mmc_test provides tests aimed at testing SD/MMC hosts. This patch adds
performance tests.
It is advantageous to have performance tests in a kernel
module like mmc_test for the following reasons:
- transfer times can be measured very accurately
- arbitrarily large transfers are possible
- the effect of contiguous vs scattered pages
can be determined
The new tests are:
23. Best-case read performance
24. Best-case write performance
25. Best-case read performance into scattered pages
26. Best-case write performance from scattered pages
27. Single read performance by transfer size
28. Single write performance by transfer size
29. Single trim performance by transfer size
30. Consecutive read performance by transfer size
31. Consecutive write performance by transfer size
32. Consecutive trim performance by transfer size

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

This patch fixes a bug in the multiblock write tests where the written
data is read back for verifying one block at a time. The tests in
mmc_test assumes that all cards are byte addressable.
This will cause the multi block write tests to fail, leading the user of
the mmc_test driver thinking there is something wrong with the sdhci
driver they are testing.
The start address for the block is calculated as: blocknum * 512. For
block addressable cards the blocknum alone should be used.

The mutex mmc_test_lock is initialized at every time mmc_test device
is probed. Probing another mmc_test device may break the mutex, if
the probe function is called while the mutex is locked.
This patch fixes it by statically initializing mmc_test_lock.

This reverts commit 48b5352ea1. Oversized
sg lists are not allowed anymore, and the core even checks for them in
debug mode, so this test is entirely incorrect.

Make it a bit more obvious that the card has been claimed by the
mmc_test driver so that people don't have to wonder why their block
device never shows up.

Add tests that make sure the driver properly checks the blocks and
blksz fields and doesn't assume the sg list has a size that perfectly
matches the current request.

Add a couple of tests to make sure the host driver handles highmem
memory pages properly. Unfortunately there is no way to guarantee an
allocation below 4 GB in i386, so it might give you addresses that
are out of reach for the hardware (OTOH, so will any other highmem
allocation in the kernel).
