| * | [BLOCK] Reimplement elevator switchTejun Heo2005-10-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch reimplements elevator switch. This patch assumes generic dispatch queue patchset is applied. * Each request is tagged with REQ_ELVPRIV flag if it has its elevator private data set. * Requests which doesn't have REQ_ELVPRIV flag set never enter iosched. They are always directly back inserted to dispatch queue. Of course, elevator_put_req_fn is called only for requests which have its REQ_ELVPRIV set. * Request queue maintains the current number of requests which have its elevator data set (elevator_set_req_fn called) in q->rq->elvpriv. * If a request queue has QUEUE_FLAG_BYPASS set, elevator private data is not allocated for new requests. To switch to another iosched, we set QUEUE_FLAG_BYPASS and wait until elvpriv goes to zero; then, we attach the new iosched and clears QUEUE_FLAG_BYPASS. New implementation is much simpler and main code paths are less cluttered, IMHO. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

| * | [PATCH] 02/05: update ioscheds to use generic dispatch queueJens Axboe2005-10-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch updates all four ioscheds to use generic dispatch queue. There's one behavior change in as-iosched. * In as-iosched, when force dispatching (ELEVATOR_INSERT_BACK), batch_data_dir is reset to REQ_SYNC and changed_batch and new_batch are cleared to zero. This prevernts AS from doing incorrect update_write_batch after the forced dispatched requests are finished. * In cfq-iosched, cfqd->rq_in_driver currently counts the number of activated (removed) requests to determine whether queue-kicking is needed and cfq_max_depth has been reached. With generic dispatch queue, I think counting the number of dispatched requests would be more appropriate. * cfq_max_depth can be lowered to 1 again.

| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | struct gendisk has these two fields: stamp, stamp_idle. Update to stamp_idle is always in sync with stamp and they are always the same. Therefore, it does not add any value in having two fields tracking same timestamp. Suggest to remove it. Also, we should only update gendisk stats with non-zero value. Advantage is that we don't have to needlessly calculate memory address, and then add zero to the content. Signed-off-by: Ken Chen <kenneth.w.chen@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

* [PATCH] cciss: fix for DMA brokenessMike Miller2005-09-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The CCISS driver seems to loose track of DMA mappings created by it's fill_cmd() routine. Neither callers of this routine are extracting the DMA address created in order to do the unmap. Instead, they simply try to unmap 0x0. It's easy to see this problem on an x86_64 system when using the "swiotlb=force" boot option. In this case, the driver is leaking resources of the swiotlb and not causing a sync of the bounce buffer.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The soon to be released smartmontools 5.34 uses the READ DEFECT DATA command on SCSI disks. A disk that has defect list entries (or worse, an increasing number of them) is at risk. Currently the first invocation of smartctl causes this: scsi: unknown opcode 0x37 message to appear the console and in the log. The READ DEFECT DATA SCSI command does not change the state of a disk. Its opcode (0x37) is valid for SBC devices (e.g. disks) and SMC-2 devices (media changers) where it is called INITIALIZE STATUS ELEMENT WITH RANGE and again doesn't change the external state of the device.
