) // Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall Signed-off-by: James Bottomley

[SCSI] aacraid: fix File System going into read-only mode

2010-01-17T18:16:17Z

These particular problems were reported by Cisco and SAP and customers as well. Cisco reported on RHEL4 U6 and SAP reported on SLES9 SP4 and SLES10 SP2. We added these fixes on RHEL4 U6 and gave a private build to IBM and Cisco. Cisco and IBM tested it for more than 15 days and they reported that they did not see the issue so far. Before the fix, Cisco used to see the issue within 5 days. We generated a patch for SLES9 SP4 and SLES10 SP2 and submitted to Novell. Novell applied the patch and gave a test build to SAP. SAP tested and reported that the build is working properly. We also tested in our lab using the tools "dishogsync", which is IO stress tool and the tool was provided by Cisco. Issue1: File System going into read-only mode Root cause: The driver tends to not free the memory (FIB) when the management request exits prematurely. The accumulation of such un-freed memory causes the driver to fail to allocate anymore memory (FIB) and hence return 0x70000 value to the upper layer, which puts the file system into read only mode. Fix details: The fix makes sure to free the memory (FIB) even if the request exits prematurely hence ensuring the driver wouldn't run out of memory (FIBs). Issue2: False Raid Alert occurs When the Physical Drives and Logical drives are reported as deleted or added, even though there is no change done on the system Root cause: Driver IOCTLs is signaled with EINTR while waiting on response from the lower layers. Returning "EINTR" will never initiate internal retry. Fix details: The issue was fixed by replacing "EINTR" with "ERESTARTSYS" for mid-layer retries.

[SCSI] modify change_queue_depth to take in reason why it is being called

2009-12-04T18:00:41Z

This patch modifies scsi_host_template->change_queue_depth so that it takes an argument indicating why it is being called. This will be used so that if a LLD needs to do some extra processing when handling queue fulls or later ramp ups, it can do so. This is a simple port of the drivers setting a change_queue_depth callback. In the patch I just have these LLDs adjust the queue depth if the user was requesting it. Signed-off-by: Mike Christie [Vasu.Dev: v2 Also converted pmcraid_change_queue_depth and then verified all modules compile using "make allmodconfig" for any new build warnings on X86_64. Updated original description after combing two original patches from Mike to make this patch git bisectable.] Signed-off-by: Vasu Dev [jejb: fixed up 53c700] Signed-off-by: James Bottomley

Replace all DMA_nBIT_MASK macro with DMA_BIT_MASK(n)

2009-04-13T22:04:33Z

This is the second go through of the old DMA_nBIT_MASK macro,and there're not so many of them left,so I put them into one patch.I hope this is the last round. After this the definition of the old DMA_nBIT_MASK macro could be removed. Signed-off-by: Yang Hongyang Cc: Russell King Cc: Tony Lindgren Cc: "David S.
