2007-10-30IPMI: fix comparison in demangle_device_idCorey Minyard

2007-10-30libata: implement and use ATA_QCFLAG_QUIETTejun Heo
Implement ATA_QCFLAG_QUIET which indicates that there's no need to report if the command fails with AC_ERR_DEV and set it for passthrough commands. Combined with previous changes, this now makes device errors for all direct commands reported directly to the issuer without going through EH actions and reporting. Note that EH is still invoked after non-IO device errors to determine the nature of the error and resume command execution (some controller requires special care after error to continue). It just performs default maintenance after error, examines what's going on, realizes that it's none of its business and reports the command failure without logging any error messages.

2007-10-30libata: stop being overjealous about non-IO commandsTejun Heo
libata EH always revalidated device and retried failed command after error except for ATAPI CCs. This is unnecessary and hinders with users issuing direct commands. This patch makes the following changes. * Make sata_sil24 not request ATA_EH_REVALIDATE on device errors. sil24 is the only driver which does this. All others let libata EH core code decide. * Don't request revalidation after device error of non-IO command. Revalidation doesn't really help anybody. As ATA_EH_REVALIDATE isn't set by default, there's no reason to clear it after sense data is read. Kill ATA_EH_REVALIDATE clearing code while at it. * Don't retry non-IO command after device error. Device has rejected the command. There's no point in retrying. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
2007-10-30libata: flush is an IO commandTejun Heo
ATA_QCFLAG_IO is used to mark commands which are used to perform regluar IO transfers via block layer. These commands are assumed to be valid and taken more seriously during error handling. Cache flush is used by regular IO path and necessary for data integrity. Mark it with ATA_QCFLAG_IO. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

2007-10-30sata_promise: ASIC PRD table bug workaround, take 2Mikael Pettersson
Second-generation Promise SATA controllers have an ASIC bug which can trigger if the last PRD entry is larger than 164 bytes, resulting in intermittent errors and possible data corruption. Work around this by replacing calls to ata_qc_prep() with a private version that fills the PRD, checks the size of the last entry, and if necessary splits it to avoid the bug. Also reduce sg_tablesize by 1 to accommodate the new entry. Tested on the second-generation SATA300 TX4 and SATA300 TX2plus, and the first-generation PDC20378. Thanks to Alexander Sabourenkov for verifying the bug by studying the vendor driver, and for writing the initial patch upon which this one is based.

2007-10-30[TCP]: Saner thash_entries default with much memory.Jean Delvare
On systems with a very large amount of memory, the heuristics in alloc_large_system_hash() result in a very large TCP established hash table: 16 millions of entries for a 128 GB ia64 system. This makes reading from /proc/net/tcp pretty slow (well over a second) and as a result netstat is slow on these machines. I know that /proc/net/tcp is deprecated in favor of tcp_diag, however at the moment netstat only knows of the former. I am skeptical that such a large TCP established hash is often needed. Just because a system has a lot of memory doesn't imply that it will have several millions of concurrent TCP connections. Thus I believe that we should put an arbitrary high limit to the size of the TCP established hash by default. Users who really need a bigger hash can always use the thash_entries boot parameter to get more. I propose 2 millions of entries as the arbitrary high limit. This makes /proc/net/tcp reasonably fast on the system in question (0.2 s) while being still large enough for me to be confident that network performance won't suffer. This is just one way to limit the hash size, there are others; I am not familiar enough with the TCP code to decide which is best. Thus, I would welcome the proposals of alternatives. [ 2 million is still too large, thus I've modified the limit in the change to be '512 * 1024'. -DaveM ] Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <jdelvare@suse.de> Signed-off-by: David S.

Instead of using the default timeout of 3 minutes, this uses the timeout specific to the protocol used for the connection. The 3 minute timeout seems somewhat arbitrary (though I know it is used other places in the ipvs code) and when failing over it would be much nicer to use one of the configured timeout values.
