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.

The UFS driver uses blk_mq_tagset_busy_iter() when identifying task
management requests to complete, however blk_mq_tagset_busy_iter() doesn't
work.
blk_mq_tagset_busy_iter() only iterates requests dispatched by the block
layer. That appears as if it might have started since commit 37f4a24c2469
("blk-mq: centralise related handling into blk_mq_get_driver_tag") which
removed 'data->hctx->tags->rqs[rq->tag] = rq' from blk_mq_rq_ctx_init()
which gets called:
blk_get_request
blk_mq_alloc_request
__blk_mq_alloc_request
blk_mq_rq_ctx_init
Since UFS task management requests are not dispatched by the block layer,
hctx->tags->rqs[rq->tag] remains NULL, and since blk_mq_tagset_busy_iter()
relies on finding requests using hctx->tags->rqs[rq->tag], UFS task
management requests are never found by blk_mq_tagset_busy_iter().
By using blk_mq_tagset_busy_iter(), the UFS driver was relying on internal
details of the block layer, which was fragile and subsequently got
broken. Fix by removing the use of blk_mq_tagset_busy_iter() and having the
driver keep track of task management requests.

Commit 756fb6a895af ("scsi: acornscsi: Remove tagged queuing vestiges")
mistakenly introduced a reference to function scsi_cmd_to_tag(). This
function does not exist as it was removed from an earlier series version
when I upstreamed the named commit - originally authored By Hannes - but
this reference still remained.
Fix by replacing the reference to scsi_cmd_to_tag() with
scsi_cmd_to_rq(scsi_scmd)->tag, which scsi_cmd_to_tag() was a wrapper for.

Both cxgb4 and csiostor drivers run on their own independent Physical
Function. But when cxgb4 and csiostor are both being loaded in parallel via
modprobe, there is a race when firmware upgrade is attempted by both the
drivers.
When the cxgb4 driver initiates the firmware upgrade, it halts the firmware
and the chip until upgrade is complete. When the csiostor driver is coming
up in parallel, the firmware mailbox communication fails with timeouts and
the csiostor driver probe fails.
Add a module soft dependency on cxgb4 driver to ensure loading csiostor
triggers cxgb4 to load first when available to avoid the firmware upgrade
race.
