2007-07-27[SCSI] iscsi_tcp: Turn off bounce buffersMike Christie
It was found by LSI that on setups with large amounts of memory we were bouncing buffers when we did not need to. If the iscsi tcp code touches the data buffer (or a helper does), it will kmap the buffer. iscsi_tcp also does not interact with hardware, so it does not have any hw dma restrictions. This patch sets the bounce buffer settings for our device queue so buffers should not be bounced because of a driver limit.

2007-07-27[SCSI] libiscsi: make sure session is not blocked when removing hostMike Christie
When we logout we block the session since we are not taking any more commands, but when we call remove host we want to make sure any IO that got queued up and blocked gets failed upwards quickly, so we unblock the session and fail it.

2007-07-229p: Don't use binary sysctl numbers.Eric W. Biederman
The recent 9p commit: bd238fb431f31989898423c8b6496bc8c4204a86 that supposedly only moved files also introduced a new 9p sysctl interface that did not properly register it's sysctl binary numbers. And since it was only for debugging clearly did not need a binary fast path in any case. So this patch just remove the binary numbers. See Documentation/sysctl/ctl_unnumbered.txt for more details. While I was at it I cleaned up the sysctl initializers a little as well so there is less to read.

2007-07-22x86: Replace NSC/Cyrix specific chipset access macros by inlined functions.Juergen Beisert
Due to index register access ordering problems, when using macros a line like this fails (and does nothing): setCx86(CX86_CCR2, getCx86(CX86_CCR2) | 0x88); With inlined functions this line will work as expected. Note about a side effect: Seems on Geode GX1 based systems the "suspend on halt power saving feature" was never enabled due to this wrong macro expansion. With inlined functions it will be enabled, but this will stop the TSC when the CPU runs into a HLT instruction. Kernel output something like this: Clocksource tsc unstable (delta = -472746897 ns) This is the 3rd version of this patch. - Adding missed arch/i386/kernel/cpu/mtrr/state.c Thanks to Andres Salomon - Adding some big fat comments into the new header file Suggested by Andi Kleen AK: fixed x86-64 compilation Signed-off-by: Juergen Beisert <juergen@kreuzholzen.de> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

The new function remaps the code using vmap to write it and takes care of CPU synchronization. It also does CLFLUSH to make icache recovery faster. There are some limitations on when the function can be used, see the comment. This is a newer version that also changes the paravirt_ops code. text_poke also supports multi byte patching now.
