* mm: bdi: export BDI attributes in sysfsPeter Zijlstra2008-04-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Provide a place in sysfs (/sys/class/bdi) for the backing_dev_info object. This allows us to see and set the various BDI specific variables. In particular this properly exposes the read-ahead window for all relevant users and /sys/block/<block>/queue/read_ahead_kb should be deprecated. With patient help from Kay Sievers and Greg KH [mszeredi@suse.cz] - split off NFS and FUSE changes into separate patches - document new sysfs attributes under Documentation/ABI - do bdi_class_init as a core_initcall, otherwise the "default" BDI won't be initialized - remove bdi_init_fmt macro, it's not used very much [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix ia64 warning] Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Acked-by: Greg KH <greg@kroah.com> Cc: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@fys.uio.no> Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
* block: Skip I/O merges when disabledAlan D. Brunelle2008-04-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The block I/O + elevator + I/O scheduler code spend a lot of time trying to merge I/Os -- rightfully so under "normal" circumstances. However, if one were to know that the incoming I/O stream was /very/ random in nature, the cycles are wasted. This patch adds a per-request_queue tunable that (when set) disables merge attempts (beyond the simple one-hit cache check), thus freeing up a non-trivial amount of CPU cycles. Signed-off-by: Alan D.

* block: add large command supportFUJITA Tomonori2008-04-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch changes rq->cmd from the static array to a pointer to support large commands. We rarely handle large commands. So for optimization, a struct request still has a static array for a command. rq_init sets rq->cmd pointer to the static array.

* [SCSI] bsg: add release callback supportFUJITA Tomonori2008-04-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds release callback support, which is called when a bsg device goes away. bsg_register_queue() takes a pointer to a callback function. This feature is useful for stuff like sas_host that can't use the release callback in struct device. If a caller doesn't need bsg's release callback, it can call bsg_register_queue() with NULL pointer (e.g. scsi devices can use release callback in struct device so they don't need bsg's callback). With this patch, bsg uses kref for refcounts on bsg devices instead of get/put_device in fops->open/release. bsg calls put_device and the caller's release callback (if it was registered) in kref_put's release.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | blk_register_queue() returns -ENXIO when queue->request_fn is NULL. But there are some block drivers that call blk_register_queue() via add_disk() with queue->request_fn == NULL. (For example, brd, loop) Although no one checks return value of blk_register_queue(), this patch makes it return 0 instead of -ENXIO when queue->request_fn is NULL, Also this patch adds warning when blk_register_queue() and blk_unregister_queue() are called with queue == NULL rather than ignore invalid usage silently.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Modify the help descriptions of block/Kconfig for clarity, accuracy and consistency. Refactor the BLOCK description a bit. The wording "This permits ... to be removed" isn't quite right; the block layer is removed when the option is disabled, whereas most descriptions talk about what happens when the option is enabled. Reformat the list of what is affected by disabling the block layer. Add more examples of large block devices to LBD and strive for technical accuracy; block devices of size _exactly_ 2TB require CONFIG_LBD, not only "bigger than 2TB". Also try to say (perhaps not very clearly) that the config option is only needed when you want to have individual block devices of size >= 2TB, for example if you had 3 x 1TB disks in your computer you'd have a total storage size of 3TB but you wouldn't need the option unless you want to aggregate those disks into a RAID or LVM. Improve terminology and grammar on BLK_DEV_IO_TRACE. I also added the boilerplate "If unsure, say N" to most options. Precisely say "2TB and larger" for LSF. Indent the help text for BLK_DEV_BSG by 2 spaces in accordance with the standard.

| * block: move the padding adjustment to blk_rq_map_sgFUJITA Tomonori2008-04-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | blk_rq_map_user adjusts bi_size of the last bio. It breaks the rule that req->data_len (the true data length) is equal to sum(bio). It broke the scsi command completion code. commit e97a294ef6938512b655b1abf17656cf2b26f709 was introduced to fix the above issue. However, the partial completion code doesn't work with it. The commit is also a layer violation (scsi mid-layer should not know about the block layer's padding). This patch moves the padding adjustment to blk_rq_map_sg (suggested by James). The padding works like the drain buffer. This patch breaks the rule that req->data_len is equal to sum(sg), however, the drain buffer already broke it. So this patch just restores the rule that req->data_len is equal to sub(bio) without breaking anything new. Now when a low level driver needs padding, blk_rq_map_user and blk_rq_map_user_iov guarantee there's enough room for padding. blk_rq_map_sg can safely extend the last entry of a scatter list. blk_rq_map_sg must extend the last entry of a scatter list only for a request that got through bio_copy_user_iov. This patches introduces new REQ_COPY_USER flag.

| * block: add bio_copy_user_iov support to blk_rq_map_user_iovFUJITA Tomonori2008-04-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With this patch, blk_rq_map_user_iov uses bio_copy_user_iov when a low level driver needs padding or a buffer in sg_iovec isn't aligned. That is, it uses temporary kernel buffers instead of mapping user pages directly. When a LLD needs padding, later blk_rq_map_sg needs to extend the last entry of a scatter list. bio_copy_user_iov guarantees that there is enough space for padding by using temporary kernel buffers instead of user pages. blk_rq_map_user_iov needs buffers in sg_iovec to be aligned. The comment in blk_rq_map_user_iov indicates that drivers/scsi/sg.c also needs buffers in sg_iovec to be aligned. Actually, drivers/scsi/sg.c works with unaligned buffers in sg_iovec (it always uses temporary kernel buffers).

* | cfq-iosched: do not leak ioc_data across iosched switchesFabio Checconi2008-04-10
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When switching scheduler from cfq, cfq_exit_queue() does not clear ioc->ioc_data, leaving a dangling pointer that can deceive the following lookups when the iosched is switched back to cfq. The pattern that can trigger that is the following: - elevator switch from cfq to something else; - module unloading, with elv_unregister() that calls cfq_free_io_context() on ioc freeing the cic (via the .trim op); - module gets reloaded and the elevator switches back to cfq; - reallocation of a cic at the same address as before (with a valid key). To fix it just assign NULL to ioc_data in __cfq_exit_single_io_context(), that is called from the regular exit path and from the elevator switching code. The only path that frees a cic and is not covered is the error handling one, but cic's freed in this way are never cached in ioc_data.

* Fix bounce setting for 64-bitAndrea Arcangeli2008-04-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Looking a bit closer into this regression the reason this can't be right is that dma_addr common default is BLK_BOUNCE_HIGH and most machines have less than 4G. So if you do: if (b_pfn <= (min_t(u64, 0xffffffff, BLK_BOUNCE_HIGH) >> PAGE_SHIFT)) dma = 1 that will translate to: if (BLK_BOUNCE_HIGH <= BLK_BOUNCE_HIGH) dma = 1 So for 99% of hardware this will trigger unnecessary GFP_DMA allocations and isa pooling operations. Also note how the 32bit code still does b_pfn < blk_max_low_pfn. I guess this is what you were looking after. I didn't verify but as far as I can tell, this will stop the regression with isa dma operations at boot for 99% of blkdev/memory combinations out there and I guess this fixes the setups with >4G of ram and 32bit pci cards as well (this also retains symmetry with the 32bit code).

* block: separate out padding from alignmentTejun Heo2008-03-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Block layer alignment was used for two different purposes - memory alignment and padding. This causes problems in lower layers because drivers which only require memory alignment ends up with adjusted rq->data_len. Separate out padding such that padding occurs iff driver explicitly requests it. Tomo: restorethe code to update bio in blk_rq_map_user introduced by the commit 40b01b9bbdf51ae543a04744283bf2d56c4a6afa according to padding alignment.

* 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. This patch makes elevator_get() request_module() to attempt to load the appropriate module, instead of requiring that done manually. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
