* aio: make the lookup_ioctx() locklessJens Axboe2008-12-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The mm->ioctx_list is currently protected by a reader-writer lock, so we always grab that lock on the read side for doing ioctx lookups. As the workload is extremely reader biased, turn this into an rcu hlist so we can make lookup_ioctx() lockless. Get rid of the rwlock and use a spinlock for providing update side exclusion. There's usually only 1 entry on this list, so it doesn't make sense to look into fancier data structures. Reviewed-by: Jeff Moyer <jmoyer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
* bio: add support for inlining a number of bio_vecs inside the bioJens Axboe2008-12-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | When we go and allocate a bio for IO, we actually do two allocations. One for the bio itself, and one for the bi_io_vec that holds the actual pages we are interested in. This feature inlines a definable amount of io vecs inside the bio itself, so we eliminate the bio_vec array allocation for IO's up to a certain size. It defaults to 4 vecs, which is typically 16k of IO. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
* bio: allow individual slabs in the bio_setJens Axboe2008-12-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of having a global bio slab cache, add a reference to one in each bio_set that is created. This allows for personalized slabs in each bio_set, so that they can have bios of different sizes. This means we can personalize the bios we return. File systems may want to embed the bio inside another structure, to avoid allocation more items (and stuffing them in ->bi_private) after the get a bio. Or we may want to embed a number of bio_vecs directly at the end of a bio, to avoid doing two allocations to return a bio. This is now possible. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

* bio: only mempool back the largest bio_vec slab cacheJens Axboe2008-12-29
| | | | | | | | | We only very rarely need the mempool backing, so it makes sense to get rid of all but one of the mempool in a bio_set. So keep the largest bio_vec count mempool so we can always honor the largest allocation, and "upgrade" callers that fail. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

* block: fix empty barrier on write-through w/ ordered tagTejun Heo2008-12-29
| | | | | | | | | | Empty barrier on write-through (or no cache) w/ ordered tag has no command to execute and without any command to execute ordered tag is never issued to the device and the ordering is never achieved.

* block: simplify empty barrier implementationTejun Heo2008-12-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Empty barrier required special handling in __elv_next_request() to complete it without letting the low level driver see it. With previous changes, barrier code is now flexible enough to skip the BAR step using the same barrier sequence selection mechanism. Drop the special handling and mask off q->ordered from start_ordered(). Remove blk_empty_barrier() test which now has no user.

* block: make barrier completion more robustTejun Heo2008-12-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Barrier completion had the following assumptions. * start_ordered() couldn't finish the whole sequence properly. If all actions are to be skipped, q->ordseq is set correctly but the actual completion was never triggered thus hanging the barrier request. * Drain completion in elv_complete_request() assumed that there's always at least one request in the queue when drain completes. Both assumptions are true but these assumptions need to be removed to improve empty barrier implementation. This patch makes the following changes. * Make start_ordered() use blk_ordered_complete_seq() to mark skipped steps complete and notify __elv_next_request() that it should fetch the next request if the whole barrier has completed inside start_ordered(). * Make drain completion path in elv_complete_request() check whether the queue is empty. Empty queue also indicates drain completion. * While at it, convert 0/1 return from blk_do_ordered() to false/true.

* block: make every barrier action optionalTejun Heo2008-12-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | In all barrier sequences, the barrier write itself was always assumed to be issued and thus didn't have corresponding control flag.

* block: remove duplicate or unused barrier/discard error pathsTejun Heo2008-12-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Because barrier mode can be changed dynamically, whether barrier is supported or not can be determined only when actually issuing the barrier and there is no point in checking it earlier. Drop barrier support check in generic_make_request() and __make_request(), and update comment around the support check in blk_do_ordered(). * There is no reason to check discard support in both generic_make_request() and __make_request(). Drop the check in __make_request(). While at it, move error action block to the end of the function and add unlikely() to q existence test. * Barrier request, be it empty or not, is never passed to low level driver and thus it's meaningless to try to copy back req->sector to bio->bi_sector on error. In addition, the notion of failed sector doesn't make any sense for empty barrier to begin with. Drop the code block from __end_that_request_first().

* block: Supress Buffer I/O errors when SCSI REQ_QUIET flag setKeith Mannthey2008-12-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Allow the scsi request REQ_QUIET flag to be propagated to the buffer file system layer. The basic ideas is to pass the flag from the scsi request to the bio (block IO) and then to the buffer layer. The buffer layer can then suppress needless printks. This patch declutters the kernel log by removed the 40-50 (per lun) buffer io error messages seen during a boot in my multipath setup . It is a good chance any real errors will be missed in the "noise" it the logs without this patch. During boot I see blocks of messages like " __ratelimit: 211 callbacks suppressed Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242879 Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242879 Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242847 Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 1 Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242878 Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242879 Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242879 Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242879 Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242879 Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242872 " in my logs. My disk environment is multipath fiber channel using the SCSI_DH_RDAC code and multipathd. This topology includes an "active" and "ghost" path for each lun. IO's to the "ghost" path will never complete and the SCSI layer, via the scsi device handler rdac code, quick returns the IOs to theses paths and sets the REQ_QUIET scsi flag to suppress the scsi layer messages. I am wanting to extend the QUIET behavior to include the buffer file system layer to deal with these errors as well. I have been running this patch for a while now on several boxes without issue. A few runs of bonnie++ show no noticeable difference in performance in my setup. Thanks for John Stultz for the quiet_error finalization.

* block: leave the request timeout timer running even on an empty listJens Axboe2008-12-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | For sync IO, we'll often do them serialized. This means we'll be touching the queue timer for every IO, as opposed to only occasionally like we do for queued IO. Instead of deleting the timer when the last request is removed, just let continue running. If a new request comes up soon we then don't have to readd the timer again. If no new requests arrive, the timer will expire without side effect later. This improves high iops sync IO by ~1%. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

| * powerpc/32: Allow __ioremap on RAM addresses for kdump kernelAnton Vorontsov2008-12-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While for debugging it is good to catch bogus users of ioremap, though for kdump support it is more convenient to use __ioremap for copy_oldmem_page() (exactly as we do for PPC64 currently). Note that copy_oldmem_page() calls __ioremap with flags set to '0', so it should be safe with the regard to the caches. The other option is to use kmap_atomic_pfn()[1], but it will not work for kernels compiled without HIGHMEM. That is, on a board with 256MB RAM and crashkernel=64M@32M case, the !HIGHMEM capturing kernel maps 0-96M range, which does not include all the memory needed to capture the dump. And, obviously, accessing anything upper than 96M will cause faults.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, pseries_cpu_die() calls msleep() while polling RTAS for the status of the dying cpu. However, if the cpu that is going down also happens to be the one doing the tick then we're hosed as the tick_do_timer_cpu 'baton' is only passed later on in tick_shutdown() when _cpu_down() does the CPU_DEAD notification. Therefore jiffies won't be updated anymore. This replaces that msleep() with a cpu_relax() to make sure we're not going to schedule at that point.

| * powerpc/cell: add QPACE as a separate Cell platformBenjamin Krill2008-12-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since the QPACE (Chromodynamics Parallel Computing on the Cell Broadband Engine) platform doesn't use a iommu, doesn't have PCI devices and a MPIC much lesser setup and configurations are needed. So far all devices are detected as OF device. A notifier function is used to set the dma_ops for the of_platform bus. Further this patch splits the PPC_CELL_NATIVE into PPC_CELL_COMMON which are parts that are shared with the QPACE platform and the rest.

| * powerpc/cell: fix build breakage with CONFIG_SPUFS disabledArnd Bergmann2008-12-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | CBE_THERM and OPROFILE_CELL both cannot be built without SPU_FS disabled, so make the dependency explicit. Reported-by: Milton Miller <miltonm@bga.com> Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

| * powerpc/mpc5200: Make PSC UART driver update serial errors countersRené Bürgel2008-12-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds the capability to the mpc52xx-uart to report framing errors, parity errors, breaks and overruns to userspace. These values may be requested in userspace by using the ioctl TIOCGICOUNT. Signed-off-by: René Bürgel <r.buergel@unicontrol.de> Signed-off-by: Grant Likely <grant.likely@secretlab.ca>
