Don Brace <don.brace@microchip.com> says: These patches are based on Martin Petersen's 6.16/scsi-queue tree https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mkp/scsi.git 6.16/scsi-queue There are two main functional changes in this patch series: smartpqi-take-drives-offline-when-controller-is-offline smartpqi-fix-smp_processor_id-call-trace-for-preemptible-kernels The other two patches add PCI-IDs for new controllers and change the driver version. This set of changes consists of: * smartpqi-take-drives-offline-when-controller-is-offline On rare occasions, the controller can lock up and the driver was removing the controller instance from OS but leaving the drives exposed and their state was still 'running'. This patch sets the drive state as 'offline' to avoid confusion. * smartpqi-add-new-pci_ids Add support for more PCI devices. * smartpqi-enhance_wwid-logging-logic Cosmetic change for logging WWIDs for NVMe devices and for drives that support the extended format. * smartpqi-fix-smp_processor_id-call-trace-for-preemptible-kernels When preemption is enabled, there are call traces in the console logs which are annoying. The call trace mentions using smp_processor_id(). Since the driver is only using this function call when accessing a per_cpu variable, we changed the call to raw_smp_processor_id(). This patch was written by Yi Zhang <yi.zhang@redhat.com> and I am posting it on his behalf. * smartpqi-update-driver-version-to-2.1.34-035 No functional changes.

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 reStructuredText 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.
