* scsi: clear garbage after CDBs on SG_IOTejun Heo2006-12-171-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | ATAPI devices transfer fixed number of bytes for CDBs (12 or 16). Some ATAPI devices choke when shorter CDB is used and the left bytes contain garbage. Block SG_IO cleared left bytes but SCSI SG_IO didn't. This patch makes SCSI SG_IO clear it and simplify CDB clearing in block SG_IO.

* [PATCH] limit request_fn recursionJens Axboe2006-05-202-3/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Don't recurse back into the driver even if the unplug threshold is met, when the driver asks for a requeue. This is both silly from a logical point of view (requeues typically happen due to driver/hardware shortage), and also dangerous since we could hit an endless request_fn -> requeue -> unplug -> request_fn loop and crash on stack overrun. Also limit blk_run_queue() to one level of recursion, similar to how blk_start_queue() works. This patch fixed a real problem with SLES10 and lpfc, and it could hit any SCSI lld that returns non-zero from it's ->queuecommand() handler.

* [PATCH] Simplify proc/devices and fix early termination regressionAndrew Morton2006-05-011-92/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Repair /proc/devices early-termination regression. 2.6.16 broke /proc/devices. An application often gets an EOF before the end of data is reached, if that application uses a series of short read(2)s to access the data. I have used read buffers of varying sizes with varying degrees of unsuccess (larger sizes get further into the data than smaller sizes, following a simple pattern). It appears that the only safe way to get the data is to use a single read buffer larger than all the data in /proc/devices. The following example demonstates the problem: # dd if=/proc/devices bs=1 Character devices: 1 mem 27+0 records in 27+0 records out This patch is a backport of the fix recently accepted to Linus's tree: commit 68eef3b4791572ecb70249c7fb145bb3742dd899 [PATCH] Simplify proc/devices and fix early termination regression It replaces the complex, state-machine algorithm introduced in 2.6.16 with a simple algorithm, modeled on the implementation of /proc/interrupts.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | During testing of SLES10, we encountered a hang in the CFQ io scheduler. Turns out the deferred slice expiry logic is buggy, so remove that for now.

* [BLOCK] elevator: allow default scheduler to potentially be modularNate Diller2006-01-241-4/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Jens has decided that allowing the default scheduler to be a module is a bug, and should not be allowed under kconfig. However, I find that scenario useful for debugging, and wish for the kernel to be able to handle this situation without OOPSing, if I enable such an option in the .config directly.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | My previous default iosched patch did a poor job dealing with the 'elevator=' boot-time option. The old behavior falls back to the compiled-in default if the requested one is not registered at boot time. This patch dynamically evaluates which default to use, and emits a suitable error message when the requested scheduler is not available. It also does the 'as' -> 'anticipatory' conversion before elevator registration, which along with a modified registration function, allows it to correctly indicate which default scheduler is in use.

* [PATCH] fix queue stalling while barrier sequencingTejun Heo2006-01-121-10/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If ordered tag isn't supported, request ordering for barrier sequencing is performed by queue draining, which basically hangs the request queue until elv_completed_request() reports completion of all previous fs requests. The condition check in elv_completed_request() was only performed for fs requests. If a special request is queued between the last to-be-drained request and the barrier sequence, draining is never completed and the queue is stalled forever. This patch moves the end-of-draining condition check such that it's performed for all requests.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | HDIO_GETGEO is implemented in most block drivers, and all of them have to duplicate the code to copy the structure to userspace, as well as getting the start sector. This patch moves that to common code [1] and adds a ->getgeo method to fill out the raw kernel hd_geometry structure. For many drivers this means ->ioctl can go away now. [1] the s390 block drivers are odd in this respect. xpram sets ->start to 4 always which seems more than odd, and the dasd driver shifts the start offset around, probably because of it's non-standard sector size.

Since block/scsi_ioctl.c SG_IO was already testing against max_sectors and SCSI-ml was setting max_sectors and max_hw_sectors to the same value this does not change any scsi SG_IO behavior. It only prepares ll_rw_blk.c, scsi_ioctl.c and bio.c for when SCSI-ml begins to set a valid max_hw_sectors for all LLDs. Today if a LLD does not set it SCSI-ml sets it to a safe default and some LLDs set it to a artificial low value to overcome memory and feedback issues. Note: Since we now cap max_sectors to BLK_DEF_MAX_SECTORS, which is 1024, drivers that used to call blk_queue_max_sectors with a large value of max_sectors will now see the fs requests capped to BLK_DEF_MAX_SECTORS.
