      [ARM] Double check memmap is actually valid with a memmap has unexpected holes V2 · eb33575c
      Mel Gorman 提交于
      pfn_valid() is meant to be able to tell if a given PFN has valid memmap
      associated with it or not. In FLATMEM, it is expected that holes always
      have valid memmap as long as there is valid PFNs either side of the hole.
      In SPARSEMEM, it is assumed that a valid section has a memmap for the
      entire section.
      
      However, ARM and maybe other embedded architectures in the future free
      memmap backing holes to save memory on the assumption the memmap is never
      used. The page_zone linkages are then broken even though pfn_valid()
      returns true. A walker of the full memmap must then do this additional
      check to ensure the memmap they are looking at is sane by making sure the
      zone and PFN linkages are still valid. This is expensive, but walkers of
      the full memmap are extremely rare.
      
      This was caught before for FLATMEM and hacked around but it hits again for
      SPARSEMEM because the page_zone linkages can look ok where the PFN linkages
      are totally screwed. This looks like a hatchet job but the reality is that
      any clean solution would end up consumning all the memory saved by punching
      these unexpected holes in the memmap. For example, we tried marking the
      memmap within the section invalid but the section size exceeds the size of
      the hole in most cases so pfn_valid() starts returning false where valid
      memmap exists. Shrinking the size of the section would increase memory
      consumption offsetting the gains.
      
      This patch identifies when an architecture is punching unexpected holes
      in the memmap that the memory model cannot automatically detect and sets
      ARCH_HAS_HOLES_MEMORYMODEL. At the moment, this is restricted to EP93xx
      which is the model sub-architecture this has been reported on but may expand
      later. When set, walkers of the full memmap must call memmap_valid_within()
      for each PFN and passing in what it expects the page and zone to be for
      that PFN. If it finds the linkages to be broken, it assumes the memmap is
      invalid for that PFN.

      libata: Media rotation rate and form factor heuristics · 4bca3286

      This patch provides new heuristics for parsing both the form factor and
      media rotation rate ATA IDENFITY words.
      
      The reported ATA version must be 7 or greater and the device must return
      values defined as valid in the standard.  Only then are the
      characteristics reported to SCSI via the VPD B1 page.
      
      This seems like a reasonable compromise to me considering that we have

      block: implement and enforce request peek/start/fetch · 9934c8c0
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Till now block layer allowed two separate modes of request execution.
      A request is always acquired from the request queue via
      elv_next_request().  After that, drivers are free to either dequeue it
      or process it without dequeueing.  Dequeue allows elv_next_request()
      to return the next request so that multiple requests can be in flight.
      
      Executing requests without dequeueing has its merits mostly in
      allowing drivers for simpler devices which can't do sg to deal with
      segments only without considering request boundary.  However, the
      benefit this brings is dubious and declining while the cost of the API
      ambiguity is increasing.  Segment based drivers are usually for very
      old or limited devices and as converting to dequeueing model isn't
      difficult, it doesn't justify the API overhead it puts on block layer
      and its more modern users.
      
      Previous patches converted all block low level drivers to dequeueing
      model.  This patch completes the API transition by...
      
      * renaming elv_next_request() to blk_peek_request()
      
      * renaming blkdev_dequeue_request() to blk_start_request()
      
      * adding blk_fetch_request() which is combination of peek and start
      
      * disallowing completion of queued (not started) requests
      
      * applying new API to all LLDs
      
      Renamings are for consistency and to break out of tree code so that
      it's apparent that out of tree drivers need updating.

      Block low level drivers for some reason have been pretty good at
      abusing block layer API.  Especially struct request's fields tend to
      get violated in all possible ways.  Make it clear that low level
      drivers MUST NOT access or manipulate rq->sector and rq->data_len
      directly by prefixing them with double underscores.
      
      This change is also necessary to break build of out-of-tree codes
      which assume the previous block API where internal fields can be
      manipulated and rq->data_len carries residual count on completion.

      block: drop request->hard_* and *nr_sectors · 2e46e8b2
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      struct request has had a few different ways to represent some
      properties of a request.  ->hard_* represent block layer's view of the
      request progress (completion cursor) and the ones without the prefix
      are supposed to represent the issue cursor and allowed to be updated
      as necessary by the low level drivers.  The thing is that as block
      layer supports partial completion, the two cursors really aren't
      necessary and only cause confusion.  In addition, manual management of
      request detail from low level drivers is cumbersome and error-prone at
      the very least.
      
      Another interesting duplicate fields are rq->[hard_]nr_sectors and
      rq->{hard_cur|current}_nr_sectors against rq->data_len and
      rq->bio->bi_size.  This is more convoluted than the hard_ case.
      
      rq->[hard_]nr_sectors are initialized for requests with bio but
      blk_rq_bytes() uses it only for !pc requests.  rq->data_len is
      initialized for all request but blk_rq_bytes() uses it only for pc
      requests.  This causes good amount of confusion throughout block layer
      and its drivers and determining the request length has been a bit of
      black magic which may or may not work depending on circumstances and
      what the specific LLD is actually doing.
      
      rq->{hard_cur|current}_nr_sectors represent the number of sectors in
      the contiguous data area at the front.  This is mainly used by drivers
      which transfers data by walking request segment-by-segment.  This
      value always equals rq->bio->bi_size >> 9.  However, data length for
      pc requests may not be multiple of 512 bytes and using this field
      becomes a bit confusing.
      
      In general, having multiple fields to represent the same property
      leads only to confusion and subtle bugs.  With recent block low level
      driver cleanups, no driver is accessing or manipulating these
      duplicate fields directly.  Drop all the duplicates.  Now rq->sector
      means the current sector, rq->data_len the current total length and
      rq->bio->bi_size the current segment length.  Everything else is
      defined in terms of these three and available only through accessors.
      
      * blk_recalc_rq_sectors() is collapsed into blk_update_request() and
        now handles pc and fs requests equally other than rq->sector update.
        This means that now pc requests can use partial completion too (no
        in-kernel user yet tho).
      
      * bio_cur_sectors() is replaced with bio_cur_bytes() as block layer
        now uses byte count as the primary data length.
      
      * blk_rq_pos() is now guranteed to be always correct.  In-block users
        converted.
      
      * blk_rq_bytes() is now guaranteed to be always valid as is
        blk_rq_sectors().  In-block users converted.
      
      * blk_rq_sectors() is now guaranteed to equal blk_rq_bytes() >> 9.
        More convenient one is used.
      
      * blk_rq_bytes() and blk_rq_cur_bytes() are now inlined and take const
        pointer to request.

      block: add rq->resid_len · c3a4d78c
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      rq->data_len served two purposes - the length of data buffer on issue
      and the residual count on completion.  This duality creates some
      headaches.
      
      First of all, block layer and low level drivers can't really determine
      what rq->data_len contains while a request is executing.  It could be
      the total request length or it coulde be anything else one of the
      lower layers is using to keep track of residual count.  This
      complicates things because blk_rq_bytes() and thus
      [__]blk_end_request_all() relies on rq->data_len for PC commands.
      Drivers which want to report residual count should first cache the
      total request length, update rq->data_len and then complete the
      request with the cached data length.
      
      Secondly, it makes requests default to reporting full residual count,
      ie. reporting that no data transfer occurred.  The residual count is
      an exception not the norm; however, the driver should clear
      rq->data_len to zero to signify the normal cases while leaving it
      alone means no data transfer occurred at all.  This reverse default
      behavior complicates code unnecessarily and renders block PC on some
      drivers (ide-tape/floppy) unuseable.
      
      This patch adds rq->resid_len which is used only for residual count.
      
      While at it, remove now unnecessasry blk_rq_bytes() caching in
      ide_pc_intr() as rq->data_len is not changed anymore.
