It seems like the addition of QUEUE_FLAG_VIRT caueses major performance
regressions for Fedora users:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=509383
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=505695
while I can't reproduce those extreme regressions myself I think the flag
is wrong.
Rationale:
QUEUE_FLAG_VIRT expands to QUEUE_FLAG_NONROT which casus the queue
unplugged immediately. This is not a good behaviour for at least
qemu and kvm where we do have significant overhead for every
I/O operations. Even with all the latested speeups (native AIO,
MSI support, zero copy) we can only get native speed for up to 128kb
I/O requests we already are down to 66% of native performance for 4kb
requests even on my laptop running the Intel X25-M SSD for which the
QUEUE_FLAG_NONROT was designed.
If we ever get virtio-blk overhead low enough that this flag makes
sense it should only be set based on a feature flag set by the host.

Use excl_link when non NCQ commands are defered, to be sure they are processed
as soon as outstanding commands are completed. It prevents some commands to be
defered indifinitely when using a port multiplier.

When an internal command fails, it should be failed directly without
invoking EH. In the original implemetation, this was accomplished by
letting internal command bypass failure handling in ata_qc_complete().
However, later changes added post-successful-completion handling to
that code path and the success path is no longer adequate as internal
command failure path. One of the visible problems is that internal
command failure due to timeout or other freeze conditions would
spuriously trigger WARN_ON_ONCE() in the success path.
This patch updates failure path such that internal command failure
handling is contained there.

Commit 842faa6c1a1d6faddf3377948e5cf214812c6c90 fixed error handling
during attach by not committing detected device class to dev->class
while attaching a new device. However, this change missed the PMP
class check in the configuration loop causing a new PMP device to go
through ata_dev_configure() as if it were an ATA or ATAPI device.
As PMP device doesn't have a regular IDENTIFY data, this makes
ata_dev_configure() tries to configure a PMP device using an invalid
data. For the most part, it wasn't too harmful and went unnoticed but
this ends up clearing dev->flags which may have ATA_DFLAG_AN set by
sata_pmp_attach(). This means that SATA_PMP_FEAT_NOTIFY ends up being
disabled on PMPs and on PMPs which honor the flag breaks hotplug
support.
This problem was discovered and reported by Ethan Hsiao.

prereset doesn't bring link online if hardreset is about to happen and
nv_hardreset() may skip if conditions are not right so softreset may
be entered with non-working link status if the system firmware didn't
bring it up before entering OS code which can happen during resume.
This patch makes nv_hardreset() to bring up the link if it's skipping
reset.

The destination keyring specified to request_key() and co. is made available to
the process that instantiates the key (the slave process started by
/sbin/request-key typically). This is passed in the request_key_auth struct as
the dest_keyring member.
keyctl_instantiate_key and keyctl_negate_key() call get_instantiation_keyring()
to get the keyring to attach the newly constructed key to at the end of
instantiation. This may be given a specific keyring into which a link will be
made later, or it may be asked to find the keyring passed to request_key(). In
the former case, it returns a keyring with the refcount incremented by
lookup_user_key(); in the latter case, it returns the keyring from the
request_key_auth struct - and does _not_ increment the refcount.
The latter case will eventually result in an oops when the keyring prematurely
runs out of references and gets destroyed. The effect may take some time to
show up as the key is destroyed lazily.
To fix this, the keyring returned by get_instantiation_keyring() must always
have its refcount incremented, no matter where it comes from.
This can be tested by setting /etc/request-key.conf to:
#OP TYPE DESCRIPTION CALLOUT INFO PROGRAM ARG1 ARG2 ARG3 ...
#====== ======= =============== =============== ===============================
create * test:* * |/bin/false %u %g %d %{user:_display}
negate * * * /bin/keyctl negate %k 10 @u
and then doing:
keyctl add user _display aaaaaaaa @u
while keyctl request2 user test:x test:x @u &&
keyctl list @u;
do
keyctl request2 user test:x test:x @u;
sleep 31;
keyctl list @u;
done
which will oops eventually. Changing the negate line to have @u rather than
%S at the end is important as that forces the latter case by passing a special
keyring ID rather than an actual keyring ID.

Call compat_unimap_ioctl, not do_unimap_ioctl.
This was broken by commit e9216651.
The compat_unimap_ioctl was originally called do_unimap_ioctl in
fs/compat_ioctl.h which got moved to drivers/char/vt_ioctl.c.
In that patch, the caller was not updated and consequently called
the native handler.

There is a possible race condition in clockdomain
code handling hw supported idle transitions.
When multiple autodeps dependencies are being added
or removed, a transition of still remaining dependent
powerdomain can result in false readings of the
state counter. This is especially fatal for off mode
state counter, as it could result in a driver not
noticing a context loss.
Fixed by disabling hw supported state transitions
when autodeps are being changed.
