Salyzyn, Mark 94cf6ba11b [SCSI] aacraid: fix driver failure with Dell PowerEdge Expandable RAID Controller 3/Di
As reported in http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3D9133 it was
discovered that the PERC line of controllers lacked a key 64 bit
ScatterGather capable SCSI pass-through function. The adapters are still
capable of 64 bit ScatterGather I/O commands, but these two can not be
mixed. This problem was exacerbated by the introduction of the SCSI
Generic access to the DASD physical devices.

The fix for users before this patch is applied is aacraid.dacmode=3D0 on
the kernel command line to disable 64 bit I/O.

The enclosed patch introduces a new adapter quirk and tries to limp
along by enabling pass-through in situations where memory is 32 bit
addressable on 64 bit machines, or disable the pass-through functions
altogether. I expect that the check for 32 bit addressable memory to be
controversial in that it can be incorrect in non-Dell non-Intel systems
that PERC would never be installed under, the alternative is to disable
pass-through in all cases which could be reported as another regression.

Pass-through is used for SCSI Generic access to the physical devices, or
for the management applications to properly function.

In systems where this patch has disabled pass-through because it is
unsupportable in combination with I/O performance, the user can choose
to enable pass-through by turning off dacmode (aacraid.dacmode=3D0) or
limiting the discovered kernel memory (mem=3D4G) with an associated loss
in runtime performance. If we chose instead to turn off 64 bit dacmode
for the adapters with this quirk, then this would be reported as another
regression.

Actually there are a lot of endianess warnings, fortunately most of them
harmless.  The patch below fixes all of them up (including the ones in
the patch I replied to), except for aac_init_adapter which is really odd
and I don't know what to do.

Salyzyn, Mark f858317d89 [SCSI] aacraid: forced reset override
Some of our vendors have requested that our adapters ignore the hardware
reset attempts during recovery and have enforced this with changes in
Adapter Firmware. Some of our customers have requested the option to be
able to reset the adapter under adverse adapter failure, we even had a
few defects reported here considering it a regression that the Adapter
could not be reset. This patch addresses this dichotomy. The user can
force the adapter to be reset if it supports the IOP_RESET_ALWAYS
command, in cases where the adapter has been programmed to ignore the
reset, by setting the aacraid.check_reset parameter to a value of -1.

The driver will not reset an Adapter that does not support the reset
command(s).

This patch also fixes and cleans up some of the logic associated with
resetting the adapter.

Alan Cox 5f78e89b5f [SCSI] aacraid: fix security weakness
Actually there are several but one is trivially fixed

1.	FSACTL_GET_NEXT_ADAPTER_FIB ioctl does not lock dev->fib_list
but needs to
2.	Ditto for FSACTL_CLOSE_GET_ADAPTER_FIB
3.	It is possible to construct an attack via the SRB ioctls where
the user obtains assorted elevated privileges. Various approaches are
possible, the trivial ones being things like writing to the raw media
via scsi commands and the swap image of other executing programs with
higher privileges.

So the ioctls should be CAP_SYS_RAWIO - at least all the FIB manipulating
ones. This is a bandaid fix for #3 but probably the ioctls should grow
their own capable checks. The other two bugs need someone competent in that
driver to fix them.

Al Viro 142956af52 fix abuses of ptrdiff_t
Use of ptrdiff_t in places like

-                       if (!access_ok(VERIFY_WRITE, u_tmp->rx_buf, u_tmp->len))
+                       if (!access_ok(VERIFY_WRITE, (u8 __user *)

+                                               u_tmp->len))

is wrong; for one thing, it's a bad C (it's what uintptr_t is for; in general
we are not even promised that ptrdiff_t is large enough to hold a pointer,
just enough to hold a difference between two pointers within the same object).
For another, it confuses the fsck out of sparse.

Use unsigned long or uintptr_t instead.  There are several places misusing
ptrdiff_t; fixed.

Salyzyn, Mark 9859c1aa7e [SCSI] aacraid: fix Sunrise Lake reset handling
The patch is *much* smaller than the description. I am attempting to
answer to those that want to understand an issue that was reported in
May this year.

If a Sunrise Lake based card that requires an alternate reset mechanism
is set up to ignore the commanded IOP_RESET it reports 0x00000010
(IOP_RESET ignored) instead of 0x3803000F (use alternate reset mechanism
to reset all cores), and thus the reset platform function decides to
switch to IOP_RESET_ALWAYS because the reset platform function
parameters indicate that we *need* to reset the card. IOP_RESET_ALWAYS
then responds with the 0x3803000F return code, but alas we treat this as
an error instead of using the alternate reset mechanism (put a 0x03 into
the register offset 0x38). The reset fails, but the fact that the
IOP_RESET_ALWAYS command was issued has put the card in a purposeful
shutdown state in preparation for the alternate hardware reset to be
applied. Yuck.

IOP_RESET is ignored in internal production cards, typically to ensure
that we catch all adapter lockup issues without the driver progressing
further, so this would not appear to be a field issue and thus this
patch was destined to be only in the internal Adaptec source tree.
IOP_RESET_ALWAYS is reserved for
kexec/kdump/FirmwareUpdate/AutomatedTestFrames so we did not function as
expected in any case. Also in the past we have had OEMs specifically
request that cards not be resetable after a BlinkLED/FirmwareAssert for
one reason or another and To head off the possibility that the Sunrise
Lake based cards would suffer a similar fate, we propose the enclosed
fix.

Yinghai Lu of SUN had a pre-production card with IOP_RESET disabled when
he reported an issue to the linux kernel list back in May regarding a
kexec problem resulting from this reset being ignore. His fix was to
update the Firmware to one that did not ignore the IOP_RESET. Previous
kernels did not attempt to reset the adapter and that is why it surfaced
as a regression in his hands.

The current list of aacraid based cards that use Sunrise Lake:

9005:0285:9005:02b5     Adaptec 5445
9005:0285:9005:02b6     Adaptec 5805

Salyzyn, Mark b90f90d230 [SCSI] aacraid: add SCSI SYNCHONIZE_CACHE range checking
Customer running an application that issues SYNCHRONIZE_CACHE calls
directly noticed the broad stroke of the current implementation in the
aacraid driver resulting in multiple applications feeding I/O to the
storage causing the issuing application to stall for long periods of
time. By only waiting for the current WRITE commands, rather than all
commands, to complete; and those that are in range of the
SYNCHRONIZE_CACHE call that would associate more tightly with the
issuing application before telling the Firmware to flush it's dirty
cache, we managed to reduce the stalling. The Firmware itself still
flushes all the dirty cache associated with the array ignoring the
range, it just does so in a more timely manner.

Salyzyn, Mark 88e2f98e1b [SCSI] aacraid: add vpd to inquiry
Report VPD inquiry page 0x80 with an unique array creation serial
number (CUID). When an array is created, the metadata stored on the
physical drives gets an unique serial number. This serial number
remains constant through array morphing or migration to other
controllers.  This patch is a forward port and modification to survive
morphing and migration operations, of a similar piece of
(un-attributed author) code added to the SLES10 SP1 aacraid driver.

To test the results of the patch, observe that /dev/disk/by-id/
entries will show up for the arrays resulting from the udev rules.
Also, as per the udev rules, 'scsi_id -g -x -a -s /block/sd? -d
/dev/sd?'  will report the ID_SERIAL as constructed from the inquiry
data.

It was reported to me that the 'ADPT' leading the serial number was bad
form, that the inquiry vendor field was enough to differentiate the
storage uniquely. Subsequent search found that another Adaptec AAC based
driver reported the 8 hex serial number only without such adornments, so
dropped ADPT to match. Resubmitting the patch with this alteration.

4) Use a lower depth pointer reference to pick up the driver instance

5) Although effectively unused except to fake for scsicmd validity, set
the scsi_done in probe code to aac_probe_container_callback1 instead of
the less valid dummy reference to _aac_probe_container1.
6) SCp.phase is set in aac_valid_context, drop setting up this value in
caller when unnecessary.
7) take container target id at the beginning, rather than referencing
scmd_id() to pick it up.

There should be no side effects or functionality changes.

Salyzyn, Mark 94774a3a8e [SCSI] aacraid: fix shutdown handler to also disable interrupts.
Moves quiesce, thread and interrupt shutdown into aacraid drivers'
.shutdown handler. This fix to the aac_shutdown handler will remove the
superfluous reset of the adapter during a (clean) kexec.

This fix may mitigate the active investigation 'kexec and aacraid
broken' but it is unlikely to affect the root cause (issue likely
present in both kexec and kdump). This patch reduces the chance the
problem will occur with a kexec. The fix for root cause is currently
expected to be the minimum value check to the aacraid.startup_timeout
driver variable after an adapter reset within aacraid_commit_reset.patch
submitted on 05/22/2007 and awaiting testing by Yinghai to confirm.

Salyzyn, Mark 1208bab5d0 [SCSI] aacraid: apply commit config for reset_devices flag
Under some conditions associated with the unclean transition to kdump,
the aacraid adapters will view the array as foreign and not export it to
prevent access and data manipulation. The solution is to submit a commit
configuration to export the devices since this is a expected behavior
when transitioning to a kdump kernel.

This patch adds the aacraid.reset_devices flag and when either this or
the global reset_devices flag is set, ensures that a commit config is
issued and extends the startup_timeout if it is set less than 5 minutes.

Salyzyn, Mark 9d399cc7fe [SCSI] aacraid: add support for FUA
Back in the beginning of last year we disabled mode page 8 and mode page
3f requests through device quirk bits instead of enhancing the driver to
respond to these mode pages because there was no apparent added value.

The Firmware that supports the new communication commands supports the
ability to force a write around of the adapter cache on a command by
command basis. In the attached patch we enable mode page 8 and 3f and
spoof the results as needed in order to *convince* the layers above to
submit writes with the FUA (Force Unit Attention) bit set if the file
system or application requires it, if the Firmware supports the write
through, or instead to submit a SYNCHRONIZE_CACHE if the Firmware does
not. The added value here is for file systems that benefit from this
functionality and for clustering or redundancy scenarios.

Caveats: By convince, we are responding with a minimal short 3 byte
content mode page 8, with only the data the SCSI layer needs and that we
can fill confidently. Applications that require the customarily larger
mode page 8 results may be confused by this(?). The FUA, or the
SYNCHRONIZE_CACHE only affect the cache on the controller. Our firmware
by default ensure that the underlying physical drives of the array have
their cache turned off so normally this is not a problem.

This attached patch is against current scsi-misc-2.6 and was unit tested
on RHEL5. Since this is a feature enhancement, it should not be
considered for any current stabilization efforts.

On digging into it, it turned out that the customer was probing an

was blindly trying to use aac_internal_transfer to copy the container
name to byte 16 of the inquiry data, resulting in a negative transfer
length.  It then copies over the whole of kernel memory before
dropping off the end.

In order to find all possibly affected files, I searched for all

Salyzyn, Mark 18a6598f2d [SCSI] aacraid: [Fastboot] Panics for AACRAID driver during 'insmod' for kexec test.
Attached is the patch I feel will address this issue. As an added
'perk' I have also added the code to detect if the controller was
previously initialized for interrupted operations by ANY operating
system should the reset_devices kernel parameter not be set and we are
dealing with a naïve kexec without the addition of this kernel
parameter. The reset handler is also improved. Related to reset
operations, but not pertinent specifically to this issue, I have also
altered the handling somewhat so that we reset the adapter if we feel
it is taking too long (three minutes) to start up.

We have not unit tested the reset_devices flag propagation to this
driver code, nor have we unit tested the check for the interrupted
operations under the conditions of a naively issued kexec. We are
submitting this modified driver to our Q/A department for integration
testing in our current programs. I would appreciate an ACK to this
patch should it resolve the issue described in this thread...

The Adapter build date that is to be printed on instantiation was not
displayed as a result of the supplemental adapter information structure
not being in sync with the Firmware; the driver took an early test cycle
version that had a miss-sized padded region at the head and the
structure was not re-checked at the end of qualification. The Build Date
was not a priority and is merely a cosmetic enhancement, and the wrong
location for the start of the structure member would not induce any
side-effect problems. We updated the structure to match the actual
format, and added the TSID (Tech Support Identification) value print,
should it be present, to the adapter instantiation announcements during
driver load.

This later enhancement should improve the relationship between Service
folk & Tech Support if the printed value of the TSID found it's way into
the circular file labeled G...

Mark Haverkamp 03d4433721 [SCSI] aacraid: Improved error handling
Received from Mark Salyzyn,

This set of fixes improve error handling stability of the driver. A popular
manifestation of the problems is an NULL pointer reference in the interrupt
handler when referencing portions of the scsi command context, or in the
scsi_done handling when an offlined device is referenced.

The aacraid driver currently does not get notification of orphaned command
completions due to devices going offline. The driver also fails to handle the
commands that are finished by the error handler, and thus can complete again
later at the hands of the adapter causing situations of completion of an
invalid scsi command context. Test Unit Ready calls abort assuming that the
abort was successful, but are not, and thus when the interrupt from the adapter
occurs, they reference invalid command contexts. We add in a TIMED_OUT flag to
inform the aacraid FIB context that the interrupt service should merely release
the driver resources and not complete the command up. We take advantage of this
with the abort handler as well for select abortable commands. And we detect and
react if a command that can not be aborted is currently still outstanding to
the controller when reissued by the retry mechanism.

Received from Mark Salyzyn,

The raw srb ioctl is supposed to be able to take packets with 32 and 64 bit

not handle the 32 bit limited DMA adapters at all.  The enclosed patch now
handles all four quadrants (32 bit / 64 bit SG elements in SRB requests + 32
bit or 64 bit DMA capable adapters)

This fix is required before Java based management applications in a 64 bit user
space can submit raw srb requests to the array physical components via the
ioctl mechanism, the allocated user memory pool on 64 bit machines under this
environment forced the management software's hands to submit 64 bit user space
virtual address SG elements in via the ioctl.

Received from Mark Salyzyn,

The aac_probe_container call blocks. This is an issue because it is called on
occasion in the context of the queuecommand handler. Once in a blue moon this
has resulted in a kernel panic sleeping during interrupt; or problems with some
embedded system versions of the kernel that depend on queuecommand to not
block. This ugly patch rewrites the aac_probe_container call into a new routine
_aac_probe_container that is an asynchronous state machine to complete the
series of operations. The legacy blocking aac_probe_container call used in
other areas of the driver (during initialization scanning for all targets and
in the separate hot-add/remove [aacraid] thread) merely issues
_aac_probe_container and then simple spins calling schedule() waiting for
completion.

Tim Schmielau cd354f1ae7 [PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.h
After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
anything defined in there.  Presumably these includes were once needed for
macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
course of cleaning it up.

To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.

Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
configs in arch/arm/configs on arm.  I also checked that no new warnings were
introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
by unnecessarily included header files).

Mark Haverkamp d18b448fc2 [SCSI] aacraid: Abort management FIBs
Received from Mark Salyzyn:

Add code to abort outstanding management ioctl fibs when the blinkLED recovery
is performed. This code is 'clunky' and does not have any real feedback in that
the reset could progress before the user application has gotten it's
notification of command completion. We put a schedule() call to delay just the
right amount for most cases, because we tried a spin and still managed to find
cases where we would spin forever waiting for the management application to
acknowledge the impending doom surrounding the cause of the BlinkLED. Will
cause an oops in the context of the management application if we proceed too
quickly. I view this as the lesser of many evils since currently if there are
outstanding management ioctls during a need to reset/recover the adapter, the
management application just locks up and waits forever. The best practices fix
for this problem not going to be simple or easy (at least the fixes I imagine
today); and we found a balance between the needs of the driver to proceed, and
the applications that locked or confused that would hold back the driver. I
just do not like the idea of a kernel oops in an application to deal with low
priority, sluggish or misbehaving applications.

David Howells 7d12e780e0 IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlers
Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
Linux kernel.

The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
space and code to pass it around.  On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
(ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).

Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
something different with the variable.  On FRV, for instance, the address is
maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
handling.

Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
through up to twenty or so layers of functions.  Consider a USB character
device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller.  A character
device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.

I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386.  I've runtested the
main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
with minimal configurations.

This will affect all archs.  Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:

	struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);

And put the old one back at the end:

	set_irq_regs(old_regs);

Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().

In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:

	-	update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
	-	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
	+	update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
	+	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);

I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().

Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:

 (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely.  The regs pointer is no longer stored in
     the input_dev struct.

 (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking.  It does
     something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
     pointer or not.

 (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
     irq_handler_t.

Note that the pass-through I/O path via the driver through the Firmware to the

RAID, elevator sorting and caching. This should not be used as a means for
utilizing the aacraid based controllers as a generic scsi/SATA/SAS controller,
performance should suck by a few percentage points, any RAID meta-data on the
drives will confuse the controller about who owns the drives and there is a
high risk of destroying content in both directions. Unreliable and for

Add the ability to adjust for unusual corner case failures. Both of

Aif_timeout can be increased past the default 2 minute timeout to drop
application registrations when a system has an unusually high event load
resulting from continuing management requests, or simultaneous builds,
or sluggish user space as a result of system load.

Startup_timeout can be increased past the default 3 minute timeout to
drop an adapter initialization for systems that have a very large number
of targets, or slow to spin-up targets, or a complicated set of array
configurations that extend the time for the firmware to declare that it
is operational. This timeout would only have an affect on non-intel
based systems, as the (more patient) BIOS would generally be where the
startup delay would be dealt with.

Juan was kind enough to linger on site, and work on a production

that reducing the maximum transfer size issued to the adapter to 128KB

2.6.13 tree resulting from Martin Drab's testing where the transfer size
was reduced from 4G to 256KB; we needed to go still further in scaling
back the request size.

introducing a 3 minute timeout on the first interrupt driven command

common (but rare) hardware misbehaviors.

Received from Mark Salyzyn from Adaptec:

If the Adapter is quiet and does not produce an AIF event packets to be
picked up by the management applications for longer than the timeout
interval of two minutes, the cleanup code that deals with aging out
registrants could erroneously drop the registration. The timeout is
there to clean up should the management application die and fail to poll
for updated AIF event packets.

Moving the timer update from the ioctl code that delivers an AIF to the
polling registrant to the bottom of the ioctl means the timeout is reset
with any management application polling activity regardless if an AIF is
delivered or not removing the erroneous timeout cleanups.

Received from Mark Salyzyn from Adaptec:

If more than two commands are outstanding to the controller, there is no
need to notify the adapter via a PCI bus transaction of additional
commands added into the queue; it will get to them when it works through
the produce/consumer indexes.

This reduced the PCI traffic in the driver to submit a command to the
queue to near zero allowing a significant number of commands to be
turned around with no need to block for the PCI bridge to flush the
notify request to the adapter.

Interrupt mitigation has always been present in the driver; it was
turned off because of a bug that prevented one from realizing the
usefulness of the feature. This bug is fixed in this patch.
