      swim3: clean up request completion paths · 467ca759
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      swim3 curiously tries to update request parameters before calling
      __blk_end_request() when __blk_end_request() will do it anyway, and it
      updates request for partial completion manually instead of using
      blk_update_request().  Also, it does some spurious checks on rq such
      as testing whether rq->sector is negative or current_nr_sectors is
      zero right after fetching.
      
      Drop unnecessary stuff and use standard block layer mechanisms.

      block: replace end_request() with [__]blk_end_request_cur() · f06d9a2b
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      end_request() has been kept around for backward compatibility;
      however, it's about time for it to go away.
      
      * There aren't too many users left.
      
      * Its use of @updtodate is pretty confusing.
      
      * In some cases, newer code ends up using mixture of end_request() and
        [__]blk_end_request[_all](), which is way too confusing.
      
      So, add [__]blk_end_request_cur() and replace end_request() with it.
      Most conversions are straightforward.  Noteworthy ones are...
      
      * paride/pcd: next_request() updated to take 0/-errno instead of 1/0.
      
      * paride/pf: pf_end_request() and next_request() updated to take
        0/-errno instead of 1/0.
      
      * xd: xd_readwrite() updated to return 0/-errno instead of 1/0.
      
      * mtd/mtd_blkdevs: blktrans_discard_request() updated to return
        0/-errno instead of 1/0.  Unnecessary local variable res
        initialization removed from mtd_blktrans_thread().

      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.

      [PATCH] Remove ->rq_status from struct request · cdd60262
      Jens Axboe 提交于
      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.

      Linux-2.6.12-rc2 · 1da177e4
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      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!
