[SCSI] iscsi_tcp: fix padding, data digests, and IO at weird offsets
iscsi_tcp calculates padding by using the expected transfer length. This
has the problem where if we have immediate data = no and initial R2T =
yes, and the transfer length ended up needing padding then we send:
1. header
2. padding which should have gone after data
3. data
Besides this bug, we also assume the target will always ask for nice
transfer lengths and the first burst length will always be a nice value.
As far as I can tell form the RFC this is not a requirement. It would be
silly to do this, but if someone did it we will end doing bad things.
Finally the last bug in that bit of code is in our handling of the
recalculation of data digests when we do not send a whole iscsi_buf in
one try. The bug here is that we call crypto_digest_final on a
iscsi_sendpage error, then when we send the rest of the iscsi_buf, we
doiscsi_data_digest_init and this causes the previous data digest to be
lost.
And to make matters worse, some of these bugs are replicated over and
over and over again for immediate data, solicited data and unsolicited
data. So the attached patch made over the iscsi git tree (see
kernel.org/git for details) which I updated today to include the patches
I said I merged, consolidates the sending of data, padding and digests
and calculation of data digests and fixes the above bugs.

On systems that have cpusets configured in their kernel, but that aren't
actively using cpusets (for some distros, this covers the majority of
systems) all tasks end up in the top cpuset.
If that system does support CPU hotplug, then these tasks cannot make use
of CPUs that are added after system boot, because the CPUs are not allowed
in the top cpuset. This is a surprising regression over earlier kernels
that didn't have cpusets enabled.
In order to keep the behaviour of cpusets consistent between systems
actively making use of them and systems not using them, this patch changes
the behaviour of the 'cpus' file in the top (root) cpuset, making it read
only, and making it automatically track the value of cpu_online_map. Thus
tasks in the top cpuset will have automatic use of hot plugged CPUs allowed

1) When we allocated last fragment in ufs_truncate, we read page, check
if block mapped to address, and if not trying to allocate it. This is
wrong behaviour, fragment may be NOT allocated, but mapped, this
happened because of "block map" function not checked allocated fragment
or not, it just take address of the first fragment in the block, add
offset of fragment and return result, this is correct behaviour in
almost all situation except call from ufs_truncate.
2) Almost all implementation of UFS, which I can investigate have such
"defect": if you have full disk, and try truncate file, for example 3GB
to 2MB, and have hole in this region, truncate return -ENOSPC. I tried
evade from this problem, but "block allocation" algorithm is tied to
right value of i_lastfrag, and fix of this corner case may slow down of
ordinaries scenarios, so this patch makes behavior of "truncate"
operations similar to what other UFS implementations do.
On UFS, this scenario:
open(O_TRUNC)
lseek(1024 * 1024 * 80)
write("A")
lseek(1024 * 2)
write("A")
may cause access to invalid address.
This happened because of "goal" is calculated in wrong way in block
allocation path, as I see this problem exists also in 2.4.
We use construction like this i_data[lastfrag], i_data array of pointers to
direct blocks, indirect and so on, it has ceratain size ~20 elements, and
lastfrag may have value for example 40000.
Also this patch fixes related to handling such scenario issues, wrong
zeroing metadata, in case of block(not fragment) allocation, and wrong goal

OK, I'm having a look here; its all new to me so bear with me.
blkdev_open() calls
do_open(bdev, ...,BD_MUTEX_NORMAL) and takes
mutex_lock_nested(&bdev->bd_mutex, BD_MUTEX_NORMAL)
then something fails, and we're thrown to:
out_first: where
if (bdev != bdev->bd_contains)
blkdev_put(bdev->bd_contains) which is
__blkdev_put(bdev->bd_contains, BD_MUTEX_NORMAL) which does
mutex_lock_nested(&bdev->bd_contains->bd_mutex, BD_MUTEX_NORMAL) <--- lockdep trigger
When going to out_first, dbev->bd_contains is either bdev or whole, and
since we take the branch it must be whole. So it seems to me the
following patch would be the right one:

[PATCH] dm: Fix deadlock under high i/o load in raid1 setup.
On an nForce4-equipped machine with two SATA disk in raid1 setup using dmraid,
we experienced frequent deadlock of the system under high i/o load. 'cat
/dev/zero > ~/zero' was the most reliable way to reproduce them: Randomly
after a few GB, 'cp' would be left in 'D' state along with kjournald and
kmirrord. The functions cp and kjournald were blocked in did vary, but
kmirrord's wchan always pointed to 'mempool_alloc()'. We've seen this pattern
on 2.6.15 and 2.6.17 kernels. http://lkml.org/lkml/2005/4/20/142 indicates
that this problem has been around even before.
So much for the facts, here's my interpretation: mempool_alloc() first tries
to atomically allocate the requested memory, or falls back to hand out
preallocated chunks from the mempool. If both fail, it puts the calling
process (kmirrord in this case) on a private waitqueue until somebody refills
the pool. Where the only 'somebody' is kmirrord itself, so we have a
deadlock.
I worked around this problem by falling back to a (blocking) kmalloc when
before kmirrord would have ended up on the waitqueue. This defeats part of
the benefits of using the mempool, but at least keeps the system running. And
it could be done with a two-line change. Note that mempool_alloc() clears the
GFP_NOIO flag internally, and only uses it to decide whether to wait or return
an error if immediate allocation fails, so the attached patch doesn't change
behaviour in the non-deadlocking case. Path is against current git
(2.6.18-rc4), but should apply to earlier versions as well. I've tested on
2.6.15, where this patch makes the difference between random lockup and a
stable system.

[PATCH] hwmon: abituguru timeout fixes
This patch contains 2 sets of fixes for the abituguru:
1) Much improved timeout handling, drasticly reducing the amount of
timeout errors on some motherboards
2) Fix the exit paths in the bank1 sensor type detect code to always
restore the original settings even on an error. Without this our
special test settings could remain seriously confusing the system
BIOS's setup menu.
Both are very much related and are must haves, to avoid messing up the
uguru CMOS settings.
Detailed changes:
- Much improved timeout / wait for status handling. Many thanks to Sunil
Kumar, for all his testing, ideas and patches! The code now first busy
waits, polling the uguru for the expected status as this usually
succeeds pretty quickly (within 90 reads). To avoid unnecessary CPU burn
in timeout conditions, the amount of busy waiting has been halved from
previous versions (120 tries instead of 250). This is not a problem,
because this version goes to sleep after 120 attemps for 1 jiffy and
then tries again, it does this sleep and try again 5 times before
finally giving up. This (almost?) completly removes the timeout errors
some people have seen regulary. Apparently some older uguru versions
sometimes are distracted for a (relatively) long time. This solves this.
- These timeout errors not only occur in the sending address part of
reading the uguru but also in the wait for read state, so errors in
this state are now handled as retryable just like send address state
errors and are only logged and reported to userspace if 3 executive
tries fail.
- Fix a very nasty bug in the bank1 sensor type detection code, where it
would not restore the original settings in any of the error paths!
- Since not successfully restoring the original settings can seriously
confuse the system BIOS (hang when entering the relevant setup menu),
we now try restoring them 3 times before giving up.

NFS: Fix issue with EIO on NFS read
The problem is that we may be caching writes that would extend the file and
create a hole in the region that we are reading. In this case, we need to
detect the eof from the server, ensure that we zero out the pages that
are part of the hole and mark them as up to date.

LOCKD: Fix a deadlock in nlm_traverse_files()
nlm_traverse_files() is not allowed to hold the nlm_file_mutex while calling
nlm_inspect file, since it may end up calling nlm_release_file() when
releaseing the blocks.
