Jiri Kosina 45dc1ac73d HID: propagate return value correctly in hid_input_report()
Fix a return value propagation that was omitted in David Herrmann's
locking fix around hid_input_report().

David Herrmann 4ea5454203 HID: Fix race condition between driver core and ll-driver
HID low level drivers register new devices with the HID core which then
adds the devices to the HID bus. The HID bus normally immediately probes
an appropriate driver which then handles HID input for this device.
The ll driver now uses the hid_input_report() function to report input
events for a specific device. However, if the HID bus unloads the driver
at the same time (for instance via a call to
 /sys/bus/hid/devices/<dev>/unbind) then the hdev->driver pointer may be
used by hid_input_report() and hid_device_remove() at the same time
which may cause hdev->driver to point to invalid memory.

This fix adds a semaphore to every hid device which protects
hdev->driver from asynchronous access. This semaphore is locked during
driver *_probe and *_remove and also inside hid_input_report(). The
*_probe and *_remove functions may sleep so the semaphore is good here,
however, hid_input_report() is in atomic context and hence only uses
down_trylock(). If it cannot acquire the lock it simply drops the input
package.

The low-level drivers report input events synchronously so
hid_input_report() should never be entered twice at the same time on the
same device. Hence, the lock should always be available. But if the
driver is currently probed/removed then the lock is not available and
dropping the package should be safe because this is what would have
happened if the package arrived some milliseconds earlier/later.

This also fixes another race condition while probing drivers:
First the *_probe function of the driver is called and only if that
succeeds, the related input device of hidinput is registered. If the low
level driver reports input events after the *_probe function returned
but before the input device is registered, then a NULL pointer
dereference will occur. (Equivalently on driver remove function).
This is not possible anymore, since the semaphore lock drops all
incoming packages until the driver/device is fully initialized.

Mark Brown b83a313bf2 regmap: Add generic non-memory mapped register access API
There are many places in the tree where we implement register access for
devices on non-memory mapped buses, especially I2C and SPI. Since hardware
designers seem to have settled on a relatively consistent set of register
interfaces this can be effectively factored out into shared code.  There
are a standard set of formats for marshalling data for exchange with the
device, with the actual I/O mechanisms generally being simple byte
streams.

We create an abstraction for marshaling data into formats which can be
sent on the control interfaces, and create a standard method for
plugging in actual transport underneath that.

This is mostly a refactoring and renaming of the bottom level of the
existing code for sharing register I/O which we have in ASoC. A
subsequent patch in this series converts ASoC to use this.  The main
difference in interface is that reads return values by writing to a
location provided by a pointer rather than in the return value, ensuring
we can use the full range of the type for register data.  We also use
unsigned types rather than ints for the same reason.

As some of the devices can have very large register maps the existing
ASoC code also contains infrastructure for managing register caches.
This cache work will be moved over in a future stage to allow for
separate review, the current patch only deals with the physical I/O.

Ohad Ben-Cohen e72542191c virtio: expose for non-virtualization users too
virtio has been so far used only in the context of virtualization,
and the virtio Kconfig was sourced directly by the relevant arch
Kconfigs when VIRTUALIZATION was selected.

Now that we start using virtio for inter-processor communications,
we need to source the virtio Kconfig outside of the virtualization
scope too.

Moreover, some architectures might use virtio for both virtualization
and inter-processor communications, so directly sourcing virtio
might yield unexpected results due to conflicting selections.

The simple solution offered by this patch is to always source virtio's
Kconfig in drivers/Kconfig, and remove it from the appropriate arch
Kconfigs. Additionally, a virtio menu entry has been added so virtio
drivers don't show up in the general drivers menu.

This way anyone can use virtio, though it's arguably less accessible
(and neat!) for virtualization users now.

Note: some architectures (mips and sh) seem to have a VIRTUALIZATION
menu merely for sourcing virtio's Kconfig, so that menu is removed too.

Mike Marciniszyn e67306a380 IB/qib: Defer HCA error events to tasklet
With ib_qib options:

    options ib_qib krcvqs=1 pcie_caps=0x51 rcvhdrcnt=4096 singleport=1 ibmtu=4

a run of ib_write_bw -a yields the following:

    ------------------------------------------------------------------
     #bytes     #iterations    BW peak[MB/sec]    BW average[MB/sec]
     1048576   5000           2910.64            229.80

    missed the LLC) with a unit mask of 0x41 (No unit mask) count 10000

    4106      7.8860  0              0  vmlinux                  vsnprintf


Analysis of the stats, profile, the code, and the annotated profile indicate:
 - All of the overflow interrupts (one per packet overflow) are
   serviced on CPU0 with no mitigation on the frequency.
 - All of the receive interrupts are being serviced by CPU0.  (That is
   the way truescale.cmds statically allocates the kctx IRQs to CPU)
 - The code is spending all of its time servicing QIB_I_C_ERROR
   RcvEgrFullErr interrupts on CPU0, starving the packet receive
   processing.
 - The decode_err routine is very inefficient, using a printf variant
   to format a "%s" and continues to loop when the errs mask has been
   cleared.
 - Both qib_7322intr and handle_7322_errors read pci registers, which
   is very inefficient.

The fix does the following:
 - Adds a tasklet to service QIB_I_C_ERROR
 - Replaces the very inefficient scnprintf() with a memcpy().  A field
   is added to qib_hwerror_msgs to save the sizeof("string") at
   compile time so that a strlen is not needed during err_decode().
 - The most frequent errors (Overflows) are serviced first to exit the
   loop as early as possible.
 - The loop now exits as soon as the errs mask is clear rather than
   fruitlessly looping through the msp array.

With this fix the performance changes to:

    ------------------------------------------------------------------
     #bytes     #iterations    BW peak[MB/sec]    BW average[MB/sec]
     1048576   5000           2990.64            2941.35
    ------------------------------------------------------------------

During testing of the error handling overflow patch, it was determined
that some CPU's were slower when servicing both overflow and receive
interrupts on CPU0 with different MSI interrupt vectors.

This patch adds an option (krcvq01_no_msi) to not use a dedicated MSI
interrupt for kctx's < 2 and to service them on the default interrupt.
For some CPUs, the cost of the interrupt enter/exit is more costly
than then the additional PCI read in the default handler.

Andy Grover ec98f7825c target: Eliminate usage of struct se_mem
Both backstores and fabrics use arrays of struct scatterlist to describe
data buffers. However TCM used struct se_mems, basically a linked list
of scatterlist entries. We are able to simplify the code by eliminating
this intermediate data structure and just using struct scatterlist[]
throughout.

Also, moved attachment of task to cmd out of transport_generic_get_task
and into allocate_control_task and allocate_data_tasks. The reasoning
is that it's nonintuitive that get_task should automatically add it to
the cmd's task list -- it should just return an allocated, initialized
task. That's all it should do, based on the function's name, so either the
function shouldn't do it, or the name should change to encapsulate the
entire essence of what it does.

Andy Grover d0229ae3fe target: Enforce 1 page max for control cdb buffer sizes
Due to all cdbs' data buffers being referenced by scatterlists, buffers
of more than a page are not contiguous. Instead of handling this in all
control command handlers, we may be able to get away with just limiting
control cdb data buffers to one page. The only control CDBs we handle that
have potentially large data buffers are REPORT LUNS and UNMAP, so if we
didn't want to live with this limitation, they would need to be modified
to walk the pages in the data buffer's sgl.

Andy Grover 05d1c7c0d0 target: Make all control CDBs scatter-gather
Previously, some control CDBs did not allocate memory in pages for their
data buffer, but just did a kmalloc. This patch makes all cdbs allocate
pages.

This has the benefit of streamlining some paths that had to behave
differently when we used two allocation methods. The downside is that
all accesses to the data buffer need to kmap it before use, and need to
handle data in page-sized chunks if more than a page is needed for a given
command's data buffer.

Finally, note that cdbs with no data buffers are handled a little
differently. Before, SCSI_NON_DATA_CDBs would not call get_mem at all
(they'd be in the final else in transport_allocate_resources) but now
these will make it into generic_get_mem, but just not allocate any
buffers.
