<title>[SCSI] ses: requesting a fault indication</title>

Noticed that when the sysfs interface of the SCSI SES
driver was used to request a fault indication the LED
flashed but the buzzer didn't sound. So it was doing
what REQUEST IDENT (locate) should do.

Changelog:
   - fix the setting of REQUEST FAULT for the device slot
     and array device slot elements in the enclosure control
     diagnostic page
   - note the potentially defective code that reads the
     FAULT SENSED and FAULT REQUESTED bits from the enclosure
     status diagnostic page

The attached patch is against git/scsi-misc-2.6

There have been many complaints that an enclosure with subenclosures
isn't attached to by the ses driver.   Until now, though, no-one had
been willing to provide access to one.

Subenclosures are added simply by flattening the tree (i.e. all
subenclosure devices show up under the one main device).  This may have
consequences if the naming is only unique per subenclosure, but that's a
bug for another day.  The tested array had no page 7, so no device
naming at all.  It also only had the disk devices on one of its
subenclosures (all the others had power, fans, temperature and various
sensors), so testing of this is fairly rudimentary.

enclosure page 7 gives us the "pretty" names of the enclosure slots.
Without a page 7, we can still use the enclosure code as long as we
make up numeric names for the slots. Unfortunately, the current code
fails to add any devices because the check for page 10 is in the wrong
place if we have no page 7.  Fix it so that devices show up even if
the enclosure has no page 7.

<title>include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h</title>

<id>5a0e3ad6af8660be21ca98a971cd00f331318c05</id>

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -&gt; slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

The few lines below the kfree of hdr_buf may go to the label err_free
which will also free hdr_buf.  The most straightforward solution seems to
be to just move the kfree of hdr_buf after these gotos.

A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as
follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// &lt;smpl&gt;

expression E1;
iterator I;
statement S;

*kfree(E);

Right at the moment, hot removal of a device within an enclosure does
nothing (because the intf_remove only copes with enclosure removal not
with component removal). Fix this by adding a function to remove the
component.  Also needed to fix the prototype of
enclosure_remove_device, since we know the device we've removed but
not the internal component number

In a situation either with expanders or with multiple enclosure
devices, hot add doesn't always work.  This is because we try to find
a single enclosure device attached to the host.  Fix this by looping
over all enclosure devices attached to the host and also by making the
find loop recognise that the enclosure devices may be expander remote
(i.e. not parented by the host).
