* compat_ioctl: move floppy handlers to block/compat_ioctl.cArnd Bergmann2007-10-10
| | | | | | | | The floppy ioctls are used by multiple drivers, so they should be handled in a shared location. Also, add minor cleanups. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
* compat_ioctl: move cdrom handlers to block/compat_ioctl.cArnd Bergmann2007-10-10

* compat_ioctl: add compat_blkdev_driver_ioctl()Arnd Bergmann2007-10-10

* compat_ioctl: move common block ioctls to compat_blkdev_ioctlArnd Bergmann2007-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | Make compat_blkdev_ioctl and blkdev_ioctl reflect the respective native versions. This is somewhat more efficient and makes it easier to keep the two in sync. Also get rid of the bogus handling for broken_blkgetsize and the duplicate entry for BLKRASET. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
* Drop 'size' argument from bio_endio and bi_end_ioNeilBrown2007-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | As bi_end_io is only called once when the reqeust is complete, the 'size' argument is now redundant. Remove it. Now there is no need for bio_endio to subtract the size completed from bi_size. So don't do that either. While we are at it, change bi_end_io to return void.

* Don't decrement bi_size in bio_endioNeilBrown2007-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The only caller of bio_endio that does not pass the full bi_size is end_that_request_first. Also, no ->bi_end_io method is really interested in bi_size being decremented. So move the decrement and related code into ll_rw_blk and merge it with order_bio_endio to form req_bio_endio which does endio functionality specific to request completion. As some ->bi_end_io methods do check bi_size of 0, we set it thus for now, but that will go in the next patch.

* Remove flush_dry_bio_endioNeilBrown2007-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The entire function of flush_dry_bio_endio is to undo the effects of bio_endio (when called on a barrier request). So remove the function and the call to bio_endio. This allows us to remove "bi_size" from "struct request_queue".

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | blk_rq_bio_prep is exported for use in exactly one place. That place can benefit from using the new blk_rq_append_bio instead.

* Introduce rq_for_each_segment replacing rq_for_each_bioNeilBrown2007-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Every usage of rq_for_each_bio wraps a usage of bio_for_each_segment, so these can be combined into rq_for_each_segment. We define "struct req_iterator" to hold the 'bio' and 'index' that are needed for the double iteration. Signed-off-by: Neil Brown <neilb@suse.de> Various compile fixes by me...

* Merge blk_recount_segments into blk_recalc_rq_segmentsNeilBrown2007-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | blk_recalc_rq_segments calls blk_recount_segments on each bio, then does some extra calculations to handle segments that overlap two bios. If we merge the code from blk_recount_segments into blk_recalc_rq_segments, we can process the whole request one bio_vec at a time, and not need the messy cross-bio calculations. Then blk_recount_segments can be implemented by calling blk_recalc_rq_segments, passing it a simple on-stack request which stores just the bio.

* shared tag queue barrier commentNick Piggin2007-09-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Should add some comments for the tag barriers (they won't be so important if we can switch over to the explicit _lock bitops, but for now we should make it clear). Jens' original patch said a barrier after the test_and_clear_bit was also required. I can't see why (and it would prevent the use of the _lock bitop).

* Fix race with shared tag queue mapsJens Axboe2007-09-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There's a race condition in blk_queue_end_tag() for shared tag maps, users include stex (promise supertrak thingy) and qla2xxx. The former at least has reported bugs in this area, not sure why we haven't seen any for the latter. It could be because the window is narrow and that other conditions in the qla2xxx code hide this. It's a real bug, though, as the stex smp users can attest. We need to ensure two things - the tag bit clearing needs to happen AFTER we cleared the tag pointer, as the tag bit clearing/setting is what protects this map. Secondly, we need to ensure that the visibility of the tag pointer and tag bit clear are ordered properly.

* [SCSI] bsg: update sg_io_v4 structureFUJITA Tomonori2007-07-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This updates sg_io_v4 structure (based on Doug's RFC, release 1.3).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, bsg doesn't make class backlinks (a process whereby you'd get a link to bsg in the device directory in the same way you get one for sg). This is because the bsg device is uninitialised, so the class device has nothing it can attach to. The fix is to make the bsg device point to the cdevice of the entity creating the bsg, necessitating changing the bsg_register_queue() prototype into a form that takes the generic device.

* | Slab allocators: Replace explicit zeroing with __GFP_ZEROChristoph Lameter2007-07-17
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | kmalloc_node() and kmem_cache_alloc_node() were not available in a zeroing variant in the past. But with __GFP_ZERO it is possible now to do zeroing while allocating. Use __GFP_ZERO to remove the explicit clearing of memory via memset whereever we can.

* Make BLK_DEV_BSG depend strictly on SCSI=yLinus Torvalds2007-07-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The SCSI code can be compiled modular, but BLK_DEV_BSG currently cannot, and depends on the SCSI layer. So make sure that it depends on the SCSI layer being compiled in, not just available as a module. Noticed by Jeff Garzik and S.Çağlar Onur.
