ps3disk: convert to blk-mq

block: genhd: add 'groups' argument to device_add_disk

2018-09-28T14:30:28Z

Update device_add_disk() to take an 'groups' argument so that individual drivers can register a device with additional sysfs attributes. This avoids race condition the driver would otherwise have if these groups were to be created with sysfs_add_groups().

ps3disk: handle highmem pages

2018-05-11T21:08:03Z

The ps3disk driver already kmaps all pages when copying from/to the internal bounce buffer, so it can accept highmem pages just fine. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

block: introduce new block status code type

2017-06-09T15:27:32Z

Currently we use nornal Linux errno values in the block layer, and while we accept any error a few have overloaded magic meanings. This patch instead introduces a new blk_status_t value that holds block layer specific status codes and explicitly explains their meaning. Helpers to convert from and to the previous special meanings are provided for now, but I suspect we want to get rid of them in the long run - those drivers that have a errno input (e.g. networking) usually get errnos that don't know about the special block layer overloads, and similarly returning them to userspace will usually return somethings that strictly speaking isn't correct for file system operations, but that's left as an exercise for later. For now the set of errors is a very limited set that closely corresponds to the previous overloaded errno values, but there is some low hanging fruite to improve it. blk_status_t (ab)uses the sparse __bitwise annotations to allow for sparse typechecking, so that we can easily catch places passing the wrong values.

block: fold cmd_type into the REQ_OP_ space

2017-01-31T21:00:44Z

Instead of keeping two levels of indirection for requests types, fold it all into the operations. The little caveat here is that previously cmd_type only applied to struct request, while the request and bio op fields were set to plain REQ_OP_READ/WRITE even for passthrough operations. Instead this patch adds new REQ_OP_* for SCSI passthrough and driver private requests, althought it has to add two for each so that we can communicate the data in/out nature of the request.

block: convert to device_add_disk()

2016-06-27T19:26:08Z

For block drivers that specify a parent device, convert them to use device_add_disk(). This conversion was done with the following semantic patch: @@ struct gendisk *disk; expression E; @@ - disk->driverfs_dev = E; ... - add_disk(disk); + device_add_disk(E, disk); @@ struct gendisk *disk; expression E1, E2; @@ - disk->driverfs_dev = E1; ... E2 = disk; ... - add_disk(E2); + device_add_disk(E1, E2); ...plus some manual fixups for a few missed conversions. Cc: Jens Axboe Cc: Keith Busch Cc: Michael S.

block, drivers: add REQ_OP_FLUSH operation

2016-06-07T19:41:38Z

This adds a REQ_OP_FLUSH operation that is sent to request_fn based drivers by the block layer's flush code, instead of sending requests with the request->cmd_flags REQ_FLUSH bit set. Signed-off-by: Mike Christie Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig Reviewed-by: Hannes Reinecke Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

block: Kill bio_segments()/bi_vcnt usage

2013-11-24T06:33:51Z

When we start sharing biovecs, keeping bi_vcnt accurate for splits is going to be error prone - and unnecessary, if we refactor some code. So bio_segments() has to go - but most of the existing users just needed to know if the bio had multiple segments, which is easier - add a bio_multiple_segments() for them. (Two of the current uses of bio_segments() are going to go away in a couple patches, but the current implementation of bio_segments() is unsafe as soon as we start doing driver conversions for immutable biovecs - so implement a dumb version for bisectability, it'll go away in a couple patches) Signed-off-by: Kent Overstreet Cc: Jens Axboe Cc: Neil Brown Cc: Nagalakshmi Nandigama Cc: Sreekanth Reddy Cc: "James E.J.

block: Convert bio_for_each_segment() to bvec_iter

2013-11-24T06:33:49Z

More prep work for immutable biovecs - with immutable bvecs drivers won't be able to use the biovec directly, they'll need to use helpers that take into account bio->bi_iter.bi_bvec_done. This updates callers for the new usage without changing the implementation yet.
