... doh Jeremy Fitzhardinge noted that the recent loop.c cleanups worked, but cause lockdep to complain. Ouch. OK, the deadlock is real and yes, I'm an idiot. Speaking of which, we probably want to s/lock/pin/ in drivers/base/map.c to avoid such brainos again. And yes, this stuff needs clear documentation. Will try to put one together once I get some sleep...

It's very common for file systems to need to zero part or all of a page, the simplist way is just to use kmap_atomic() and memset(). There's actually a library function in include/linux/highmem.h that does exactly that, but it's confusingly named memclear_highpage_flush(), which is descriptive of *how* it does the work rather than what the *purpose* is. So this patchset renames the function to zero_user_page(), and calls it from the various places that currently open code it. This first patch introduces the new function call, and converts all the core kernel callsites, both the open-coded ones and the old memclear_highpage_flush() ones. Following this patch is a series of conversions for each file system individually, per AKPM, and finally a patch deprecating the old call. The diffstat below shows the entire patchset.

Set rq->errors more correctly in cciss driver. Previously we had set it synonymously with the meaning of the last parameter of end_that_last_request and complete_buffers (the "uptodate" parameter) and had gotten away with it for all this time because nobody ever looked at rq->errors.

For all of you that think cciss should be a scsi driver here is the patch that you have been waiting for all these years. This patch actually adds the SG_IO ioctl to cciss. The primary purpose is for clustering and high-availibilty. But now anyone can exploit this ioctl in any manner they wish. Note, SCSI_IOCTL_SEND_COMMAND doesn't work with this patch due to rq->errors being set incorrectly. Subsequent patch fixes that. Signed-off-by: NStephen M.

Remove artificial maximum 256 loop device that can be created due to a legacy device number limit. Searching through lkml archive, there are several instances where users complained about the artificial limit that the loop driver impose. There is no reason to have such limit. This patch rid the limit entirely and make loop device and associated block queue instantiation on demand. With on-demand instantiation, it also gives the benefit of not wasting memory if these devices are not in use (compare to current implementation that always create 8 loop devices), a net improvement in both areas. This version is both tested with creation of large number of loop devices and is compatible with existing losetup/mount user land tools.

This patch changes the way we determine if a logical volume is larger than 2TB. The original test looked for a total_size of 0. Originally we added 1 to the total_size. That would make our read_capacity return size 0 for >2TB lv's. We assumed that we could not have a lv size of 0 so it seemed OK until we were in a clustered system. The backup node would see a size of 0 due to the reservation on the drive. That caused the driver to switch to 16-byte CDB's which are not supported on older controllers. After that everything was broken. It may seem petty but I don't see the value in trying to determine if the LBA is beyond the 2TB boundary. That's why when we switch we use 16-byte CDB's for all read/write operations. Please consider this for inclusion.

After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes. There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need anything defined in there. Presumably these includes were once needed for macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the course of cleaning it up. To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble. Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha, arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig, allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all configs in arch/arm/configs on arm. I also checked that no new warnings were introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted by unnecessarily included header files).

The file init/initramfs.c is always compiled and linked in the kernel vmlinux even when BLK_DEV_RAM and BLK_DEV_INITRD are disabled and the system isn't using any form of an initramfs or initrd. In this situation the code is only used to unpack a (static) default initial rootfilesystem. The current init/initramfs.c code. usr/initramfs_data.o compiles to a size of ~15 kbytes. Disabling BLK_DEV_RAM and BLK_DEV_INTRD shrinks the kernel code size with ~60 Kbytes. This patch avoids compiling in the code and data for initramfs support if CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD is not defined. Instead of the initramfs code and data it uses a small routine in init/noinitramfs.c to setup an initial static default environment for mounting a rootfilesystem later on in the kernel initialisation process. The new code is: 164 bytes of size. The patch is separated in two parts: 1) doesn't compile initramfs code when CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD is not set 2) changing all plaforms vmlinux.lds.S files to not reserve an area of PAGE_SIZE when CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD is not set.
