2009-12-09powerpc/macio: Rework hotplug media bay supportBenjamin Herrenschmidt
The hotplug mediabay has tendrils deep into drivers/ide code which makes a libata port reather difficult. In addition it's ugly and could be done better. This reworks the interface between the mediabay and the rest of the world so that: - Any macio_driver can now have a mediabay_event callback which will be called when that driver sits on a mediabay and it's been either plugged or unplugged. The device type is passed as an argument. We can now move all the IDE cruft into the IDE driver itself - A check_media_bay() function can be used to take a peek at the type of device currently in the bay if any, a cleaner variant of the previous function with the same name. - A pair of lock/unlock functions are exposed to allow the IDE driver to block the hotplug callbacks during the initial setup and probing of the bay in order to avoid nasty race conditions. - The mediabay code no longer needs to spin on the status register of the IDE interface when it detects an IDE device, this is done just fine by the IDE code itself Overall, less code, simpler, and allows for another driver than our old drivers/ide based one.

2009-11-23cciss: change Cmd_sg_list.sg_chain_dma type to dma_addr_tAlex Chiang
A recent commit broke the ia64 build: Author: Don Brace <brace@beardog.cce.hp.com> Date: Thu Nov 12 12:50:01 2009 -0600 cciss: Add enhanced scatter-gather support. because of this hunk: --- a/drivers/block/cciss.h +++ b/drivers/block/cciss.h +struct Cmd_sg_list { + SGDescriptor_struct *sgchain; + dma64_addr_t sg_chain_dma; + int chain_block_size; +}; The issue is that dma64_addr_t isn't #define'd on ia64. The way that we're using Cmd_sg_list.sg_chain_dma is to hold an address returned from pci_map_single(). + temp64.val = pci_map_single(h->pdev, + h->cmd_sg_list[c->cmdindex]->sgchain, + len, dir); + + h->cmd_sg_list[c->cmdindex]->sg_chain_dma = temp64.val; pci_map_single() returns a dma_addr_t too. This code will still work even on a 32-bit x86 build, where dma_addr_t is defined to be a u32 because it will simply be promoted to the __u64 that temp64.val is defined as. Thus, declaring Cmd_sg_list.sg_chain_dma as dma_addr_t is safe. Cc: Don Brace <brace@beardog.cce.hp.com> Cc: Stephen M.

2009-11-13cciss: Do not automatically rescan on UNIT ATTENTION/LUN DATA CHANGEDStephen M. Cameron
cciss: Do not automatically rescan on UNIT ATTENTION/LUN DATA CHANGED There are problems with doing this. If, say, several logical drives are deleted at once, several such UNIT ATTENTIONS will be encountered, often during the rescan triggered by the first such UNIT ATTENTION. The block layer may be in the midst of trying to add logical drives which were just deleted (resulting in the subsequent UNIT ATTENTION(s).) Making the rescan code robust enough to tolerate this kind of thing is too complicated for the moment. So, for now, we just don't do it.

2009-11-09ataflop: remove buggy/commented-out IRQ disable from do_fd_request()Jiri Kosina
There is a nice gem in drivers/block/ataflop.c::do_fd_request() void do_fd_request(struct request_queue * q) { unsigned long flags; DPRINT(("do_fd_request for pid %d\n",current->pid)); while( fdc_busy ) sleep_on( &fdc_wait ); fdc_busy = 1; stdma_lock(floppy_irq, NULL); atari_disable_irq( IRQ_MFP_FDC ); local_save_flags(flags); /* The request function is called with ints local_irq_disable(); * disabled... so must save the IPL for later */ redo_fd_request(); local_irq_restore(flags); atari_enable_irq( IRQ_MFP_FDC ); } If you look at the code long enough, you will notioce that the local_irq_disable() call is actually commented out. This has been introduced back in 2002 in [1], but as you can see, the same bug has been there even before, with the sti() call being commented out in the very same way :) I am not familiar with the code myself at all, but I guess that the whole stuff can just be removed. Why do we need save_flags/restore_flags at all, without actually disabling the local IRQs afterwards? The redo_fd_request() doesn't seem to do anything that would mess with flags inconsistently. [1] http://lkml.org/lkml/2002/12/27/58 Jens: That does look odd. The comment is correct that the function is entered with interrupts disabled (and the queue lock held). So I'd say your patch looks fine, the whole save/restore business looks meaningless.

2009-11-04block/ps3: fix slow VRAM IOHideyuki Sasaki
The current PS3 VRAM driver uses msleep() to wait for completion of RSX DMA transfers between system memory and VRAM. Depending on the system timing, the processing delay and overhead of this msleep() call can significantly impact VRAM driver IO. To avoid the condition, add a short duration (200 usec max) udelay() polling loop before entering the msleep() polling loop.

Rusty, commit 3ca4f5ca73057a617f9444a91022d7127041970a virtio: add virtio IDs file moved all device IDs into a single file. While the change itself is a very good one, it can break userspace applications. For example if a userspace tool wanted to get the ID of virtio_net it used to include virtio_net.h. This does no longer work, since virtio_net.h does not include virtio_ids.h. This patch moves all "#include <linux/virtio_ids.h>" from the C files into the header files, making the header files compatible with the old ones. In addition, this patch exports virtio_ids.h to userspace.

2009-10-22virtio_blk: revert QUEUE_FLAG_VIRT additionChristoph Hellwig
It seems like the addition of QUEUE_FLAG_VIRT caueses major performance regressions for Fedora users: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=509383 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=505695 while I can't reproduce those extreme regressions myself I think the flag is wrong. Rationale: QUEUE_FLAG_VIRT expands to QUEUE_FLAG_NONROT which casus the queue unplugged immediately. This is not a good behaviour for at least qemu and kvm where we do have significant overhead for every I/O operations. Even with all the latested speeups (native AIO, MSI support, zero copy) we can only get native speed for up to 128kb I/O requests we already are down to 66% of native performance for 4kb requests even on my laptop running the Intel X25-M SSD for which the QUEUE_FLAG_NONROT was designed. If we ever get virtio-blk overhead low enough that this flag makes sense it should only be set based on a feature flag set by the host.

Add cciss_allow_hpsa module parameter. This parameter causes the cciss driver to ignore any Smart Array devices known to be supported by the hpsa driver. Signed-off-by: Stephen M. Cameron <scameron@beardog.cce.hp.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

Fix multiple calls to pci_release_regions. If cciss_pci_init fails, it already does any necessary call to pci_release_regions, so this does not need to be done again in cciss_init_one in that case.
