      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.

      virtio: let header files include virtio_ids.h · e95646c3
      Christian Borntraeger 提交于
      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.

      virtio_blk: revert QUEUE_FLAG_VIRT addition · f8b12e51
      Christoph Hellwig 提交于
      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.

      virtio_blk: mark virtio_blk with __refdata to kill spurious section mismatch · 4fbfff76

      The variable virtio_blk references the function virtblk_probe() (which
      is in .devinit section) and also references the function
      virtblk_remove() ( which is in .devexit section). So, virtio_blk

      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.

      [PATCH] beginning of methods conversion · d4430d62
      Al Viro 提交于
      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 */
