2008-10-10x86: track memtype for RAM in page structSuresh Siddha
Track the memtype for RAM pages in page struct instead of using the memtype list. This avoids the explosion in the number of entries in memtype list (of the order of 20,000 with AGP) and makes the PAT tracking simpler. We are using PG_arch_1 bit in page->flags. We still use the memtype list for non RAM pages.

2008-10-10x86, cpa: remove USER permission from the very early identity mapping attributeSuresh Siddha
remove USER from the PTE/PDE attributes for the very early identity mapping. We overwrite these mappings with KERNEL attribute later in the boot. Just being paranoid here as there is no need for USER bit to be set. If this breaks something(don't know the history), then we can simply drop this change.

2008-10-09inet: Make tunnel RX/TX byte counters more consistentHerbert Xu
This patch makes the RX/TX byte counters for IPIP, GRE and SIT more consistent. Previously we included the external IP headers on the way out but not when the packet is inbound. The new scheme is to count payload only in both directions. For IPIP and SIT this simply means the exclusion of the external IP header. For GRE this means that we exclude the GRE header as well.

It will create an ARPHRD_ETHER device in lieu of the usual ARPHRD_IPGRE.

2008-10-09block: add lld busy state exporting interfaceKiyoshi Ueda
This patch adds an new interface, blk_lld_busy(), to check lld's busy state from the block layer. blk_lld_busy() calls down into low-level drivers for the checking if the drivers set q->lld_busy_fn() using blk_queue_lld_busy(). This resolves a performance problem on request stacking devices below. Some drivers like scsi mid layer stop dispatching request when they detect busy state on its low-level device like host/target/device. It allows other requests to stay in the I/O scheduler's queue for a chance of merging. Request stacking drivers like request-based dm should follow the same logic. However, there is no generic interface for the stacked device to check if the underlying device(s) are busy. If the request stacking driver dispatches and submits requests to the busy underlying device, the requests will stay in the underlying device's queue without a chance of merging. This causes performance problem on burst I/O load. With this patch, busy state of the underlying device is exported via q->lld_busy_fn(). So the request stacking driver can check it and stop dispatching requests if busy. The underlying device driver must return the busy state appropriately: 1: when the device driver can't process requests immediately. 0: when the device driver can process requests immediately, including abnormal situations where the device driver needs to kill all requests.

2008-10-09include blktrace_api.h in headers_installSven Schuetz
This header file is of interest for user space programming, i.e. for tools that process blktrace data. We would like to use it for a tool on-top of blktrace which processes data provided by blktrace. For this purpose, it would be helpful if the blktrace API would make it to /usr/include/linux. The git tree for the blktrace tools comes with its own copy of this header file. I didn't manage to replace that copy with the file generated by the patch below yet. A few more cleanups would be needed. For example, the blktrace ioctl numbers, which are currently defined in usr/include/fs.h, might need to be moved. Should be feasible, though.

2008-10-09floppy: support arbitrary first-sector numbersKeith Wansbrough
The current floppy_struct allows floppies to number sectors starting from 0 or 1. This patch allows arbitrary first-sector numbers - for example, 0xC1 for Amstrad CPC disks. This extends the existing 1-bit field (FD_ZEROBASED, bit 2 of stretch) to 8 bits (FD_SECTMASK, bits 2 to 9). Currently 0x00 denotes a first sector number of 1, and 0x01 denotes a first sector number of 0. We extend this by interpreting FD_SECTMASK as the first sector number with the LSB flipped.

2008-10-09block: add a queue flag for request stacking supportKiyoshi Ueda
This patch adds a queue flag to indicate the block device can be used for request stacking. Request stacking drivers need to stack their devices on top of only devices of which q->request_fn is functional. Since bio stacking drivers (e.g. md, loop) basically initialize their queue using blk_alloc_queue() and don't set q->request_fn, the check of (q->request_fn == NULL) looks enough for that purpose. However, dm will become both types of stacking driver (bio-based and request-based). And dm will always set q->request_fn even if the dm device is bio-based of which q->request_fn is not functional actually. So we need something else to distinguish the type of the device. Adding a queue flag is a solution for that. The reason why dm always sets q->request_fn is to keep the compatibility of dm user-space tools. Currently, all dm user-space tools are using bio-based dm without specifying the type of the dm device they use. To use request-based dm without changing such tools, the kernel must decide the type of the dm device automatically. The automatic type decision can't be done at the device creation time and needs to be deferred until such tools load a mapping table, since the actual type is decided by dm target type included in the mapping table. So a dm device has to be initialized using blk_init_queue() so that we can load either type of table. Then, all queue stuffs are set (e.g. q->request_fn) and we have no element to distinguish that it is bio-based or request-based, even after a table is loaded and the type of the device is decided. By the way, some stuffs of the queue (e.g. request_list, elevator) are needless when the dm device is used as bio-based. But the memory size is not so large (about 20[KB] per queue on ia64), so I hope the memory loss can be acceptable for bio-based dm users.

2008-10-09block: add request submission interfaceKiyoshi Ueda
This patch adds blk_insert_cloned_request(), a generic request submission interface for request stacking drivers. Request-based dm will use it to submit their clones to underlying devices. blk_rq_check_limits() is also added because it is possible that the lower queue has stronger limitations than the upper queue if multiple drivers are stacking at request-level. Not only for blk_insert_cloned_request()'s internal use, the function will be used by request-based dm when the queue limitation is modified (e.g. by replacing dm's table).

2008-10-09block: add request update interfaceKiyoshi Ueda
This patch adds blk_update_request(), which updates struct request with completing its data part, but doesn't complete the struct request itself. Though it looks like end_that_request_first() of older kernels, blk_update_request() should be used only by request stacking drivers. Request-based dm will use it in bio->bi_end_io callback to update the original request when a data part of a cloned request completes. Followings are additional background information of why request-based dm needs this interface. - Request stacking drivers can't use blk_end_request() directly from the lower driver's completion context (bio->bi_end_io or rq->end_io), because some device drivers (e.g. ide) may try to complete their request with queue lock held, and it may cause deadlock. See below for detailed description of possible deadlock: <http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=120311479108569&w=2> - To solve that, request-based dm offloads the completion of cloned struct request to softirq context (i.e. using blk_complete_request() from rq->end_io). - Though it is possible to use the same solution from bio->bi_end_io, it will delay the notification of bio completion to the original submitter. Also, it will cause inefficient partial completion, because the lower driver can't perform the cloned request anymore and request-based dm needs to requeue and redispatch it to the lower driver again later. That's not good. - So request-based dm needs blk_update_request() to perform the bio completion in the lower driver's completion context, which is more efficient.

Two mods to blkdev_issue_discard(), thinking ahead to its use on swap: 1. Add gfp_mask argument, so swap allocation can use it where GFP_KERNEL might deadlock but GFP_NOIO is safe. 2. Enlarge nr_sects argument from unsigned to sector_t: unsigned long is enough to cover a whole swap area, but sector_t suits any partition.
