Subject: linux-2.5.5-pre1


This is a _huge_ patch, mainly because it includes three big pending
things: the ALSA merge (which is much smaller in the BK tree than in the
patch, because a lot of them are due to renames), merging most of x86_64,
and merging some PPC patches.

Full changelog appended.

[PATCH] 2.5.4-pre6 apm compile fix

Here is the patch against 2.5.4. I have compiled this patch under
2.5.3, so it should still be OK.

This patch just resyncs the driver with 2.4.18-pre (which is what is
being testd by others). The only outstanding known problem is some
very strange interaction with VMWARE. But otherwise people seem
happy with the changes.

Original announcement to Dave Jones and Marcelo:

Update a couple of email addresses
Fix the idle handling (this is an improved version of the fix
that Alan Cox has in his -ac tree)
Notify user mode of suspend events before drivers (fix)
Make the idling percentage boot time configurable
Rename kapm-idled to kapmd

Credit to Andreas Steinmetz, Russell King, Thomas Hood and me.

More small updates to come.

[PATCH] Optimized UP preempt fix

I previously sent a patch by Mikael Pettersson to fix the UP+preempt
problem. It seems from your BK repository you have not yet merged it;
if so, this patch takes a different approach which is optimal, removing
the unneeded conditional altogether in the UP case. I have verified UP
and SMP are now correct. Patch is against 2.5.4, please apply.

[PATCH] drivers/char/pcwd.c

This patch to drivers/char/pcwd.c against 2.5.4 does two things:
a) Makes one code snippet more consistent with the rest of the code, and
b) Makes it possible for this code to actually work

Nearly the same patch against 2.4 was reviewed by Alan, and, well, the
maintainer seems to have disappeared. It's also looking like no one uses
this driver much either.

[PATCH] dma64_addr_t fix ups

This patch fixes up two places whre dma64_addr_t is used incorrectly.
Note that pci_dev->dma_mask and the second argument to
blk_queue_bounce_limit() are both u64, so the old types clearly are
wrong (besides, dma64_addr_t is supposed to be used only with the
pci_dac_*() routines, as per DaveM's earlier mail).

[PATCH] fix for elf coredump deadlock

This patch fixes a deadlock condition in the elf core dump that shows
on ia64 because ELF_CORE_COPY_REGS() needs to access user space (to
get a hold of the backing store of the stacked registers). Marcelo
already accepted this into 2.4.17.

in vgacon.c which isn't needed anymore.

[PATCH] discarded section problem

What should be happening with the references to the discarded .text.exit
section? I see a __devexit_p mentioned in Documentation/pci.txt, but it
hasn't been implemented except for down inside ieee1394.

In any case, I need something like the following in order to build with
pre-release binutils 2.12. If this sort of thing is acceptible I can
prepare a more comprehensive patch.

Do not panic on incorrect savelink entries (truncate on directory).
Currently we suppose these can be created if switching between kernels
with and without savelinks support.

[PATCH] 04-hash_autodetect_fix.diff

Correctly detect and print hash values, when manual hash detection is used.

<[email protected]> (02/02/11 1.286)
[PATCH] 05-corrupt_items_checks.diff

Do not panic when encountered item of unknown type, just print a warning.

<[email protected]> (02/02/11 1.287)
[PATCH] 06-kmalloc_cleanup.diff

Convert all the code to use reiserfs_{kmalloc,kfree}. Remove all extra
reiserfs_{kmalloc,kfree} overhead if CONFIG_REISERFS_CHECK is not set.

<[email protected]> (02/02/11 1.288)
[PATCH] 07-reiserfs-bitmap-journal-read-ahead.diff

Speed up reading of journal bitmaps. RAID users should notice significant
speedup when mounting reiserfs over self-rebuilding RAID arays.

<[email protected]> (02/02/11 1.289)
[PATCH] 08-truncate_update_mtime.diff

truncate now correctly sets mtime always. Before this fix, mtime was not
updated if truncated file was of zero length or if new filesize was bigger
then old.

[PATCH] BKL-free ext2_get_block()

Linus, I've got the first of BKL-removal ext2 patches ready to
go. It removes BKL from ext2_get_block() and guts of ext2_truncate().
The only place where we hold BKL on these paths is in dquot.c - probably
can be easily dealt with, but threading quota is a separate story.

Inode metadata (pointers to blocks, both in inode itself and in
indirect blocks, preallocation data and allocation goal) are protected
by rwlock - EXT2_I(inode)->i_meta_lock.

Next steps will involve threading the group descriptors and bitmaps
handling - lock_super() uses in ext2 are going to die. However, that's
a separate story - let's do that step-by-step.

I suspect that patch below will take care of almost all BKL contention
from ext2 - we still have BKL held over directory operations, but for regular
files that's it.

-EINVAL. Remove printk() as reasonable code is returned.
Set maximum file size limit on ncpfs to 4GB-1.

* fs/ncpfs/sock.c: Return correct error code when send() fails.

[PATCH] mmap can return incorrect errno

mmap currently sets errno to EINVAL when it should be ENOMEM.
SUS/POSIX states that ENOMEM should be returned when:

"MAP_FIXED was specified, and the range [addr, addr + len) exceeds
that allowed for the address space of a process; or if MAP_FIXED was
not specified and there is insufficient room in the address space to
effect the mapping."

The following patch (against 2.4.17) fixes this behaviour:

[PATCH] Update of USB input drivers to the latest versions

Now that the input core changes have made it into 2.5 I can finally
update the USB input drivers to their latest versions.

Here is a patch that does that.

In detail:

HID driver:
Fix a bug in descriptor parsing (array/variable),
namely visible with Logitech new joysticks and mice
Fix bugs in logical/physical min/max parsing
Fix bugs in exponent parsing
Remove workaround for low-speed devices with >8 byte
reports, fix this in a correct way (bigger irq
request)
Untangle some code (fetc_item())
Implement asynchronous input/output/feature report
reading and writing
Implement (hopefully) proper locking in the above
Implement support for devices with an output endpoint
Add some support functions for force feedback support
currently in development
Add entries to the debug dump code, including FF and
exponents
Add more mappings into the hid-input interface
Cleanups here and there

usbkbd driver:

Make LED URBS use GFP_ATOMIC, they'll be called from a
completion handler
Remove dependency on hid.h

usbmouse driver:

Just conversion to the new input core, minor cleanups

wacom driver:

Just conversion to the new input core.

a cleanup and a bugfix in the preemptive kernel:

- the PREEMPT_ACTIVE trick is not needed

- schedule() should check for need_resched, we might miss a
reschedule otherwise.

the cleanup also fixes the bug. The only reason why i kept
preempt_schedule() was to fix up p->state to TASK_RUNNING,
to make it possible to preempt from places that mark the
task TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE before adding the task to a waitqueue,
and thus a preemption in that small window could cause the
task to be removed from the runqueue erroneously.

<[email protected]> (02/02/12 1.293.2.4)
[PATCH] usb_set_interface: correct toggle reset

this is a patch to prevent usb_set_interface() from erroneously resetting
the toggles for all endpoints instead of only the affected ones from the
requested interface/altsetting. I've also added some missing parentheses
to related macros in usb.h as I prefered not to take special care for
nasty side-effects ;-)

Patch below was created against 2.4.18-pre9 (with some lines of offset it
applies to 2.5.4-pre5 as well).

Tested in multi-interface configuration to provide evidence it:
* correctly identifies the affected endpoints and resets the toggles
* doesn't touch endpoints from other interfaces
* provides correct handling of shared EP0
* solves an issue I had with 2.4.18-pre9 where setting one interface
occasionally caused transfers on other interface to hang due to lost
toggle synchronisation

Despite being a pure bugfix, well localized and (IMHO) pretty obviously
correct wrt. USB-spec, I'd like to suggest including this in early
2.4.19-pre. Just in case some existing driver would somehow workaround
the currently wrong behavior and might break with this fix. And it's
not very urgent right now, as we are probably close to 2.4.18-rc1.

Regards,
Martin

<[email protected]> (02/02/13 1.293.4.5)
this is a fragile piece of the ptrace code, the code relies on a single wakeup coming from the parent.
This fix is necessery after the preempt_schedule() cleanups, it unbreaks 'strace strace ...'.

<[email protected]> (02/02/13 1.293.4.6)
- make the preempt-enable test cheaper - only test for the (very rare) TIF_NEED_RESCHED
condition, we test the preemption count in preempt_schedule(). This reduces the icache
footprint and the overhead of preemption.

- plus optimize the irq-path preemption check a bit.

[PATCH] fix sd_find_target (v2.5.4)

<[email protected]> (02/02/13 1.317.1.4)
[PATCH] flush_icache_user_range (v2.5.4)

The patch below changes access_process_vm to use a new architecture
hook, flush_icache_user_range, instead of flush_icache_page, and adds
a definition of flush_icache_user_range which does the same thing as
flush_icache_page for all architectures except PPC. (The PPC update
that is in Linus' BK tree already includes a suitable definition of
flush_icache_user_range.)

The reason for doing this is that when flush_icache_page is called
from do_no_page or do_swap_page, I want to be able to do the flush
conditionally, based on the state of the page. In contrast,
access_process_vm needs to do the flush unconditionally since it has
just modified the page. In the access_process_vm case it is useful to
have the information about the user address and length that have been
modified since then we can just flush the affected cache lines rather
than the whole page.

This patch should make it easy to improve performance on alpha, since
there (as I understand it) the icache flush is not needed at all in
do_no_page or do_swap_page, but is needed in access_process_vm. All
that is needed is to make flush_icache_page a noop on alpha. The
patch below doesn't do this, I'll let the alpha maintainers push that
change if they want.

[PATCH] x86_64 merge: arch + asm

This adds the x86_64 arch and asm directories and a Documentation/x86_64.

It took a bit longer because I first had to make preemption and thread_info

tested for a long time on UP.

I'm not sure what I should describe. A lot is based on i386 with
a lot of cleanups. I wrote a paper about it for last year's OLS that describes
most of the changes (ftp://ftp.firstfloor.org/pub/ak/x86_64.ps.gz). It is
a bit outdated now, but should give a good overview.

It currently has a completely cut'n'pasted from others+hacked 32bit
emulation. I hope to clean that up in the future by merging the generic
core of this with other 64bit archs.

Thanks,

Regression test: Does that ALSA stuff that's just been merged support
16bit I/O on Creative Labs Sound Blaster Vibra 16X (DSP 4.xx, those with
the two 8-bit-DMA channels rather than the usual 1 8-bit and 1 16-bit
DMA channel as found on other ISA sound blaster cards)?

AFAIK, ALSA 0.9 supported this, 0.5 did not, so take this question as
"what version is that ALSA stuff that's been merged?" if you like.

In a different (wrong?) directory: /pub/linux/kernel/testing/ instead of
/pub/linux/kernel/v2.5/testing which is also why hpa's scripts haven't

Doesn't matter 1) The OSS drivers are still all there

Doesn't matter 2) We finally have a sound maintainer who can respond to
this... with code! :)

You're welcome. I've got the changelog generation automated too, so these
days the quality of the changelog is directly dependent on the quality of
the explanations that accompany the email patches or the changelogs in the
BK trees that I merge.

Linus,

Did you always merge this many patches, or does it just look like more using
this very nice changelog format? Anyhow, I'm impressed about the amount of
work accepted in such a short time.

This has been broken for a long time 2.5, the RAID both software and hardware
havent been ported to the new block io layer. You are welcome to try,

just curious :-)) Is the x86_64 stuff based/tested on real HW,
simulators or just on the specs.

The x86-64 stuff was developed and extensivly tested - and also
demonstrated at the last show cases like LinuxWorldExpo NY ;-) - using
a software simulator. You cannot develop such a beast just with the
specs...

The VESA fb window will be higher than the ISA window as its a linear

I don't think it actually matters on x86 but phys_to_virt() is probably
more correct

Well I think this is only the BIOS register gateway which we deal with
here and I was therefore assuming
(without reading the doc's about the *isa*pci*bus*phys*virt* ) that this
can be expected to reside in
the low memmory area < 1M of the physical address space. And then there
are no pci references in the vesa driver
at all. Perhaps becouse they ignore the actual frame-buffer mapping
games for non intel archs entierly.
Anyway I think that the isa_variant is correct. But please feel free to
consider me a bit
arrogant for not reading the doc's about the address mapping functions.
If I'm mistaken here, you could
alternatively consider it as a test for the fact that the API isn't
"obvious" in first place, becouse it's not
easy to figure out what to do without sudying the docu for something
such trivial like IO address range mapping ;-).

It looks like more because of the changelog format.

The old changelogs were one-liners, and didn't mention small patches at
all (ie the entries like "Remove warning in /proc inode conversions" would
not even have made it into the changelog before).

Also, I used to combine entries from the same person, so the eight patches
for reiserfs would have been one entry ("reiserfs update"), and the 20
entries from Jeff would likewise have been just one entry ("update network
drivers").

That said, this week I've basically spent _only_ on making sure I work
well with BitKeeper (so far so good), so I have spent more time than I
normally do on merging. So yes, it's actually more merging too. That will
calm down eventually.

(The happy news is that I expected to be slowed down by BK for a while,
and that hasn't really happened. Some things take more effort now, but to
offset that some other stuff is _much_ easier, so..)

I'm really happy your testing seems to go well. Will you make an explicit
statement when you actually decide to use bk or not ? To make clear that your
'testing period' is over.

hum, I'm not sure that removing ->driver_init is a good idea.

Seems like a loss of flexibility to me, not a cleanup, and I wonder if
you have thought through all the paths that wind up calling
->driver_init.

Nah, go ahead add it.

I have been meaning to start another driver from scratch that is fully
threaded IO and can deal with register core operations independent of the
how the arch calls the transport.

How about fixing the stuff you've already messed up (like putting the
drive present flags and the probe return back) ? The changes you made
to the init code also broke the framework so that 2.5 would eventually
let you do

open("/dev/cdrom")
read/write
close("/dev/cdrom")
open("/dev/sda") /* Same device */
burn a cd

without loading/unloading modules

I'm also confused how you plan to fix the hot swap case after your changes
because you've not allowed for the fact drives might be hot swapped while
you are suspended. The old code was careful to keep the hooks for that
ready.

Finally you forgot to update the MAINTAINER entry since you've now clearly
decided to walk over Andre and become the IDE maintainer

Yes I have tought it all through!
Please trust me - I eat at least myself my dog-food.

And the driver_init function is something which where currently
just the bloody module initialization function get's called
a seond time - and this is just plain wrong.

If I hadn't tought about it I wouldn't be that advantegrous.
And my testing of it did consist of the following:

1. 2 x IDE drives of one IDE port.

2. 1 x CD-RW on a second port - modularized.

3. 1 x CarBus to CF adapter.

It all worked well after the removal!

Please note that *this* stuff was messed up before as well.

In esp using a CardBus ide adapter will give you after first
plug: /dev/hdc, after second plug /dev/hde and so on... on 2.4.17.

I'm just rying to clarify the code-flow before stuff like the above
can be cleaned up.

And please note that it certainly was and isn't a good idea
to call the module initialization routine twice. OK?

So you didnt test or consider the upcoming things like hotplug.

I'm sure the cleanup works now, but imagine if I was to "clean up" Jens
new block code by removing all the stuff he has there ready for next
features.

Just tried that - its working for me in 2.4.18pre - do you know what
triggers that ?

The problem is if you keep cleaning up stuff which was there ready to
merge new stuff, then its impossible to merge new stuff. At the moment
there are two many cooks involved in that code. It all needs to go via one
person and in an ordered way - even if it isnt Andre since Linus and Andre
aren't the most compatible people 8)

I did plugging and unplugging a CardBus IDE contoller in and out on
a hot system.

Well the hotplug/suspension problem is certinaly to be targetted by
using the struct device_driver infrastructure and not by reduplicating
it's fuctionality inside ide.c. Agreed? Before one could even thing
about this the splitting between ide_driver_t and ide_module_t *had* to
be removed.

Just have a look at the massive code duplication between init_module
and driver_reinit functions inside the subdrivers to see why this is.

Before this can happen one has to untagle the flow of the current
driver. Like for exampel double calls to module initialization
functions. The device detection part *has* to be pulled
out from the corresponding module initialization routines - yes I'm
aware of this. But I would rathter like them to find they home
inside the following:

struct device_driver {
int (*probe) (struct device *dev);
int (*remove) (struct device *dev);

int (*suspend) (struct device *dev, u32 state, u32 level);
int (*resume) (struct device *dev, u32 level);
}

instead of ide_driver_t ide_hwif_t or whatever the ide-typdef of the day
is.

Finally: Before something can go in - well something has to go out.
In esp. if it is in the way and the removal doesn't cause any loss
modulo current functionality.

This is the reaons of the FIXME notes I have itroduced here and there
inside the patch as well.

But currently one has to fight far too frequently
with functions which are exported without any justification or
different functions which basically just do the same, games on
ifdef's inside headers and so on...

IDE hotplug is device level (hence you want ->present)

1. Clarification: The system where 2.4.18rc2, 2.5.5+x

2. Yes I know it is the very same bad workflow of initialization
and deallocation routines. I suppose that the particular cause is
inside the ide_module_t area.

3. I was compleatly ignorant about calling some device eject utilities
or similar.

Andre already asked in private if I would dare to take care of new stuff
comming from him for 2.5.5.

Please note that thus far I didn't see *any* concerete code from him.

But I still don't see any great problems in merging some forthcomming
stuff iff it comes along.

Please see as well the quite nice mode of cooperation I had with
Vojtech Pavlik.

Please note further that the foundations for true hot plugging done the
right way where comming from Pavel Machek i have just picked it up
as well as the _IDE_C mess and some other nit's here and there.

And finally - I don't do anything inside an ebony tower - I just
*post* everything to lkml - whatever finished or not.
Please feel free to discuss it.

Everybody who wants to contribute *please feel free* to post
a ide-clean-11+x.diff. I'm NOT playing hodge on the code at all!

So the political problems you talk about are perhaps just not there...

Then please tell me why the sudden /dev/hdc -> /dev/hde name

This patch works very well for me and it's a pitty that it wasn't included
into Kernel 2.5.5-final.

I'm using advansys scsi with my P2 UP (Intel LX).

It should be included into Dave Jones tree (or is it already?),
because Linus seems to be very busy (as usual).

Especially since their proposal and usage of the command under

Please allow him to UPDATE and correct the SCSI core, also.
I was joking with Christoph Hellwig about his work on the SCSI API,

Martin,

please tell us up-front if you are able to make Linux work
with 48-bit IDE stuff so Linux is able to talk to drives
larger than 137 GB.

If you're not, please stop pissing off Andre and work
together with him ... we need the features of his new IDE
work in order to be able to support the new IDE hardware
which is being released soon (or sold already).

cheers,

Hi Martin,

ide_module_t was designed to conceptually divide the code to multiple
layers,
whether one actually uses modules or compiles all the IDE code into the
kernel,
and in the future, to alow several parallel implementations of the same
functionality
which could reside in the kernel simultaneously.

The job was not finished, but the original idea was to have:

1. Core IDE code.
2. Chipset modules.
3. Probe modules.
4. Subdriver modules.

ide_module_t was created so that the core IDE code could track all the
modules
currently available to it, and to be able to have several chipset drivers
for the same
chipset simultaneously, several probe modules simultaneously, and several
subdrivers
for the same device type (so that one could choose the one which works
best).

The last example was actually used in ide-scsi.c. The intention in
ide_module_t was
that one would be able to have, for example, ide-cdrom + ide-scsi or
ide-tape + ide-scsi
in the kernel simultaneously (either compiled in or as modules), known to
the
core IDE code, and one could then change drivers for a single drive on the
fly using
something like "cat driver_name > /proc/ide/hdx/driver".

Upon receiving such a command, the IDE core could call the cleanup code of
the driver which was originally assigned to hdx, the cleanup code would
de-attach
the driver from hdx without unloading the module and without affecting the
other drives which are currently supported by it. The core code could then
call the init code of the other driver to attach to the device.

The reason ide-probe was splitted to a different module is that in most of
the
time, one doesn't need the probe code in the kernel. It is needed during
boot, and
each time one "hot swaps" an IDE device. In addition, it could provide the
framework
for having several probe modules simultaneously, altough that never
materialized.

Cheers,

I refuse to fix this mess.

Andre, go take a nap or something and come back when you're not in
whining mode ok?

If you can't handle someone else doing cleanups of a subsystem you
happen to maintain, GO FIND ANOTHER PROJECT TO WORK ON.

Because nobody owns any particular piece of code in that way,
plain and simple. I used to think I could whine when people put in
cleanups of the networking behind my back, I WAS WRONG. Just like you
are wrong.

All of the cleanup changesets from Martin I saw go in were just
fine anyways.

If you can't be bothered to handle the conflicts introduced by such
cleanups, that is your problem. And finally your mouth is much larger
than the code you write. So you might want to work on that ratio a
little bit.

Ah, seems you are the one who broke modular ide in 2.5.5:

Older kernels:
insmod ide-mod, insmod ide-disk, insmod ide-probe-mod => works.

2.5.5:
insmod ide-mod, insmod ide-disk => mounting /dev/hda2 doesn't work.

The normal linux way using multiple driver implementations are
aliases in /etc/modules.conf - see for example ALSA vers. OSS sound
drivers for the same hardware.

See above that is *not* the proper interface for implementation choice,
which is *user* policy anyway and can be handled fine by the
existing generic module interface infrastructure.

For the sake of modularization. I have already at home a version
of ide-pci.c, where the signatures of chipset initialization
source code modules match the singature of a normal pci device
initialization hook. This should enable it to make them true modules
RSN.

The chipset drivers will register lists of PCI-id's they can handle
instead of the single only global list found in ide-pci.c.

It's inventing too many races (in esp. in the hot plug case) and the
module would be too small for beeing worth it:

[root@kozaczek ide]# size ide-probe.o
text data bss dec hex filename
8445 16 0 8461 210d ide-probe.o
[root@kozaczek ide]# size ide.o
text data bss dec hex filename
30951 521 9376 40848 9f90 ide.o
[root@kozaczek ide]#

(BTW.> I hate the ALSA OSS emultaion module splitup as well.)

As it goes about the possibility of multiple different probe
implementatoins - please show me a different one.

Well I will have to check this soon on a system booting out from SCSI.
Most propably it's an simple "load order" problem, where ide-disk should
call the probe code again. (But somehow ide-scsi, ide-cd and friends
do...)

I think it'd be even better if the chipset drivers did the probing
themselves, and once they find the IDE device, they can register it with
the IDE core. Same as all the other subsystem do this.

Yes. I've mentioned before converting the IDE driver into a sort of
structure, but it always boiled down to "that requires a complete
rewrite" reply to me... If someone accomplishes such, I would be happy.

Will do soon. But now I don't have it at hand, it's on my home system
unfortunately and I would like to finish some other minor things there
as well. I mean basically the macro games showing that somebody didn't
understand C pointer semantics found at places like:

#ifdef CONFIG_BLK_DEV_ALI15X3
extern unsigned int pci_init_ali15x3(struct pci_dev *, const char *);
...
#define PCI_ALI15X3 &pci_init_ali15x3
#else
...
#define PCI_ALI15X3 NULL
#endif

This should rather look like:

#ifdef CONFIG_BLK_DEV_ALI15X3
extern unsigned int pci_init_ali15x3(struct pci_dev *);
#else
#define pci_init_ali15x3 NULL
#endif

And be replaces entierly by register_chipset(...) blah blah or
therlike ;-) as well as module initialization lists.

Well the lists are needed for quirk handling in the ide-pci.c code.
But if it turns out to be possible - I'm all for it.

I must agree that SCSI controllers aren't doing their probing in a
uniform and clean way even on PCI, but at least they do the probing
themselves and don't have the mid-layer SCSI code do it for them like
IDE.

I don't think so. If needed we can make some generic IDE_QUIRK_XXX
defines which then the chipset drivers can use where applicable, passing
them to the generic code.

Only 1-2 SCSI drivers do PCI probing "the right way"... IIRC aic7xxx is
one of them.

It depends on the quirk, really, whether you want the low-level chipset
driver to set a flag that tells the IDE core to do something, or whether
the low-level chipset driver handles the quirk (by a fixup in an IRQ
routine or somesuch).

Basically it's a case-by-case basis...

I just noticed that you are *right*. I'm going over the whole recognized
PCI device list anyway, so I will just add a flag field to the struct
ide_pci_device_s. There are at least fortunately not more then 32
different quirk types ;-).
And then the whole she-bag can be really pushed down to the
particular chipset setup file indeed.

For what the code is trying to accomplish, the code is correct.

I agree the above change is also correct... probably the author wanted
to reduce the size of the -huge- data table where PCI_ALI15X3 symbol is
used.


> And be replaces entierly by register_chipset(...) blah blah or

When we have "modprobe piix4_ide" loading the IDE subsystem, you are
correct.

IDE is currently driven by an inward->outward setup of module
initialization, which is fundamentally the opposite of what we want,
which is chipset_drvr -> core initialization.

Of course it's semantically correct. But the usage of an explicitly
taken function pointer refference is usually a shure sign for a C
beginner at work. I know and you know that this &xxx == xxx semantics is
a workarount for pure K&R C implementation quriks.

Yes but he just didn't recognize that the whole huge list is the true

The problem that bites us since years is not the PCI probing, but the
order in which SCSI devices are attached. Microsoft O/Ses have been smart
enough for ordering hard disks in the way user sets it from system setup,
but Unices just messed up the thing.

There have been exceptions to this. People that use sym53c8xx HBA with
NVRAM for hard disk devices with either the sym53c8xx or the sym53c8xx_2
drivers see their hard disks under Linux in the expected order. The work
is performed by the low level driver by:

1) Detecting a controller with NVRAM that contains the HBA attachment
order.
2) Attaching the HBAs in this order.
2.1 For each HBA, attaching the devices configured for SCAN at BOOT.

Then other devices can be probed after boot by user in the order it
desires.

Basically at the moment, if the driver allows upper 'seeming cleaner and
smarter' PCI probing things to deal with the HBA attachment order, at
least all my machines running Linux will not even reboot.

Being smart is doing what user expects, here.

Could you, please, not mix PCI probing and SCSI probing.

Average user does not care about PCI probing. But it does care on booting
the expected kernel image and mounting the expected partitions.
It also doesn't care of code aesthetical issue even with free software
since average user is not a kernel hacker.

I have investigated it, but it didn't seem to allow the boot order set by
user in sym53c8xx HBA NVRAMs to be applied, breaking as a result all
systems depending on it. Since it is transparently handled by the
sym53c8xx driver and just behaves _as_ user expects, my guess is that
numerous users may just have their system relying on it.

Propose a kernel API that does not break more features that it adds and I
will be glad to use it.

At the time I investigated the API it just mixed the probing and the
registering by performing some auto-registration based on return value.
May-be the API did evolve since that time or I missed something important.

For now I will be in vacation for 1 week. I will re-investigate this when
I will be back.

Thanks for the reply. But my concern is user convenience in _average_
here. Basically, I want the 99% of users that cannot afford neither need
nor want PCI hotplug to have their system just dead in order to make happy
the 1%.

In other word, I donnot care about this 1% if it makes run a tiny risk to
the 99% to get inconvenience a single second. Btw, I am among the 99%.

My reply was in the only context of sym53c8xx PCI-SCSI chips.
Even in the full SCSI context + laptops, the 'lots of people' you are

Rik, get off the high horse.

2.5.x already supports 48-bit LBA addressing.

And quite frankly, it's not Martin who cannot work with Andre, it's Andre
who so far has shown himself _totally_ unable to work with anybody at all.

Whenever somebody comes and even tries to do trivial and obviously correct
cleanups that do not actually change any semantics at all, Andre stands
out and shouts bloody murder from the rooftops, completely ignoring the
fact that he hasn't even looked at the patches.

All the crap Andre has shouted about "IDE mess" and "timing changes" is
total and utter CRAP. None of the patches I've seen has changed _anything_
but cleanups, or removed _any_ features.

Guys, you need to realize that Martin is NOT the bad guy here. The problem
is not Martin, the problem is that Andre cannot take any level or
criticism, and in the five years or so that he has been maintainer I have
yet to see a _single_ person who has been able to work together with him
(as opposed to some people who have been able to maintain their own
subdrivers _despite_ him).

Andre, your threats about not wanting to maintain 2.5.x are just a symptom
of this inability to accept the fact that other people actually do know
what they are doing, even if what they are doing is only cleanups with no
semantic changes.

Rik, _look_ at the patches, instead of just taking Andre's word for it.

Linus,

Obvious you have a bug up the backside, so I am totally hands off until
you and Martin are done. See you back at 2.5.10. I will not comment on
the changes because you want something and I do not have the timetable to
deliver and you are upset.

I am more concerned with the stablity of the core of ATA/ATAPI and next in
queue was to address the entire ATAPI data-phases issues that appear to
have some problems.

It is clear you want a cosmetic change and I am not ready to make one.

Therefore I will be patient and wait for you get the facelift you want and
then see what needs to be salvaged afterwards.

Does forcing a command to bypass the contents in the cache meaning
anything. This is not a cache sync like SCSI. It is a cache bypass and

Most SCSI drivers are not using the 2.4 PCI API, which has been
documented and stable for a while now.

This is need for transparented support for cardbus and hotplug PCI, not
some pie-in-the-sky code asthetic. This will become further important
as 2.5.x transitions more and more to Mochel's driver model work, which
will among other things provide a sane power management model.

To tangent, IDE and SCSI hotplug issues are interesting, because a lot
of people forget or mix up the two types of hotplug, board (host)
hotplug and drive hotplug.

I agree that command mode has a proper use but the goal was to add in
write ordering barrier operations w/ a setfeature to modify the behavior
of the command.

You have tons of flexibility you are ignoring here... For the
non-hotplug hosts (ie. present at boot), just use pci_driver::probe to
register hosts on a list, and little other work. do_deferred_work()
handles the list in a manner that ensures proper boot and/or host
ordering.

So for non-hotplug hosts you do a init_module time:
register N hosts with PCI API
register N hosts with SCSI API

And hotplugged hosts would do the same, with N==1.

What you describe -is- supported with the PCI API.

Also not that ATA/IDE drivers were not using 2.4 PCI API and likewise was

This is HOST level operation not DEVICE, and you do not see the differenc.

It is a shame that I will now have to start from scratch to create another
API for hotplug device for ATA/ATAPI that was migrating into SCSI because
of the ide-scsi driver.

Stable? Yes. But it's not modular nor compatible with current efforts
like 2.4 cardbus or 2.4 hotplug pci or 2.5 device mode. If one cannot
do
modprobe piix4_ide
and have the right things happen automatically, the system is not
modular. If it doesn't use the PCI API, it's implementing CardBus
support in a non-standard way if at all.

I do. I am talking about a HOST api here.

Why not work with Patrick to make sure his device model properly

But as Jeff noted, it is _required_ for PCI hotplug functionality.
Because allmost all of the SCSI drivers are not using this over 2 year
old interface, they will not work properly on large machines that now
support PCI hotplug. Much to my dismay.

Init order works off of PCI probing order. If the network people can
handle this, the SCSI people can :)

Huh? This is not a new API. What does it break for you?

Does INT13/INT19 Bios call mean anything?

Last time I checked, ethernet devices are not invoked here but I could be
wrong given PXE.

The problem is how do you deal with multiple HOSTs given there drivers are
not (have not checked lately) capable of discrete HOST addition and
removal.

SCSI/ATA share the same problem IIRC, the host/chipset drivers load all
the device hosts who match that driver code.

What am I missing?

Now what happens if you have more than one HOST of the same kind or the
"SAME HOST" with multiple functions but are really one HOST?

I do not see how this will handle the problem.
But obviously I have been to far down making sure the DATA got to platter
correct and most likely missed a few things. :-/

Okay we are getting some place now, cause what I was reading and seeing in
the changes registers a DRIVE to the PCI API and not a HOST.

I thought there were a few conversations to address this point.
What everyone is maybe missing is PATA (parallel ata) does not permit
"Disconnect/Release".

Maybe I need to sit down w/ Patrick to figure out how to pound the model
into my thick head.

Much of my unwillingness to move rapid is because the past has shown
massive problem, and Linus has never permitted rapid design changes in the
ata/atapi stack. So much if this is a shock to the system.

Nothing. It is the same problem for IDE PCI drivers. In order for PCI
Hotplug to work on these devices, they have to implement the 2.4 pci
interface. If they do that, they work with PCI hotplug systems. If
they do not, they don't.

I know that for scsi it can be fixed. Ok the current scsi layer doesn't do
it right, but there's nothing that prevents it in principle.

Eg

PCI code sees a PCI ID, calls probe for the chip
chip driver looks and sees 2 "cables" and creates host structures for
each.
per host drive discovery is done and registered with a (thin) generic
"I am a disk, gimme a major/minor" layer.

That ought to work. And on hotplug your probe just get called again...

Under x86 SCSI is hooked w/ INT13/INT19 calls, that is how you can boot a
SCSI "Direct-Access", that is why I moved away from ATA and was hoping it
would be "generic storage"

Okay, but where is a card that is capable, and cardbus is not the same
issue.

With some of the upcoming changes int 2.5 (like initramfs), it will be
more important than ever to move to the current PCI API.

I'm not saying that you are being forced to convert the code, but more
and more the driver will not work with new features.

Right now I just point people to the Adaptec cards when they complain
about their controllers not working with hotplug :)

I think _lots_ of people have laptops -- far more than just 1%.
Those laptops have cardbus slots, which need PCI hotplug to work
properly. And I _know_ that Linus has a laptop with a cardbus
slot...

Well, even aic7xxx actually don't do hotplug correctly either.
Or more accurately, with my Adaptec 1480B I can hotplug, and I
can then hot-unplug, but I can't hotplug again... Just try
pulling the 1480 card and then doing a
cat /proc/scsi/aic7xxx/0
some time and watch all the fireworks,

For some adapters, this is possible, for other it is not (at all). You
happen to be a maintainer of one for which it is possible, and thus your
point of view is quite different from mine - mine comes from USB and
other parts of the device world, where no order can even be defined.

And because of that, I do not think that having the host adapters decide
what device gets what number is a good idea. They should provide the
information if they have it, but the final decision should definitely be
done in userspace, by the hotplug agent.

Ie. it should be configurable.

Hm, I didn't try the 'cat' test, but I did successfully unplug and then
add a card, and then spin up the drives attached to that drive. But
that was a long time ago. Things might have changed since then.

This is with a cardbus device, right? I have never looked into them
before.

Nothing extra. Same as happens when you 'modprobe usb-uhci' or 'modprobe
tulip'. All the PCI devices of the type supported by the module are
found, initialized and registered with the ide/usb/network core.

A drive can't register to a PCI API. A drive isn't a PCI device. That's
quite clear, ain't it?

Uh? This is quite irrelevant - while it may not support hot(un)plugging,
it still supports power management. Hence the need for Patricks device
model support.

Well, the changes happening now from the hands of Martin are definitely
not rapid at all. They're pretty incremental without any huge steps
which is what Linus dislikes. (And I must agree with him, merging huge
patches is not a nice work.)

I totally agree. Network devices are now configured by the hotplug
agent and can handle different PCI probe order, rearranging cards in a
system, and other fun things that cause them to be initialized in a
different order. All of this now "just works" as far as the user is
concerned.

I don't see why SCSI should be any different.

Yup. One of these:
http://www.adaptec.com/worldwide/product/proddetail.html?prodkey=APA-1480B
which I have been using to connect my MO drive to my laptop. I'm
happy to provide details. I spent about two hours last week
digging through the various layers trying to understand how the
SCSI layer had leftover state. I found one little bug, but had
to move on to other things before I'd found the cause,

For the future, we need to get away from legacy methods of disk
ordering, indeed.

For Gerard's case, I can see a userspace agent running in initramfs
discovering the order...

Most filesystems have some sort of serial number of labelling capability
which allows them to be addressed independent of spindle, or starting
position on that spindle [partition].

Exactly.

The same agent that decides for the other cases - only in Gerard's case
it has more information to work with, we just have to make sure it can
access the information.

I must be an absolute zero then, since I (at least try to) use my
Adaptec 1480 card in my laptop fairly regularly. Perhaps we
should call up Adaptec and tell them to halt manufacturing?

Thanks!

One thing that is slowly becoming apparently to me during this thread is
the importance of separating ordering [of hosts, of disks] from the
registration of the resource itself.

Thinking about the problem a bit more (NVRAM boot disk ordering, etc.) I
believe that what I describe above might be considered a transition
step... In Step Two, do_deferred_work() [above] would likely be moved
to userspace, running on initramfs.

The changes add a only a drive and driver,
becouse a pci_dev was already there and is used.
This is by the way corresposnding to the HOST host.

Can't be that you don't understand the code you claim to care
that much about?

Following this logic, we should just fix the thing for
laptop users and ignore the few folks who run multiple
SCSI busses, right ?

Of course you'll shout bloody murder since you're part
of the 1% now ;)

I guess we want a solution which works for both situations,
instead of people discouraging each other from fixing the
kernel for situations they're not experiencing themselves.

The fact that even though you have one module for the whole family of
host controllers, the hotplug API will only call the remove function of
the one instance of the host controller that is being removed, not
affecting the others.

Any PCI card can be hot-plugged and hot-unplugged if the *mainboard*
supports it. Still talking about (un)plugging the controllers, not the
drives. And this is the same issue as cardbus.

Yes... I think there was some earlier confusion. PCI API is definitely
an API for registering hosts.

If you have a C structure "struct drive", it may be useful to have a
pointer to struct pci_dev. That is just a reference from drive back to
the host. So you could do crazy references like this pseudocode:

struct pci_dev *host_pci;
struct ata_host *host_ata;
struct ata_channel *channel;

host_pci = cur_drive->pci_dev;
host_ata = pci_get_drvdata(host_pci);
channel = &host_ata->channels[cur_drive->channel_number];

These back-references are very useful, and use of a concept like this
may be the source of confusion.

Nothing, I think --

The PCI API is just a different way of doing the same thing: discrete
HOST addition and removal. That is --exactly-- what the PCI API is.

Let me give an example of a very simple PCI API IDE driver:
(WARNING WARNING, no error checking!)

struct pci_driver jgarzik_ide_driver = {
probe: jg_host_add,
remove: jg_host_remove,
};

static int __devinit jg_host_add(struct pci_dev *host_pci, ...)
{
ide_hwif_t *host_ata = kmalloc(sizeof(*host_ata), GFP_KERNEL);
pci_set_drvdata(host_pci, host_ata);
ide_setup_ports(&host_ata->hw, ...);
return ide_register_hw(&host_ata->hw, &host_ata);
}

static void __devexit jg_host_remove(struct pci_dev *host_pci)
{
ide_hwif_t *host_ata = pci_get_drvdata(host_pci);
ide_unregister_hw(&host_ata->hw, &host_ata);
kfree(host_ata);
pci_set_drvdata(host_pci, NULL);
}

static int __init jg_driver_init(void)
{
return pci_module_init(&jgarzik_ide_driver);
}

static void __exit jg_driver_exit(void)
{
pci_unregister_driver(&jgarzik_ide_driver);
}
module_init(jg_driver_init);
module_exit(jg_driver_exit);

That will probably break with CONFIG_MODVERSIONS. At the very least it
will require make mrproper when changing CONFIG_BLK_DEV_ALI15X3 and
CONFIG_MODVERSIONS is set to y.

Modversions does its own #define of nthe function name. Anybody
contemplating a mixture of real functions and #define of the function
name must test their patch with CONFIG_MODVERSIONS=y, otherwise you are
setting users up for wierd bug reports.

No it won't. The functions above are:

1. Not exported at all to modules.
2. If the will be exported it will happen through a generic
struct of function pointers.

BTW.> The ATA driver is currently entierly confused about
hosts and channels. Usually a host has two channels on it but it
doesn't deal properly with this fact. (to ide_hwif_t instances... and a
"mate" pointer)

Subject: [PATCH] 2.5.5 IDE cleanup 12

This patch does the following:

1. Add some notes to Documentation/driver-model.txt about how and
and where to mount the driverfs.

2. Reorganize and prepare the PCI scanning code for proper device
dependant splitup. Basically tedious cleanup of macro games.

3. Use struct pci_dev name field as the name of PCI host dapaters
instead of invention ambigious IDE special names. This makes
the kernel bootup messages look a bit shifted, since those names are bit
longer, but makes up for consistance and should allow one later
to rearage things to fit into the generic PCI device initialization
mechanisms provided by the kernel.

4. Set 3. Allowed us to make the host chip specific
pci_init_xxx class functions have the proper signature of
module initializers. This will make it possible to make true
modules out of them later.

5. Make some functions in cmd64x.c static which where not used
elsewhere.

6. rename ide_special_settings to trust_pci_irq - this is reflecting
it's functionality better. And make it match the pci device vendor
as well as the device ID. It was a BUG to match only the device id!.

7. Make the chanell setup more tollerant for BIOS-es which don't
report IO and MEM bases properly. The code found previously there
tryed but was inconsistant.

8. Start to use proper terminology in ide-pci.c: host chip, channel,
drive instead of hwif, port, drive...

9. Enlarge the name field from ide_hwif_t to 64 bytes. It was only 6
previously and there where custom names there which where exceeding
this!!! But since we use the proper pci devce name there now instead,
we had to extend the size of this field anyway.

10. Add some explanatory comments and fix misguiding comments here and
there.

11. Kill the proc_ide_write_config and proc_ide_read_config brain
damage! Those where backdoors to the pci configuration registers on PCI
devices and IO registers on directly connected ISA ATA controllers.
They didn't discrement between them!

Access to both of them *simply* doesn't belong into an operating system,
which is supposed to abstract out the access to hardware! Did I mention
that access to both can be done from user land without an IDE special
interface! Any program which was using them (I hardly beleve there is
one) just deserves to loose. The programmer responsible for it
deserves to be fired immediately.

12. Move ide_map_xx and ide_unmap_xx tinny bio level wrappers away
from the "global" ide.h to where those are actually used and kill
trivial wrappers for otherwise generic bio_ routines. Just fighting
code obfuscation. The "rq->bio is used or is not there" brain
damage in ide-taskfile.c has to be fixed later. Possibly by killing
ide-taskfile.c alltogether, becouse this should be a driver for
users and not a driver for ATA disk disaster recovery companys...

13. Kill hwif->pci_devid and hwif->pci_venid. Just use the already
present hwif->pci_dev field instead.

14. Kill unused big switch ide_reinit_drive function. This silly
functon was switching upon every possible device driver cathegory
and calling the correspondng reinit function directly. This
idiocy was fortunately not used.

That's all... Most will be clear if one starts looking at the changes
in ide.h of course...

In contrast to the previous patches this one is actually fixing two
serious bugs.


The next direct step will be to kill the sigle place global PCI device
type recognition list from ide-pci.c by pushing the entries to where
they belong -> the host chips setup modules.

What really bugs me about this is that while normally you're hard to
communicate with, this time you have actively _lied_ about the patches on
IRC and in email about how they will cause IDE corruption etc due to
timing changes.

No such timing changes existed, and whenever you were asked about what was

Here I question the taking of a patch 12 which altered the behavior of the
subsystem baseclock to setting up PIO timings for the executing command
block operations. I then looked over the patch again and saw you had not
taken it yet.

In that private email, I clearly stated I made a mistake in reading what
was accepted into 2.5.5. The fact is you had not accepted it yet.
However I expect you will take it. Given that very few people in the
world have most of the hardware that was effected by that change, and even
less have the NDA documents on the rules, please accept the change.

If this line has be crossed it is because you have moved and altered that

I repeat, as I did in a private to-you-only email before: every _single_
complain you have had about the patches I've seen has been 100% bogus.

The patch was called "IDE cleanup", and cleanup it was. Nothing but. The
timings didn't change, although the stupid (twice duplicated) functions
that "calculated" them were removed and replaces with one boot-time
calculation.

Martin not only had "cleanup" in the subject line, but actually explained
all the changes, including the timing change. The comments at the top of
the patch mail said (on that particular change, which seems to have been
your favourite target), typos and all:

3. Replace the functionally totally equal system_bus_block() and
ide_system_bus_speed() functions with one simple global
variable: system_bus_speed. This saves quite a significatn amount of
code. Unfortunately this is the part, which is makeing this
patch to appear bigger then it really is...

and the patch itself certainly agrees with what Martin claimed.

Your ranting, both on linux-kernel and on the IRC channels, has been
totally bogus, as if you didn't read either the explanation _or_ the
actual patch itself. And pointing this out multiple times doesn't seem to
have made any difference.

Ummm, how does this work if I have two PCI ide cards, one on a 66mhz PCI
bus, and one on a 33mhz PCI bus?

Or am I missing something?

Maybe then you'll want to point out how patch #12 can change any PIO
timings? I'm definitely curious ... that'd affect my VIA driver as well,

Access to both of them *simply* doesn't belong into an operating system,
which is supposed to abstract out the access to hardware! Did I mention
that access to both can be done from user land without an IDE special
interface! Any program which was using them (I hardly beleve there is
one) just deserves to loose. The programmer responsible for it
deserves to be fired immediately.

12. Move ide_map_xx and ide_unmap_xx tinny bio level wrappers away
from the "global" ide.h to where those are actually used and kill
trivial wrappers for otherwise generic bio_ routines. Just fighting
code obfuscation. The "rq->bio is used or is not there" brain
damage in ide-taskfile.c has to be fixed later. Possibly by killing
ide-taskfile.c alltogether, becouse this should be a driver for
users and not a driver for ATA disk disaster recovery companys...

13. Kill hwif->pci_devid and hwif->pci_venid. Just use the already
present hwif->pci_dev field instead.

14. Kill unused big switch ide_reinit_drive function. This silly
functon was switching upon every possible device driver cathegory
and calling the correspondng reinit function directly. This
idiocy was fortunately not used.

That's all... Most will be clear if one starts looking at the changes
in ide.h of course...

In contrast to the previous patches this one is actually fixing two
serious bugs.


The next direct step will be to kill the sigle place global PCI device
type recognition list from ide-pci.c by pushing the entries to where
they belong -> the host chips setup modules.

This portion of the patch should be split out and submitted separately,
to the author of the document, as it doesn't really have anything to do

What hardware, chipsets, situations, etc did the previous code not work
on?

There is no avoiding the fact you need some kind of per-IDE controller
data for the clock for that particular PCI device.

I believe there are systems with 33mhz pci and 50mhz pci. Trying to find a
'common' base clock just seems to be an excercise in confusion. The only
thing that really makes sense is 'how fast is said PCI device clocked'.

The previous code didn't distinguish the bus speed between different

No. You don't need it. The base clock and multiplier are enough and you
have the multiplier from PCI config.

Actually, no. The parameter is a 'base clock', it isn't related to the
66 MHz - if you set it to for example 25, the drivers will know that if
you have a PCI 66 MHz bus, it's running only on 2*25 = 50 MHz. The
multiplier is known from PCI config and isn't related to this parameter.

The parameter is also used for VLB, where it is more important, because
VLB has no standard clock - it can run at 33, 40 or 50 MHz.

Let me also note here that the bus speed value here doesn't have the
necessary precision to compute the IDE timings correctly for higher UDMA
speeds, and that most drivers either assume 33 MHz PCI blindly or have a
set of fixed values they know.

I know what would actually help here, (the other code wasn't broken IMHO)
and would clean this up properly for not just IDE. Add a bus_speed field
to the struct pci_bus - that is where the info belongs and its the platform
specific bus code that can find the bus speed out (if anyone)

Alan you are of course right. But what to do about VLB and friends?
Unfortunately there isn't something comparable to struct pci_bus for
them in the kernel. (Or I'm missing something here?).
Iff then I would rather like to have a generic solution.

There is one on my desk, using a gt64260 PowerPC bridge chip. It's got
dual PCI busses, and each can be clocked independently.

Table 2-6. System Clock Selection
CPU &
Memory Bus Fast/3V PCI Slow/5V PCI
Speed Bus Speed Bus Speed SW7 Settings
133 MHz 66 MHz 33 MHz 0100 0010
100 MHz 66 MHz 33 MHz 1111 1010
100 MHz 33 MHz 33 MHz 1010 1000
83 MHz 55 MHz 41 MHz 0111 1101
66 MHz 66 MHz 33 MHz 0101 0101
66 MHz 33 MHz 33 MHz 0000 0001

These is just a partial list of potential clock rates.

Two VLB busses... I couldn't hardly imagine this, since VLB was
basically the 486 CPU - RAM interface exposed on a slot.

There are PCI-VLB bridges. Though it's unlikely, it may be
possible that there are systems with multiple such bridges
around... ;)

All of these pose no problem, because we know if the PCI is running at
double the nominal speed.

This one is a problem, because 41*2 != 55. However, this is also illegal
according to the PCI spec.

But yes, you convinced me that we may want to keep the clock speed per
bus (perhaps in the pci_bus struct ...), to be able to work with all the
(maybe spec noncompliant, or just weird) hardware.

I have some experimental IDE based code which can detect the PCI bus
speed by doing some IDE transfers and measuring the time it takes. It
isn't 100% reliable, though. I haven't found any other way to detect PCI
clock reliably, unfortunately it cannot be safely guessed from the CPU
clock or FSB clock or anything.

I think having two VLBs is quite impossible - they were wired right to

Uhh? I thought most the PCI & VLB systems had the PCI hanging off the
VLB and not the other way around. At least those I've seen had it this

Maybe your code cannot detect the "right answer" perfectly, but at least
it could be useful as a sanity check, to let you know if the timings/bus
speed are wildly off...

Yes, but actually the bus speeds are never 'wildly off', the realistic
values being somewhere between 25 to 41.5 MHz, and because all the new
mainboards have the FSB tunable with a resolution of a single megahertz,
almost all values in this range are posible. And even quite small
changes make sometimes a huge difference (works or doesn't).

We have some RS/6000 machines that have two separate PCI buses (two
host bridges) that run at 33MHz and 50MHz respectively. Fortunately
we also get a device tree from the firmware that tells us this.

Well, I'm assuming the 41 MHz clocked bus is not a 66-MHz type PCI bus
(doesn't have the 66 MHz bit set and can't operate at 20.5 MHz if you
plug in a card that can't do 66 MHz operation), rather it's an
overclocked 33 MHz bus.

And running PCI over 33 MHz isn't legal in the PCI spec as far as I
know. You can go lower, but I think the limit is 16 MHz there.

I really wonder why the 50 MHz one doesn't run at 66 MHz, and what
happens if you plug in a 66MHz non-capable card to the 50 MHz bus.

its the platform specific bus code that can find the bus speed out
(if anyone)

some platforms in fact already calculate it :-)

Apparently the rationale is that you can put more slots on the bus
if you run it at 50MHz than you can at 66MHz.

The bus speed drops to 33MHz.

Yes, of course the 41MHz bus would have to conform to the rules for
66MHz buses. Does it, Troy?

I see. That makes sense.

Interesting. I'd expect 25 myself ... then we'll definitely need two
clock values in struct pci_bus - because the hi-speed one isn't always a
double the low one - as shown by your example.

I believe the bridge chip (64260) is capable of 66mhz operation on both
busses, so it would follow the 66mhz operation rules. I'm not sure about
this since it's not an immediate problem and I don't want to wade through
600pages of documentation to figure it out ;)

Obviously this will be a sticking point on the baseclock assumed for each
host; however, the excitement of the commentary tends to validate the
concerns express, but poor word choice.

Given the baseclock is used to setup PIO, and that is the method to issue
and execute the command block, and all other transfers which are not DMA,
it stands to reason, if this becomes messed up so will the transfers.

So my comments in concerns are valid given each host is different and
those capable of determining there internal baseclock which may vary from
the actual PCI slot baseclock, FSB, etc ... will be okay. The rest of
those which depend on user input of a default safe value which has been
defined in the past and verified by history must remain.

In the past we carried a global since driverfs was not present.

As a point of reference for removal of the pci read/write space to the
host, I strongly suggest that be left alone. As for the removal of the
settings file, may of the distributions use this as a means to issue
script calls to enable and disable features w/o the use of an additional
application like "hdparm".

Interesting. I'd expect 25 myself ... then we'll definitely need two
clock values in struct pci_bus - because the hi-speed one isn't always a
double the low one - as shown by your example.

You only need one, the current active one.

If you think that hot-plug is an issue, the arch dependant could would
need to recalculate the "current bus speed" and all would be fine.

So why do we need two values?

And so they stay, if you read the patch. It doesn't change any
functionality, really, just the implementation.

I don't think driverfs will change this much.

Oh, you're right. We indeed need only one.

Hmm, now hotplug changing the PCI clock would be quite a lot of fun -
all running drivers will need to know about the change, because some may
need to recompute the timings they have programmed into the chips ...

Because virtually disconnecting and reconnecting all the cards for which
the timings have changed will probably not be an option.

Personally, I think hot-plugging a 33mhz pci device into a 66mhz pci bus
with other active devices on it is either user error or designer error
(should have had a bridge), and a 'virtual disconnect and reconnect' is
reasonable.

You're going to kill (or at least stop) any transactions going on on the
bus while you're physically hot-plugging anway..

I'd guess most hotpluggable PCIs will have a bridge per slot ...

The PCI bus speed will be the greatest that all cards on that bus can

on that bus must be 66Mhz.

No; all devices on the same bus run at the same speed ... for per
device (well, per bus) we need a speed.

Actually, strictly speaking drivers should be able to handle the speed
changing at runtime too --- I'm not sure if anything does this right
now but it is permissible.

You are sure the distros write to the PCI config space of the host chip
device or the IO registers at boot time????!!! In esp. since the
abolition in case did only just get introduced at 2.4.xx times???

If it is adding the same device twice, that's definately a
bug. Duplicate devfs entries are not allowed.

Thank you for reafirmation. As noted in the code
I will re-check this again soon.

Oh dear me. Wrong again. Microdrives require proper polite wakeups. But you
see camera vendors buy in IDE code from people who can read and follow
standards documents.

You now have an absolute vote of *NO CONFIDENCE* on my part. I'm simply
not going to consider running your code. "It probably wont eat your disk"
and handwaving is not how you write a block layer.

How is anyone supposed to debug file system code in 2.5 when its known
that it will trash data on some disks anyway ? I'd like to see you cite
a paragraph where the IDE device is required to flush the data back
promptly, or on power off. I'd like to see what you plan to do about all
the IBM disks you plan to mistreat and give bad blocks that require a
reformat ?

You are claiming this repeatidly. But please just send me the f*cking
strace and I will beleve you. Or point me at the corresponding docs.
I see no special purpose Win2000 microdrive drivers on IBM.
And I suppose you don't even *own* an IBM MicroDrive. And please
note as well that I didn't tell: "I will never ever include such a
thing if it's required". What I was about is that there is *no* reason
to not include Pavels stuff, even if it leaks, which I know very well,
some required functionality by now. Just to satisfy your imagination of how
broken an implementation of the ATA firmware could be isn't a reaons.
If you have a damn Micro Drive, then feel free to add the required wakeup code -
you are all welcome. But please don't implement it as cat jksadfgkjhasdjkf >
/proc/some/wried/stuff.

For gods sake:

1. How is Win2000 going to work then?

2. I assume (modulo mistakes) that writers of firmware
are just not stupid and implement the cache as a write behind buffer and not
as a MESI cache snooping on the drives bus. But I never claimed
that I'm relying on this assumption in any way!

3. Why are *all the other* ATA drivers in different operating systems
such easy on this matter and generally much simpler leaner and more
readable then the Linux one?!

It's not like one couldn't compare... see for example http://www.ata-atapi.com

Fsck let's cite the IBM appilcation notes about the Micro Drive
found here http://www.storage.ibm.com/hdd/micro/appguide.htm

The IBM microdrive supports the write cache feature. When the write cache
feature is enabled, the
microdrive posts a command completion for the write command as soon as all the
write data has
been transferred to the microdrive's cache buffer. The host system, then, can
prepare for the next
command while the microdrive performs actual disk writing off-line. The write
cache feature also
contributes to the host system's battery life by shortening the amount of time
for write operation.

Because the write command completion does not correspond with the actual
disk-write completion,
the host system is required to take special care not to lose supply power to the
microdrive so that the
data that is cached but not yet written to disk will no be lost.

To ensure that the actual disk-writing of the cached data has been completed, it
is recommended that
a host system issues a `Standby Immediate' command and waits for a command
complete from the
microdrive.

The cached data will be lost when :
1. A host system cuts off the power for the microdrive
2. A user ejects the microdrive
before the microdrive completes writing cached data to disk.

The microdrive cleans (flushes out) whole cached data upon command completion of
Standby Immediate. If
the host system enables the write cache feature, it is strongly recommended to
issue Standby Immediate
before power removed, system shutdown or ejection of the microdrive.

The write cache feature is disabled at power-on reset. It is possible for the
host system to enable this feature
by issuing Set Features (Enable Write Cache). Because the microdrive may be used
with a host system
without such care for data integrity, IBM insists that the write cache feature
should not be a power-on default.

* Consideration for a time-out value when using the write cache

The microdrive can queue several consecutive write commands. Even if the host
system receives a
command completion, the microdrive may still be performing disk writing for
queued commands, each of
which could take up to 7.5 seconds as previously mentioned if an error has
occurred and an error
recovery routine starts.
This delay eventually surfaces when processing a first non-queued command during
write cache.

For example, suppose the microdrive queues 2 write commands and each command
takes 7.5 seconds
for some extreme reason. Then if the microdrive receives Read Sectors, which is
a non-queue command,
it will be processed just after disk writing is completed. In the worst case,
delay for the Read Sectors
would be close to 15 seconds (7.5 x 2).

In light of the stuation above, IBM recommends 30 seconds as a time-out value
if the host system uses
the write cache feature.


And apparently we see that there is nothing special about them... Just don't
enable the write cache and all should be well with a timeout of 30 seconds.

No because Microsoft implement the bloody standard in the first place. It

I've got a nice working 2.4 system thank you. I don't have time to rewrite
the IDE layer at the moment. The fact that every 2.5 I've tried either
crashed or corrupted my filesystems the moment I did anything load related
with it (eg cerberus) convinces me its not something I have time to even
consider yet.

Because its standards compliant. It wasnt written by a half clued wannabe
who has never read the manuals and can do nothing but call people who have
a "liar". And a standards compliant implementation does all the right power
management commands. Win 98 didnt quite get it right and you'll find one

For the other reason - they are better written. But a driven can be both
well written and correct. Its quite apparently you don't care about "correct".
If your design is not rigorously following the standard (plus the usual
amount of vendor got it wrong slop) then bad things will occur.

I'm not arguing that Andre's code is good, or that it doesn't need
some serious redesign. I'm just suggesting it would be a good idea if whoever
wrote it new what the hell the were doing, or at least spent the time to
understand the ATA documentation and implement it.

Now contrary to your claim I do have an ibm microdrive, do you have the
ATA specs, have you ever read them ? I really doubt it.

So what the heck. Do you thing it will happen overnight!?
Just see how much time it took to get the init tables into
some reasonable shape... and the road is still ahead on the
simple issue of getting them out of ide-pci.c finally!!!
There is only one way of cooperation here - sharing even not quite finished but
not broken code - and I still hold up that this is the case with
Pavels code.

It wasn't a claim but just a suspiction. So this is cleared.
But apparently there is no special IBM command using taskfile
to do magic things to it. So therefore it's still valid:
your example was indeed a mock-up.

For your information: I have read the standard papers and comments
to them. But the application notes from IBM and actual code
from different operating systems gives a much better formal
description of what is needed anyway. Or are you going to claim
that narrative languaue is more precise then actual C code?

It appears that you're confusing an implementation of a specification with the
specification itself. The specification wins out, and therefore you can't
just copy the behvaiour of another implementation.

There are standard commands for power management, and for cache flush.

That depends if the C code is right.

If you are going to compare Linux to Mircosoft code you need to know what
the other side does. Does reseting the bus between commands ring a bell?

Does the fact that MS XP Service Pack #2 having as similar taskfile
command passthrough method mean anything ... Oh Oh, but there is no
Service Pack #1 how could one know this ... guess my friend some of us are
in the business and you are trying to get there and I wish you success.

Sheesh, you are not even capable of reading the standard which I help to
co-author and mold. It is a standard about "DEVICES" not about "HOSTS".
For a person citing MicroSoft Windows you are clueless to there erratium
about a HOST SHALL flush cache before a spin down. Your darwin Linus
model is why WHQL exists for the other OS.

Were you ever a MDDK users? It really sounds like it.

So what is your point, did you just figure this out.

Reread all of the document, all 500+ pages and figure out the rules
sequence, before you start trying to bible bang it.

Maybe that is why YOU and PAVEL are not getting this suspend to disk
write, you can not follow the rules.
ATA-ATAPI ~= LINUS, it is a DICTATORSHIP also. If you can not follow the
rules you get ABORTED, or CORRUPTED. What part is not clear?
See I got aborted by Linus, you have been corrupted.

Well of it does not complete you do not let the suspend complete and you
give ACPI the finger and provide the enduser a way to override the
ruleset. Let ROOT screw the system, but be a "GOOD HOST" and prevent it
by default.

How are you going to delay commands unless metadata hardware cache is

The SPEC does does not address CFA hardware, goto CFA to get their ruleset.

Quite a few controllers enable the write cache in their bootstrap before

Just "don't enable" is not an option.

It does not need to be there, but since the truth needs to be known.
You got in the way with a cosmetic blowjob to Linus while I was trying to
fix the bottom transport layer. Since I never got to finish, I left it to
you hands to to finish. Even after telling Linus about the problem he
still does not get it.

Oh I fixed the problem as far as the hardware atomic segment goes, I am
waiting to see if you understand the problem and can fix it. The real
problem is Linus ... because he can not or will not see the issue.
Nor will he listen to the issue anymore.

Lame, could have been fixed w/ a know solution.
The main reason for delaying this feature set was to have an means to
force open spec for most of the hardware in PATA.

No, mine has there real test base, I goto there Lab people and submit
examples and questions and learn. I doubt they will listen to you reading
your code base, since you have claimed taskfile is wrong. It was
developed in concert with IBM.

DFT = Drive Fault Tolerance

It is an IBM utility which performs extensive diagnostics of a hard drive.
At present this is a DOS program which is used via a dos boot disk.

Have look at the IBM website where you can download this (you can get a dd
image of the boot floppy from there, too, if you don't have Windows).

The idea behind native DFT is to be able to perform drive diagnostics from
within the OS without rebooting with a DOS disk and tying up the system
for hours during the checks. The advantages of this combined with IDE/SCSI
hot swap are strikingly obvious...

The utility also returns a special fault code which in combination with
the ibm website allows you to return a faulty disk and obtain a
replacement very easily.

Best regards,

Anton

Having recently RMA'ed an IBM drive, I can say that DFT = Drive
Fitness Test, IBM's low-level diagnostics. And that makes sense in
this context, their DFT software would need taskfile access.

Not quite if it still works... or if nobody is implementing
the standard up to word, becouse for example everybody was
deriving the drivers (or let's say it clear: his TCP/IP stack)
from the same basic source code and finally the hardware adjusted
to the reality instead of the standard.
Or if the standard was in fact just an aftertought after some
"refference implementation".
And anyway it's hard to argue that code is formally tighter then
narrative. (I didn't argue whatever it's formally correct).
That's a rather trivial fact.

But anyway I think you understand those issues and it's a bit
"theoretical" in respect to the ATA stuff right now.

Peace? I was basically just alarmed by the fact that you sounded a bit
discouraging to Pavel. (BTW.> The flush part I have already just added to my

Sorry there is a mix up, since MicroDrives are fixed disk that miss report

Fact is you are a lame coder. Whatever your other competences
are - I don't know. (Plese note this doesn't imply that
I'm a "master coder".)

Perhaps the only equivalent betwen Linus and me is that we are
both from a cold part of the world, called the Baltic area ;-)
You have even offered to me to provide a stripped down version
of the driver without the *current* task file implementation yourself.
I'm still awaiting it. Or was it your "invisible friend" talking
that time again?

I can really really understand why Pavel is just ignoring you...

But you know what? It's really hard to take someone
serious who is publically calling me doing a blow-job on Linus.
You would be surprised: I don't exchange *that* much
with Linus. I send him patches - he applies them that's all.
And that's all that I expect. What's driving me is the
encouragement from other people just that... and of course
the fun at tinkering with the stuff.

BTW.> I have looked at the contributors lists of some recent
ATA deocument's and couldn't find your name anywhere there.
Maybe you did just the spell checking for them...?
Or mind you could, in a rare moment of clear mind,
send me a pointer? URL perhaps? That would be

You got in there and give Linus the comsetic changes that were in the
works early. I asked you hold off because there was a transport layer
problem. You agreed. Next thing I know you turn the flipside on me.

The ANSI/NCITS ATA Standard documents lack proper definition what
a "task file" or "taskfile" is ! ATA-1, -2, -3 don't mention this (at least acroread
didn't find),
ATAPI-4 has 3 references but no definition. This is a serious omission for a
well-written standard !
Andre, will this be corrected in some newer standard you participate? ( Don't know
about ata-5/6 yet)

These two meanings certainly explain some confusion about "taskfile":
1) The IDE register set (e.g. 0x1f0-0x1f7) used by a special state-machine (e.g.
ATAPI)
2) Andres implementation to export the "task file" to user mode
(as in his patches which were refused by Linus)

Andre, your approach to "parse" the takfile access and let only known commands
through
must be weighted against a "generic" taskfile ioctl, where _I_ give all needed
state-machine information
(incl. state-machine as needed) to serve my reuqest.

Currently your taskfile access is hardcoded in tables in your ide patches and this is

inflexible (e.g. cannot support future commands, unknown at the time of your writing)
!

Your "case" structures and accompanying code are considered kernel bloat, because
it can be done in user code (with a "generic ioctl" and a "generic task file state
machine" which surely
can be extracted from your patch).

Right. But that can be already handled by the hdparm utility at boot.
Please note as well that the controller we are talking about
is basically the CardBus PCI-ISA bridge kind of ;-).
It doesn't do much setup. (Fingers corssed becouse I didn't

Maybe your invisible friend wisperid that to you: but
I DIDN'T AGREE TO HOLD OFF. The changes thus far are quite
trivial and should be a piece of cake to adjust too
for an averegely capable programmer wich you are not
and which is the main problem with you cherishing
the driver in question. I'm clear enough now? Or does
one have to be a psychiatrist to talk to you?

More proof that you can not read the documents handed to you.

Listed between Iomega and LSI Logic

But know I will not allow you to torque me anymore.
You will get a patch that effectively removes the patch submitted to for
2.5.3. Unfortunately all the functionality will be gone too, so the
driver will be crippled again and that is saddening.

And vendor specific commands which they don't wan't the world to know
about and the list would be complete. Anyway thank you for this
well done clarification.

The worsest thing about them is that they are translating
the plain commands to some obscure internal values and vice
versa. This is making it a bit tedious to remove them directly.
And it's in esp. error prone.

The fortunate thing is that the state machine points can
be really easly identifyed. The unfortunate thing is
that there is simple that much plain poor C coding in the
drivers code that it will just take time until one can get
at this. Please see the notes inside my patches about
buffer overruns... methods called twice and modularization as well
as comments about functions passing timeout pointers, which are
taken by reusing the IRQ code path and so on...

Martin,

Please calm down.

When you're calm, go to the URL Andre gave, download the document and *read*
it. You *will* find his name there, whether he was there, and what vote he
cast.

How do I know? I've done just that.

That is only a list of voters over the document there.
This doesn't imply that you co-authored it.
And finally this isn't a voting over the standard itself
but rather about the submission of a draft to the
standard body.

(Clear thinking can be pesky isn't it?)

Thank you very much right now I can do a diff between 2.5.3 and 2.5.4
myself actually. I would be rather interrested in the
"plain interface" without any parsing in between.
(Which is the reason I didn't remove the parse code thus far...).

Umm... By what magic? The entire interface _is_ root-only, isn't it?

Well why did you not object to the SCSI sequencer in the past.
Your argument proves that hardware venders will not like Linux and the

No argument there.

Andre, get a fucking clue. If you claim that your "filtering" provides
any security - you are making fradulent claims. End of story.

Fact of life: process with EUID 0 can bypass your "protection" easily.
IF filtering is useful for some reasons, these reasons have nothing to
security.

Again, by mentioning security considerations among the reasons you
are harming yourself - it's kinda hard to take you seriously if you do
not understand the basic stuff. It's not like we didn't have that
conversation before...

I've heard some talk about drives that turn it on

Windows 2000 doesn't even get this right 100% of the time either:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q281672
(I've seen this bug corrupt data in real life -- it's not just
theoretical. The really unfortunate part is that Win2K also forces the
write cache on, even if you try to turn it off, due to another bug.)

AFAIK a fix for this is planned for Win2K Service Pack 3, and WinXP works
properly (in this regard anyway) out-of-the-box.

Hmm. I stopped believing in the usefulness of the IBM DFT after my IBM

the DFT said that everything was OK later when I ran it ...

No, AFAIK.

You need to be able to tell the kernel not to touch the drive during the
testing or a lot of fun things might happen... (I would assume.)

Oh and I was brain dead when I wrote what DFT stands for. Sorry. It is of
course DFT = Drive Fitness Test and the DFT utility boot floppy I mentioned
can be downloaded from: http://www.storage.ibm.com/hdd/support/download.htm

Has worked well for a couple of times... (the extended tests anyway, the
basic test always succeeds for me). DFT was detecting problems (and I was
running it as I was having problems in Linux), then I upgraded the firmware
and it no longer detected problems (and the drives have worked happily ever
after). So I guess it just not perfect but it certainly worked for me.

How can you read that recommendation into what you just quoted? IBM says
use 30 sec if you enable write buffers, why would eliminate the long delay
but use the slow timeout anyway? To slow retry to a crawl? It would seem
obvious to do one thing or the other, but not to take all possible action
to make things crawl. I suggest that the obvious solution is use a
sensible timeout without write buffers to be really safe, or to get best
performance use the write buffers and force a flush at a sensible point,
somewhat like flushing buffers to disk with bdflush. There are already
spindown timers and such in the drivers, this isn't a "whole new thing."

Since we have the ability to let the user set this now, I see no reason
not to let the user make the choice, Linux is about choice.

Finally, about copying other drivers: to quote my youngest, "yuckie-poo!"
Drivers should be written to the standard, with reality dictating that it
is sometimes required to write to the hardware when you absolutely MUST
use non-compliant hardware. To copy code from another driver seems like a
lack or either ability or committment.

Happened to me *more than once*. Every single time: Drive has what
looks like "Surface Errors" to the OS, SMART thinks the drive is
dandy, DFT thinks the drive is dandy and after using the DFT "erase"
feature it would even work (on the whole surface) again. Question only
remains for how long. My dealer usually gives me a replacement disk
when I tell him "this one's bogus" even if it doesn't show any
immediate errors in DFT and similar tests, but I'm sure not everyone's
that lucky.

I don't usually bash manufacturers, but with recent (> 10GB) IBM
ATA-33+ drives I've experienced this behaviour in well above 50% of
all units I've seen. The MTBF on their SCA LVD ones doesn't make me
squirm with delight either, but those a) don't lie about being broken
and b) tend to be easier to replace.


So long,
Joe

This is S3/S4 support. Not used during normal operation. S3/S4 without this
is as dangerous as "oops, we've written wrong data to wrong place, without
even knowing that". With this, the problem is "maybe your hdd is not initialized
properly, so you lost ability to talk to it".

It will not. This is only used when ACPI suspend-to-disk/suspend-to-ram
is used (and at that time, you have worse problems than IDE driver).

Actually, problem is not yet there, because current S3 sleep is so broken
it is *very* likely to crash your box (and thereby save your data). But when

He is not breaking anything.

Just now linux will happily suspend in the middle of read command, then
wake up, get spurious interrupt, say "I'm happy read finished", and corrupt
data. What's there is first step in getting it right, and more steps are
needed.

2.4.18 you can't use S3/S4, so it is definitely NOP for you. Will not eat

Subject: [PATCH] IDE 21

If I was to give this patch a name it would be:

"Vojtech Pavlik unleashed from the chains".

So credit where credit is due :-).

BTW> There never was any ide-clean-20.
I have compressed it just to get it through linux-kernel,
becouse I would rather like it to reach any interrested party.
Please excuse me for the inconvenience.

Anyway here follows the change log:

Mon Mar 11 23:48:28 CET 2002 ide-clean-21

- Swallow rewritten amd74xx host chip setup code from Vojtech Pavlik. We can
revert it easly if it turns out to be a bad thing. However the code looks
quite sane to me. In esp. it doesn't containg that many magic numbers.

- Clean stale white spaces in ide-timing.h tirvial fix.

- Make ide_release_dma return void. It's value is never used anyway.

- Swallow more timing setup code cleanup by Vojtech Pavlik. Apply some
cosmetics to it. Port opti621 to the new setup code.

- Kill abuse of ide_do_reset() on error return paths for atapi floppy tape and
cd-rom devices. Just stop them. This gives better changes that defect
removable media will not cause suddenly broken timings on hard discs
containing system data! Even then comments in ide_do_reset() admit, that
resetting the whole channel can have adverse effects on the second interface
on this channel. And I have too frequently observed linux struggling on
defect cd-rom for a far too long time to wish it to continue.

Oh did I forget to say that the corresponding "how can I break my system fast
and reliable" ioctl is gone as well?

Removing it recovered the fact that the CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDEDMA_TIMEOUT is
completely bogous. I have removed this option therefore as well, because it's
playing the same wrack havoc on the devices if enabled. This cat has been in
an unfinished and *unfunctional* state anyway.

- Actually add physical suspend code to the power handling code. Still the
resume code isn't finished just jet. This is all subject to change at the
point in time when we get to proper command queueing.
I think however that Pavel will be interrested in tidding this bit up...

- Resync with 2.5.7-pre1.

For bugs as well. :(

In the FIT macro in ide-timing.h the argument got swapped because of a
typo. All timings generated for VIA and AMD chips are wrong because of
that. Safe, though, but slow.

i believe the next debian (after the one currently stabilizing for
release) has "real" use of capabilities as a major goal although that
was hearsay and may be entirely false. the amount of work involved is
not insignificant

it'd certainly be a good thing to see. after all these years of slowly
converting things to use CAP_SYS_* instead of uid==0 i certainly don't
want that effort to be wasted.
