<id>240630e61870e62e39a97225048f9945848fa5f5</id>
<content type='text'>
There have been several reports of LPM related hard freezes about once
a day on multiple Lenovo 50 series models. Strange enough these reports
where not disk model specific as LPM issues usually are and some users
with the exact same disk + laptop where seeing them while other users
where not seeing these issues.

It turns out that enabling LPM triggers a firmware bug somewhere, which
has been fixed in later BIOS versions.

This commit adds a new ahci_broken_lpm() function and a new ATA_FLAG_NO_LPM
for dealing with this.

The ahci_broken_lpm() function contains DMI match info for the 4 models
which are known to be affected by this and the DMI BIOS date field for
known good BIOS versions. If the BIOS date is older then the one in the
table LPM will be disabled and a warning will be printed.

Note the BIOS dates are for known good versions, some older versions may
work too, but we don't know for sure, the table is using dates from BIOS
versions for which users have confirmed that upgrading to that version
makes the problem go away.

Unfortunately I've been unable to get hold of the reporter who reported
that BIOS version 2.35 fixed the problems on the W541 for him. I've been
able to verify the DMI_SYS_VENDOR and DMI_PRODUCT_VERSION from an older
dmidecode, but I don't know the exact BIOS date as reported in the DMI.
Lenovo keeps a changelog with dates in their release notes, but the
dates there are the release dates not the build dates which are in DMI.
So I've chosen to set the date to which we compare to one day past the
release date of the 2.34 BIOS. I plan to fix this with a follow up
commit once I've the necessary info.

<content type='text'>
The kzalloc() function has a 2-factor argument form, kcalloc(). This
patch replaces cases of:

        kzalloc(a * b, gfp)

with:
        kcalloc(a * b, gfp)

as well as handling cases of:

        kzalloc(a * b * c, gfp)

with:

        kzalloc(array3_size(a, b, c), gfp)

as it's slightly less ugly than:

        kzalloc_array(array_size(a, b), c, gfp)

This does, however, attempt to ignore constant size factors like:

        kzalloc(4 * 1024, gfp)

though any constants defined via macros get caught up in the conversion.

Any factors with a sizeof() of "unsigned char", "char", and "u8" were
dropped, since they're redundant.

The Coccinelle script used for this was:

Pull libata updates from Tejun Heo:

 - libata has always been limiting the maximum queue depth to 31, with
   one entry set aside mostly for historical reasons. This didn't use to
   make much difference but Jens found out that modern hard drives can
   actually perform measurably better with the extra one queue depth.
   Jens updated libata core so that it can make use of full 32 queue

 - Damien updated command retry logic in error handling so that it
   doesn't unnecessarily retry when upper layer (SCSI) is gonna handle
   them

Pull libata updates from Tejun Heo:

 - libata has always been limiting the maximum queue depth to 31, with
   one entry set aside mostly for historical reasons. This didn't use to
   make much difference but Jens found out that modern hard drives can
   actually perform measurably better with the extra one queue depth.
   Jens updated libata core so that it can make use of full 32 queue
   depth

<title>libata: Drop SanDisk SD7UB3Q*G1001 NOLPM quirk</title>

Commit 184add2ca23c ("libata: Apply NOLPM quirk for SanDisk
SD7UB3Q*G1001 SSDs") disabled LPM for SanDisk SD7UB3Q*G1001 SSDs.

This has lead to several reports of users of that SSD where LPM
was working fine and who know have a significantly increased idle
power consumption on their laptops.

Likely there is another problem on the T450s from the original
reporter which gets exposed by the uncore reaching deeper sleep
states (higher PC-states) due to LPM being enabled. The problem as
reported, a hardfreeze about once a day, already did not sound like
it would be caused by LPM and the reports of the SSD working fine
confirm this. The original reporter is ok with dropping the quirk.

A X250 user has reported the same hard freeze problem and for him
the problem went away after unrelated updates, I suspect some GPU
driver stack changes fixed things.

TL;DR: The original reporters problem were triggered by LPM but not
an LPM issue, so drop the quirk for the SSD in question.

<title>libata: blacklist Micron 500IT SSD with MU01 firmware</title>

While whitelisting Micron M500DC drives, the tweaked blacklist entry
enabled queued TRIM from M500IT variants also. But these do not support
queued TRIM. And while using those SSDs with the latest kernel we have
seen errors and even the partition table getting corrupted.

Some part from the dmesg:

[  121.204559] print_req_error: I/O error, dev sda, sector 272512

After few reboots with these errors, and the SSD is corrupted.
After blacklisting it, the errors are not seen and the SSD does not get
corrupted any more.

Bump the internal tag to 32, instead of stealing the last tag in
our regular command space. This works just fine, since we don't
actually need a separate hardware tag for this. Internal commands
cannot coexist with NCQ commands.

As a bonus, we get rid of the special casing of what tag to use
for the internal command.

This is in preparation for utilizing all 32 commands for normal IO.

Also make it return a bool, since that's what it does.
