* [PATCH] vfs: add lock owner argument to flush operationMiklos Szeredi2006-06-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Pass the POSIX lock owner ID to the flush operation. This is useful for filesystems which don't want to store any locking state in inode->i_flock but want to handle locking/unlocking POSIX locks internally. FUSE is one such filesystem but I think it possible that some network filesystems would need this also. Also add a flag to indicate that a POSIX locking request was generated by close(), so filesystems using the above feature won't send an extra locking request in this case.

* [SCSI] Remove devfs support from the SCSI subsystemGreg KH2006-02-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | As devfs has been disabled from the kernel tree for a number of months now (5 to be exact), here's a patch against 2.6.16-rc1-git1 that removes support for it from the SCSI subsystem.

* [SCSI] Prevent scsi_execute_async from guessing cdb lengthbrking@us.ibm.com2006-01-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the scsi_execute_async interface was added it ended up reducing the flexibility of userspace to send arbitrary scsi commands through sg using SG_IO. The SG_IO interface allows userspace to specify the CDB length. This is now ignored in scsi_execute_async and it is guessed using the COMMAND_SIZE macro, which is not always correct, particularly for vendor specific commands. This patch adds a cmd_len parameter to the scsi_execute_async interface to allow the caller to specify the length of the CDB.

* [SCSI] always handle REQ_BLOCK_PC requests in common codeChristoph Hellwig2006-01-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | LLDDs should never see REQ_BLOCK_PC requests, we can handle them just fine in the core code. There is a small behaviour change in that some check in sr's rw_intr are bypassed, but I consider the old behaviour a bug. Mike found this cleanup opportunity and provdided early patches, so all the credit goes to him, even if I redid the patches from scratch beause that was easier than forward-porting the old patches.

You also have to compile your > > kernel with SCSI_MAX_PHYS_SEGMENTS == 255 to get larger requests now. > It was an oops in sgl_unmap_user_pages(). The reason is this: /* XXX: just for debug. Remove when PageReserved is removed */ BUG_ON(PageReserved(page)); I was using /dev/zero as input and it triggers this. When I used a file as input, this did not trigger. Should this BUG_ON be removed? In the same log I noticed that there was another ->sg_segs inconsistency. Also, the field ->last_SRpnt was not reset when scsi_execute_async() failed. This caused the error message "Async command already active" later and prevented proper close. While doing the changes, I noticed that the current code (since 2.6.0-test4) does not set the pages dirty when reading with direct i/o. All of these st problems (including the one I sent earlier) are fixed in the patch at the end of this message. These fixes should probably be included already in 2.6.15. After these fixes, the tape seems to operate as expected. Without other changes, the largest block size with sym53c896 SCSI adapter is 384 kB. The maximum number of sg segments is set to 96 and clustering is disabled in the driver. 96 x 4 kB = 384 kB. OK. I enabled clustering and set max_sectors to 10000 in the SCSI HBA driver. Now the block size limit is 5000 kB as expected. Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>
* | [SCSI] convert st to use scsi_execute_asyncMike Christie2005-12-14

This is the same as last time as it was posted, but with Kai's patches merged and we now pass the bytes value to scsi_execute_async. TODO: - move DIO code to common place or make block layers usable for ULDs. - move buffer allocation code to common place for all ULDs to use. And make buffer allocation code handle all queue limits so we can find out about problems before calling scsi_execute_async. - move indirect (copy_to/from_user) paths commone place or make block layers usable for ULDs.

* | [SCSI] complete the whole command when it is REQ_BLOCK_PCMike Christie2005-12-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | sd does not allow scsi_io_completion to retry commands for SG_IO requests, and it make sense that it should not happen for st SG_IO commands too. If for st we hit the bottom of scsi_io_completion we will probably screw things up pretty bad. This patch returns to the block layer that the whole command completed and relies on the caller to check the request errors field. For initialization commands like in sd, this adds the previous behavior where scsi_io_completion did not process the error.

* [SCSI] sg and st unmap_user_pages allow PageReservedHugh Dickins2005-12-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 2.6.15-rc1 made sg's st_unmap_user_pages and st's sgl_unmap_user_pages BUG on a PageReserved page. But that's wrong: they could be unmapping the ZERO_PAGE, which is marked PG_reserved; and perhaps others (while get_user_pages is still permitted on VM_PFNMAP areas - that may change). More change is needed here: sg claims to dirty even pages written from, and st claims not to dirty even pages read into; and SetPageDirty is not adequate for this nowadays. Fixes to those follow in a later patch: for the moment just fix the 2.6.15 regression.

* [SCSI] st: fix a bug in sgl_map_user_pages failure path Hugh Dickins2005-12-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Nick and I had already been looking at drivers/scsi/{sg.c,st.c}, brought there by __put_page in sg.c's peculiar sg_rb_correct4mmap, which we'd like to remove. But that's irrelevant to your pain, except... One extract from the patches I'd like to send Doug and Kai for 2.6.15 or 2.6.16 is this below: since the incomplete get_user_pages path omits to reset res, but has already released all the pages, it will result in premature freeing of user pages, and behaviour just like you've seen. Though I'd have thought incomplete get_user_pages was an exceptional case, and a bit surprised you'd encounter it. Perhaps there's some other premature freeing in the driver, and this instance has nothing whatever to do with it. If the problem were easily reproducible, it'd be great if you could try this patch; but I think you've said it's not :-( Signed-off-by: Kai Makisara <kai.makisara@kolumbus.fi> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>

PageReserved special casing is removed from get_page and put_page. All setting and clearing of PageReserved is retained, and it is now flagged in the page_alloc checks to help ensure we don't introduce any refcount based freeing of Reserved pages. MAP_PRIVATE, PROT_WRITE of VM_RESERVED regions is tentatively being deprecated. We never completely handled it correctly anyway, and is be reintroduced in future if required (Hugh has a proof of concept). Once PageReserved() calls are removed from kernel/power/swsusp.c, and all arch/ and driver code, the Set and Clear calls, and the PG_reserved bit can be trivially removed. Last real user of PageReserved is swsusp, which uses PageReserved to determine whether a struct page points to valid memory or not. This still needs to be addressed (a generic page_is_ram() should work). A last caveat: the ZERO_PAGE is now refcounted and managed with rmap (and thus mapcounted and count towards shared rss). These writes to the struct page could cause excessive cacheline bouncing on big systems. There are a number of ways this could be addressed if it is an issue.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it.
