[ Upstream commit23c3828aa2] With commit09c2f95ad4("scsi: mpt3sas: Swap I/O memory read value back to cpu endianness"), 64bit writes in _base_writeq() were rewritten to use __raw_writeq() instad of writeq(). This introduced a bug apparent on powerpc64 systems such as the Raptor Talos II that causes the HBA to drop from the PCIe bus under heavy load and being reinitialized after a couple of seconds. It can easily be triggered on affacted systems by using something like fio --name=random-write --iodepth=4 --rw=randwrite --bs=4k --direct=0 \ --size=128M --numjobs=64 --end_fsync=1 fio --name=random-write --iodepth=4 --rw=randwrite --bs=64k --direct=0 \ --size=128M --numjobs=64 --end_fsync=1 a couple of times. In my case I tested it on both a ZFS raidz2 and a btrfs raid6 using LSI 9300-8i and 9400-8i controllers. The fix consists in resembling the write ordering of writeq() by adding a mandatory write memory barrier before device access and a compiler barrier afterwards. The additional MMIO barrier is superfluous.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
