linux-stable.git/drivers, branch v3.10.71 Linux kernel stable tree md/raid1: fix read balance when a drive is write-mostly. 2015-03-06T22:40:53+00:00 Tomáš Hodek tomas.hodek@volny.cz 2015-02-23T00:00:38+00:00 b581e762b1a452ac94d452117a6c953f4d011767 commit d1901ef099c38afd11add4cfb3312c02ef21ec4a upstream. When a drive is marked write-mostly it should only be the target of reads if there is no other option. This behaviour was broken by commit 9dedf60313fa4dddfd5b9b226a0ef12a512bf9dc md/raid1: read balance chooses idlest disk for SSD which causes a write-mostly device to be *preferred* is some cases. Restore correct behaviour by checking and setting best_dist_disk and best_pending_disk rather than best_disk. We only need to test one of these as they are both changed from -1 or >=0 at the same time. As we leave min_pending and best_dist unchanged, any non-write-mostly device will appear better than the write-mostly device.

commit d1901ef099c38afd11add4cfb3312c02ef21ec4a upstream.

When a drive is marked write-mostly it should only be the
target of reads if there is no other option.

This behaviour was broken by

commit 9dedf60313fa4dddfd5b9b226a0ef12a512bf9dc
    md/raid1: read balance chooses idlest disk for SSD

which causes a write-mostly device to be *preferred* is some cases.

Restore correct behaviour by checking and setting
best_dist_disk and best_pending_disk rather than best_disk.

We only need to test one of these as they are both changed
from -1 or >=0 at the same time.

As we leave min_pending and best_dist unchanged, any non-write-mostly
device will appear better than the write-mostly device.

md/raid5: Fix livelock when array is both resyncing and degraded. 2015-03-06T22:40:53+00:00 NeilBrown neilb@suse.de 2015-02-18T00:35:14+00:00 58f0e96a4358f164f3857ee0d609d1b75a3ccf7d commit 26ac107378c4742978216be1005b7291b799c7b2 upstream. Commit a7854487cd7128a30a7f4f5259de9f67d5efb95f: md: When RAID5 is dirty, force reconstruct-write instead of read-modify-write. Causes an RCW cycle to be forced even when the array is degraded. A degraded array cannot support RCW as that requires reading all data blocks, and one may be missing. Forcing an RCW when it is not possible causes a live-lock and the code spins, repeatedly deciding to do something that cannot succeed. So change the condition to only force RCW on non-degraded arrays.

This patch fixes the issue by creating the smallest DMA buffer with the size of ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN (or 32 in case ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN is smaller). This might be 32, 64 or even 128 bytes. The next three pools will have the size 128, 512 and 2048. In case the smallest pool is 128 bytes then we have only three pools instead of four (and zero the first entry in the array).

Added Little Endian support to vtpm module 2015-03-06T22:40:50+00:00 honclo honclo@imap.linux.ibm.com 2015-02-13T02:02:24+00:00 c213da80aa303730ca6d99a30f10043428c0e354 commit eb71f8a5e33fa1066fb92f0111ab366a341e1f6c upstream. The tpm_ibmvtpm module is affected by an unaligned access problem. ibmvtpm_crq_get_version failed with rc=-4 during boot when vTPM is enabled in Power partition, which supports both little endian and big endian modes. We added little endian support to fix this problem: 1) added cpu_to_be64 calls to ensure BE data is sent from an LE OS. 2) added be16_to_cpu and be32_to_cpu calls to make sure data received is in LE format on a LE OS.

commit eb71f8a5e33fa1066fb92f0111ab366a341e1f6c upstream.

The tpm_ibmvtpm module is affected by an unaligned access problem.
ibmvtpm_crq_get_version failed with rc=-4 during boot when vTPM is
enabled in Power partition, which supports both little endian and
big endian modes.

We added little endian support to fix this problem:
1) added cpu_to_be64 calls to ensure BE data is sent from an LE OS.
2) added be16_to_cpu and be32_to_cpu calls to make sure data received
   is in LE format on a LE OS.
