2008-10-10ide: WIN_* -> ATA_CMD_*Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz
* Use ATA_CMD_* defines instead of WIN_* ones. While at it: * EXABYTE_ENABLE_NEXT -> ATA_EXABYTE_ENABLE_NEST * SETFEATURES_{EN,DIS}_WCACHE -> SETFEATURES_WC_{ON,OFF} * SETFEATURES_{EN,DIS}_AAM -> SETFEATURES_AAM_{ON,OFF} * SMART_* -> ATA_SMART_* * Remove stale comment from ide-proc.c. Partially based on earlier work by Chris Wedgwood. Acked-by: Chris Wedgwood <cw@f00f.org> Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@gmail.com>

2008-10-10ide: remove drive->driveidBartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz
* Factor out HDIO_[OBSOLETE,GET]_IDENTITY ioctls handling to ide_get_identity_ioctl(). * Use temporary buffer in ide_get_identity_ioctl() instead of accessing drive->id directly. * Add ide_id_to_hd_driveid() inline to convert raw id into struct hd_driveid format (needed on big-endian). * Use ide_id_to_hd_driveid() in ide_get_identity_ioctl(), cleanup ide_fix_driveid() and switch ide to use use raw id. * Remove no longer needed drive->driveid. This leaves us with 3 users of struct hd_driveid in tree: - arch/um/drivers/ubd_kern.c - drivers/block/xsysace.c - drivers/usb/storage/isd200.c While at it: * Use ata_id_u{32,64}() and ata_id_has_{dma,lba,iordy}() macros. There should be no functional changes caused by this patch. Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@gmail.com>
2008-10-10ide: make drive->id an union (take 2)Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz
Make drive->id an unnamed union so id can be accessed either by using 'u16 *id' or 'struct hd_driveid *driveid'. Then convert all existing drive->id users accordingly (using 'u16 *id' when possible). This is an intermediate step to make ide 'struct hd_driveid'-free. While at it: - Add missing KERN_CONTs in it821x.c. - Use ATA_ID_WORDS and ATA_ID_*_LEN defines. - Remove unnecessary checks for drive->id. - s/drive_table/table/ in ide_in_drive_list(). - Cleanup ide_config_drive_speed() a bit. - s/drive1/dev1/ & s/drive0/dev0/ in ide_undecoded_slave(). v2: Fix typo in drivers/ide/ppc/pmac.c.

2008-10-10Fix barrier fail detection in XFSChristoph Hellwig
Currently we disable barriers as soon as we get a buffer in xlog_iodone that has the XBF_ORDERED flag cleared. But this can be the case not only for buffers where the barrier failed, but also the first buffer of a split log write in case of a log wraparound. Due to the disabled barriers we can easily get directory corruption on unclean shutdowns. So instead of using this check add a new buffer flag for failed barrier writes. This is a regression vs 2.6.26 caused by patch to use the right macro to check for the ORDERED flag, as we previously got true returned for every buffer. Thanks to Toei Rei for reporting the bug.

2008-10-10PnP: move pnpacpi/pnpbios_init to after PCI initLinus Torvalds
We already did that a long time ago for pnp_system_init, but pnpacpi_init and pnpbios_init remained as subsys_initcalls, and get linked into the kernel before the arch-specific routines that finalize the PCI resources (pci_subsys_init). This means that the PnP routines would either register their resources before the PCI layer could, or would be unable to check whether a PCI resource had already been registered. Both are problematic. I wanted to do this before 2.6.27, but every time we change something like this, something breaks. That said, _every_ single time we trust some firmware (like PnP tables) more than we trust the hardware itself (like PCI probing), the problems have been worse.

2008-10-10dm crypt: avoid unnecessary wait when splitting bioMilan Broz
Don't wait between submitting crypt requests for a bio unless we are short of memory. There are two situations when we must split an encrypted bio: 1) there are no free pages; 2) the new bio would violate underlying device restrictions (e.g. max hw segments). In case (2) we do not need to wait. Add output variable to crypt_alloc_buffer() to distinguish between these cases.

2008-10-10dm raid1: kcopyd should stop on error if errors handledJonathan Brassow
dm-raid1 is setting the 'DM_KCOPYD_IGNORE_ERROR' flag unconditionally when assigning kcopyd work. kcopyd is responsible for copying an assigned section of disk to one or more other disks. The 'DM_KCOPYD_IGNORE_ERROR' flag affects kcopyd in the following way: When not set: kcopyd will immediately stop the copy operation when an error is encountered. When set: kcopyd will try to proceed regardless of errors and try to continue copying any remaining amount. Since dm-raid1 tracks regions of the address space that are (or are not) in sync and it now has the ability to handle these errors, we can safely enable this optimization. This optimization is conditional on whether mirror error handling has been enabled. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Brassow <jbrassow@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>

2008-10-09Don't allow splice() to files opened with O_APPENDLinus Torvalds
This is debatable, but while we're debating it, let's disallow the combination of splice and an O_APPEND destination. It's not entirely clear what the semantics of O_APPEND should be, and POSIX apparently expects pwrite() to ignore O_APPEND, for example. So we could make up any semantics we want, including the old ones. But Miklos convinced me that we should at least give it some thought, and that accepting writes at arbitrary offsets is wrong at least for IS_APPEND() files (which always have O_APPEND set, even if the reverse isn't true: you can obviously have O_APPEND set on a regular file). So disallow O_APPEND entirely for now. I doubt anybody cares, and this way we have one less gray area to worry about.
