      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.

      block: clean up request completion API · 2e60e022
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Request completion has gone through several changes and became a bit
      messy over the time.  Clean it up.
      
      1. end_that_request_data() is a thin wrapper around
         end_that_request_data_first() which checks whether bio is NULL
         before doing anything and handles bidi completion.
         blk_update_request() is a thin wrapper around
         end_that_request_data() which clears nr_sectors on the last
         iteration but doesn't use the bidi completion.
      
         Clean it up by moving the initial bio NULL check and nr_sectors
         clearing on the last iteration into end_that_request_data() and
         renaming it to blk_update_request(), which makes blk_end_io() the
         only user of end_that_request_data().  Collapse
         end_that_request_data() into blk_end_io().
      
      2. There are four visible completion variants - blk_end_request(),
         __blk_end_request(), blk_end_bidi_request() and end_request().
         blk_end_request() and blk_end_bidi_request() uses blk_end_request()
         as the backend but __blk_end_request() and end_request() use
         separate implementation in __blk_end_request() due to different
         locking rules.
      
         blk_end_bidi_request() is identical to blk_end_io().  Collapse
         blk_end_io() into blk_end_bidi_request(), separate out request
         update into internal helper blk_update_bidi_request() and add
         __blk_end_bidi_request().  Redefine [__]blk_end_request() as thin
         inline wrappers around [__]blk_end_bidi_request().
      
      3. As the whole request issue/completion usages are about to be
         modified and audited, it's a good chance to convert completion
         functions return bool which better indicates the intended meaning
         of return values.
      
      4. The function name end_that_request_last() is from the days when it
         was a public interface and slighly confusing.  Give it a proper
         internal name - blk_finish_request().
      
      5. Add description explaning that blk_end_bidi_request() can be safely
         used for uni requests as suggested by Boaz Harrosh.
      
      The only visible behavior change is from #1.  nr_sectors counts are
      cleared after the final iteration no matter which function is used to
      complete the request.  I couldn't find any place where the code
      assumes those nr_sectors counters contain the values for the last
      segment and this change is good as it makes the API much more
      consistent as the end result is now same whether a request is
      completed using [__]blk_end_request() alone or in combination with
      blk_update_request().
      
      API further cleaned up per Christoph's suggestion.

      Impact: code reorganization
      
      elv_next_request() and elv_dequeue_request() are public block layer
      interface than actual elevator implementation.  They mostly deal with
      how requests interact with block layer and low level drivers at the
      beginning of rqeuest processing whereas __elv_next_request() is the
      actual eleveator request fetching interface.
      
      Move the two functions to blk-core.c.  This prepares for further
      interface cleanup.

      Reorder request completion functions such that

      * Functions which are used by only one caller is put right above the

      __blk_run_queue wraps blk_invoke_request_fn() such that it
      additionally removes plug and bails out early if the queue is empty.
      Both extra operations have their own pending mechanisms and don't
      cause any harm correctness-wise when they are done superflously.
      
      The only user of blk_invoke_request_fn() being blk_start_queue(),
      there isn't much reason to keep both functions around.  Merge
      blk_invoke_request_fn() into __blk_run_queue() and make
      blk_start_queue() use __blk_run_queue() instead.

      block: enable by default support for large devices and files on 32-bit archs · db29a6b4
      Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz 提交于
      Enable by default support for large devices and files (CONFIG_LBD):
      
      - With 1TB disks being a commodity hardware it is quite easy to hit 2TB
        limitation while building RAIDs etc. and many distros have been using
        CONFIG_LBD=y by default already (at least Fedora 10 and openSUSE 11.1).
      
      - This should also prevent a subtle ext4 filesystem compatibility issue:
        mke2fs.ext4 defaults to creating filesystems with huge_files feature
        enabled and such filesystems cannot be later mounted read-write on
        machines with CONFIG_LBD=n (it should be quite easy to hit this issue
        when trying to use filesystem created using distro kernel on system
        running the self-build kernel, think about USB disk enclosures & co.).
      
      While at it:
      
      - Clarify config option help text w.r.t. mounting ext4 filesystems
        (they can be mounted with CONFIG_LBD=n but in the read-only mode).
