The memset() of the sg entry was originally removed, because it could overwrite a chain pointer. But it's quite OK to memset() it when we know it's a valid entry, since it can't contain a chain pointer. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

Remove the size limit max_sectors_kb imposed on max_readahead_kb. The size restriction is unreasonable.

2007-10-12cdev: remove unneeded setting of cdev namesGreg Kroah-Hartman

2007-10-12kobjects: fix up improper use of the kobject name fieldGreg Kroah-Hartman
A number of different drivers incorrect access the kobject name field directly. This is not correct as the name might not be in the array. Use the proper accessor function instead.
2007-10-12Driver core: change add_uevent_var to use a structKay Sievers
This changes the uevent buffer functions to use a struct instead of a long list of parameters. It does no longer require the caller to do the proper buffer termination and size accounting, which is currently wrong in some places. It fixes a known bug where parts of the uevent environment are overwritten because of wrong index calculations. Many thanks to Mathieu Desnoyers for finding bugs and improving the error handling.

2007-10-10compat_ioctl: move common block ioctls to compat_blkdev_ioctlArnd Bergmann

2007-10-10Drop 'size' argument from bio_endio and bi_end_ioNeilBrown
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. Signed-off-by: Neil Brown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
2007-10-10Don't decrement bi_size in bio_endioNeilBrown
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.

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".

2007-10-10Stop exporting blk_rq_bio_prepNeilBrown
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. So - change dm-emc to call blk_rq_append_bio - stop exporting blk_rq_bio_prep, and - initialise rq_disk in blk_rq_bio_prep, as dm-emc needs it.

2007-10-10New function blk_req_append_bioNeilBrown
ll_back_merge_fn is currently exported to SCSI where is it used, together with blk_rq_bio_prep, in exactly the same way these functions are used in __blk_rq_map_user. So move the common code into a new function (blk_rq_append_bio), and don't export ll_back_merge_fn any longer.

2007-10-10Introduce rq_for_each_segment replacing rq_for_each_bioNeilBrown
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... Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
2007-10-10Merge blk_recount_segments into blk_recalc_rq_segmentsNeilBrown
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.

2007-09-14shared tag queue barrier commentNick Piggin
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).

2007-09-13Fix race with shared tag queue mapsJens Axboe
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. [ I removed the SMP barriers - "test_and_clear_bit()" already implies all the required barriers. -- Linus ] Also see http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7842 Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
