block: add fs_bio_integrity helpers

2026-03-09T13:47:02+00:00

Add a set of helpers for file system initiated integrity information. These include mempool backed allocations and verifying based on a passed in sector and size which is often available from file system completion routines.

blk-mq: move the DMA mapping code to a separate file

2025-05-16T14:43:41+00:00

While working on the new DMA API I kept getting annoyed how it was placed right in the middle of the bio splitting code in blk-merge.c. Split it out into a separate file. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250513071433.836797-1-hch@lst.de Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

block: remove bounce buffering support

The block layer bounce buffering support is unused now, remove it. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Reviewed-by: Hannes Reinecke Reviewed-by: John Garry Reviewed-by: Johannes Thumshirn Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250505081138.3435992-7-hch@lst.de Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

block: move the block layer auto-integrity code into a new file

2025-03-03T18:17:52+00:00

The code that automatically creates a integrity payload and generates and verifies the checksums for bios that don't have submitter-provided integrity payload currently sits right in the middle of the block integrity metadata infrastructure. Split it into a separate file to make the different layers clear. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Reviewed-by: Anuj Gupta Reviewed-by: Kanchan Joshi Reviewed-by: Martin K.

blk-mq: remove unused queue mapping helpers

2024-12-23T15:17:23+00:00

There are no users left of the pci and virtio queue mapping helpers. Thus remove them.

block: remove the blk_integrity_profile structure

2024-06-14T16:20:06+00:00

Block layer integrity configuration is a bit complex right now, as it indirects through operation vectors for a simple two-dimensional configuration: a) the checksum type of none, ip checksum, crc, crc64 b) the presence or absence of a reference tag Remove the integrity profile, and instead add a separate csum_type flag which replaces the existing ip-checksum field and a new flag that indicates the presence of the reference tag. This removes up to two layers of indirect calls, remove the need to offload the no-op verification of non-PI metadata to a workqueue and generally simplifies the code. The downside is that block/t10-pi.c now has to be built into the kernel when CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INTEGRITY is supported. Given that both nvme and SCSI require t10-pi.ko, it is loaded for all usual configurations that enabled CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INTEGRITY already, though.

block: Move zone related debugfs attribute to blk-zoned.c

2024-04-17T14:44:03+00:00

block/blk-mq-debugfs-zone.c contains a single debugfs attribute function. Defining this outside of block/blk-zoned.c does not really help in any way, so move this zone related debugfs attribute to block/blk-zoned.c and delete block/blk-mq-debugfs-zone.c.

blk-mq-rdma: remove queue mapping helper for rdma devices

2023-04-13T06:59:05+00:00

No rdma device exposes its irq vectors affinity today. So the only mapping that we have left, is the default blk_mq_map_queues, which we fallback to anyways. Also fixup the only consumer of this helper (nvme-rdma). Remove this now dead code. Signed-off-by: Sagi Grimberg Acked-by: Keith Busch Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig

No need to have these helpers inline. Also remove the stubs and just use an IS_ENABLED for the get side (the set side already is only built conditionlly).
