      [SCSI] Let scsi_cmnd->cmnd use request->cmd buffer · 64a87b24
      Boaz Harrosh 提交于
       - struct scsi_cmnd had a 16 bytes command buffer of its own.
         This is an unnecessary duplication and copy of request's
         cmd. It is probably left overs from the time that scsi_cmnd
         could function without a request attached. So clean that up.
      
       - Once above is done, few places, apart from scsi-ml, needed
         adjustments due to changing the data type of scsi_cmnd->cmnd.
      
       - Lots of drivers still use MAX_COMMAND_SIZE. So I have left
         that #define but equate it to BLK_MAX_CDB. The way I see it
         and is reflected in the patch below is.
         MAX_COMMAND_SIZE - means: The longest fixed-length (*) SCSI CDB
                            as per the SCSI standard and is not related
                            to the implementation.
         BLK_MAX_CDB.     - The allocated space at the request level
      
       - I have audit all ISA drivers and made sure none use ->cmnd in a DMA
         Operation. Same audit was done by Andi Kleen.
      
      (*)fixed-length here means commands that their size can be determined
         by their opcode and the CDB does not carry a length specifier, (unlike
         the VARIABLE_LENGTH_CMD(0x7f) command). This is actually not exactly
         true and the SCSI standard also defines extended commands and
         vendor specific commands that can be bigger than 16 bytes. The kernel
         will support these using the same infrastructure used for VARLEN CDB's.
         So in effect MAX_COMMAND_SIZE means the maximum size command
         scsi-ml supports without specifying a cmd_len by ULD's

      [SCSI] remove use_sg_chaining · d3f46f39
      James Bottomley 提交于
      With the sg table code, every SCSI driver is now either chain capable
      or broken (or has sg_tablesize set so chaining is never activated), so
      there's no need to have a check in the host template.
      
      Also tidy up the code by moving the scatterlist size defines into the
      SCSI includes and permit the last entry of the scatterlist pools not
      to be a power of two.

      [PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.h · cd354f1a
      Tim Schmielau 提交于
      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).

      IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlers · 7d12e780
      David Howells 提交于
      Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
      of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
      Linux kernel.
      
      The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
      space and code to pass it around.  On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
      from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
      (ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).
      
      Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
      something different with the variable.  On FRV, for instance, the address is
      maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
      handling.
      
      Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
      through up to twenty or so layers of functions.  Consider a USB character
      device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
      interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller.  A character
      device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
      layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.
      
      I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386.  I've runtested the
      main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
      I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
      with minimal configurations.
      
      This will affect all archs.  Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
      Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:
      
      	struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);
      
      And put the old one back at the end:
      
      	set_irq_regs(old_regs);
      
      Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().
      
      In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:
      
      	-	update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
      	-	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
      	+	update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
      	+	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);
      
      I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
      except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().
      
      Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:
      
       (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely.  The regs pointer is no longer stored in
           the input_dev struct.
      
       (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking.  It does
           something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
           pointer or not.
      
       (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
           irq_handler_t.
