Merge branch 'for-3.16/drivers' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block into next

2014-06-02T20:57:01+00:00

Pull block driver changes from Jens Axboe: "Now that the core bits are in, here's the pull request for the driver related changes for 3.16. Nothing out of the ordinary here, mostly business as usual. There are a few pulls of for-3.16/core into this branch, which were done when the blk-mq was modified after the mtip32xx conversion was put in. The pull request contains: - skd and cciss converted to use pci_enable_msix_exact(). From Alexander Gordeev. - A few mtip32xx fixes from Asai @ Micron. - The conversion of mtip32xx from make_request_fn to blk-mq, and a later small fix for that conversion on quiescing for non-queued IO. From me. - A fix for bsg to use an exported function to check whether this driver is request based or not. Needed updating for blk-mq, which is request based, but does not have a request_fn hook. From me. - Small floppy bug fix from Jiri. - A series of cleanups for the cdrom uniform layer from Joe Perches. Gets rid of various old ugly macros, making the code conform more to the modern coding style. - A series of patches for drbd from the drbd crew (Lars Ellenberg and Philipp Reisner). - A use-after-free fix for null_blk from Ming Lei. - Also from Ming Lei is a performance patch for virtio-blk, which can net us a 3x win on kvm platforms where world notification is expensive. - Ming Lei also fixed a stall issue in virtio-blk, due to a race between queue start/stop and resource limits. - A small batch of fixes for xen-blk{back,front} from Olaf Hering and Valentin Priescu" * 'for-3.16/drivers' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block: (54 commits) block: virtio_blk: don't hold spin lock during world switch xen-blkback: defer freeing blkif to avoid blocking xenwatch xen blkif.h: fix comment typo in discard-alignment xen/blkback: disable discard feature if requested by toolstack xen-blkfront: remove type check from blkfront_setup_discard floppy: do not corrupt bio.bi_flags when reading block 0 mtip32xx: move error handling to service thread virtio_blk: fix race between start and stop queue mtip32xx: stop block hardware queues before quiescing IO mtip32xx: blk_mq_init_queue() returns an ERR_PTR mtip32xx: convert to use blk-mq cdrom: Remove unnecessary prototype for cdrom_get_disc_info cdrom: Remove unnecessary prototype for cdrom_mrw_exit cdrom: Remove cdrom_count_tracks prototype cdrom: Remove cdrom_get_next_writeable prototype cdrom: Remove cdrom_get_last_written prototype cdrom: Move mmc_ioctls above cdrom_ioctl to remove unnecessary prototype cdrom: Remove unnecessary sanitize_format prototype cdrom: Remove unnecessary check_for_audio_disc prototype cdrom: Remove prototype for open_for_data ...

Merge branch 'for-3.16/core' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block into next

2014-06-02T16:29:34+00:00

Pull block core updates from Jens Axboe: "It's a big(ish) round this time, lots of development effort has gone into blk-mq in the last 3 months. Generally we're heading to where 3.16 will be a feature complete and performant blk-mq. scsi-mq is progressing nicely and will hopefully be in 3.17. A nvme port is in progress, and the Micron pci-e flash driver, mtip32xx, is converted and will be sent in with the driver pull request for 3.16. This pull request contains: - Lots of prep and support patches for scsi-mq have been integrated. All from Christoph. - API and code cleanups for blk-mq from Christoph. - Lots of good corner case and error handling cleanup fixes for blk-mq from Ming Lei. - A flew of blk-mq updates from me: * Provide strict mappings so that the driver can rely on the CPU to queue mapping. This enables optimizations in the driver. * Provided a bitmap tagging instead of percpu_ida, which never really worked well for blk-mq. percpu_ida relies on the fact that we have a lot more tags available than we really need, it fails miserably for cases where we exhaust (or are close to exhausting) the tag space. * Provide sane support for shared tag maps, as utilized by scsi-mq * Various fixes for IO timeouts. * API cleanups, and lots of perf tweaks and optimizations. - Remove 'buffer' from struct request. This is ancient code, from when requests were always virtually mapped. Kill it, to reclaim some space in struct request. From me. - Remove 'magic' from blk_plug. Since we store these on the stack and since we've never caught any actual bugs with this, lets just get rid of it. From me. - Only call part_in_flight() once for IO completion, as includes two atomic reads. Hopefully we'll get a better implementation soon, as the part IO stats are now one of the more expensive parts of doing IO on blk-mq. From me. - File migration of block code from {mm,fs}/ to block/. This includes bio.c, bio-integrity.c, bounce.c, and ioprio.c. From me, from a discussion on lkml. That should describe the meat of the pull request. Also has various little fixes and cleanups from Dave Jones, Shaohua Li, Duan Jiong, Fengguang Wu, Fabian Frederick, Randy Dunlap, Robert Elliott, and Sam Bradshaw" * 'for-3.16/core' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block: (100 commits) blk-mq: push IPI or local end_io decision to __blk_mq_complete_request() blk-mq: remember to start timeout handler for direct queue block: ensure that the timer is always added blk-mq: blk_mq_unregister_hctx() can be static blk-mq: make the sysfs mq/ layout reflect current mappings blk-mq: blk_mq_tag_to_rq should handle flush request block: remove dead code in scsi_ioctl:blk_verify_command blk-mq: request initialization optimizations block: add queue flag for disabling SG merging block: remove 'magic' from struct blk_plug blk-mq: remove alloc_hctx and free_hctx methods blk-mq: add file comments and update copyright notices blk-mq: remove blk_mq_alloc_request_pinned blk-mq: do not use blk_mq_alloc_request_pinned in blk_mq_map_request blk-mq: remove blk_mq_wait_for_tags blk-mq: initialize request in __blk_mq_alloc_request blk-mq: merge blk_mq_alloc_reserved_request into blk_mq_alloc_request blk-mq: add helper to insert requests from irq context blk-mq: remove stale comment for blk_mq_complete_request() blk-mq: allow non-softirq completions ...

floppy: do not corrupt bio.bi_flags when reading block 0

2014-05-28T12:56:52+00:00

Commit 41a55b4de39 ("floppy: silence warning during disk test") caused bio.bi_flags being overwritten, and its initialization to BIO_UPTODATE in bio_init() to be lost. This was unnoticed until 7b7b68bba5 ("floppy: bail out in open() if drive is not responding to block0 read"), because the error value wasn't checked for in the bio completion callback. Now we are actually looking at the error, and the loss of BIO_UPTODATE causes EIO to be wrongly passed to the callback, which confuses the FD_OPEN_SHOULD_FAIL_BIT logic. Fix this by not destroying previous value of bi_flags when setting BIO_QUIET. Cc: Stephen Hemminger Reported-by: Takashi Iwai Signed-off-by: Jiri Kosina

floppy: don't write kernel-only members to FDRAWCMD ioctl output

2014-05-05T14:46:56+00:00

Do not leak kernel-only floppy_raw_cmd structure members to userspace. This includes the linked-list pointer and the pointer to the allocated DMA space. Signed-off-by: Matthew Daley Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

floppy: ignore kernel-only members in FDRAWCMD ioctl input

2014-05-05T14:46:55+00:00

Always clear out these floppy_raw_cmd struct members after copying the entire structure from userspace so that the in-kernel version is always valid and never left in an interdeterminate state. Signed-off-by: Matthew Daley Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

block: remove struct request buffer member

2014-04-15T20:03:02+00:00

This was used in the olden days, back when onions were proper yellow. Basically it mapped to the current buffer to be transferred. With highmem being added more than a decade ago, most drivers map pages out of a bio, and rq->buffer isn't pointing at anything valid. Convert old style drivers to just use bio_data(). For the discard payload use case, just reference the page in the bio. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

floppy: don't use PREPARE_[DELAYED_]WORK

2014-03-07T15:24:48+00:00

PREPARE_[DELAYED_]WORK() are being phased out. They have few users and a nasty surprise in terms of reentrancy guarantee as workqueue considers work items to be different if they don't have the same work function. floppy has been multiplexing floppy_work and fd_timer with multiple work functions. Introduce floppy_work_workfn() and fd_timer_workfn() which invoke floppy_work_fn and fd_timer_fn respectively and always use the two functions as the work functions and update the users to set floppy_work_fn and fd_timer_fn instead of overriding work functions using PREPARE_[DELAYED_]WORK(). It would probably be best to route this with other related updates through the workqueue tree. Lightly tested using qemu. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo Acked-by: Jiri Kosina

floppy: bail out in open() if drive is not responding to block0 read

2014-01-17T10:12:06+00:00

In case reading of block 0 during open() fails, it is not the right thing to let open() succeed. Fix this by introducing FD_OPEN_SHOULD_FAIL_BIT flag, and setting it in case the bio callback encounters an error while trying to read block 0. As a bonus, this works around certain broken userspace (blkid), which is not able to properly handle read()s returning IO errors. Hence be nice to those, and bail out during open() already; if block 0 is not readable, read()s are not going to provide any meaningful data anyway. Signed-off-by: Jiri Kosina

block: Convert bio_for_each_segment() to bvec_iter

2013-11-24T06:33:49+00:00

More prep work for immutable biovecs - with immutable bvecs drivers won't be able to use the biovec directly, they'll need to use helpers that take into account bio->bi_iter.bi_bvec_done. This updates callers for the new usage without changing the implementation yet.

block: Abstract out bvec iterator

2013-11-24T06:33:47+00:00

Immutable biovecs are going to require an explicit iterator. To implement immutable bvecs, a later patch is going to add a bi_bvec_done member to this struct; for now, this patch effectively just renames things.
