Create a new attribute for virtio-blk devices that will fetch the serial number of the block device. This attribute can be used by udev to create disk/by-id symlinks for devices that don't have a UUID (filesystem) associated with them. ATA_IDENTIFY strings are special in that they can be up to 20 chars long and aren't required to be nul-terminated. The buffer is also zero-padded meaning that if the serial is 19 chars or less that we get a nul-terminated string. When copying this value into a string buffer, we must be careful to copy up to the nul (if it present) and only 20 if it is longer and not to attempt to nul terminate; this isn't needed. Changes since v1: - Added BUILD_BUG_ON() for PAGE_SIZE check - Removed min() since BUILD_BUG_ON() handles the check - Replaced serial_sysfs() by copying id directly to buffer Signed-off-by: NRyan Harper <ryanh@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Njohn cooper <john.cooper@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NRusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

If we want to support barriers with the cache=writethrough mode in qemu we need to tell the block layer that we only need queue drains to implement a barrier. Follow the model set by SCSI and IDE and assume that there is no volatile write cache if the host doesn't advertize it. While this might imply working barriers on old qemu versions or other hypervisors that actually have a volatile write cache this is only a cosmetic issue - these hypervisors don't guarantee any data integrity with or without this patch, but with the patch we at least provide data ordering.

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.

Rusty, commit 3ca4f5ca 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.

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.

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.

Many of them ensure that the request actually completes by doing BUG_ON() the return value, which is awkward and error-prone.

To keep the size of changesets sane we split the switch by drivers; to keep the damn thing bisectable we do the following: 1) rename the affected methods, add ones with correct prototypes, make (few) callers handle both. That's this changeset. 2) for each driver convert to new methods. *ALL* drivers are converted in this series. 3) kill the old (renamed) methods. Note that it _is_ a flagday; all in-tree drivers are converted and by the end of this series no trace of old methods remain. The only reason why we do that this way is to keep the damn thing bisectable and allow per-driver debugging if anything goes wrong. New methods: open(bdev, mode) release(disk, mode) ioctl(bdev, mode, cmd, arg) /* Called without BKL */ compat_ioctl(bdev, mode, cmd, arg) locked_ioctl(bdev, mode, cmd, arg) /* Called with BKL, legacy */ Signed-off-by: NAl Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
