With the use of the in-kernel osd library. Implement read/write
of data from/to osd-objects according to information specified
in the objects-layout.
Support for stripping over mirrors with a received stripe_unit.
There are however a few constrains which are not supported:
1. Stripe Unit must be a multiple of PAGE_SIZE
2. stripe length (stripe_unit * number_of_stripes) can not be
bigger then 32bit.
Also support raid-groups and partial-layout. Partial-layout is
when not all the groups are received on the line, addressing
only a partial range of the file.
TODO:
Only raid0! raid 4/5/6 support will come at later stage
A none supported layout will send IO through the MDS

When a new layout is received in objio_alloc_lseg all device_ids
referenced are retrieved. The device information is queried for from MDS
and then the osd_device is looked-up from the osd-initiator library. The
devices are cached in a per-mount-point list, for later use. At unmount
all devices are "put" back to the library.

API for retrieving device information given a device_id.
TODO: The device cache can get big. Cap its size. Keep an LRU and start

objlayout_alloc_lseg prepares an xdr_stream and calls the
raid engins objio_alloc_lseg() to allocate a private
pnfs_layout_segment.
objio_osd.c::objio_alloc_lseg() uses passed xdr_stream to
decode and store the layout_segment information in an
objio_segment struct, using the pnfs_osd_xdr.h API for
the actual parsing the layout xdr.
objlayout_free_lseg calls objio_free_lseg() to free the
allocated space.

A pNFS client auto-negotiates a lot of features (minorversion level,
pNFS layout type, etc.). This is convenient, but makes certain kinds of
failures hard for a user to detect.
For example, if the client falls back on 4.0, or falls back to MDS IO
because the user didn't connect to the right iscsi disks before
mounting, the only symptoms may be reduced performance, which may not be
noticed till long after the actual failure, and may be difficult for a
user to diagnose.
However, such "failures" may also be perfectly normal in some cases, so
we don't want to spam the system logs with them.
One approach would be to put some more information into
/proc/self/mountstats.

Commit b826291c, "drivercore/dt: add a match table pointer to struct
device" added an of_match pointer to struct device to cache the
of_match_table entry discovered at driver match time. This was unsafe
because matching is not an atomic operation with probing a driver. If
two or more drivers are attempted to be matched to a driver at the
same time, then the cached matching entry pointer could get
overwritten.
This patch reverts the of_match cache pointer and reworks all users to
call of_match_device() directly instead.

If two drivers are probing devices at the same time, both will write

Only write the result if the device matches.
In a thread titled "SBus devices sometimes detected, sometimes not",
Meelis reported his SBus hme was not detected about 50% of the time.
From the debug suggested by Grant it was obvious another driver matched
some devices between the call to match the hme and the hme discovery
failling.

configfs_readdir() will use the existing inode numbers of inodes in the
dcache, but it makes them up for attribute files that aren't currently
instantiated. There is a race where a closing attribute file can be
tearing down at the same time as configfs_readdir() is trying to get its
inode number.
We want to get the inode number of open attribute files, because they
should match while instantiated. We can't lock down the transition
where dentry->d_inode is set to NULL, so we just check for NULL there.
We can, however, ensure that an inode we find isn't iput() in
configfs_d_iput() until after we've accessed it.

When configfs is faking mkdir() on its subsystem or default group
objects, it starts by adding a negative dentry. It then tries to
instantiate the group. If that should fail, it must clean up after
itself.
I was using d_delete() here, but configfs_attach_group() promises to
return an empty dentry on error. d_delete() explodes with the entry
dentry. Let's try d_drop() instead. The unhashing is what we want for
our dentry.

Let's check a scenario:
1. blk_delay_queue(q, SCSI_QUEUE_DELAY);
2. blk_run_queue_async();
the second one will became a noop, because q->delay_work already has
WORK_STRUCT_PENDING_BIT set, so the delayed work will still run after
SCSI_QUEUE_DELAY. But blk_run_queue_async actually hopes the delayed
work runs immediately.
Fix this by doing a cancel on potentially pending delayed work
before queuing an immediate run of the workqueue.

os_dump_core() uses abort() to terminate UML in case of an fatal error.
glibc's abort() calls raise(SIGABRT) which makes use of tgkill().
tgkill() has no effect within UML's kernel threads because they are not
pthreads. As fallback abort() executes an invalid instruction to
terminate the process. Therefore UML gets killed by SIGSEGV and leaves a
ugly log entry in the host's kernel ring buffer.
To get rid of this we use our own abort routine.

put_unaligned_le16(temp, &target[j]); is never called for any
codepoint the goes via the 'default' switch statement. As a result
we put just zero (or maybe uninitialized) bytes into the target
buffer.

Trying to enable the local APIC timer on early K8 revisions
uncovers a number of other issues with it, in conjunction with
the C1E enter path on AMD. Fixing those causes much more churn

don't enable it on K8 at all, falling back to the original

This reverts commit e20a2d205c05cef6b5783df339a7d54adeb50962, as it crashes
certain boxes with specific AMD CPU models.
Moving the lower endpoint of the Erratum 400 check to accomodate
earlier K8 revisions (A-E) opens a can of worms which is simply
not worth to fix properly by tweaking the errata checking
framework:
* missing IntPenging MSR on revisions < CG cause #GP:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=130541471818831
* makes earlier revisions use the LAPIC timer instead of the C1E
idle routine which switches to HPET, thus not waking up in
deeper C-states:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2011/4/24/20

Commit c21e6beb removed our queue request_fn re-enter
protection, and defaulted to always running the queues from
kblockd to be safe. This was a known potential slow down,
but should be safe.
Unfortunately this is causing big performance regressions for
some, so we need to improve this logic. Looking into the details
of the re-enter, the real issue is on requeue of requests.
Requeue of requests upon seeing a BUSY condition from the device
ends up re-running the queue, causing traces like this:
scsi_request_fn()
scsi_dispatch_cmd()
scsi_queue_insert()
__scsi_queue_insert()
scsi_run_queue()
scsi_request_fn()
...
potentially causing the issue we want to avoid. So special
case the requeue re-run of the queue, but improve it to offload
the entire run of local queue and starved queue from a single
workqueue callback. This is a lot better than potentially
kicking off a workqueue run for each device seen.
This also fixes the issue of the local device going into recursion,
since the above mentioned commit never moved that queue run out
of line.
