<content type='text'>
struct timeval will overflow on 32-bit systems in y2038 and is being
removed from the kernel. Replace the use of struct timeval and
do_gettimeofday() with ktime_get_real_seconds() which provides a 64-bit
seconds value and is y2038 safe.

gdth driver requires changes in two areas:

1) gdth_store_event() loads two u32 timestamp fields for ioctl GDTIOCTL_EVENT

   These timestamp fields are part of struct gdth_evt_str used for passing
   event data to userspace. At the first instance of an event we do
   (first_stamp=last_stamp="current time"). If that same event repeats,
   we do (last_stamp="current time") AND increment same_count to indicate
   how many times the event has repeated since first_stamp.

   This patch replaces the use of timeval and do_gettimeofday() with
   ktime_get_real_seconds() cast to u32 to extend the timestamp fields
   to y2106.

   Beyond y2106, the userspace tools (ie. RAID controller monitors) can
   work around the time rollover and this driver would still not need to
   change.

   Alternative: The alternative approach is to introduce a new ioctl in gdth
   with the u32 time fields defined as u64.  This would require userspace
   changes now, but not in y2106.

2)  gdth_show_info() calculates elapsed time using u32 first_stamp

    It is adding events with timestamps to a seq_file.  Timestamps are
    calculated as the "current time" minus the first_stamp.

    This patch replaces the use of timeval and do_gettimeofday() with
    ktime_get_real_seconds() cast to u32 to calculate the timestamp.

    This elapsed time calculation is safe even when the time wraps (beyond
    y2106) due to how unsigned subtraction works. A comment has been added
    to the code to indicate this safety.

    Alternative: This piece itself doesn't warrant an alternative, but
    if we do introduce a new structure &amp; ioctl with u64 timestamps, this
    would change accordingly.

SPC-3 defines SERVICE ACTION IN(12) and SERVICE ACTION IN(16).
So rename SERVICE_ACTION_IN to SERVICE_ACTION_IN_16 to be
consistent with SPC and to allow for better distinction.

<title>scsi: don't set tagging state from scsi_adjust_queue_depth</title>

<content type='text'>
Remove the tagged argument from scsi_adjust_queue_depth, and just let it
handle the queue depth.  For most drivers those two are fairly separate,
given that most modern drivers don't care about the SCSI "tagged" status
of a command at all, and many old drivers allow queuing of multiple
untagged commands in the driver.

Instead we start out with the -&gt;simple_tags flag set before calling
-&gt;slave_configure, which is how all drivers actually looking at
-&gt;simple_tags except for one worke anyway.  The one other case looks
broken, but I've kept the behavior as-is for now.

Except for that we only change -&gt;simple_tags from the -&gt;change_queue_type,
and when rejecting a tag message in a single driver, so keeping this
churn out of scsi_adjust_queue_depth is a clear win.

Now that the usage of scsi_adjust_queue_depth is more obvious we can
also remove all the trivial instances in -&gt;slave_alloc or -&gt;slave_configure
that just set it to the cmd_per_lun default.

<title>[SCSI] Disable WRITE SAME for RAID and virtual host adapter drivers</title>

Some host adapters do not pass commands through to the target disk
directly. Instead they provide an emulated target which may or may not
accurately report its capabilities. In some cases the physical device
characteristics are reported even when the host adapter is processing
commands on the device's behalf. This can lead to adapter firmware hangs
or excessive I/O errors.

This patch disables WRITE SAME for devices connected to host adapters
that provide an emulated target. Driver writers can disable WRITE SAME
by setting the no_write_same flag in the host adapter template.

<title>[SCSI] gdth: Remove buggy ROM handling</title>

<content type='text'>
The ROM address handling in gdth_init_pci() is useless and possibly
dangerous.  This patch removes it.

"pci_resource_start(pdev, 8)" is not well-defined.  PCI resources 0-5 are
standard PCI BARs and 6 is the expansion ROM.  Resource 8 is either an
SR-IOV BAR (if CONFIG_PCI_IOV=y, resources 7-12 are SR-IOV BARs) or a
bridge window (resources 7-10).

The GDT device is neither an SR-IOV device nor a bridge, so in either case
resource 8 should be zero since struct pci_dev is allocated with kzalloc().

It is illegal for a driver to write an arbitrary address to the ROM BAR
because it has no way of knowing whether the ROM will conflict with another
device.

I think the only effect of the code being removed was to:

  1) Enable the ROM at 0xFEFF0000 (possibly causing a conflict with
     another device)
  2) Delay one millisecond
  3) Write zero to the ROM BAR, disabling it

I doubt the delay is needed, but I left it since it seems innocuous.

CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option.  As a result, the __dev*
markings need to be removed.

This change removes the use of __devinit, __devexit_p, __devinitdata,
__devinitconst, and __devexit from these drivers.

Based on patches originally written by Bill Pemberton, but redone by me
in order to handle some of the coding style issues better, by hand.
