[SCSI] sd: udev accessing an uninitialized scsi_disk field results in a crash

2007-02-03T01:45:41Z

sd_probe() calls class_device_add() even before initializing the sdkp->device variable. class_device_add() eventually results in the user mode udev program to be called. udev program can read the the allow_restart attribute of the newly created scsi device. This is resulting in a crash as the show function for allow_restart (i.e sd_show_allow_restart) returns the attribute value by reading the sdkp->device->allow_restart variable. As the sdkp->device is not initialized before calling the user mode hotplug helper, this results in a crash. The patch below solves it by calling class_device_add() only after the necessary fields in the scsi_disk structure are initialized properly.

libata: Initialize nbytes for internal sg commands

2007-02-02T16:52:05Z

Some LLDDs, like ipr, use nbytes and pad_len to determine the total data transfer length of a command. Make sure nbytes gets initialized for internally generated commands. Signed-off-by: Brian King Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik

ahci/pata_jmicron: fix JMicron quirk

2007-02-02T16:52:05Z

For all JMicrons except for 361 and 368, AHCI mode enable bits in the Control(1) should be set. This used to be done in both ahci and pata_jmicron but while moving programming to PCI quirk, it was removed from ahci part while still left in pata_jmicron. The implemented JMicron PCI quirk was incorrect in that it didn't program AHCI mode enable bits. If pata_jmicron is loaded first and programs those bits, the ahci ports work; otherwise, ahci device detection fails miserably. This patch makes JMicron PCI quirk clear SATA IDE mode bits and set AHCI mode bits and remove the respective part from pata_jmicron. Tested on JMB361, 363 and 368.
