Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.

Some MediaTek SoC platforms with UFSHCI version below 3.0 have incorrect
UFSHCI versions showed in register map.
Fix the version by referring to UniPro version which is always correct.

The abort_cmd_ia flag in an abort wqe describes whether an ABTS basic link
service should be transmitted on the FC link or not. Code added in
lpfc_sli4_issue_abort_iotag() set the abort_cmd_ia flag incorrectly,
surpressing ABTS transmission.
A previous LPFC change to build an abort wqe inverted prior logic that
determined whether an ABTS was to be issued on the FC link.
Revert this logic to its proper state.

On realtime kernels, spin_lock_irq*(spinlock_t) do not disable the
interrupts, a call to irqs_disabled() will return false thus firing a
warning in __transport_wait_for_tasks().
Remove the warning and also replace assert_spin_locked() with
lockdep_assert_held()

Target de-configuration panics at high CPU load because TPGT and WWPN can
be removed on separate threads.
TPGT removal requests a reset HBA on a separate thread and waits for reset
complete (phase1). Due to high CPU load that HBA reset can be delayed for
some time.
WWPN removal does qlt_stop_phase2(). There it is believed that phase1 has
already completed and thus tgt.tgt_ops is subsequently cleared. However,
tgt.tgt_ops is needed to process incoming traffic and therefore this will
cause one of the following panics:
NIP qlt_reset+0x7c/0x220 [qla2xxx]
LR qlt_reset+0x68/0x220 [qla2xxx]
Call Trace:

The patch fixes the issue by serializing qlt_stop_phase1() and
qlt_stop_phase2() functions to make WWPN removal wait for phase1
completion.

Building aicasm with gcc 10.2 + gas 26.1 causes these errors:
multiple definition of `args';
multiple definition of `yylineno';
args came from the expansion of:
STAILQ_HEAD(macro_arg_list, macro_arg) args;
The definition of the macro_arg_list structure is needed, the global
variable 'args' is not, so delete it.
yylineno is defined by flex, so defining it in bison/*.y file is not
needed. Also delete this.

With CONFIG_AIC7XXX_BUILD_FIRMWARE, there is this representative error:
aicasm: Stopped at file ./drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aic7xxx.seq,
line 271 - Undefined symbol MSG_SIMPLE_Q_TAG referenced
MSG_SIMPLE_Q_TAG used to be defined in drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/scsi_message.h
as:
#define MSG_SIMPLE_Q_TAG 0x20 /* O/O */
The new definition in include/scsi/scsi.h is:
#define SIMPLE_QUEUE_TAG 0x20
But aicasm can not handle the all the preprocessor directives in scsi.h, so
add MSG_SIMPLE_Q_TAB and other required defines back to scsi_message.h.

This has us use raw_smp_processor_id() in iblock's plug_device callout.
smp_processor_id() is not needed here, because we are running from a per
CPU work item that is also queued to run on a worker thread that is
normally bound to a specific CPU. If the worker thread did end up switching
CPUs then it's handled the same way we handle when the work got moved to a
different CPU's worker thread, where we will just end up sending I/O from
the new CPU.

If sas_notify_lldd_dev_found() fails then this code calls:
sas_unregister_dev(port, dev);
which removes "dev", our list iterator, from the list. This could lead to
an endless loop. We need to use list_for_each_entry_safe().
