b1ad37efca NVMe: Call put_nvmeq() before calling nvme_submit_sync_cmd()
We can't have preemption disabled when we call schedule().  Accept the
possibility that we'll get preempted, and it'll cost us some cacheline
bounces.

3c0cf138d7 NVMe: Allow fatal signals to interrupt I/O
If the user sends a fatal signal, sleeping in the TASK_KILLABLE state
permits the task to be aborted.  The only wrinkle is making sure that
if/when the command completes later that it doesn't upset anything.
Handle this by setting the data pointer to 0, and checking the value
isn't NULL in the sync completion path.  Eventually, bios can be cancelled
through this path too.  Note that the cmdid isn't freed to prevent reuse.

We should also abort the command in the future, but this is a good start.

456be1484f loop: remove the incorrect write_begin/write_end shortcut
Currently the loop device tries to call directly into write_begin/write_end
instead of going through ->write if it can.  This is a fairly nasty shortcut
as write_begin and write_end are only callbacks for the generic write code
and expect to be called with filesystem specific locks held.

This code currently causes various issues for clustered filesystems as it
doesn't take the required cluster locks, and it also causes issues for XFS
as it doesn't properly lock against the swapext ioctl as called by the
defragmentation tools.  This in case causes data corruption if
defragmentation hits a busy loop device in the wrong time window, as
reported by RH QA.

The reason why we have this shortcut is that it saves a data copy when
doing a transformation on the loop device, which is the technical term
for using cryptoloop (or an XOR transformation).  Given that cryptoloop
has been deprecated in favour of dm-crypt my opinion is that we should
simply drop this shortcut instead of finding complicated ways to to
introduce a formal interface for this shortcut.

The 'operation' parameters are the ones provided to the bio layer while

frontend. We used the wrong 'operation' value to squash the
call to map pages when processing the discard operation resulting
in an hypercall that did nothing. Lets guard against going in the

there are no more outstanding I/Os, then we have drained all I/Os.

Guard against issuing BLKIF_OP_WRITE_BARRIER or BLKIF_OP_FLUSH_CACHE

The negotiation with the backend also sets the q->flush_flags which
fortunately for us is also used when submitting an bio to us. If
we don't support barriers or flushes it would be set to zero so
we should never end up having to deal with REQ_FLUSH | REQ_FUA.

However, other third party implementations of __make_request that
might be stacked on top of us might not be so smart, so lets fix this up.

However, when we setup the request queue, we pass blkif_io_lock to
blk_init_queue so rq->queue_lock is blkif_io_lock indeed, and this lock
is already taken when we are in blkif_interrpt, so remove the
spin_lock/spin_unlock when we clear the discard flag or we will end up

0930bba674 xen: modify kernel mappings corresponding to granted pages
If we want to use granted pages for AIO, changing the mappings of a user
vma and the corresponding p2m is not enough, we also need to update the
kernel mappings accordingly.
Currently this is only needed for pages that are created for user usages
through /dev/xen/gntdev. As in, pages that have been in use by the
kernel and use the P2M will not need this special mapping.
However there are no guarantees that in the future the kernel won't
start accessing pages through the 1:1 even for internal usage.

In order to avoid the complexity of dealing with highmem, we allocated
the pages lowmem.
We issue a HYPERVISOR_grant_table_op right away in
m2p_add_override and we remove the mappings using another
HYPERVISOR_grant_table_op in m2p_remove_override.
Considering that m2p_add_override and m2p_remove_override are called
once per page we use multicalls and hypercall batching.

Use the kmap_op pointer directly as argument to do the mapping as it is
guaranteed to be present up until the unmapping is done.
Before issuing any unmapping multicalls, we need to make sure that the
mapping has already being done, because we need the kmap->handle to be
set correctly.

If the loop device is associated (lo->lo_state == Lo_bound), it will have
a valid bdev pointed to by lo->lo_device.  There is no reason to ever pass

There is very little benefit in allowing to let a ->make_request
instance update the bios device and sector and loop around it in
__generic_make_request when we can archive the same through calling
generic_make_request from the driver and letting the loop in
generic_make_request handle it.

Note that various drivers got the return value from ->make_request and
returned non-zero values for errors.

e03c8dd149 loop: always allow userspace partitions and optionally support automatic scanning
Automatic partition scanning can be requested individually per loop
device during its setup by setting LO_FLAGS_PARTSCAN. By default, no
partition tables are scanned.

Userspace can now always add and remove partitions from all loop
devices, regardless if the in-kernel partition scanner is enabled or
not.

The needed partition minor numbers are allocated from the extended
minors space, the main loop device numbers will continue to match the
loop minors, regardless of the number of partitions used.

6f5986bce5 xen-blkback: Don't disconnect backend until state switched to XenbusStateClosed.
When do block-attach/block-detach test with below steps, umount hangs
in the guest. Furthermore shutdown ends up being stuck when umounting file-systems.

1. start guest.
2. attach new block device by xm block-attach in Dom0.
3. mount new disk in guest.
4. execute xm block-detach to detach the block device in dom0 until timeout
5. Any request to the disk will hung.

Root cause:
This issue is caused when setting backend device's state to
'XenbusStateClosing', which sends to the frontend the XenbusStateClosing
notification. When frontend receives the notification it tries to release
the disk in blkfront_closing(), but at that moment the disk is still in use
by guest, so frontend refuses to close. Specifically it sets the disk state to
XenbusStateClosing and sends the notification to backend - when backend receives the
event, it disconnects the vbd from real device, and sets the vbd device state to
XenbusStateClosing. The backend disconnects the real device/file, and any IO
requests to the disk in guest will end up in ether, leaving disk DEAD and set to
XenbusStateClosing. When the guest wants to disconnect the disk, umount will
hang on blkif_release()->xlvbd_release_gendisk() as it is unable to send any IO
to the disk, which prevents clean system shutdown.

Solution:
Don't disconnect backend until frontend state switched to XenbusStateClosed.

dfaa2ef68e loop: add discard support for loop devices
This commit adds discard support for loop devices. Discard is usually
supported by SSD and thinly provisioned devices as a method for
reclaiming unused space. This is no different than trying to reclaim
back space which is not used by the file system on the image, but it
still occupies space on the host file system.

We can do the reclamation on file system which does support hole
punching. So when discard request gets to the loop driver we can
translate that to punch a hole to the underlying file, hence reclaim
the free space.

This is very useful for trimming down the size of the image to only what
is really used by the file system on that image. Fstrim may be used for
that purpose.

It has been tested on ext4, xfs and btrfs with the image file systems
ext4, ext3, xfs and btrfs. ext4, or ext6 image on ext4 file system has
some problems but it seems that ext4 punch hole implementation is
somewhat flawed and it is unrelated to this commit.

Also this is a very good method of validating file systems punch hole
implementation.

Note that when encryption is used, discard support is disabled, because
using it might leak some information useful for possible attacker.

770fe30a46 loop: add management interface for on-demand device allocation
Loop devices today have a fixed pre-allocated number of usually 8.
The number can only be changed at module init time. To find a free
device to use, /dev/loop%i needs to be scanned, and all devices need
to be opened until a free one is possibly found.

This adds a new /dev/loop-control device node, that allows to
dynamically find or allocate a free device, and to add and remove loop
devices from the running system:
 LOOP_CTL_ADD adds a specific device. Arg is the number
 of the device. It returns the device i or a negative
 error code.

 LOOP_CTL_REMOVE removes a specific device, Arg is the
 number the device. It returns the device i or a negative
 error code.

 LOOP_CTL_GET_FREE finds the next unbound device or allocates
 a new one. No arg is given. It returns the device i or a
 negative error code.

The loop kernel module gets automatically loaded when
/dev/loop-control is accessed the first time. The alias
specified in the module, instructs udev to create this
'dead' device node, even when the module is not loaded.

Example:
 cfd = open("/dev/loop-control", O_RDWR);

 # add a new specific loop device
 err = ioctl(cfd, LOOP_CTL_ADD, devnr);

 # remove a specific loop device
 err = ioctl(cfd, LOOP_CTL_REMOVE, devnr);

 # find or allocate a free loop device to use
 devnr = ioctl(cfd, LOOP_CTL_GET_FREE);

 sprintf(loopname, "/dev/loop%i", devnr);
 ffd = open("backing-file", O_RDWR);
 lfd = open(loopname, O_RDWR);
 err = ioctl(lfd, LOOP_SET_FD, ffd);

These were intended to avoid the namespace clash when representing

So for now go back to the scheme which does no adjustments. This

The last commit, drbd: add missing spinlock to bitmap receive,
introduced a cond_resched_lock(), where the lock in question is taken

As we must not schedule with IRQs disabled,
and cond_resched_lock_irq() does not exist, yet,
we re-aquire the spin_lock_irq() for each bitmap page processed in turn.

829c608786 drbd: add missing spinlock to bitmap receive
During bitmap exchange, when using the RLE bitmap compression scheme,
we have a code path that can set the whole bitmap at once.

To avoid holding spin_lock_irq() for too long, we used to lock out other
bitmap modifications during bitmap exchange by other means, and then,
knowing we have exclusive access to the bitmap, modify it without
the spinlock, and with IRQs enabled.

Since we now allow local IO to continue, potentially setting additional
bits during the bitmap receive phase, this is no longer true, and we get
uncoordinated updates of bitmap members, causing bm_set to no longer
accurately reflect the total number of set bits.

To actually see this, you'd need to have a large bitmap, use RLE bitmap
compression, and have busy IO during sync handshake and bitmap exchange.

Fix this by taking the spin_lock_irq() in this code path as well, but
calling cond_resched_lock() after each page worth of bits processed.

Jens' back-merge commit 698567f3fa ("Merge commit 'v2.6.39' into
for-2.6.40/core") was incorrectly done, and re-introduced the
DISK_EVENT_MEDIA_CHANGE lines that had been removed earlier in commits

 - 9fd097b149 ("block: unexport DISK_EVENT_MEDIA_CHANGE for
   legacy/fringe drivers")

 - 7eec77a181 ("ide: unexport DISK_EVENT_MEDIA_CHANGE for ide-gd
   and ide-cd")

because of conflicts with the "g->flags" updates near-by by commit
d4dc210f69 ("block: don't block events on excl write for non-optical
devices")

As a result, we re-introduced the hanging behavior due to infinite disk
media change reports.

Tssk, tssk, people! Don't do back-merges at all, and *definitely* don't
do them to hide merge conflicts from me - especially as I'm likely
better at merging them than you are, since I do so many merges.

5988ce2396 nbd: adjust 'max_part' according to part_shift
The 'max_part' parameter determines how many partitions are supported
on each nbd device. However the actual number can be changed to the
power of 2 minus 1 form during the module initialization as
alloc_disk() is called with (1 << part_shift) for some reason.

So adjust 'max_part' also at least for consistency with loop and brd.
It is exported via sysfs already, and a user should check this value
after module loading if [s]he wants to use that number correctly
(i.e. fdisk or something).

3b2710824e nbd: limit module parameters to a sane value
The 'max_part' parameter controls the number of maximum partition
a nbd device can have. However if a user specifies very large
value it would exceed the limitation of device minor number and
can cause a kernel oops (or, at least, produce invalid device
nodes in some cases).

In addition, specifying large 'nbds_max' value causes same
problem for the same reason.

On my desktop, following command results to the kernel bug:

$ sudo modprobe nbd max_part=100000

35fbf5bcf4 nbd: pass MSG_* flags to kernel_recvmsg()
Unlike kernel_sendmsg(), kernel_recvmsg() requires passing flags explicitly
via last parameter instead of struct msghdr.msg_flags. Therefore calls to
sock_xmit(lo, 0, ..., MSG_WAITALL) have not been processed properly by tcp
layer wrt. the flag. Fix it.

ac04fee0b5 loop: export module parameters
Export 'max_loop' and 'max_part' parameters to sysfs so user can know
that how many devices are allowed and how many partitions are supported.

If 'max_loop' is 0, there is no restriction on the number of loop devices.
User can create/use the devices as many as minor numbers available. If
'max_part' is 0, it means simply the device doesn't support partitioning.

Also note that 'max_part' can be adjusted to power of 2 minus 1 form if
needed. User should check this value after the module loading if he/she
want to use that number correctly (i.e. fdisk, mknod, etc.).

af46566885 brd: handle on-demand devices correctly
When finding or allocating a ram disk device, brd_probe() did not take
partition numbers into account so that it can result to a different
device. Consider following example (I set CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM_COUNT=4
for simplicity) :

$ sudo modprobe brd max_part=15
$ ls -l /dev/ram*
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 1,  0 2011-05-25 15:41 /dev/ram0
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 1, 16 2011-05-25 15:41 /dev/ram1
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 1, 32 2011-05-25 15:41 /dev/ram2
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 1, 48 2011-05-25 15:41 /dev/ram3
$ sudo mknod /dev/ram4 b 1 64
$ sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/ram4 bs=4k count=256
256+0 records in
256+0 records out
1048576 bytes (1.0 MB) copied, 0.00215578 s, 486 MB/s
namhyung@leonhard:linux$ ls -l /dev/ram*
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 1,    0 2011-05-25 15:41 /dev/ram0
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 1,   16 2011-05-25 15:41 /dev/ram1
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 1,   32 2011-05-25 15:41 /dev/ram2
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 1,   48 2011-05-25 15:41 /dev/ram3
brw-r--r-- 1 root root 1,   64 2011-05-25 15:45 /dev/ram4
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 1, 1024 2011-05-25 15:44 /dev/ram64

After this patch, /dev/ram4 - instead of /dev/ram64 - was
accessed correctly.

In addition, 'range' passed to blk_register_region() should
include all range of dev_t that RAMDISK_MAJOR can address.
It does not need to be limited by partition numbers unless
'rd_nr' param was specified.

315980c868 brd: limit 'max_part' module param to DISK_MAX_PARTS
The 'max_part' parameter controls the number of maximum partition
a brd device can have. However if a user specifies very large
value it would exceed the limitation of device minor number and
can cause a kernel panic (or, at least, produce invalid device
nodes in some cases).

On my desktop system, following command kills the kernel. On qemu,
it triggers similar oops but the kernel was alive:

9a0d9d0389 drbd: fix schedule in atomic
An administrative detach used to request a state change directly to D_DISKLESS,
first suspending IO to avoid the last put_ldev() occuring from an endio handler,
potentially in irq context.

This is not enough on the receiving side (typically secondary), we may miss
some peer_req on the way to local disk, which then may do the last put_ldev()
from their drbd_peer_request_endio().

This patch makes the detach always go through the intermediate D_FAILED state.
We may consider to rename it D_DETACHING.

Alternative approach would be to create yet an other work item to be scheduled
on the worker, do the destructor work from there, and get the timing right.

99432fcc52 drbd: Take a more conservative approach when deciding max_bio_size
The old (optimistic) implementation could shrink the bio size
on an primary device.

Shrinking the bio size on a primary device is bad. Since there
we might get BIOs with the old (bigger) size shortly after
we published the new size.

The new implementation is more conservative, and eventually
increases the max_bio_size on a primary device (which is valid).
It does so, when it knows the local limit AND the remote limit.

 We cache the last seen max_bio_size of the peer in the meta
 data, and rely on that, to make the operation of single
 nodes more efficient.

f36af18c7b drbd: fix disconnect/reconnect loop, if ping-timeout == ping-int
If there is no replication traffic within the idle timeout
(ping-int seconds), DRBD will send a P_PING,
and adjust the timeout to ping-timeout.

If there is no P_PING_ACK received within this ping-timeout,
DRBD finally drops the connection, and tries to re-establish it.

To decide which timeout was active, we compared the current timeout
with the ping-timeout, and dropped the connection, if that was the case.

By default, ping-int is 10 seconds, ping-timeout is 500 ms.

Unfortunately, if you configure ping-timeout to be the same as ping-int,
expiry of the idle-timeout had been mistaken for a missing ping ack,
and caused an immediate reconnection attempt.

Fix:
Allow both timeouts to be equal, use a local variable
to store which timeout is active.

53ea433145 drbd: fix potential distributed deadlock
We limit ourselves to a configurable maximum number of pages used as
temporary bio pages.

If the configured "max_buffers" is not big enough to match the bandwidth
of the respective deployment, a distributed deadlock could be triggered
by e.g. fast online verify and heavy application IO.

TCP connections would block on congestion, because both receivers
would wait on pages to become available.

Fortunately the respective senders in this case would be able to give
back some pages already. So do that.

In case a write failes on the local disk, go into D_INCONSISTENT
disk state. That causes future reads of that block to be shipped
to the peer.

Read retry remote was already in place.

Actually the documentation needs to get fixed now. Since the
application is still shielded from the error. (as long as we have
only a single disk failing) The difference to detach is that
we keep the disk. And therefore might keep all the other, still
working sectors up to date.

1fec70932d rbd: fix split bio handling
The rbd driver currently splits bios when they span an object boundary.
However, the blk_end_request expects the completions to roll up the results
in block device order, and the split rbd/ceph ops can complete in any
order.  This patch adds a struct rbd_req_coll to track completion of split
requests and ensures that the results are passed back up to the block layer
in order.

This fixes errors where the file system gets completion of a read operation
that spans an object boundary before the data has actually arrived.  The
bug is easily reproduced with iozone with a working set larger than
available RAM.

5afe278114 cciss: do soft reset if hard reset is broken
on driver load, if reset_devices is set, and the hard reset
attempts fail, try to bring up the controller to the point that
a command can be sent, and send it a soft reset command, then
after the reset undo whatever driver initialization was done to get
it to the point to take a command, and re-do it after the reset.

This is to get kdump to work on all the "non-resettable" controllers
(except 64xx controllers which can't be reset due to the potentially
shared cache module.)

bf2e2e6b87 cciss: use new doorbell-bit-5 reset method
The bit-2-doorbell reset method seemed to cause (survivable) NMIs
on some systems and (unsurvivable) IOCK NMIs on some G7 servers.
Firmware guys implemented a new doorbell method to alleviate these
problems triggered by bit 5 of the doorbell register.  We want to
use it if it's available.

62710ae1ce cciss: do a better job of detecting controller reset failure
Detect failure of controller reset by noticing if the 32 bytes of
"driver version" we store on the hardware in the config table
fail to get zeroed out.  Previously we noticed if the controller
did not transition to "simple mode", but this did not detect reset
failure if the controller was already in simple mode prior to
the reset attempt (e.g. due to module parameter hpsa_simple_mode=1).

013c3ca184 xen/blkback: Stick REQ_SYNC on WRITEs to deal with CFQ I/O scheduler.
If one runs a simple fio request with random read/write with a
20%/80% ratio, the numbers are incredibly bad when using the CFQ scheduler.

IOmeter       |       |      |          |
64K, randrw   |  NOOP | CFQ  | deadline |
randrwmix=80  |       |      |          |
--------------+-------+------+----------+
blkback       |103/27 |32/10 | 102/27   |
--------------+-------+------+----------+
QEMU qdisk    |103/27 |102/27| 102/27   |

The problem as explained by Vivek Goyal was:

".. that difference is that sync vs async requests. In the case of
a kernel thread submitting IO, [..] all the WRITES might be being
considered as async and will go in a different queue. If you mix those
with some READS, they are always sync and will go in differnet queue.
In presence of sync queue, CFQ will idle and choke up WRITES in
an attempt to improve latencies of READs.

In case of AIO [note: this is what QEMU qdisk is doing] , [..]
it is direct IO and both READS and WRITES will be considered SYNC
and will go in a single queue and no choking of WRITES will take place."

The solution is quite simple, tack on REQ_SYNC (which is
what the WRITE_ODIRECT macro points to) and the numbers go
back up.

97961ef46b xen/blkback: Move the plugging/unplugging to a higher level.
We used to the plug/unplug on the submit_bio. But that means
if within a stream of WRITE, WRITE, WRITE,...,WRITE we have
one READ, it could stall the pipeline (as the 'submio_bio'
could trigger the unplug_fnc to be called and stall/sync
when doing the READ). Instead we want to move the unplugging
when the whole (or as a much as possible) ring buffer has been
processed. This also eliminates us doing plug/unplug for
each request.

9fd097b149 block: unexport DISK_EVENT_MEDIA_CHANGE for legacy/fringe drivers
In-kernel disk event polling doesn't matter for legacy/fringe drivers
and may lead to infinite event loop if ->check_events() implementation
generates events on level condition instead of edge.

Now that block layer supports suppressing exporting unlisted events,
simply leaving disk->events cleared allows these drivers to keep the
internal revalidation behavior intact while avoiding weird
interactions with userland event handler.
