do_ubd is actually just a boolean variable - the way it is used currently is a leftover from the old 2.4 block layer, but it is still used; its use is suspicious, but removing it would be too intrusive for now and needs more thinking.

Add some comments about requirements for ubd_io_lock and expand its use. When an irq signals that the "controller" (i.e. another thread on the host, which does the actual requests and is the only one blocked on I/O on the host) has done some work, we call again the request function ourselves (do_ubd_request). We now do that with ubd_io_lock held - that's useful to protect against concurrent calls to elv_next_request and so on. XXX: Maybe we shouldn't call at all the request function. Input needed on this. Are we supposed to plug and unplug the queue? That code "indirectly" does that by setting a flag, called do_ubd, which makes the request function return (it's a residual of 2.4 block layer interface). Meanwhile, however, merge this patch, which improves things.

This lock protects ubd setup and teardown, so is only used in process context; beyond that, during such setup memory allocations must be performed and some generic functions which can sleep must be called (such as add_disk()). So the only correct solution is to make it a mutex instead of a spin_lock. No other change is done - this lock must be acquired in different places but it's done afterwards.

To rethink locking, I needed to understand well what each function does. While doing this I renamed some: * ubd_close -> ubd_close_dev (since it pairs with ubd_open_dev) * ubd_new_disk -> ubd_disk_register (it handles registration with the block layer - one hopes this makes clearer the difference with ubd_add()) Signed-off-by: NPaolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso <blaisorblade@yahoo.it> Cc: Jeff Dike <jdike@addtoit.com> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

Rename the ubd_dev array to ubd_devs and then call any "struct ubd" ubd_dev instead of dev, which doesn't make clear what we're treating (and no, it's not hungarian notation - not any more than calling all vm_area_struct vma or all inodes inode).

After Christophs SCSI change, the only usage left is RQ_ACTIVE and RQ_INACTIVE. The block layer sets RQ_INACTIVE right before freeing the request, so any check for RQ_INACTIVE in a driver is a bug and indicates use-after-free. So kill/clean the remaining users, straight forward.

When the user specifies both a COW file and its backing file, if the previous backing file is not found, currently UML tries again to use it and fails. This can be corrected by changing same_backing_files() return value in that case, so that the caller will try to change the COW file to point to the new location, as already done in other cases. Additionally, given the change in the meaning of the func, change its name, invert its return value, so all values are inverted except when stat(from_cow,&buf2) fails. And add some comments and two minor bugfixes - remove a fd leak (return err rather than goto out) and a repeated check. Tested well.

HDIO_GETGEO is implemented in most block drivers, and all of them have to duplicate the code to copy the structure to userspace, as well as getting the start sector. This patch moves that to common code [1] and adds a ->getgeo method to fill out the raw kernel hd_geometry structure. For many drivers this means ->ioctl can go away now. [1] the s390 block drivers are odd in this respect. xpram sets ->start to 4 always which seems more than odd, and the dasd driver shifts the start offset around, probably because of it's non-standard sector size.

The patch to use host AIO support that I submitted early after 2.6.13 exposed some problems in the block driver. I have fixes for these, but am not comfortable putting them into 2.6.14 at this late date. So, this patch reverts the use of host AIO. I will resubmit the original patch, plus fixes to the driver after 2.6.14 in order to get a reasonable amount of testing before they're exposed to the general public.

This adds AIO support to the ubd driver. The driver breaks a struct request into IO requests to the host, based on the hardware segments in the request and on any COW blocks covered by the request. The ubd IO thread is gone, since there is now an equivalent thread in the AIO module. There is provision for multiple outstanding requests now. Requests aren't retired until all pieces of it have been completed. The AIO requests have a shared count, which is decremented as IO operations come in until it reaches 0. This can be possibly moved to the request struct - haven't looked at this yet.

Use the set_disk_ro() API when the backing file is read-only, to mark the disk read-only, during the ->open(). The current hack does not work when doing a mount -o remount. Also, mark explicitly the code paths which should no more be triggerable (I've removed the WARN_ON(1) things). They should actually become BUG()s probably but I'll avoid that since I'm not so sure the change works so well. I gave it only some limited testing.

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!
