d805dda4 tried to fix error case handling in add_partition() but had a few problems. * disk->part[] entry is set early and left dangling if operation fails. * Once device initialized, the last put_device() is responsible for freeing all the resources. The failure path freed part_stats and p regardless of put_device() causing double free. * holders subdir holds reference to the disk device, so failure path should remove it to release resources properly which was missing. This patch fixes the above problems and while at it move partition slot busy check into add_partition() for completeness and inlines holders subdirectory creation. Using separate function for it just obfuscates the code. Signed-off-by: NTejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Abdel Benamrouche <draconux@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NJens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

delete_partition() was noop for zero length partition. As the addition code allows creating zero lenght partition and deletion is assumed to always succeed, this causes memory leak for zero length partitions. Allow zero length partitions to end their meaningless lives. While at it, allow deleting zero lenght partition via BLKPG_DEL_PARTITION ioctl too.

Recent block_class iteration updates 5c6f35c5..27f30251 converted all class device iteration to class_for_each_device() and class_find_device(), which are correct but pain in the ass to use. This pach converts them to newly introduced class_dev_iterator so that they can use more natural control structures instead of separate callbacks and struct to pass parameters to them. This results in smaller and easier code. This patch also restores the original behavior of not printing header in /proc/partitions if there's no partition to print. This is trivial but still user-visible behavior. Signed-off-by: NTejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de> Signed-off-by: NJens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

Recent block_class iteration updates 5c6f35c5..27f30251 broke partition info printouts. * printk_all_partitions(): Partition print out stops when it meets a partition hole. Partition printing inner loop should continue instead of exiting on empty partition slot. * /proc/partitions and /proc/diskstats: If all information can't be read in single read(), the information is truncated. This is because find_start() doesn't actually update the counter containing the initial seek. It runs to the end and ends up always reporting EOF on the second read. This patch fixes both problems.

Iterating over entries using callback usually isn't too fun especially when the entry being iterated over can't be manipulated freely. This patch converts class->p->class_devices to klist and implements class device iterator so that the users can freely build their own control structure. The users are also free to call back into class code without worrying about locking. class_for_each_device() and class_find_device() are converted to use the new iterators, so their users don't have to worry about locking anymore either. Note: This depends on klist-dont-iterate-over-deleted-entries patch because class_intf->add/remove_dev() depends on proper synchronization with device removal.

A klist entry is kept on the list till all its current iterations are finished; however, a new iteration after deletion also iterates over deleted entries as long as their reference count stays above zero. This causes problems for cases where there are users which iterate over the list while synchronized against list manipulations and natuarally expect already deleted entries to not show up during iteration. This patch implements dead flag which gets set on deletion so that iteration can skip already deleted entries. The dead flag piggy backs on the lowest bit of knode->n_klist and only visible to klist implementation proper. While at it, drop klist_iter->i_head as it's redundant and doesn't offer anything in semantics or performance wise as klist_iter->i_klist is dereferenced on every iteration anyway.

Deadline currently only batches sector-contiguous requests, so except for a few circumstances (e.g. requests in a single direction), it is essentially first come first served. This is bad for throughput, so change it to CSCAN, which means requests in a batch do not need to be sequential and are issued in increasing sector order.

struct request has an ioprio member but it is never updated because currently bios do not hold io context information. The implication of this is that virtio_blk ends up passing useless information to the backend driver. That said, some IO schedulers such as CFQ do store io context information in struct request, but use private members for that, which means that that information cannot be directly accessed in a IO scheduler-independent way. This patch adds a function to obtain the ioprio of a request. We should avoid accessing ioprio directly and use this function instead, so that its users do not have to care about future changes in block layer structures or what the currently active IO controller is. This patch does not introduce any functional changes but paves the way for future clean-ups and enhancements.

But blkdev_issue_discard() still emits requests which are interpreted as soft barriers, because naïve callers might otherwise issue subsequent writes to those same sectors, which might cross on the queue (if they're reallocated quickly enough). Callers still _can_ issue non-barrier discard requests, but they have to take care of queue ordering for themselves.

We may well want mkfs tools to use this to mark the whole device as unwanted before they format it, for example. The ioctl takes a pair of uint64_ts, which are start offset and length in _bytes_. Although at the moment it might make sense for them both to be in 512-byte sectors, I don't want to limit the ABI to that.

Some block devices benefit from a hint that they can forget the contents of certain sectors. Add basic support for this to the block core, along with a 'blkdev_issue_discard()' helper function which issues such requests. The caller doesn't get to provide an end_io functio, since blkdev_issue_discard() will automatically split the request up into multiple bios if appropriate. Neither does the function wait for completion -- it's expected that callers won't care about when, or even _if_, the request completes. It's only a hint to the device anyway. By definition, the file system doesn't _care_ about these sectors any more.

I have another request for the block filter SG_IO command whitelist, specifically the MMC streaming command set SET READ AHEAD command. The command applies only to MMC CDROM/DVDROM drives with the streaming optional feature set. The command is useful to cdparanoia in that it allows explicit cache control side effects that are, on many drives, cdparanoia's most efficient way to flush/disable the media cache on cdrom drives. I am aware of no reason why it should not be accessible from usespace. Also note that the command is already fully accessible through the SCSI-native version of the SG_IO ioctl as well as the traditional SG interface. The command is only being refused on block devices. That means that on a typical stock distro, the command is available through /dev/sg* but not /dev/scd* although both are typically available and accessible. Filtering the command is not providing any protection, only a confusing inconsistency. Signed-off-by: NJens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

Benjamin Thery tracked down a bug that explains many instances of the error unregister_netdevice: waiting for %s to become free. Usage count = %d It turns out that netdev_run_todo can dead-lock with itself if a second instance of it is run in a thread that will then free a reference to the device waited on by the first instance. The problem is really quite silly. We were trying to create parallelism where none was required. As netdev_run_todo always follows a RTNL section, and that todo tasks can only be added with the RTNL held, by definition you should only need to wait for the very ones that you've added and be done with it. There is no need for a second mutex or spinlock. This is exactly what the following patch does. Signed-off-by: NHerbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

From: Ali Saidi <saidi@engin.umich.edu> When TCP receive copy offload is enabled it's possible that tcp_rcv_established() will cause two acks to be sent for a single packet. In the case that a tcp_dma_early_copy() is successful, copied_early is set to true which causes tcp_cleanup_rbuf() to be called early which can send an ack. Further along in tcp_rcv_established(), __tcp_ack_snd_check() is called and will schedule a delayed ACK. If no packets are processed before the delayed ack timer expires the packet will be acked twice. Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Jesper Dangaard Brouer <hawk@comx.dk> reported a bug when setting a VLAN device down that is in promiscous mode: When the VLAN device is set down, the promiscous count on the real device is decremented by one by vlan_dev_stop(). When removing the promiscous flag from the VLAN device afterwards, the promiscous count on the real device is decremented a second time by the vlan_change_rx_flags() callback. The root cause for this is that the ->change_rx_flags() callback is invoked while the device is down. The synchronization is meant to mirror the behaviour of the ->set_rx_mode callbacks, meaning the ->open function is responsible for doing a full sync on open, the ->close() function is responsible for doing full cleanup on ->stop() and ->change_rx_flags() is meant to do incremental changes while the device is UP. Only invoke ->change_rx_flags() while the device is UP to provide the intended behaviour.
