* block: restore the meaning of rq->data_len to the true data lengthFUJITA Tomonori2008-03-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The meaning of rq->data_len was changed to the length of an allocated buffer from the true data length. It breaks SG_IO friends and bsg. This patch restores the meaning of rq->data_len to the true data length and adds rq->extra_len to store an extended length (due to drain buffer and padding). This patch also removes the code to update bio in blk_rq_map_user introduced by the commit 40b01b9bbdf51ae543a04744283bf2d56c4a6afa. The commit adjusts bio according to memory alignment (queue_dma_alignment). However, memory alignment is NOT padding alignment. This adjustment also breaks SG_IO friends and bsg. Padding alignment needs to be fixed in a proper way (by a separate patch). Signed-off-by: FUJITA Tomonori <fujita.tomonori@lab.ntt.co.jp> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@carl.home.kernel.dk>

* block: add request->raw_data_lenTejun Heo2008-02-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With padding and draining moved into it, block layer now may extend requests as directed by queue parameters, so now a request has two sizes - the original request size and the extended size which matches the size of area pointed to by bios and later by sgs. The latter size is what lower layers are primarily interested in when allocating, filling up DMA tables and setting up the controller. Both padding and draining extend the data area to accomodate controller characteristics. As any controller which speaks SCSI can handle underflows, feeding larger data area is safe. So, this patch makes the primary data length field, request->data_len, indicate the size of full data area and add a separate length field, request->raw_data_len, for the unmodified request size. The latter is used to report to higher layer (userland) and where the original request size should be fed to the controller or device.

* block: update bio according to DMA alignment paddingTejun Heo2008-02-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | DMA start address and transfer size alignment for PC requests are achieved using bio_copy_user() instead of bio_map_user(). This works because bio_copy_user() always uses full pages and block DMA alignment isn't allowed to go over PAGE_SIZE. However, the implementation didn't update the last bio of the request to make this padding visible to lower layers. This patch makes blk_rq_map_user() extend the last bio such that it includes the padding area and the size of area pointed to by the request is properly aligned.

* elevator: make elevator_get() attempt to load the appropriate moduleJens Axboe2008-02-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | Currently we fail if someone requests a valid io scheduler, but it's modular and not currently loaded. That can happen from a driver init asking for a different scheduler, or online switching through sysfs as requested by a user.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | These DMA drain buffer implementations in drivers are pretty horrible to do in terms of manipulating the scatterlist. Plus they're being done at least in drivers/ide and drivers/ata, so we now have code duplication. The one use case for this, as I understand it is AHCI controllers doing PIO mode to mmc devices but translating this to DMA at the controller level. So, what about adding a callback to the block layer that permits the adding of the drain buffer for the problem devices. The idea is that you'd do this in slave_configure after you find one of these devices. The beauty of doing it in the block layer is that it quietly adds the drain buffer to the end of the sg list, so it automatically gets mapped (and unmapped) without anything unusual having to be done to the scatterlist in driver/scsi or drivers/ata and without any alteration to the transfer length.

| * | blk_end_request: add bidi completion interface (take 4)Kiyoshi Ueda2008-01-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds a variant of the interface, blk_end_bidi_request(), which completes a bidi request. Bidi request must be completed as a whole, both rq and rq->next_rq at once. So the interface has 2 arguments for completion size. As for ->end_io, only rq->end_io is called (rq->next_rq->end_io is not called). So if special completion handling is needed, the handler must be set to rq->end_io. And the handler must take care of freeing next_rq too, since the interface doesn't care of it if rq->end_io is not NULL.

| * | blk_end_request: add callback feature (take 4)Kiyoshi Ueda2008-01-28

Drivers may need to do special works between end_that_request_first() and end_that_request_last(). For such drivers, blk_end_request_callback() allows it to pass a callback function which is called between end_that_request_first() and end_that_request_last(). This interface is only for fallback of other blk_end_request interfaces. Drivers should avoid their tricky behaviors and use other interfaces as much as possible. Currently, only one driver, ide-cd, needs this interface. So this interface should/will be removed, after the driver removes such tricky behaviors. o ide-cd (cdrom_newpc_intr()) In PIO mode, cdrom_newpc_intr() needs to defer end_that_request_last() until the device clears DRQ_STAT and raises an interrupt after end_that_request_first(). So end_that_request_first() and end_that_request_last() are called separately in cdrom_newpc_intr(). This means blk_end_request_callback() has to return without completing request even if no leftover in the request. To satisfy the requirement, callback function has return value so that drivers can tell blk_end_request_callback() to return without completing request.

The meanings of values are below and the value is used when bio is completed. 0 : success < 0 : error Some device drivers call some generic functions below between end_that_request_{first/chunk} and end_that_request_last(). o add_disk_randomness() o blk_queue_end_tag() o blkdev_dequeue_request() These are called in the blk_end_request interfaces as a part of generic request completion. So all device drivers become to call above functions. To decide whether to call blkdev_dequeue_request(), blk_end_request uses list_empty(&rq->queuelist) (blk_queued_rq() macro is added for it). So drivers must re-initialize it using list_init() or so before calling blk_end_request if drivers use it for its specific purpose. (Currently, there is no driver which completes request without re-initializing the queuelist after used it. So rq->queuelist can be used for the purpose above.)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently you must be root to set idle io prio class on a process. This is due to the fact that the idle class is implemented as a true idle class, meaning that it will not make progress if someone else is requesting disk access. Unfortunately this means that it opens DOS opportunities by locking down file system resources, hence it is root only at the moment. This patch relaxes the idle class a little, by removing the truly idle part (which entals a grace period with associated timer). The modifications make the idle class as close to zero impact as can be done while still guarenteeing progress. This means we can relax the root only criteria as well.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The io context sharing introduced a per-ioc spinlock, that would protect the cfq io context lookup. That is a regression from the original, since we never needed any locking there because the ioc/cic were process private. The cic lookup is changed from an rbtree construct to a radix tree, which we can then use RCU to make the reader side lockless. That is the performance critical path, modifying the radix tree is only done on process creation (when that process first does IO, actually) and on process exit (if that process has done IO). As it so happens, radix trees are also much faster for this type of lookup where the key is a pointer. It's a very sparse tree. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
