Most noteable part of this commit is the new local header file entry.h which contains all the function declarations of functions that get only called from asm code or are arch internal.

2008-02-19[S390] dasd: fix locking in __dasd_device_process_final_queueStefan Weinhuber
After setting the status of the cqr and releasing the lock for the block cqr queue, we call the cqr callback function, which will usually just trigger the dasd_block_tasklet. But when the tasklet is already running the cqr might be processed before we invoke the callback function. In rare cases the callback pointer may already be invalid by the time we want to call it, which will result in a panic. Solution: Call the callback function first and then release the lock.

2008-02-05[S390] dasd: fix panic caused by alias device offlineStefan Weinhuber
When an alias device is set offline while it is in use this may result in a panic in the cleanup part of the dasd_block_tasklet. The problem here is that there may exist some ccw requests that were originally created for the alias device and transferred to the base device when the alias was set offline. When these request are cleaned up later, the discipline pointer in the alias device may not be valid anymore. To fix this use the base device discipline to find the cleanup function.

2008-01-26[S390] dasd: add hyper PAV support to DASD device driver, part 1Stefan Weinhuber
Parallel access volumes (PAV) is a storage server feature, that allows to start multiple channel programs on the same DASD in parallel. It defines alias devices which can be used as alternative paths to the same disk. With the old base PAV support we only needed rudimentary functionality in the DASD device driver. As the mapping between base and alias devices was static, we just had to export an identifier (uid) and could leave the combining of devices to external layers like a device mapper multipath. Now hyper PAV removes the requirement to dedicate alias devices to specific base devices. Instead each alias devices can be combined with multiple base device on a per request basis. This requires full support by the DASD device driver as now each channel program itself has to identify the target base device. The changes to the dasd device driver and the ECKD discipline are: - Separate subchannel device representation (dasd_device) from block device representation (dasd_block). Only base devices are block devices. - Gather information about base and alias devices and possible combinations. - For each request decide which dasd_device should be used (base or alias) and build specific channel program. - Support summary unit checks, which allow the storage server to upgrade / downgrade between base and hyper PAV at runtime (support is mandatory).

2007-02-05[S390] ETR support.Martin Schwidefsky
This patch adds support for clock synchronization to an external time reference (ETR). The external time reference sends an oscillator signal and a synchronization signal every 2^20 microseconds to keep the TOD clocks of all connected servers in sync. For availability two ETR units can be connected to a machine. If the clock deviates for more than the sync-check tolerance all cpus get a machine check that indicates that the clock is out of sync. For the lovely details how to get the clock back in sync see the code below. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

2006-09-20[S390] dasd deadlock after state change pending interrupt.Martin Schwidefsky
The dasd_device_from_cdev function is called from interrupt context to get the struct dasd_device associated with a ccw device. The driver_data of the ccw device points to the dasd_devmap structure which contains the pointer to the dasd_device structure. The lock that protects the dasd_devmap structure is acquire with out irqsave. To prevent the deadlock in dasd_device_from_cdev if it is called from interrupt context the dependency to the dasd_devmap structure needs to be removed. Let the driver_data of the ccw device point to the dasd_device structure directly and use the ccw device lock to protect the access. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

2006-03-08[PATCH] s390: dasd partition detectionHorst Hummel
DASD allows to open a device as soon as gendisk is registered, which means the device is a fake device (capacity=0) and we do know nothing about blocksize and partitions at that point of time. In case the device is opened by someone, the bdev and inode creation is done with the fake device info and the following partition detection code is just using the wrong data. To avoid this modify the DASD state machine to make sure that the open is rejected until the device analysis is either finished or an unformatted device was detected.

2006-02-20[PATCH] s390: dasd reference countingPeter Oberparleiter
When using the dasd diag discipline, the base discipline module (eckd or fba) can be unloaded, even though the dasd driver requires both discipline modules (base and diag) to work correctly. Implement reference counting for both base and diag discipline modules in order to fix this.

2006-02-03[PATCH] s390: dasd extended error reporting moduleStefan Weinhuber
The DASD extended error reporting is a facility that allows to get detailed information about certain problems in the DASD I/O. This information can be used to implement fail-over applications that can recover these problems.
