      s390/comments: unify copyright messages and remove file names · a53c8fab
      Heiko Carstens 提交于
      Remove the file name from the comment at top of many files. In most
      cases the file name was wrong anyway, so it's rather pointless.
      
      Also unify the IBM copyright statement. We did have a lot of sightly
      different statements and wanted to change them one after another
      whenever a file gets touched. However that never happened. Instead
      people start to take the old/"wrong" statements to use as a template
      for new files.
      So unify all of them in one go.

      [S390] dasd: fix race between open and offline · 65f8da47
      Stefan Weinhuber 提交于
      The dasd_open function uses the private_data pointer of the gendisk to
      find the dasd_block structure that matches the gendisk. When a DASD
      device is set offline, we set the private_data pointer of the gendisk
      to NULL and later remove the dasd_block structure, but there is still
      a small race window, in which dasd_open could first read a pointer
      from the private_data field and then try to use it, after the structure
      has already been freed.
      To close this race window, we will store a pointer to the dasd_devmap
      structure of the base device in the private_data field. The devmap
      entries are not deleted, and we already have proper locking and
      reference counting in place, so that we can safely get from a devmap
      pointer to the dasd_device and dasd_block structures of the device.

      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking... · 5a0e3ad6
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
      
      percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
      included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
      in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
      universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
      
      percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
      this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
      headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
      needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
      used as the basis of conversion.
      
        http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
      
      The script does the followings.
      
      * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
        only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
        gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
      
      * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
        blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
        to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
        core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
        alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
        doesn't seem to be any matching order.
      
      * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
        because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
        an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
        file.
      
      The conversion was done in the following steps.
      
      1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
         over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
         and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
         files.
      
      2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
         some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
         embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
         inclusions to around 150 files.
      
      3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
         from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
      
      4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
         e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
         APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
      
      5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
         editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
         files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
         inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
         wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
         slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
         necessary.
      
      6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
      
      7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
         were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
         distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
         more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
         build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
      
         * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
         * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
         * s390 SMP allmodconfig
         * alpha SMP allmodconfig
         * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
      
      8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
         a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
      
      Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
      6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
      If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
      headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
      the specific arch.

      [S390] dasd: add hyper PAV support to DASD device driver, part 1 · 8e09f215
      Stefan Weinhuber 提交于
      Parallel access volumes (PAV) is a storage server feature, that allows
      to start multiple channel programs on the same DASD in parallel. It
      defines alias devices which can be used as alternative paths to the
      same disk. With the old base PAV support we only needed rudimentary
      functionality in the DASD device driver. As the mapping between base
      and alias devices was static, we just had to export an identifier
      (uid) and could leave the combining of devices to external layers
      like a device mapper multipath.
      Now hyper PAV removes the requirement to dedicate alias devices to
      specific base devices. Instead each alias devices can be combined with
      multiple base device on a per request basis. This requires full
      support by the DASD device driver as now each channel program itself
      has to identify the target base device.
      The changes to the dasd device driver and the ECKD discipline are:
      - Separate subchannel device representation (dasd_device) from block
        device representation (dasd_block). Only base devices are block
        devices.
      - Gather information about base and alias devices and possible
        combinations.
      - For each request decide which dasd_device should be used (base or
        alias) and build specific channel program.
      - Support summary unit checks, which allow the storage server to
        upgrade / downgrade between base and hyper PAV at runtime (support
        is mandatory).

      mm: Remove slab destructors from kmem_cache_create(). · 20c2df83
      Paul Mundt 提交于
      Slab destructors were no longer supported after Christoph's
      c59def9f change. They've been
      BUGs for both slab and slub, and slob never supported them
      either.
      
      This rips out support for the dtor pointer from kmem_cache_create()
      completely and fixes up every single callsite in the kernel (there were
      about 224, not including the slab allocator definitions themselves,
      or the documentation references).
