A useful test case for error recovery is multiple,
consecutive medium errors. When scsi_debug is started
with "opts=2" a MEDIUM ERROR is generated when block
0x1234 (4660) is read. The patch extends that to
10 consecutive blocks from 0x1234 (i.e. blocks 4660 to
4669 inclusive).

BTW Change /dev/sg1 (bsg device works just as well) to
/dev/sdb to see why, with faulty media, you do not want
to use the block layer interface. Reason: time block
layer takes to do useless retries and collateral damage
to data in its 4 KB blocks (O_DIRECT mitigates the
latter).
ChangeLog:
- extend opts=2 medium error generation at block
0x1234 to 10 consecutive blocks (i.e. blocks
0x1234 to 0x123d).

When the lower device has offloading capabilities, the packets checksums
are not computed. That leads to have any macvlan port in bridge mode to
not work because the packets are dropped due to a bad checksum.
If the macvlan is in bridge mode, the packet is forwarded to another
macvlan port and reach the network stack where it looks for a checksum
but this one was not computed due to the offloading of the lower device.
In this case, we have to set the packet with CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY
when it is forwarded to a bridged port and restore the previous value of
ip_summed when the packet goes to the lowerdev.

I think this stems from a misunderstanding of how the ata error handler
works. ata_scsi_cmd_error_handler() gets called with a passed in list
of commands to handle. However, that list may still not be empty when
it exits. The command ata_scsi_port_error_handler() must be called
(which takes no list) before the list will be completely emptied. This
bites the sas error handler because the two are called from different
functions and the original list has gone out of scope before
ata_scsi_port_error_handler() is called. leading to some commands
dangling on bare stack, which is a potential memory corruption issue.
Fix this by manually deleting all outstanding commands from the on-stack
list before it goes out of scope.

The hibernate image size autotuning mechanism sets the default
image size to 5/2 of the total system RAM, but it is reported
that on some systems device drivers allocate substantial
amounts of memory during suspend and the creation of the image
fails as a result (too little memory is preallocated).
Modify the autotuning mechanism to use 1/3 instead of 2/5 of RAM
as the default image size, which is reported to be sufficient for
the affected systems.

Some subsystems need to carry out suspend/resume and shutdown
operations with one CPU on-line and interrupts disabled. The only
way to register such operations is to define a sysdev class and
a sysdev specifically for this purpose which is cumbersome and
inefficient. Moreover, the arguments taken by sysdev suspend,
resume and shutdown callbacks are practically never necessary.
For this reason, introduce a simpler interface allowing subsystems
to register operations to be executed very late during system suspend
and shutdown and very early during resume in the form of
strcut syscore_ops objects.

The code handling system-wide power transitions (eg. suspend-to-RAM)
can in theory execute callbacks provided by the device's bus type,
device type and class in each phase of the power transition. In
turn, the runtime PM core code only calls one of those callbacks at
a time, preferring bus type callbacks to device type or class
callbacks and device type callbacks to class callbacks.
It seems reasonable to make them both behave in the same way in that
respect. Moreover, even though a device may belong to two subsystems
(eg. bus type and device class) simultaneously, in practice power
management callbacks for system-wide power transitions are always
provided by only one of them (ie. if the bus type callbacks are
defined, the device class ones are not and vice versa). Thus it is
possible to modify the code handling system-wide power transitions
so that it follows the core runtime PM code (ie. treats the
subsystem callbacks as mutually exclusive).
On the other hand, the core runtime PM code will choose to execute,
for example, a runtime suspend callback provided by the device type
even if the bus type's struct dev_pm_ops object exists, but the
runtime_suspend pointer in it happens to be NULL. This is confusing,
because it may lead to the execution of callbacks from different
subsystems during different operations (eg. the bus type suspend
callback may be executed during runtime suspend of the device, while
the device type callback will be executed during system suspend).
Make all of the power management code treat subsystem callbacks in
a consistent way, such that:
(1) If the device's type is defined (eg. dev->type is not NULL)
and its pm pointer is not NULL, the callbacks from dev->type->pm
will be used.
(2) If dev->type is NULL or dev->type->pm is NULL, but the device's
class is defined (eg. dev->class is not NULL) and its pm pointer
is not NULL, the callbacks from dev->class->pm will be used.
(3) If dev->type is NULL or dev->type->pm is NULL and dev->class is
NULL or dev->class->pm is NULL, the callbacks from dev->bus->pm
will be used provided that both dev->bus and dev->bus->pm are
not NULL.

The platform bus type is often used to handle Systems-on-a-Chip (SoC)
where all devices are represented by objects of type struct
platform_device. In those cases the same "platform" device driver
may be used with multiple different system configurations, but the
actions needed to put the devices it handles into a low-power state
and back into the full-power state may depend on the design of the
given SoC. The driver, however, cannot possibly include all the
information necessary for the power management of its device on all
the systems it is used with. Moreover, the device hierarchy in its
current form also is not suitable for representing this kind of
information.
The patch below attempts to address this problem by introducing
objects of type struct dev_power_domain that can be used for
representing power domains within a SoC. Every struct
dev_power_domain object provides a sets of device power
management callbacks that can be used to perform what's needed for
device power management in addition to the operations carried out by
the device's driver and subsystem.
Namely, if a struct dev_power_domain object is pointed to by the
pwr_domain field in a struct device, the callbacks provided by its
ops member will be executed in addition to the corresponding
callbacks provided by the device's subsystem and driver during all
power transitions.

The variable pm_flags is used to prevent APM from being enabled
along with ACPI, which would lead to problems. However, acpi_init()
is always called before apm_init() and after acpi_init() has
returned, it is known whether or not ACPI will be used. Namely, if
acpi_disabled is not set after acpi_init() has returned, this means
that ACPI is enabled. Thus, it is sufficient to check acpi_disabled
in apm_init() to prevent APM from being enabled in parallel with
ACPI.

The dpm_prepare() function increments the runtime PM reference
counters of all devices to prevent pm_runtime_suspend() from
executing subsystem-level callbacks. However, this was supposed to
guard against a specific race condition that cannot happen, because
the power management workqueue is freezable, so pm_runtime_suspend()
can only be called synchronously during system suspend and we can
rely on subsystems and device drivers to avoid doing that
unnecessarily.
Make dpm_prepare() drop the runtime PM reference to each device
after making sure that runtime resume is not pending for it.

From the users' point of view CONFIG_PM is really only used for
making it possible to set CONFIG_SUSPEND, CONFIG_HIBERNATION,
CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME and (surprisingly enough) CONFIG_XEN_SAVE_RESTORE
(CONFIG_PM_OPP also depends on CONFIG_PM, but quite artificially).
However, both CONFIG_SUSPEND and CONFIG_HIBERNATION require platform
support (independent of CONFIG_PM) and it is not quite obvious that
CONFIG_PM has to be set for CONFIG_XEN_SAVE_RESTORE to be available.
Thus, from the users' point of view, it would be more logical to
automatically select CONFIG_PM if any of the above options depending
on it are set.
Make CONFIG_PM depend on (CONFIG_PM_SLEEP || CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME),
which will cause it to be selected when any of CONFIG_SUSPEND,
CONFIG_HIBERNATION, CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME, CONFIG_XEN_SAVE_RESTORE is
set and will clarify its meaning.

Currently, wakeup sysfs attributes are created for all devices,
regardless of whether or not they are wakeup-capable. This is
excessive and complicates wakeup device identification from user
space (i.e. to identify wakeup-capable devices user space has to read
/sys/devices/.../power/wakeup for all devices and see if they are not
empty).
Fix this issue by avoiding to create wakeup sysfs files for devices
that cannot wake up the system from sleep states (i.e. whose
power.can_wakeup flags are unset during registration) and modify
device_set_wakeup_capable() so that it adds (or removes) the relevant
sysfs attributes if a device's wakeup capability status is changed.

Since pm_save_wakeup_count() has just been changed to clear
events_check_enabled unconditionally before checking if there are
any new wakeup events registered since the last read from
/sys/power/wakeup_count, the detection of wakeup events during
suspend may be disabled, after it's been enabled, by writing a
"wrong" value back to /sys/power/wakeup_count. For this reason,
it is not necessary to update events_check_enabled in
pm_get_wakeup_count() any more.

According to Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-power, the
/sys/power/wakeup_count interface should only make the kernel react
to wakeup events during suspend if the last write to it has been
successful. However, if /sys/power/wakeup_count is written to two
times in a row, where the first write is successful and the second
is not, the kernel will still react to wakeup events during suspend
due to a bug in pm_save_wakeup_count().
Fix the bug by making pm_save_wakeup_count() clear
events_check_enabled unconditionally before checking if there are
any new wakeup events registered since the previous read from

The memory barrier in wakeup_source_deactivate() is supposed to
prevent the callers of pm_wakeup_pending() and pm_get_wakeup_count()
from seeing the new value of events_in_progress (0, in particular)
and the old value of event_count at the same time. However, if
wakeup_source_deactivate() is executed by CPU0 and, for instance,
pm_wakeup_pending() is executed by CPU1, where both processors can
reorder operations, the memory barrier in wakeup_source_deactivate()
doesn't affect CPU1 which can reorder reads. In that case CPU1 may
very well decide to fetch event_count before it's modified and
events_in_progress after it's been updated, so pm_wakeup_pending()
may fail to detect a wakeup event. This issue can be addressed by
using a single atomic variable to store both events_in_progress
and event_count, so that they can be updated together in a single
atomic operation.

SBC3r26 contains many changes to the Logical Block Provisioning
interfaces (formerly known as Thin Provisioning ditto). This patch
implements support for both the old and new schemes using the same
heuristic as before (whether the LBP VPD page is present).
The new code also allows the provisioning mode (i.e. choice of command)
to be overridden on a per-device basis via sysfs. Two additional modes
are supported in this version:
- WRITE SAME(10) with the UNMAP bit set
- WRITE SAME(10) without the UNMAP bit set. This allows us to support
devices that predate the TP/LBP enhancements in SBC3 and which work
by way zero-detection
Switching between modes has been consolidated in a helper function that
also updates the block layer topology according to the limitations of
the chosen command.
I experimented with trying WRITE SAME(16) if UNMAP fails, WRITE SAME(10)
if WRITE SAME(16) fails, etc. but found several devices that got
cranky. So for now we'll disable discard if one of the commands
fail. The user still has the option of selecting a different mode in
sysfs.
