This driver create a host bus adapter device when s-Par sends a
device create message to create a storage adapter on the visorbus.
When the message is received by visorbus, the visorhba_probe function
is called and the hba device is created and managed by the visorhba
driver.

There is no code to handle an error return in visornic, when it tries to

In cases where visorbus is compiled directly into the kernel, if
visorbus registration fails for any reason, it is still possible for
other drivers to call visorbus_register_visor_driver(), which could
cause an oops. Prevent this by saving the result of the call to
create_bus() in a static variable, and return an error code when the bus
hasn't been registered successfully.

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
"This update has successfully completed a 0day-kbuild run and has
appeared in a linux-next release. The changes outside of the typical
drivers/nvdimm/ and drivers/acpi/nfit.[ch] paths are related to the
removal of IORESOURCE_CACHEABLE, the introduction of memremap(), and
the introduction of ZONE_DEVICE + devm_memremap_pages().
Summary:
- Introduce ZONE_DEVICE and devm_memremap_pages() as a generic
mechanism for adding device-driver-discovered memory regions to the
kernel's direct map.
This facility is used by the pmem driver to enable pfn_to_page()
operations on the page frames returned by DAX ('direct_access' in
'struct block_device_operations').
For now, the 'memmap' allocation for these "device" pages comes
from "System RAM". Support for allocating the memmap from device
memory will arrive in a later kernel.
- Introduce memremap() to replace usages of ioremap_cache() and
ioremap_wt(). memremap() drops the __iomem annotation for these
mappings to memory that do not have i/o side effects. The
replacement of ioremap_cache() with memremap() is limited to the
pmem driver to ease merging the api change in v4.3.
Completion of the conversion is targeted for v4.4.
- Similar to the usage of memcpy_to_pmem() + wmb_pmem() in the pmem
driver, update the VFS DAX implementation and PMEM api to provide
persistence guarantees for kernel operations on a DAX mapping.
- Convert the ACPI NFIT 'BLK' driver to map the block apertures as
cacheable to improve performance.
- Miscellaneous updates and fixes to libnvdimm including support for
issuing "address range scrub" commands, clarifying the optimal
'sector size' of pmem devices, a clarification of the usage of the
ACPI '_STA' (status) property for DIMM devices, and other minor
fixes"

Switch the visornic over to use napi. Currently there is a kernel
thread that sits and waits on a wait queue to get notified of incoming
virtual interrupts. It would be nice if we could handle frame reception
using the standard napi processing instead. This patch creates our napi
instance and has the rx thread schedule it
Given that the unisys hypervisor currently requires that queue servicing
be done by a polling loop that wakes up every 2ms, lets instead also
convert that to a timer, which is simpler, and allows us to remove all
the thread starting and stopping code.

According to unisys, the s_par hypervisor has a bug in which it never
triggers an interrupt. That makes the visornic effectively a 2ms poll
loop. In order to just have the rx thread shceduling a napi poll every

data before we schedule. This helper provides that functionality

Previously we simplified the serverdown function to basically turn it
into a dev_close(), but missed the analogous logic in visornic_resume()
(which is essentially the "book-end" of visornic_serverdown_complete()).
As a result, during IO partition recovery, the nic would go closed when
the IO partition went away, but would never be opened again when the IO
partition came back.
This patch changes visornic_resume() to use dev_open(), so that it once
again plays nicely with visornic_serverdown_complete(). Because
dev_open() forces us into the visornic_open() path, other logic in
visornic_resume() was no longer necessary, and lended to simplifying
visornic_resume() even more.

enable/disable operation to the IO partition has completed, it should

were
mistakenly holding on to devdata->priv_lock in the call to

--> visornic_close()

After IO partition recovery, it was possible to get into a situation where
a visornic device would repeatedly report:
NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0 (): transmit queue 0 timed out
The actual problem would affect any visornic device that was rapidly
transmitting at the same time the IO partition was being recovered. Once
you hit the problem, the only way to resume use of the nic would be to
reboot the Linux client partition.
The problem was caused by chstat.sent_xmit and chstat.got_xmit_done NOT
getting cleared during IO partition recovery. This is necessary because
outstanding xmits would essentially be "abandoned" during such recovery.
These fields are now cleared in virtnic_serverdown_complete().

Using NETDEV_TX_BUSY is tricky. Its meant for situations where the error
in question is transient and quickly resolved. But the driver rarely is
able to know that to a certainty. And in the case of visornic, it just
uses it without any care for that, in the hopes that it won't loose frames,
even if the problem is that the skb is somehow malformed for the hardware.
If we get one of those kinds of skbs, NETDEV_TX_BUSY will just cause us to
spin, processing the same error over and over.
Fix it by dropping the frame, stopping the queue where appropriate, and
returning NETDEV_TX_OK

As pointed out in a recent review, the num_visornic_open array didn't do
anything useful, and it exposed a potential race in the visornic code that
could arise while taking down a net interface while reading from the
debugfs files. Fix that by removing the array entirely, and just iterating
over all the registered netdevs in a given namespace, filtering on them
having visornic ops (to identify which are ours), and having their queues
not be stopped (identifying that they are up). This should prevent any oops
conditions happening due to changing state in that array, and save us a
bunch of code too.

We learned that it was possible for the core networking code to call
visornic_xmit() within ISR context, resulting in the need for us to
use spin_lock_irqsave() / spin_lock_irqrestore() to lock accesses to our
virtual device channels.
Without the correct locking added in this patch, random hangs would occur
on typical kernels while stressing the netork. When using a kernel with
CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK=y, a stackdump would occur at the time of the hang
reporting:
BUG: spinlock recursion on CPU#0, vnic_incoming/<pid>
(see below for more details)
We considered the possibility of adding a protocol between a visordriver
and visorbus where the visordriver could specify which type of locking it
required for its virtual device channels (essentially indicating whether
or not it was possible for the channel to be accessed in ISR context), but
decided this extra complexity was NOT needed, and that channel queues
should always be accessed with the most-stringent locking. So that is
what is implemented in this commit.
Below is an example stackdump illustrating the spinlock recursion that is
fixed by this commit. Note that we are first in virtnic_rx() writing to
the device channel when an APIC timer interrupt occurs. Within the core
networking code, net_rx_action() calls process_backlog(), which eventually
lands up back up in virtnic_xmit() in the code attempting to also write to
the device channel.

visorchannel_write() and it's user visorbus_write_channel() are
exported, so all visorbus function drivers (i.e., drivers that call
visorbus_register_visor_driver()) are potentially affected by the bug.
Because of pointer-arithmetic rules, the address being written to in the
affected code was actually at byte offset:
sizeof(struct channel_header) * offset
instead of just <offset> bytes as intended.
The bug could cause some very difficult-to-diagnose symptoms. The
particular problem that led me on this chase was a kernel fault that
would occur during 'insmod visornic' after a previous 'rmmod visornic',
where we would fault during netdev_register_kobject() within
pm_runtime_set_memalloc_noio() while traversing a device list, which
occurred because dev->parent for the visorbus device had become
corrupted.
