ipr: Fix regression when loading firmware

2016-02-26T22:26:02+00:00

Commit d63c7dd5bcb9 ("ipr: Fix out-of-bounds null overwrite") removed
the end of line handling when storing the update_fw sysfs attribute.
This changed the userpace API because it started refusing writes
terminated by a line feed, which broke the update tools we already have.

This patch re-adds that handling, so both a write terminated by a line
feed or not can make it through with the update.

Pull rdma updates from Doug Ledford:
 "Initial roundup of 4.5 merge window patches

   - Remove usage of ib_query_device and instead store attributes in
     ib_device struct

   - Move iopoll out of block and into lib, rename to irqpoll, and use
     in several places in the rdma stack as our new completion queue
     polling library mechanism.  Update the other block drivers that
     already used iopoll to use the new mechanism too.

   - Replace the per-entry GID table locks with a single GID table lock

   - IPoIB multicast cleanup

   - Cleanups to the IB MR facility

   - Add support for 64bit extended IB counters

   - Fix for netlink oops while parsing RDMA nl messages

   - RoCEv2 support for the core IB code

   - mlx4 RoCEv2 support

   - mlx5 RoCEv2 support

   - Cross Channel support for mlx5

   - Timestamp support for mlx5

   - Atomic support for mlx5

   - Raw QP support for mlx5

   - MAINTAINERS update for mlx4/mlx5

   - Misc ocrdma, qib, nes, usNIC, cxgb3, cxgb4, mlx4, mlx5 updates

   - Add support for remote invalidate to the iSER driver (pushed
     through the RDMA tree due to dependencies, acknowledged by nab)

   - Update to NFSoRDMA (pushed through the RDMA tree due to
     dependencies, acknowledged by Bruce)"

ipr: Fix out-of-bounds null overwrite

2016-01-08T02:51:19+00:00

Return value of snprintf is not bound by size value, 2nd argument.
(https://www.kernel.org/doc/htmldocs/kernel-api/API-snprintf.html).
Return value is number of printed chars, can be larger than 2nd
argument.  Therefore, it can write null byte out of bounds ofbuffer.
Since snprintf puts null, it does not need to put additional null byte.

irq_poll: fold irq_poll_sched_prep into irq_poll_sched

There is no good reason to keep them apart, and this makes using the API

irq_poll: don't disable new irq_poll instances

2015-12-11T19:52:25+00:00

There is no good reason to start out disabled - drivers can control if
the poll instance can be scheduled by simply not scheduling it yet.

scsi: use host wide tags by default

2015-11-10T01:11:57+00:00

This patch changes the !blk-mq path to the same defaults as the blk-mq
I/O path by always enabling block tagging, and always using host wide
tags.  We've had blk-mq available for a few releases so bugs with
this mode should have been ironed out, and this ensures we get better
coverage of over tagging setup over different configs.

ipr: Issue Configure Cache Parameters command.

2015-11-10T00:32:08+00:00

Some new adapters require a special Configure Cache Parameters command
to enable the adapter write cache, so send this during the adapter
initialization if the adapter requires it.

ipr: Inquiry IOA page 0xC4 during initialization.

2015-11-10T00:31:37+00:00

Add an IOA Inquiry command for Page 0xC4 during IOA initialization to
collect cache capabilities, particularly to check if Sync IOA Write
Cache is supported.

Inquiry will happen right after Cap Inquiry on page 0xD0; and will
execute only if the "Supported Pages" field in Inquiry Page 0x0 shows
support for Page 0xC4.  Otherwise, assume Sync IOA Write Cache is
not supported.
