      mmc_block: fix queue cleanup · 5fa83ce2
      Adrian Hunter 提交于
      The main bug was that 'blk_cleanup_queue()' was called while the block
      device could still be in use, for example, because the card was removed
      while files were still open.
      
      In addition, to be sure that 'mmc_request()' will get called for all new
      requests (so it can error them out), the queue is emptied during cleanup.
      This is done after the worker thread is stopped to avoid racing with it.
      
      Finally, it is not a device error for this to be happening, so quiet the
      (sometimes very many) error messages.

      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.

      block: convert to dequeueing model (easy ones) · 296b2f6a
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      plat-omap/mailbox, floppy, viocd, mspro_block, i2o_block and
      mmc/card/queue are already pretty close to dequeueing model and can be
      converted with simple changes.  Convert them.
      
      While at it,
      
      * xen-blkfront: !fs check moved downwards to share dequeue call with
        normal path.
      
      * mspro_block: __blk_end_request(..., blk_rq_cur_byte()) converted to
        __blk_end_request_cur()

      Freezer: make kernel threads nonfreezable by default · 83144186
      Rafael J. Wysocki 提交于
      Currently, the freezer treats all tasks as freezable, except for the kernel
      threads that explicitly set the PF_NOFREEZE flag for themselves.  This
      approach is problematic, since it requires every kernel thread to either
      set PF_NOFREEZE explicitly, or call try_to_freeze(), even if it doesn't
      care for the freezing of tasks at all.
      
      It seems better to only require the kernel threads that want to or need to
      be frozen to use some freezer-related code and to remove any
      freezer-related code from the other (nonfreezable) kernel threads, which is
      done in this patch.
      
      The patch causes all kernel threads to be nonfreezable by default (ie.  to
      have PF_NOFREEZE set by default) and introduces the set_freezable()
      function that should be called by the freezable kernel threads in order to
      unset PF_NOFREEZE.  It also makes all of the currently freezable kernel
      threads call set_freezable(), so it shouldn't cause any (intentional)
      change of behaviour to appear.  Additionally, it updates documentation to
      describe the freezing of tasks more accurately.

      mmc: Allow host drivers to specify max block count · 55db890a
      Pierre Ossman 提交于
      Many controllers have an upper limit on the number of blocks that can be
      transferred in one request. Allow the host drivers to specify this and make
      sure we avoid hitting this limit.
      
      Also change the max_sectors field to avoid confusion. This makes it map
      less directly to the block layer limits, but as they didn't apply directly
      on MMC cards anyway, this isn't a great loss.

      [PATCH] Split struct request ->flags into two parts · 4aff5e23
      Jens Axboe 提交于
      Right now ->flags is a bit of a mess: some are request types, and
      others are just modifiers. Clean this up by splitting it into
      ->cmd_type and ->cmd_flags. This allows introduction of generic
      Linux block message types, useful for sending generic Linux commands
      to block devices.

      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
      even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
      archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
      3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
      git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
      infrastructure for it.
      
      Let it rip!
