      BUG: headers with BUG/BUG_ON etc. need linux/bug.h · 187f1882
      Paul Gortmaker 提交于
      If a header file is making use of BUG, BUG_ON, BUILD_BUG_ON, or any
      other BUG variant in a static inline (i.e. not in a #define) then
      that header really should be including <linux/bug.h> and not just
      expecting it to be implicitly present.
      
      We can make this change risk-free, since if the files using these
      headers didn't have exposure to linux/bug.h already, they would have
      been causing compile failures/warnings.

      block: Remove the control of complete cpu from bio. · 9562ad9a
      Tao Ma 提交于
      bio originally has the functionality to set the complete cpu, but
      it is broken.
      
      Chirstoph said that "This code is unused, and from the all the
      discussions lately pretty obviously broken.  The only thing keeping
      it serves is creating more confusion and possibly more bugs."
      
      And Jens replied with "We can kill bio_set_completion_cpu(). I'm fine
      with leaving cpu control to the request based drivers, they are the
      only ones that can toggle the setting anyway".
      
      So this patch tries to remove all the work of controling complete cpu
      from a bio.

      REQ_HARDBARRIER is dead now, so remove the leftovers.  What's left
      at this point is:
      
       - various checks inside the block layer.
       - sanity checks in bio based drivers.
       - now unused bio_empty_barrier helper.
       - Xen blockfront use of BLKIF_OP_WRITE_BARRIER - it's dead for a while,
         but Xen really needs to sort out it's barrier situaton.
       - setting of ordered tags in uas - dead code copied from old scsi
         drivers.
       - scsi different retry for barriers - it's dead and should have been
         removed when flushes were converted to FS requests.
       - blktrace handling of barriers - removed.  Someone who knows blktrace
         better should add support for REQ_FLUSH and REQ_FUA, though.

      block: introduce REQ_FLUSH flag · 8749534f
      FUJITA Tomonori 提交于
      SCSI-ml needs a way to mark a request as flush request in
      q->prepare_flush_fn because it needs to identify them later (e.g. in
      q->request_fn or prep_rq_fn).
      
      queue_flush sets REQ_HARDBARRIER in rq->cmd_flags however the block
      layer also sends normal REQ_TYPE_FS requests with REQ_HARDBARRIER. So
      SCSI-ml can't use REQ_HARDBARRIER to identify flush requests.
      
      We could change the block layer to clear REQ_HARDBARRIER bit before
      sending non flush requests to the lower layers. However, intorudcing
      the new flag looks cleaner (surely easier).

      Remove the current bio flags and reuse the request flags for the bio, too.

      missing in the requests:  BIO_RW_UNPLUG and BIO_RW_AHEAD.  Also I've
      renamed two request flags that had a superflous RW in them.

      block: add helpers to run flush_dcache_page() against a bio and a request's pages · 2d4dc890
      Ilya Loginov 提交于
      Mtdblock driver doesn't call flush_dcache_page for pages in request.  So,
      this causes problems on architectures where the icache doesn't fill from
      the dcache or with dcache aliases.  The patch fixes this.
      
      The ARCH_IMPLEMENTS_FLUSH_DCACHE_PAGE symbol was introduced to avoid
      pointless empty cache-thrashing loops on architectures for which
      flush_dcache_page() is a no-op.  Every architecture was provided with this
      flush pages on architectires where ARCH_IMPLEMENTS_FLUSH_DCACHE_PAGE is
      equal 1 or do nothing otherwise.

      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.

      bio: fix bio_kmalloc() · 451a9ebf
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Impact: fix bio_kmalloc() and its destruction path
      
      bio_kmalloc() was broken in two ways.
      
      * bvec_alloc_bs() first allocates bvec using kmalloc() and then
        ignores it and allocates again like non-kmalloc bvecs.
      
      * bio_kmalloc_destructor() didn't check for and free bio integrity
        data.
      
      This patch fixes the above problems.  kmalloc patch is separated out
      from bio_alloc_bioset() and allocates the requested number of bvecs as
      inline bvecs.
      
      * bio_alloc_bioset() no longer takes NULL @bs.  None other than
        bio_kmalloc() used it and outside users can't know how it was
        allocated anyway.
      
      * Define and use BIO_POOL_NONE so that pool index check in
        bvec_free_bs() triggers if inline or kmalloc allocated bvec gets
        there.
      
      * Relocate destructors on top of each allocation function so that how
        they're used is more clear.
      
      Jens Axboe suggested allocating bvecs inline.

      bio: add support for inlining a number of bio_vecs inside the bio · 392ddc32
      Jens Axboe 提交于
      When we go and allocate a bio for IO, we actually do two allocations.
      One for the bio itself, and one for the bi_io_vec that holds the
      actual pages we are interested in.
      
      This feature inlines a definable amount of io vecs inside the bio
      itself, so we eliminate the bio_vec array allocation for IO's up
      to a certain size. It defaults to 4 vecs, which is typically 16k
      of IO.

      Instead of having a global bio slab cache, add a reference to one

      This means we can personalize the bios we return. File systems may
      want to embed the bio inside another structure, to avoid allocation
      more items (and stuffing them in ->bi_private) after the get a bio.
      Or we may want to embed a number of bio_vecs directly at the end
      of a bio, to avoid doing two allocations to return a bio. This is now

      block: Supress Buffer I/O errors when SCSI REQ_QUIET flag set · 08bafc03
      Keith Mannthey 提交于
      Allow the scsi request REQ_QUIET flag to be propagated to the buffer
      file system layer. The basic ideas is to pass the flag from the scsi
      request to the bio (block IO) and then to the buffer layer.  The buffer
      layer can then suppress needless printks.
      
      This patch declutters the kernel log by removed the 40-50 (per lun)
      buffer io error messages seen during a boot in my multipath setup . It
      is a good chance any real errors will be missed in the "noise" it the
      logs without this patch.
      
      During boot I see blocks of messages like
      "

      in my logs.
      
      My disk environment is multipath fiber channel using the SCSI_DH_RDAC
      code and multipathd.  This topology includes an "active" and "ghost"
      path for each lun. IO's to the "ghost" path will never complete and the
      SCSI layer, via the scsi device handler rdac code, quick returns the IOs
      to theses paths and sets the REQ_QUIET scsi flag to suppress the scsi
      layer messages.
      
       I am wanting to extend the QUIET behavior to include the buffer file
      system layer to deal with these errors as well. I have been running this
      patch for a while now on several boxes without issue.  A few runs of
      bonnie++ show no noticeable difference in performance in my setup.
