      block: add request->raw_data_len · 6b00769f
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      With padding and draining moved into it, block layer now may extend
      requests as directed by queue parameters, so now a request has two
      sizes - the original request size and the extended size which matches
      the size of area pointed to by bios and later by sgs.  The latter size
      is what lower layers are primarily interested in when allocating,
      filling up DMA tables and setting up the controller.
      
      Both padding and draining extend the data area to accomodate
      controller characteristics.  As any controller which speaks SCSI can
      handle underflows, feeding larger data area is safe.
      
      So, this patch makes the primary data length field, request->data_len,
      indicate the size of full data area and add a separate length field,
      request->raw_data_len, for the unmodified request size.  The latter is
      used to report to higher layer (userland) and where the original
      request size should be fed to the controller or device.

      block: implement drain buffers · fa0ccd83
      James Bottomley 提交于
      These DMA drain buffer implementations in drivers are pretty horrible
      to do in terms of manipulating the scatterlist.  Plus they're being
      done at least in drivers/ide and drivers/ata, so we now have code
      duplication.
      
      The one use case for this, as I understand it is AHCI controllers doing
      PIO mode to mmc devices but translating this to DMA at the controller
      level.
      
      So, what about adding a callback to the block layer that permits the
      adding of the drain buffer for the problem devices.  The idea is that
      you'd do this in slave_configure after you find one of these devices.
      
      The beauty of doing it in the block layer is that it quietly adds the
      drain buffer to the end of the sg list, so it automatically gets mapped
      (and unmapped) without anything unusual having to be done to the
      scatterlist in driver/scsi or drivers/ata and without any alteration to
      the transfer length.

      block: cfq: make the io contect sharing lockless · 4ac845a2
      Jens Axboe 提交于
      The io context sharing introduced a per-ioc spinlock, that would protect
      the cfq io context lookup. That is a regression from the original, since
      we never needed any locking there because the ioc/cic were process private.
      
      The cic lookup is changed from an rbtree construct to a radix tree, which
      we can then use RCU to make the reader side lockless. That is the performance
      critical path, modifying the radix tree is only done on process creation
      (when that process first does IO, actually) and on process exit (if that
      process has done IO).
      
      As it so happens, radix trees are also much faster for this type of
      lookup where the key is a pointer. It's a very sparse tree.

      blk_end_request: add bidi completion interface (take 4) · e3a04fe3
      Kiyoshi Ueda 提交于
      This patch adds a variant of the interface, blk_end_bidi_request(),
      which completes a bidi request.
      
      Bidi request must be completed as a whole, both rq and rq->next_rq
      at once.  So the interface has 2 arguments for completion size.
      
      As for ->end_io, only rq->end_io is called (rq->next_rq->end_io is not
      called).  So if special completion handling is needed, the handler
      must be set to rq->end_io.
      And the handler must take care of freeing next_rq too, since
      the interface doesn't care of it if rq->end_io is not NULL.

      blk_end_request: add callback feature (take 4) · e19a3ab0
      Kiyoshi Ueda 提交于
      This patch adds a variant of the interface, blk_end_request_callback(),
      which has driver callback feature.
      
      Drivers may need to do special works between end_that_request_first()
      and end_that_request_last().
      For such drivers, blk_end_request_callback() allows it to pass
      a callback function which is called between end_that_request_first()
      and end_that_request_last().
      
      This interface is only for fallback of other blk_end_request interfaces.
      Drivers should avoid their tricky behaviors and use other interfaces
      as much as possible.
      
      Currently, only one driver, ide-cd, needs this interface.
      So this interface should/will be removed, after the driver removes
      such tricky behaviors.
      
      o ide-cd (cdrom_newpc_intr())
        In PIO mode, cdrom_newpc_intr() needs to defer end_that_request_last()
        until the device clears DRQ_STAT and raises an interrupt after
        end_that_request_first().
        So end_that_request_first() and end_that_request_last() are called
        separately in cdrom_newpc_intr().
      
        This means blk_end_request_callback() has to return without
        completing request even if no leftover in the request.
        To satisfy the requirement, callback function has return value
        so that drivers can tell blk_end_request_callback() to return
        without completing request.

      blk_end_request: changing block layer core (take 4) · 9e6e39f2
      Kiyoshi Ueda 提交于
      This patch converts core parts of block layer to use blk_end_request
      interfaces.  Related 'uptodate' arguments are converted to 'error'.
      
      'dequeue' argument was originally introduced for end_dequeued_request(),
      where no attempt should be made to dequeue the request as it's already
      dequeued.
      However, it's not necessary as it can be checked with
      list_empty(&rq->queuelist).
      (Dequeued request has empty list and queued request doesn't.)
      And it has been done in blk_end_request interfaces.
      
      As a result of this patch, end_queued_request() and
      end_dequeued_request() become identical.  A future patch will merge
      and rename them and change users of those functions.

      blk_end_request: add new request completion interface (take 4) · 336cdb40
      Kiyoshi Ueda 提交于
      This patch adds 2 new interfaces for request completion:
        o blk_end_request()   : called without queue lock
        o __blk_end_request() : called with queue lock held
      
      blk_end_request takes 'error' as an argument instead of 'uptodate',
      which current end_that_request_* take.
      The meanings of values are below and the value is used when bio is
      completed.
          0 : success
        < 0 : error
      
      Some device drivers call some generic functions below between
      end_that_request_{first/chunk} and end_that_request_last().
        o add_disk_randomness()
        o blk_queue_end_tag()
        o blkdev_dequeue_request()
      These are called in the blk_end_request interfaces as a part of
      generic request completion.
      So all device drivers become to call above functions.
      To decide whether to call blkdev_dequeue_request(), blk_end_request
      uses list_empty(&rq->queuelist) (blk_queued_rq() macro is added for it).
      So drivers must re-initialize it using list_init() or so before calling
      blk_end_request if drivers use it for its specific purpose.
      (Currently, there is no driver which completes request without
       re-initializing the queuelist after used it.  So rq->queuelist
       can be used for the purpose above.)
      
      "Normal" drivers can be converted to use blk_end_request()
      in a standard way shown below.
      
       a) end_that_request_{chunk/first}
          spin_lock_irqsave()
          (add_disk_randomness(), blk_queue_end_tag(), blkdev_dequeue_request())
          end_that_request_last()
          spin_unlock_irqrestore()
          => blk_end_request()
      
       b) spin_lock_irqsave()
          end_that_request_{chunk/first}
          (add_disk_randomness(), blk_queue_end_tag(), blkdev_dequeue_request())
          end_that_request_last()
          spin_unlock_irqrestore()
          => spin_lock_irqsave()
             __blk_end_request()
             spin_unlock_irqsave()
      
       c) spin_lock_irqsave()
