commit 1c40279960bcd7d52dbdf1d466b20d24b99176c8 upstream.

lib/glob.c provides a new glob_match() function, with arguments in
(pattern, string) order.  It replaced a private function with arguments
in (string, pattern) order, but I didn't swap the call site...

The result was the entire ATA blacklist was effectively disabled.

The lesson for today is "I f***ed up *how* badly *how* many months ago?",
er, I mean "Nobody Tests RC Kernels On Legacy Hardware".

This was not a subtle break, but it made it through an entire RC
cycle unreported, presumably because all the people doing testing
have full-featured hardware.

(FWIW, the reason for the argument swap was because fnmatch() does it that
way, and for a while implementing a full fnmatch() was being considered.)

Fixes: 428ac5fc056e0 (libata: Use glob_match from lib/glob.c)

Crucial M550 may cause data corruption on queued trims and is
blacklisted.  The pattern used for it fails to match 1TB one as the
capacity section will be four chars instead of three.  Widen the
pattern.

The function may be useful for other drivers, so export it.  (Suggested
by Tejun Heo.)

Note that I inverted the return value of glob_match; returning true on
match seemed to make more sense.

1871ee134b73 ("libata: support the ata host which implements a queue

Fix it by introducing ata_host-&gt;n_tags which is initialized to

scsi_host_template-&gt;can_queue in ata_host_register() for !SAS ones.
As SAS hosts are never registered, this will give them the same
ATA_MAX_QUEUE - 1 as before.  Note that we can't use
scsi_host-&gt;can_queue directly for SAS hosts anyway as they can go
higher than the libata maximum.

The sata on fsl mpc8315e is broken after the commit 8a4aeec8d2d6
("libata/ahci: accommodate tag ordered controllers"). The reason is
that the ata controller on this SoC only implement a queue depth of
16. When issuing the commands in tag order, all the commands in tag
16 ~ 31 are mapped to tag 0 unconditionally and then causes the sata
malfunction. It makes no senses to use a 32 queue in software while
the hardware has less queue depth. So consider the queue depth
implemented by the hardware when requesting a command tag.

Queued trim only works for some users with MU05 firmware.  Revert to
blacklisting all firmware versions.

Introduced by commit d121f7d0cbb8 ("libata: Update queued trim blacklist
for M5x0 drives") which this effectively reverts, while retaining the
blacklisting of M550.

See

    https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=71371

for reports of trouble with MU05 firmware.

When a ZPODD device is unbound via sysfs, the ACPI notify handler
is not removed. This causes panics as observed in Bug #74601. The
panic only happens when the wake happens from outside the kernel
(i.e. inserting a media or pressing a button). Add a loop to
ata_port_detach which loops through the port's devices and checks
if zpodd is enabled, if so call zpodd_exit.

The AHCI spec allows implementations to issue commands in tag order
rather than FIFO order:

	5.3.2.12 P:SelectCmd
	HBA sets pSlotLoc = (pSlotLoc + 1) mod (CAP.NCS + 1)
	or HBA selects the command to issue that has had the
	PxCI bit set to '1' longer than any other command
	pending to be issued.

The result is that commands posted sequentially (time-wise) may play out
of sequence when issued by hardware.

This behavior has likely been hidden by drives that arrange for commands
to complete in issue order.  However, it appears recent drives (two from
different vendors that we have found so far) inflict out-of-order
completions as a matter of course.  So, we need to take care to maintain
ordered submission, otherwise we risk triggering a drive to fall out of
sequential-io automation and back to random-io processing, which incurs
large latency and degrades throughput.

This issue was found in simple benchmarks where QD=2 seq-write
performance was 30-50% *greater* than QD=32 seq-write performance.

Tagging for -stable and making the change globally since it has a low
risk-to-reward ratio.  Also, word is that recent versions of an unnamed
OS also does it this way now.  So, drives in the field are already
experienced with this tag ordering scheme.
