scsi: dpt_i2o: Remove obsolete driver

2022-06-28T02:56:21+00:00

The dpt_i2o driver was fixed to stop using virt_to_bus() in 2008, but it still has a stale reference in an error handling code path that could never work. I submitted a patch to fix this reference earlier, but Hannes Reinecke suggested that removing the driver may be just as good here. The i2o driver layer was removed in 2015 with commit 4a72a7af462d ("staging: remove i2o subsystem"), but the even older dpt_i2o scsi driver stayed around. The last non-cleanup patches I could find were from Miquel van Smoorenburg and Mark Salyzyn back in 2008, they might know if there is any chance of the hardware still being used anywhere.

scsi: BusLogic: Remove bus_to_virt()

2022-06-28T02:52:05+00:00

The BusLogic driver is the last remaining driver that relies on the deprecated bus_to_virt() function, which in turn only works on a few architectures, and is incompatible with both swiotlb and iommu support. Before commit 391e2f25601e ("[SCSI] BusLogic: Port driver to 64-bit."), the driver had a dependency on x86-32, presumably because of this problem. However, the change introduced another bug that made it still impossible to use the driver on any 64-bit machine. This was in turn fixed in commit 56f396146af2 ("scsi: BusLogic: Fix 64-bit system enumeration error for Buslogic"), 8 years later, which shows that there are not a lot of users. Maciej is still using the driver on 32-bit hardware, and Khalid mentioned that the driver works with the device emulation used in VirtualBox and VMware. Both of those only emulate it for Windows 2000 and older operating systems that did not ship with the better LSI logic driver. Do a minimum fix that searches through the list of descriptors to find one that matches the bus address. This is clearly as inefficient as was indicated in the code comment about the lack of a bus_to_virt() replacement. A better fix would likely involve changing out the entire descriptor allocation for a simpler one, but that would be much more invasive.

scsi: fcoe: Remove redundant assignment to variable 'wlen'

2022-06-28T02:45:25+00:00

Variable wlen is being assigned a value that is never read, it is being re-assigned with a different value later on. The assignment is redundant and can be removed.
