Currently only a device 'fdX' shows up in sysfs; the other possible
device for this drive (like fd0h1440 etc) must be guessed from there.

This patch corrects the floppy driver to create a platform device for
each floppy found; each platform device also has an attribute 'cmos'
which represents the cmos type for this drive. From this attribute the
other possible device types can be computed.

One critical fix and two minor fixes for 2.6.13-rc7:

- Max depth must currently be 2 to allow barriers to function on SCSI
- Prefer sync request over async in choosing the next request
- Never allow async request to preempt or disturb the "anticipation" for
  a single cfq process context. This is as-designed, the code right now
  is buggy in that area.

My patch in commit fa72b903 incorrectly
removed blk_queue_tag->real_max_depth.

The original resize implementation was incorrect in the following
points.

 * actual allocation size of tag_index was shorter than real_max_size,
   but assumed to be of the same size, possibly causing memory access
   beyond the allocated area.
 * bits in tag_map between max_deptn and real_max_depth were
   initialized to 1's, making the tags permanently reserved.

In an attempt to fix above two bugs, I had removed allocation optimization
in init_tag_map and real_max_size.  Tag map/index were allocated and freed
immediately during resize.

Unfortunately, I wasn't considering that tag map/index can be resized
dynamically with tags beyond new_depth active.  This led to accessing
freed area after shrinking tags and led to the following bug reporting
thread on linux-scsi.

   http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-scsi&m=112319898111885&w=2

To fix the problem, I've revived real_max_depth without allocation
optimization in init_tag_map, and Andrew Vasquez confirmed that the
problem was fixed.  As Jens is not going to be available for a week, he
asked me to make sure that this patch reaches you.

This patch adds per disk queue functionality to cciss.  Sometime back I
submitted a patch but it looks like only part of what I needed.  In the 2.6
kernel if we have more than one logical volume the driver will Oops during
rmmod.  It seems all of the queues actually point back to the same queue.
So after deleting the first volume you hit a null pointer on the second

In the case where the request is not able to be merged by the elevator, don't
retake the lock and retry the merge mechanism after allocating a new request.

Instead assume that the chance of a merge remains slim, and now that we've
done most of the work allocating a request we may as well just go with it.

Also be rid of the GFP_ATOMIC allocation: we've got working mempools for the
block layer now, so let's save atomic memory for things like networking.

Lastly, in get_request_wait, do an initial get_request call before going into
the waitqueue.  This is reported to help efficiency.

Currently we cap request allocations at q->nr_requests, but we allow a
batching io context to allocate up to 32 more (default setting).  This
can flood the queue with request allocations, with only a few batching
processes.  The real fix would be to limit the number of batchers, but
as that isn't currently tracked, I suggest we just cap the maximum
number of allocated requests to eg 50% over the limit.

This was observed in real life, users typically see this as vmstat bo
numbers going off the wall with seconds of no queueing afterwards.
Behaviour this bursty is not beneficial.

- Adjust slice values

- Instead of one async queue, one is defined per priority level. This
  prevents kernel threads (such as reiserfs/x and others) that run at
  higher io priority from conflicting with others. Previously, it was a
  coin toss what io prio the async queue got, it was defined by who
  first set up the queue.

- Let a time slice only begin, when the previous slice is completely
  done. Previously we could be somewhat unfair to a new sync slice, if
  the previous slice was async and had several ios queued. This might
  need a little tweaking if throughput suffers a little due to this,
  allowing perhaps an overlap of a single request or so.

- Optimize the calling of kblockd_schedule_work() by doing it only when
  it is strictly necessary (no requests in driver and work left to do).

- Correct sync vs async logic. A 'normal' process can be purely async as
  well, and a flusher can be purely sync as well. Sync or async is now a
  property of the class defined and requests pending. Previously writers
  could be considered sync, when they were really async.

- Get rid of the bit fields in cfqq and crq, use flags instead.

- Various other cleanups and fixes

In cfq_find_next_crq(), cfq tries to find the next request by choosing
one of two requests before and after the current one.  Currently, when
choosing the next request, if there's no next request, the next
candidate is NULL, resulting in selection of the previous request.  This
results in weird scheduling.  Once we reach the end, we always seek
backward.

The correct behavior is using the first request as the next candidate.
cfq_choose_req() already has logics for handling wrapped requests.

This updates the CFQ io scheduler to the new time sliced design (cfq
v3).  It provides full process fairness, while giving excellent
aggregate system throughput even for many competing processes.  It
supports io priorities, either inherited from the cpu nice value or set
directly with the ioprio_get/set syscalls.  The latter closely mimic
set/getpriority.

This import is based on my latest from -mm.

This patch allows block device drivers to convert their ioctl functions to
unlocked_ioctl() like character devices and other subsystems.  All
functions that were called with the BKL held before are still used that
way, but I would not be surprised if it could be removed from the ioctl

As a side note, I found that compat_blkdev_ioctl() acquires the BKL as
well, which looks like a bug.  I have checked that every user of
disk->fops->compat_ioctl() in the current git tree gets the BKL itself, so
it could easily be removed from compat_blkdev_ioctl().

slightly so lo_lock is taken fewer times per request.  Also it was quite

nice (not that I particularly saw any mem ordering bugs).

This memory barrier is not needed because the waitqueue will only get waiters
on it in the following situations:

rq->count has exceeded the threshold - however all manipulations of ->count
are performed under the runqueue lock, and so we will correctly pick up any
waiter.

Memory allocation for the request fails.  In this case, there is no additional
help provided by the memory barrier.  We are guaranteed to eventually wake up
waiters because the request allocation mempool guarantees that if the mem
allocation for a request fails, there must be some requests in flight.  They
will wake up waiters when they are retired.
