2009-08-16Make SCSI SG v4 driver enabled by default and remove EXPERIMENTAL ↵John Stoffel
dependency, since udev depends on BSG commit 14d9fa352592582e457cf75022202766baac1348 upstream. Make Block Layer SG support v4 the default, since recent udev versions depend on this to access serial numbers and other low level info properly. This should be backported to older kernels as well, since most distros have enabled this for a long time.

2008-12-13Enforce a minimum SG_IO timeoutLinus Torvalds
commit f2f1fa78a155524b849edf359e42a3001ea652c0 upstream. There's no point in having too short SG_IO timeouts, since if the command does end up timing out, we'll end up through the reset sequence that is several seconds long in order to abort the command that timed out. As a result, shorter timeouts than a few seconds simply do not make sense, as the recovery would be longer than the timeout itself. Add a BLK_MIN_SG_TIMEOUT to match the existign BLK_DEFAULT_SG_TIMEOUT.

2008-11-20block: fix nr_phys_segments miscalculation bugFUJITA Tomonori
commit 8677142710516d986d932d6f1fba7be8382c1fec upstream backported by Nikanth Karthikesan <knikanth@suse.de> to the 2.6.27.y tree. block: fix nr_phys_segments miscalculation bug This fixes the bug reported by Nikanth Karthikesan <knikanth@suse.de>: http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/10/2/203 The root cause of the bug is that blk_phys_contig_segment miscalculates q->max_segment_size. blk_phys_contig_segment checks: req->biotail->bi_size + next_req->bio->bi_size > q->max_segment_size But blk_recalc_rq_segments might expect that req->biotail and the previous bio in the req are supposed be merged into one segment. blk_recalc_rq_segments might also expect that next_req->bio and the next bio in the next_req are supposed be merged into one segment. In such case, we merge two requests that can't be merged here. Later, blk_rq_map_sg gives more segments than it should. We need to keep track of segment size in blk_recalc_rq_segments and use it to see if two requests can be merged. This patch implements it in the similar way that we used to do for hw merging (virtual merging).

2008-09-01block: restore original behavior of /proc/partition when there's no partitionTejun Heo
/proc/partitions didn't use to write out the header if there was no partition. However, recent commit 66c64afe changed the behavior.

2008-08-29remove blk_register_filter and blk_unregister_filter in gendiskFUJITA Tomonori
This patch remove blk_register_filter and blk_unregister_filter in gendisk, and adds them to sd.c, sr.c. and ide-cd.c The commit abf5439370491dd6fbb4fe1a7939680d2a9bc9d4 moved cmdfilter from gendisk to request_queue. It turned out that in some subsystems multiple gendisks share a single request_queue. So we get: Using physmap partition information Creating 3 MTD partitions on "physmap-flash": 0x00000000-0x01c00000 : "User FS" 0x01c00000-0x01c40000 : "booter" kobject (8511c410): tried to init an initialized object, something is seriously wrong.

2008-08-27block: move cmdfilter from gendisk to request_queueFUJITA Tomonori
cmd_filter works only for the block layer SG_IO with SCSI block devices. It breaks scsi/sg.c, bsg, and the block layer SG_IO with SCSI character devices (such as st). We hit a kernel crash with them. The problem is that cmd_filter code accesses to gendisk (having struct blk_scsi_cmd_filter) via inode->i_bdev->bd_disk. It works for only SCSI block device files. With character device files, inode->i_bdev leads you to struct cdev. inode->i_bdev->bd_disk->blk_scsi_cmd_filter isn't safe. SCSI ULDs don't expose gendisk; they keep it private. bsg needs to be independent on any protocols. We shouldn't change ULDs to expose their gendisk. This patch moves struct blk_scsi_cmd_filter from gendisk to request_queue, a common object, which eveyone can access to. The user interface doesn't change; users can change the filters via /sys/block/. gendisk has a pointer to request_queue so the cmd_filter code accesses to struct blk_scsi_cmd_filter.

2008-07-30[SCSI] block: Fix miscalculation of sg_io timeout in CDROM_SEND_PACKET handler.Tim Wright
It seems cdrwtool in the udftools has been unusable on "modern" kernels for some time. A Google search reveals many people with the same issue but no solution (cdrwtool fails to format the disk). After spending some time tracking down the issue, it comes down to the following: The udftools still use the older CDROM_SEND_PACKET interface to send things like FORMAT_UNIT through to the drive. They should really be updated, but that's another story. Since most distros are using libata now, the cd or dvd burner appears as a SCSI device, and we wind up in block/scsi_ioctl.c. Here, the code tries to take the "struct cdrom_generic_command" and translate it and stuff it into a "struct sg_io_hdr" structure so it can pass it to the modern sg_io() routine instead. Unfortunately, there is one error, or rather an omission in the translation. The timeout that is passed in in the "struct cdrom_generic_command" is in HZ=100 units, and this is modified and correctly converted to jiffies by use of clock_t_to_jiffies(). However, a little further down, this cgc.timeout value in jiffies is simply copied into the sg_io_hdr timeout, which should be in milliseconds. Since most modern x86 kernels seems to be getting build with HZ=250, the timeout that is passed to sg_io and eventually converted to the timeout_per_command member of the scsi_cmnd structure is now four times too small. Since cdrwtool tries to set the timeout to one hour for the FORMAT_UNIT command, and it takes about 20 minutes to format a 4x CDRW, the SCSI error-handler kicks in after the FORMAT_UNIT completes because it took longer than the incorrectly-calculated timeout.

2008-07-21sysfs: add /sys/dev/{char,block} to lookup sysfs path by major:minorDan Williams
Why?: There are occasions where userspace would like to access sysfs attributes for a device but it may not know how sysfs has named the device or the path. For example what is the sysfs path for /dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST3160827AS_5MT004CK? With this change a call to stat(2) returns the major:minor then userspace can see that /sys/dev/block/8:32 links to /sys/block/sdc. What are the alternatives?: 1/ Add an ioctl to return the path: Doable, but sysfs is meant to reduce the need to proliferate ioctl interfaces into the kernel, so this seems counter productive. 2/ Use udev to create these symlinks: Also doable, but it adds a udev dependency to utilities that might be running in a limited environment like an initramfs. 3/ Do a full-tree search of sysfs.

2008-07-12[SCSI] bsg: fix oops on removeJames Bottomley
If you do a modremove of any sas driver, you run into an oops on shutdown when the host is removed (coming from the host bsg device). The root cause seems to be that there's a use after free of the bsg_class_device: In bsg_kref_release_function, this is used (to do a put_device(bcg->parent) after bcg->release has been called. In sas (and possibly many other things) bcd->release frees the queue which contains the bsg_class_device, so we get a put_device on unreferenced memory. Fix this by taking a copy of the pointer to the parent before releasing bsg.

2008-07-04block: blk_rq_map_kern uses the bounce buffers for stack buffersFUJITA Tomonori
blk_rq_map_kern is used for kernel internal I/Os. Some callers use this function with stack buffers but DMA to/from the stack buffers leads to memory corruption on a non-coherent platform. This patch make blk_rq_map_kern uses the bounce buffers if a caller passes a stack buffer (on the all platforms for simplicity).

2008-07-04block: add blk_queue_update_dma_padFUJITA Tomonori
This adds blk_queue_update_dma_pad to prevent LLDs from overwriting the dma pad mask wrongly (we added blk_queue_update_dma_alignment due to the same reason). This also converts libata to use blk_queue_update_dma_pad instead of blk_queue_dma_pad.

2008-07-03block: add bounce support to blk_rq_map_user_iovFUJITA Tomonori
blk_rq_map_user_iov can't handle the bounce buffer (it means that the bio_map_user_iov path doesn't work with a LLD that needs GFP_DMA). This patch fixes blk_rq_map_user_iov to support the bounce buffer.

This patch exports the per-gendisk command filter to user space through sysfs, so it can be changed by the system administrator. All users of the old cmd filter have been converted to use the new one. Original patch from Peter Jones.

Some block devices support verifying the integrity of requests by way of checksums or other protection information that is submitted along with the I/O. This patch implements support for generating and verifying integrity metadata, as well as correctly merging, splitting and cloning bios and requests that have this extra information attached.
