Subject: [ 08/84] drivers/scsi/atp870u.c: fix bad use of udelay
Date: Thu, 11 Oct 2012 11:02:52 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20121011015418.541201856@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20121011015417.017144658@linuxfoundation.org>

3.0-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Martin Michlmayr <tbm@cyrius.com>

commit 0f6d93aa9d96cc9022b51bd10d462b03296be146 upstream.

The ACARD driver calls udelay() with a value > 2000, which leads to to
the following compilation error on ARM:

  ERROR: "__bad_udelay" [drivers/scsi/atp870u.ko] undefined!
  make[1]: *** [__modpost] Error 1

This is because udelay is defined on ARM, roughly speaking, as

	#define udelay(n) ((n) > 2000 ? __bad_udelay() : \
		__const_udelay((n) * ((2199023U*HZ)>>11)))

The argument to __const_udelay is the number of jiffies to wait divided
by 4, but this does not work unless the multiplication does not
overflow, and that is what the build error is designed to prevent.  The
intended behavior can be achieved by using mdelay to call udelay
multiple times in a loop.
