blk_rq_unmap_user() returns EFAULT if a program passes an invalid address to kernel (the kernel fails to copy data to user space). sg needs to pass the returned value to user space instead of ignoring it. Before the block layer conversion, sg returns EFAULT properly. This restores the old behavior.

So, what's happening here is that the drive is reporting a sense of 2/4/1 ("logical unit is becoming ready") from sr_test_unit_ready(), and then we ask for the media event notification before checking that result at all. The check_media_event_descriptor() call isn't getting a check condition, but it's also reporting that the tray is closed and that there's no media. In actuality it doesn't yet know if there's media or not, but there's no way to express that in the media event status field. My current thought is that if it told us the device isn't yet ready, we should return that immediately, since there's nothing that'll tell us any more data than that reliably: Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@HansenPartnership.com>

This patch is preparation for replacing all uses of ".head.text" or ".text.head" in the kernel with macros, so that the section name can later be changed without having to touch a lot of the kernel. Since some linker scripts do more complex things than referencing HEAD_TEXT, we add a HEAD_TEXT_SECTION macro that just contains the actual name. I've defined HEAD_TEXT_SECTION in a new header, include/linux/section-names.h, so that this section name only needs to appear in one place. I anticipate creating similar macro structures for a number of other section names. The long-term goal here is to be able to change the kernel's magic section names to those that are compatible with -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections. This requires renaming all magic sections with names of the form ".text.foo". Signed-off-by: Tim Abbott <tabbott@mit.edu> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Rafael J. Wysocki authored
Commit c7510859 ("PM/Hibernate: Wait for SCSI devices scan to complete during resume") added a call to scsi_complete_async_scans() to software_resume(), so that it waited for the SCSI scanning to complete, but the call was added at a wrong place. Namely, it should have been added after wait_for_device_probe(), which is called only if the image partition hasn't been specified yet. Also, it's reasonable to check if the image partition is present and only wait for the device probing and SCSI scanning to complete if it is not the case. Additionally, since noresume is checked right at the beginning of software_resume() and the function returns immediately if it's set, it doesn't make sense to check it once again later.

Currently, although find_last_bit is EXPORTed, it is statically linked with the kernel and is referenced only under CONFIG_SMP. When CONFIG_SMP is undefined and find_last_bit is referenced only by modules, linking fails with: ERROR: "find_last_bit" [fs/nfs/nfs.ko] undefined!
