[PATCH] USB Storage: retry hard errors

2005-06-27T21:44:03+00:00

This patch started life as as527, and was rediffed by me.

Since the IDE interface doesn't convey much information about types of
errors, many USB-IDE adapters report all low-level errors with SK = 0x04,
which is supposed to be used only for non-recoverable errors.  As a result
the SCSI midlayer doesn't retry the command.  But quite often a retry
would succeed, whereas an unnecessary retry doesn't really hurt anything.

This patch uses a recently-implemented flag to tell the SCSI midlayer that
such hardware errors should be retried.

[PATCH] USB Storage: port reset on transport error

2005-06-27T21:44:03+00:00

This patch causes a port reset whenever there's a transport error or abort.
If that fails it reverts back to doing a mass-storage device reset.  It
started life as as497 and was rediffed by me.

This makes error recovery a lot quicker and more reliable.

[PATCH] USB Storage: endpoint toggles and reset delays

2005-06-27T21:44:02+00:00

This patch does two things to help reset recovery.  It started life as
as496 and was rediffed by me.

First, the patch checks the result of a CLEAR_HALT request and doesn't reset the
endpoint's data toggle unless the request succeeded.

Second, it reduces the timeout for a device reset from 20 seconds to 5
seconds.

If all goes well, then I've finally figured quilt out and this patch should
apply cleanly.

[PATCH] Cleanup patch for process freezing

2005-06-26T00:10:13+00:00

1. Establish a simple API for process freezing defined in linux/include/sched.h:

   frozen(process)		Check for frozen process
   freezing(process)		Check if a process is being frozen
   freeze(process)		Tell a process to freeze (go to refrigerator)
   thaw_process(process)	Restart process
   frozen_process(process)	Process is frozen now

2. Remove all references to PF_FREEZE and PF_FROZEN from all
   kernel sources except sched.h

3. Fix numerous locations where try_to_freeze is manually done by a driver

4. Remove the argument that is no longer necessary from two function calls.

5. Some whitespace cleanup

6. Clear potential race in refrigerator (provides an open window of PF_FREEZE
   cleared before setting PF_FROZEN, recalc_sigpending does not check
   PF_FROZEN).

This patch does not address the problem of freeze_processes() violating the rule
that a task may only modify its own flags by setting PF_FREEZE. This is not clean
in an SMP environment. freeze(process) is therefore not SMP safe!
