that provided by the block layer
ATA requires that all DMA transfers begin and end on word boundaries.
Because of this, a large amount of machinery grew up in ide to adjust
scatterlists on this basis. However, as of 2.5, the block layer has a
dma_alignment variable which ensures both the beginning and length of a
DMA transfer are aligned on the dma_alignment boundary. Although the
block layer does adjust the beginning of the transfer to ensure this
happens, it doesn't actually adjust the length, it merely makes sure
that space is allocated for transfers beyond the declared length. The
upshot of this is that scatterlists may be padded to any size between
the actual length and the length adjusted to the dma_alignment safely
knowing that memory is allocated in this region.
Right at the moment, SCSI takes the default dma_aligment which is on a
512 byte boundary. Note that this aligment only applies to transfers
coming in from user space. However, since all kernel allocations are
automatically aligned on a minimum of 32 byte boundaries, it is safe to
adjust them in this manner as well.
tj: * Adjusting sg after padding is done in block layer. Make libata
set queue alignment correctly for ATAPI devices and drop broken
sg mangling from ata_sg_setup().
* Use request->raw_data_len for ATAPI transfer chunk size.
* Killed qc->raw_nbytes.
* Separated out killing qc->n_iter.

With padding and draining moved into it, block layer now may extend
requests as directed by queue parameters, so now a request has two
sizes - the original request size and the extended size which matches
the size of area pointed to by bios and later by sgs. The latter size
is what lower layers are primarily interested in when allocating,
filling up DMA tables and setting up the controller.
Both padding and draining extend the data area to accomodate
controller characteristics. As any controller which speaks SCSI can
handle underflows, feeding larger data area is safe.
So, this patch makes the primary data length field, request->data_len,
indicate the size of full data area and add a separate length field,
request->raw_data_len, for the unmodified request size. The latter is
used to report to higher layer (userland) and where the original
request size should be fed to the controller or device.

For misc ATAPI commands which transfer variable length data to the
host, overflow can occur due to application or hardware bug. Such
overflows can be ignored safely as long as overflow data is properly
drained. libata HSM implementation has this implemented in
__atapi_pio_bytes() and recently updated for 2.6.24-rc but it requires
further improvements. Improve drain logic such that...
* Report overflow errors using ehi desc mechanism instead of printing
directly.
* Properly calculate the number of bytes to be drained considering
actual number of consumed bytes for partial draining.

This patch fixes the missing residual count setting in DMA mode,
which was introduced during the conversion to blk-end-request.
The residual count could be used by the request submitter.
So if it isn't set correctly, some upper layers does not work.
(e.g. wodim for CD burning.)
The bug is in only DMA mode.
In PIO mode, we are setting the residual count correctly,
so no need to fix.

Prefetch needs to be set for some ide devices to work when connected to
a ht6560b interface. This was not always done properly, causing a system
with a HD and CD on the primary interface to not work properly. Or, in
effect, hang hard.
This patch forces prefetch on devices before checking whether it
is necessary to change the settings in the interface
This patch should also be applied to 2.4. I don't currently have a
2.4 tree around.

In nes_create_qp(), the test
if (nesqp->mmap_sq_db_index > NES_MAX_USER_WQ_REGIONS) {
is used to error out if the db_index is too large; however, if the
test doesn't trigger, then the index is used as
nes_ucontext->mmap_nesqp[nesqp->mmap_sq_db_index] = nesqp;
and mmap_nesqp is declared as
struct nes_qp *mmap_nesqp[NES_MAX_USER_WQ_REGIONS];
which leads to an array overrun if the index is exactly equal to
NES_MAX_USER_WQ_REGIONS. Fix this by bailing out if the index is
greater than or equal to NES_MAX_USER_WQ_REGIONS.
This was spotted by the Coverity checker (CID 2162).

This patch combines all the finished discussions and its resulting patches from
the mailing list.
The version 1.0.6 is mainly influenced by Oliver Neukum. He found a lot of
small issues, that are fixed with this patch now. For me the most interesting
thing is, that it's now safer to use it on other architectures.
The history for version 1.0.6 is:
- fixed coverity checker warnings in *_usb_driver_disconnect
- probe()/open() race by correct ordering in probe()
- DMA coherency rules by separate allocation of all buffers
- use of endianness macros
- abuse of spinlock, replaced by mutex
- racy handling of timer in disconnect, replaced by delayed_work
- racy interruptible_sleep_on(), replaced with wait_event_interruptible()
- handle signals in read()
The driver is tested with all Debian/testing radio programs and rdsd. The patch
is tested against checkpatch.pl v1.12.
