Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet: "It's been a busy cycle for documentation - hopefully the busiest for a while to come. Changes include: - Some new Chinese translations - Progress on the battle against double words words and non-HTTPS URLs - Some block-mq documentation - More RST conversions from Mauro. At this point, that task is essentially complete, so we shouldn't see this kind of churn again for a while.

block: add max_active_zones to blk-sysfs

2020-07-15T20:26:11Z

Add a new max_active zones definition in the sysfs documentation. This definition will be common for all devices utilizing the zoned block device support in the kernel. Export max_active_zones according to this new definition for NVMe Zoned Namespace devices, ZAC ATA devices (which are treated as SCSI devices by the kernel), and ZBC SCSI devices. Add the new max_active_zones member to struct request_queue, rather than as a queue limit, since this property cannot be split across stacking drivers. For SCSI devices, even though max active zones is not part of the ZBC/ZAC spec, export max_active_zones as 0, signifying "no limit".

block: rename generic_make_request to submit_bio_noacct

2020-07-01T13:27:24Z

generic_make_request has always been very confusingly misnamed, so rename it to submit_bio_noacct to make it clear that it is submit_bio minus accounting and a few checks. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

block: move ->make_request_fn to struct block_device_operations

2020-07-01T13:27:24Z

The make_request_fn is a little weird in that it sits directly in struct request_queue instead of an operation vector. Replace it with a block_device_operations method called submit_bio (which describes much better what it does). Also remove the request_queue argument to it, as the queue can be derived pretty trivially from the bio. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe
