[PATCH] cciss: busy_initializing bug fix

2005-09-21T17:11:54+00:00

This patch fixes the problem Bjorn reported.  The busy_initializing flag
should have cleared before going into the for loop.

[PATCH] cciss: fix for DMA brokeness

2005-09-13T15:22:30+00:00

The CCISS driver seems to loose track of DMA mappings created by it's
fill_cmd() routine.  Neither callers of this routine are extracting the DMA
address created in order to do the unmap.

Instead, they simply try to unmap 0x0.  It's easy to see this problem on an
x86_64 system when using the "swiotlb=force" boot option.  In this case, the
driver is leaking resources of the swiotlb and not causing a sync of the
bounce buffer.

[PATCH] cciss: bug fix in cciss_remove_one

2005-09-13T15:22:30+00:00

This patch fixes a bug in cciss_remove_one.  A set of braces was missing for
the if statement causing an Oops on driver unload.

[PATCH] cciss: direct lookup for command completions

2005-09-13T15:22:30+00:00

This patch changes the way we complete commands.  In the old method when we
got a completion we searched our command list from the top until we find it.

This method uses a tag associated with each command (not SCSI command tagging)
to index us directly to the completed command.  This helps performance.

[PATCH] cciss: new disk register/deregister routines

2005-09-13T15:22:30+00:00

This patch removes a couple of functions dealing with configuration and
replaces them with new functions.  This implementation fixes some bugs
associated with the ACUXE.  It also allows a logical volume to be removed from
the middle without deleting all volumes behind it.

If a user has 5 logical volumes and decides he wants to reconfigure volume
number 3, he can now do that without removing volumes 4 & 5 first.  This code
has been tested in our labs against all application software.

[PATCH] cciss: busy_initializing flag

2005-09-13T15:22:29+00:00

This patch adds a flag called busy_initializing.  If there are multiple
controllers in a server AND the HP agents are running it's possible the agents
may try to poll a card that is still initializing if the driver is removed and
then added again.

[PATCH] cciss: new controller pci/subsystem ids

2005-09-13T15:22:29+00:00

This patch adds new PCI and subsystem ID's that finally made the spec.  It
also include a name change for one controller.  I know there's a lot of
duplicat names but the fw folks wanted this for the different implementations.

Even though the same ASIC is used it may be embedded on some platforms,
standup card in others, and a mezzanine in other servers.

[PATCH] drivers/block: fix-up schedule_timeout() usage

2005-09-10T17:06:38+00:00

Use schedule_timeout_{un,}interruptible() instead of
set_current_state()/schedule_timeout() to reduce kernel size.

[PATCH] cciss per disk queue

2005-07-28T15:39:01+00:00

This patch adds per disk queue functionality to cciss.  Sometime back I
submitted a patch but it looks like only part of what I needed.  In the 2.6
kernel if we have more than one logical volume the driver will Oops during
rmmod.  It seems all of the queues actually point back to the same queue.
So after deleting the first volume you hit a null pointer on the second
one.

This has been tested in our labs.  There is no difference in performance,
it just fixes the Oops.
