Users with several network interfaces dedicated to AoE generally do not configure them to support different-sized AoE data payloads on purpose. For a given AoE target, there will be a set of local network interfaces that can reach it. Using only the payload that will fit in the smallest-sized MTU of all those local interfaces greatly simplifies the driver, especially in failure scenarios.

The dev_queue_xmit function needs to have interrupts enabled, so the most simple way to get the locking right but still fulfill that requirement is to use a process that can call dev_queue_xmit serially over queued transmissions.

To allow users to choose an elevator algorithm for their particular workloads, change from a make_request-style driver to an I/O-request-queue-handler-style driver. We have to do a couple of things that might be surprising. We manipulate the page _count directly on the assumption that we still have no guarantee that users of the block layer are prohibited from submitting bios containing pages with zero reference counts.[1] If such a prohibition now exists, I can get rid of the _count manipulation. Just as before this patch, we still keep track of the sk_buffs that the network layer still hasn't finished yet and cap the resources we use with a "pool" of skbs.[2] Now that the block layer maintains the disk stats, the aoe driver's diskstats function can go away. 1. https://lkml.org/lkml/2007/3/1/374 2. https://lkml.org/lkml/2007/7/6/241Signed-off-by: NEd Cashin <ecashin@coraid.com> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Make the frames the aoe driver uses to track the relationship between bios and packets more flexible and detached, so that they can be passed to an "aoe_ktio" thread for completion of I/O. The frames are handled much like skbs, with a capped amount of preallocation so that real-world use cases are likely to run smoothly and degenerate gracefully even under memory pressure. Decoupling I/O completion from the receive path and serializing it in a process makes it easier to think about the correctness of the locking in the driver, especially in the case of a remote MAC address becoming unusable.

tAdd adds the ability to work with large packets composed of a number of segments, using the scatter gather feature of the block layer (biovecs) and the network layer (skb frag array). The motivation is the performance gained by using a packet data payload greater than a page size and by using the network card's scatter gather feature. Users of the out-of-tree aoe driver already had these changes, but since early 2011, they have complained of increased memory utilization and higher CPU utilization during heavy writes.[1] The commit below appears related, as it disables scatter gather on non-IP protocols inside the harmonize_features function, even when the NIC supports sg. commit f01a5236 Author: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com> Date: Sun Jan 9 06:23:31 2011 +0000 net offloading: Generalize netif_get_vlan_features(). With that regression in place, transmits always linearize sg AoE packets, but in-kernel users did not have this patch. Before 2.6.38, though, these changes were working to allow sg to increase performance. 1. http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mm/msg15184.htmlSigned-off-by: NEd Cashin <ecashin@coraid.com> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Add discard support to nbd. If the nbd-server supports discard, it will send NBD_FLAG_SEND_TRIM to the client. The client will then set the flag in the kernel via NBD_SET_FLAGS, which tells the kernel to enable discards for the device (QUEUE_FLAG_DISCARD). If discard support is enabled, then when the nbd client system receives a discard request, this will be passed along to the nbd-server. When the discard request is received by the nbd-server, it will perform: fallocate(.. FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE ..) To punch a hole in the backend storage, which is no longer needed.

Add a set-flags ioctl, allowing various option flags to be set on an nbd device. This allows the nbd-client to set the device flags (to enable read-only mode, or enable discard support, etc.). Flags are typically specified by the nbd-server. During the negotiation phase of the nbd connection, the server sends its flags to the client. The client then uses NBD_SET_FLAGS to inform the kernel of the options. Also included is a one-line fix to debug output for the set-timeout ioctl.

The following set of patches provides modifications targeting support of multiple RapidIO master port (mport) devices on a CPU-side of RapidIO-capable board. While the RapidIO subsystem code has definitions suitable for multi-controller/multi-net support, the existing implementation cannot be considered ready for multiple mport configurations. =========== NOTES: ============= a) The patches below do not address RapidIO side view of multiport processing elements defined in Part 6 of RapidIO spec Rev.2.1 (section 6.4.1). These devices have Base Device ID CSR (0x60) and Component Tag CSR (0x6C) shared by all SRIO ports. For example, Freescale's P4080, P3041 and P5020 have a dual-port SRIO controller implemented according the specification. Enumeration/discovery of such devices from RapidIO side may require device-specific fixups. b) Devices referenced above may also require implementation specific code to setup a host device ID for mport device. These operations are not addressed by patches in this package. ================================= Details about provided patches: 1. Fix blocking wait for discovery ready While it does not happen on PowerPC based platforms, there is possibility of stalled CPU warning dump on x86 based platforms that run RapidIO discovery process if they wait too long for being enumerated. Currently users can avoid it by disabling the soft-lockup detector using "nosoftlockup" kernel parameter OR by ensuring that enumeration is completed before soft-lockup is detected. This patch eliminates blocking wait and keeps a scheduler running. It also is required for patch 3 below which introduces asynchronous discovery process. 2. Use device lists handling on per-net basis This patch allows to correctly support multiple RapidIO nets and resolves possible issues caused by using single global list of devices during RapidIO system enumeration/discovery. The most common sign of existing issue is incorrect contents of switch routing tables in systems with multiple mport controllers while single-port configuration performs as expected. The patch does not eliminate the global RapidIO device list but changes some routines in enumeration/discovery to use per-net device lists instead. This way compatibility with upper layer RIO routines is preserved. 3. Run discovery as an asynchronous process This patch modifies RapidIO initialization routine to asynchronously run the discovery process for each corresponding mport. This allows having an arbitrary order of enumerating and discovering mports without creating a deadlock situation if an enumerator port was registered after a discovering one. On boards with multiple discovering mports it also eliminates order dependency between mports and may reduce total time of RapidIO subsystem initialization. Making netID matching to mportID ensures consistent netID assignment in multiport RapidIO systems with asynchronous discovery process (global counter implementation is affected by race between threads). 4. Rework RIONET to support multiple RIO master ports In the current version of the driver rionet_probe() has comment "XXX Make multi-net safe". Now it is a good time to address this comment. This patch makes RIONET driver multi-net safe/capable by introducing per-net lists of RapidIO network peers. It also enables to register network adapters for all available mport devices. 5. Add destination ID allocation mechanism The patch replaces a single global destination ID counter with per-net allocation mechanism to allow independent destID management for each available RapidIO network. Using bitmap based mechanism instead of counters allows destination ID release and reuse in systems that support hot-swap. This patch: Fix blocking wait loop in the RapidIO discovery routine to avoid warning dumps about stalled CPU on x86 platforms.

Apply port RX/TX enable operations only to active switch ports. RapidIO specification (Part 6: LP-Serial Physical Layer) recommends to keep Output Port Enable (TX) and Input Port Enable (RX) control bits in disabled state (0b0) after device reset. It also allows to have implementation specific reset state for these bits. This patch ensures that TX/RX enable action is applied only to active switch's ports while preserving an initial state of inactive ones. This patch is intended to keep inactive switch ports with inbound and outbound packet transfers disabled to block unexpected packets during hot insertion event. While it does not fix any visible malfunction it is intended to prevent such events in future.

The original model of device_cgroup is having a whitelist where all the allowed devices are listed. The problem with this approach is that is impossible to have the case of allowing everything but few devices. The reason for that lies in the way the whitelist is handled internally: since there's only a whitelist, the "all devices" entry would have to be removed and replaced by the entire list of possible devices but the ones that are being denied. Since dev_t is 32 bits long, representing the allowed devices as a bitfield is not memory efficient. This patch replaces the "whitelist" by a "exceptions" list and the default policy is kept as "deny_all" variable in dev_cgroup structure. The current interface determines that whenever "a" is written to devices.allow or devices.deny, the entry masking all devices will be added or removed, respectively. This behavior is kept and it's what will determine the default policy: # cat devices.list a *:* rwm # echo a >devices.deny # cat devices.list # echo a >devices.allow # cat devices.list a *:* rwm The interface is also preserved.

deny_all will determine if the default policy is to deny all device access unless for the ones in the exception list. This variable will be used in the next patches to convert device_cgroup internally into a default policy + rules.

A section with the name "Example" (case-insensitive) has a special meaning to kernel-doc. These sections are output using mono-type fonts. However, leading whitespace is stripped, thus robbing a lot of meaning from this, as indented code examples will be mangled. This patch preserves the leading whitespace for "Example" sections. More accurately, it preserves it for all sections, but removes it later if the section isn't an "Example" section.

If you have a section named "Example" that contains an empty line, attempting to generate htmldocs give you the error: /path/Documentation/DocBook/kernel-api.xml:3455: parser error : Opening and ending tag mismatch: programlisting line 3449 and para </para><para> ^ /path/Documentation/DocBook/kernel-api.xml:3473: parser error : Opening and ending tag mismatch: para line 3467 and programlisting </programlisting></informalexample> ^ /path/Documentation/DocBook/kernel-api.xml:3678: parser error : Opening and ending tag mismatch: programlisting line 3672 and para </para><para> ^ /path/Documentation/DocBook/kernel-api.xml:3701: parser error : Opening and ending tag mismatch: para line 3690 and programlisting </programlisting></informalexample> ^ unable to parse /path/Documentation/DocBook/kernel-api.xml Essentially, the script attempts to close a <programlisting> with a closing tag for a <para> block. This patch corrects the problem by simply not outputting anything extra when we're dumping pre-formatted text, since the empty line will be rendered correctly anyway.

Prior to this patch the following code breaks: /** * multiline_example - this breaks kernel-doc */ #define multiline_example( \ myparam) Producing this error: Error(somefile.h:983): cannot understand prototype: 'multiline_example( \ ' This patch fixes the issue by appending all lines ending in a blackslash (optionally followed by whitespace), removing the backslash and any whitespace after it prior to appending (just like the C pre-processor would). This fixes a break in kerel-doc introduced by the additions to rbtree.h.
