commit a63f53e34db8b49675448d03ae324f6c5bc04fe6 upstream.

Since commit dd22f551 "block: Change direct_access calling convention",
the device size calculation in dcssblk_direct_access() is off-by-one.
This results in bdev_direct_access() always returning -ENXIO because the
returned value is not page aligned.

Fix this by adding 1 to the dev_sz calculation.

commit 9ba333dc55cbb9523553df973adb3024d223e905 upstream.

When a device is in a status where CIO has killed all I/O by itself the
interrupt for a clear request may not contain an irb to determine the
clear function. Instead it contains an error pointer -EIO.
This was ignored by the DASD int_handler leading to a hanging device
waiting for a clear interrupt.

Handle -EIO error pointer correctly for requests that are clear pending and
treat the clear as successful.

commit ce0c12b633846a47e103842149a5bac2e5d261ec upstream.

git commit 1ec2772e0c3c ("s390/diag: add a statistic for diagnose
calls") added function calls to gather diagnose statistics.

In case of the dasd diag driver the function call was added between a
register asm statement which initialized register r2 and the inline
assembly itself.  The function call clobbers the contents of register
r2 and therefore the diag 0x250 call behaves in a more or less random
way.

Fix this by extracting the function call into a separate function like
we do everywhere else.

Commit ca369d51b ("sd: Fix device-imposed transfer length limits")
introduced a new queue limit max_dev_sectors which limits the maximum
sectors for requests. The default value leads to small dasd requests
and therefor to a performance drop.
Set the max_dev_sectors value to the same value as the max_hw_sectors
to use the maximum available request size for DASD devices.

commit 020bf042e5b397479c1174081b935d0ff15d1a64 upstream.

The channel checks the specified length and the provided amount of
data for CCWs and provides an incorrect length error if the size does
not match. Under z/VM with simulation activated the length may get
changed. Having the suppress length indication bit set is stated as
good CCW coding practice and avoids errors under z/VM.

Path verification is either done via dasd_eckd_read_conf() which is
triggered during online processing and resume or via
do_path_verification_work() which is triggered after path events.
The dasd_eckd_read_conf() version added paths unconditionally and did
not check if the path mask was empty. This led to devices having the
disconnected stop flag set but a valid path mask. So they where not
working although they had paths validated successfully. After a resume
this state could even not be solved with additional paths added.

Fix by checking for an empty path mask in dasd_eckd_read_conf() and
clearing the device stop bits for a newly added channel path.

For a valid PAV assignment the DASD driver needs to notice possibly
changed configuration data. Thus the failing of read configuration
data should also fail the device restore to prevent invalid PAV
assignment. The failed device may get restored after additional paths
get available later on.
If the restore fails after the device was added to the lcu alias
handling it needs to be removed from the alias handling before exiting
the restore function.

<content type='text'>
The configuration data is stored per path and also the first valid
configuration data per device. When dasd_eckd_read_conf is called
again after a path got lost the device configuration data is cleared
but possibly not the per path configuration data. This might lead to a
double free when the lost path gets operational again.

Fix by clearing all per path configuration data when the first valid
configuration data is received and stored.
