From 9ca8dbcc65cfc63d6f5ef3312a33184e1d726e00 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yunhong Jiang Date: Tue, 4 Aug 2015 12:17:53 -0700 Subject: Add the rt linux 4.1.3-rt3 as base Import the rt linux 4.1.3-rt3 as OPNFV kvm base. It's from git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-rt-devel.git linux-4.1.y-rt and the base is: commit 0917f823c59692d751951bf5ea699a2d1e2f26a2 Author: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior Date: Sat Jul 25 12:13:34 2015 +0200 Prepare v4.1.3-rt3 Signed-off-by: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior We lose all the git history this way and it's not good. We should apply another opnfv project repo in future.

Linux's responsiveness + * and performance doesn't seem to be much affected + * from the background backup procedure. + * Some general mtio.h magnetic tape operations are + * now supported by our character device. As a result, + * popular tape utilities are starting to work with + * ide tapes :-) + * The following configurations were tested: + * 1. An IDE ATAPI TAPE shares the same interface + * and irq with an IDE ATAPI CDROM. + * 2. An IDE ATAPI TAPE shares the same interface + * and irq with a normal IDE disk. + * Both configurations seemed to work just fine ! + * However, to be on the safe side, it is meanwhile + * recommended to give the IDE TAPE its own interface + * and irq. + * The one thing which needs to be done here is to + * add a "request postpone" feature to ide.c, + * so that we won't have to wait for the tape to finish + * performing a long media access (DSC) request (such + * as a rewind) before we can access the other device + * on the same interface. This effect doesn't disturb + * normal operation most of the time because read/write + * requests are relatively fast, and once we are + * performing one tape r/w request, a lot of requests + * from the other device can be queued and ide.c will + * service all of them after this single tape request. + * Ver 1.0 Dec 11 95 Integrated into Linux 1.3.46 development tree. + * On each read / write request, we now ask the drive + * if we can transfer a constant number of bytes + * (a parameter of the drive) only to its buffers, + * without causing actual media access. If we can't, + * we just wait until we can by polling the DSC bit. + * This ensures that while we are not transferring + * more bytes than the constant referred to above, the + * interrupt latency will not become too high and + * we won't cause an interrupt timeout, as happened + * occasionally in the previous version. + * While polling for DSC, the current request is + * postponed and ide.c is free to handle requests from + * the other device. This is handled transparently to + * ide.c. The hwgroup locking method which was used + * in the previous version was removed. + * Use of new general features which are provided by + * ide.c for use with atapi devices. + * (Programming done by Mark Lord) + * Few potential bug fixes (Again, suggested by Mark) + * Single character device data transfers are now + * not limited in size, as they were before. + * We are asking the tape about its recommended + * transfer unit and send a larger data transfer + * as several transfers of the above size. + * For best results, use an integral number of this + * basic unit (which is shown during driver + * initialization). I will soon add an ioctl to get + * this important parameter. + * Our data transfer buffer is allocated on startup, + * rather than before each data transfer. This should + * ensure that we will indeed have a data buffer. + * Ver 1.1 Dec 14 95 Fixed random problems which occurred when the tape + * shared an interface with another device. + * (poll_for_dsc was a complete mess). + * Removed some old (non-active) code which had + * to do with supporting buffer cache originated + * requests. + * The block device interface can now be opened, so + * that general ide driver features like the unmask + * interrupts flag can be selected with an ioctl. + * This is the only use of the block device interface. + * New fast pipelined operation mode (currently only on + * writes). When using the pipelined mode, the + * throughput can potentially reach the maximum + * tape supported throughput, regardless of the + * user backup program. On my tape drive, it sometimes + * boosted performance by a factor of 2. Pipelined + * mode is enabled by default, but since it has a few + * downfalls as well, you may want to disable it. + * A short explanation of the pipelined operation mode + * is available below. + * Ver 1.2 Jan 1 96 Eliminated pipelined mode race condition. + * Added pipeline read mode. As a result, restores + * are now as fast as backups. + * Optimized shared interface behavior. The new behavior + * typically results in better IDE bus efficiency and + * higher tape throughput. + * Pre-calculation of the expected read/write request + * service time, based on the tape's parameters.

However, this may +or may not be harmful to your hardware.. two or more cards driving the same IRQ +can potentially burn each other's bus driver, though in practice this +seldom occurs. Be careful, and if in doubt, don't do it! + +Drives are normally found by auto-probing and/or examining the CMOS/BIOS data. +For really weird situations, the apparent (fdisk) geometry can also be specified +on the kernel "command line" using LILO. The format of such lines is: + + ide_core.chs=[interface_number.device_number]:cyls,heads,sects +or ide_core.cdrom=[interface_number.device_number] + +For example: + + ide_core.chs=1.0:1050,32,64 ide_core.cdrom=1.1 + +The results of successful auto-probing may override the physical geometry/irq +specified, though the "original" geometry may be retained as the "logical" +geometry for partitioning purposes (fdisk). + +If the auto-probing during boot time confuses a drive (ie. the drive works +with hd.c but not with ide.c), then an command line option may be specified +for each drive for which you'd like the drive to skip the hardware +probe/identification sequence. For example: + + ide_core.noprobe=0.1 +or + ide_core.chs=1.0:768,16,32 + ide_core.noprobe=1.0 + +Note that when only one IDE device is attached to an interface, it should be +jumpered as "single" or "master", *not* "slave". Many folks have had +"trouble" with cdroms because of this requirement, so the driver now probes +for both units, though success is more likely when the drive is jumpered +correctly. + +Courtesy of Scott Snyder and others, the driver supports ATAPI cdrom drives +such as the NEC-260 and the new MITSUMI triple/quad speed drives. +Such drives will be identified at boot time, just like a hard disk. + +If for some reason your cdrom drive is *not* found at boot time, you can force +the probe to look harder by supplying a kernel command line parameter +via LILO, such as: + + ide_core.cdrom=1.0 /* "master" on second interface (hdc) */ +or + ide_core.cdrom=1.1 /* "slave" on second interface (hdd) */ + +For example, a GW2000 system might have a hard drive on the primary +interface (/dev/hda) and an IDE cdrom drive on the secondary interface +(/dev/hdc). To mount a CD in the cdrom drive, one would use something like: + + ln -sf /dev/hdc /dev/cdrom + mkdir /mnt/cdrom + mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom -t iso9660 -o ro + +If, after doing all of the above, mount doesn't work and you see +errors from the driver (with dmesg) complaining about `status=0xff', +this means that the hardware is not responding to the driver's attempts +to read it. One of the following is probably the problem: + + - Your hardware is broken. + + - You are using the wrong address for the device, or you have the + drive jumpered wrong. Review the configuration instructions above. + + - Your IDE controller requires some nonstandard initialization sequence + before it will work properly. If this is the case, there will often + be a separate MS-DOS driver just for the controller. IDE interfaces + on sound cards usually fall into this category. Such configurations + can often be made to work by first booting MS-DOS, loading the + appropriate drivers, and then warm-booting linux (without powering + off). This can be automated using loadlin in the MS-DOS autoexec. + +If you always get timeout errors, interrupts from the drive are probably +not making it to the host. Check how you have the hardware jumpered +and make sure it matches what the driver expects (see the configuration +instructions above). If you have a PCI system, also check the BIOS +setup; I've had one report of a system which was shipped with IRQ 15 +disabled by the BIOS. + +The kernel is able to execute binaries directly off of the cdrom, +provided it is mounted with the default block size of 1024 (as above). + +Please pass on any feedback on any of this stuff to the maintainer, +whose address can be found in linux/MAINTAINERS. + +The IDE driver is modularized.
