b18268fc63 [SCSI] aacraid: improve queue balancing
The adapter queue is divided up equally to all the arrays to prevent
command starvation to any individual array. On the other hand,
physical targets are only granted a queue depth of one each. The code
prior to this patch used to deal with the incremental discovery of
targets, but the driver knows how many arrays are present prior to the
scan so this knowledge is used to generate a better estimate for the
queue depth.

Remove the capability of 'physical=0' from preventing access to the
class of adapters that have the RAID/SCSI mode of operation since none
of the physicals on the SCSI channel are candidates ever for an array.

As always, the user can override this default queue depth policy by
making the appropriate adjustments utilizing sysfs.

b6ef70f33c [SCSI] aacraid: OS panic after Adapter panic (hardening).
In experiments in the lab we managed to trigger an Adapter firmware
panic (BlinkLED) coincidentally while several pass-through ioctl
command from the management software were outstanding on a bug only
present on a class of RAID Adapters that require a hardware reset
rather than a commanded reset. The net result was an attempt to time
out the management software command as if it came from the SCSI layer
resulting in an OS panic.

Adapters that use commanded reset, management commands are returned
failed by the Adapter correctly. The adapter firmware panic that
resulted in this condition was also resolved, and there were no
adapters in the field with this specific firmware bug so we do not
expect any field reports. This is a rare or unlikely corner condition,
and no reports have ever been forwarded from the field.

a3940da5e6 [SCSI] aacraid: fix big endian issues
Big endian systems issues discovered in the aacraid driver. Somewhat
reverses a patch from November 7th of last year that removed swap
operations because they formerly were being assigned to an u8 array
when they should have been assigned to an le32 array.

This patch is largely inert for any little endian processor
architecture. It resolves a bug in delivering the BlinkLED AIF event
to registered applications when the adapter or associated hardware was
reset due to ill health. A rare corner case occurrence, also largely
unnoticed by any as it was a new (untested!) feature.

9b161a4d3e [SCSI] scsi_transport_spi: convert to attribute groups
This conversion makes full use of the is_visible() callback on attribute
groups.  Now, each device appears only with its capability flags in the
transport class directory.  Previously each device appeared with the
capability of the host, so this is a functionality improvement.
Converting to attribute groups allows us to sweep away most of the home
grown #defines that were effectively doing the same thing.

While trying to convert the SPI transport class to attribute groups, I
discovered that we don't actually have any transport configure points
for either the target or the host.  This patch adds these missing

the target one tries to be more clever and add it after devices may have
been placed on the target (so the device configure will have set up the

d0ad3bc97c [SCSI] libata: fix corruption induced by relaxed DMA alignment in SCSI
Hugh Dickens noticed that SMART commands issued from user space can
end up corupting memory.  The problem occurs if the buffer used to
read data spans two pages.  The reason is that the PIO sector routines
in libata are expecting physically contiguous pages when they do
sector operations, so the left overs on the second page go into the
next physically adjacent page rather than the next page in the sg
mapping.

Fix this by enforcing strict 512 byte alignment on all buffers from
userspace.

4c93566e2a [TULIP] DMFE: Fix SROM parsing regression.
Changeset 16b110c3fd (dmfe warning fix)
bothed up the offsets read from the SROM so that it doesn't read the
same datums it used to.

The change made transformations like turning:

	"srom + 34"

into

	"(__le32 *)srom + 34/4"

which doesn't work because 4 does not divide evenly
into 34 so we're using a different pointer offset
than in the original code.

I've changed theses cases in dmfe_parse_srom() to
consistently use "(type *)(srom + offset)" preserving
the offsets from the original code.

c729072459 ata_piix: implement SIDPR SCR access
For ICH8, SCRs can be accessed using index and data register pair
located at BAR 5.  This patch implements support for it such that PHY
status, errors and hardreset are available for those controllers.

This is the only case where two devices on a PATA channel have access
to SCRs and creates a unique problem of mapping two SCRs to one link.
Note that this is different from PMP case in that they aren't quite
separate links - e.g. softreset resets both devices.

This problem is worked around by merging the SCR values.  To upper
layer, it looks like there is a single link with one set of SCRs but
with two devices.  This works well enough for PHY event, error
reporting and hardreset.

Supporting hardreset is important because in rare cases SATA devices
fail to recover without it after PHY errors.

This patch converts ata_piix to use two step prepare - activate

conversion brings the happy side effect of enabling PCI device before
accessing PCI configuration registers.  Other than that, there

c5038fc05d libata/pata_it821x: Improve handling of poorly compatible emulations
Some it821x RAID firmwares return 0 for the err return off both devices.
A similar issue occurs with the slave returning 0 not 1 if you plug a
gigabyte sata ramdisk into a controller that fakes two SATA ports as
master/slave on an SFF channel.

The patch does the following

- Allow the 'failed diagnostics' case on both master and slave
- Move the HORKAGE_DIAGNOSTIC check after ->dev_config

This second change also allows IT821x to fix up a problem where we report
drive diagnostic failures when in fact the drive is fine but the
microcontroller firmware doesn't appear to get it right. IT821x clears
the flag again to avoid giving the user bogus warnings about their disk.

The other IT821x change is a bit ugly, we slightly abuse the cable type
hook to fiddle with the identify data for the devices. We could add a new
hook for this but as we have only one offender and no more seeming likely
it seems better to keep libata-core clean.

Please let this sit in -mm briefly, just in case the relaxed checking
breaks some other emulated interface.

0bcc65ad78 libata: make qc->nbytes include extra buffers
qc->nbytes didn't use to include extra buffers setup by libata core
layer and my be odd.  This patch makes qc->nbytes include any extra
buffers setup by libata core layer and guaranteed to be aligned on 4
byte boundary.

This value is to be used to program the host controller.  As this
represents the actual length of buffer available to the controller and
the controller must be able to deal with short transfers for ATAPI
commands which can transfer variable length, this shouldn't break any
controllers while making problems like rounding-down and controllers
choking up on odd transfer bytes much less likely.

The unmodified value is stored in new field qc->raw_nbytes.
