block: rename generic_make_request to submit_bio_noacct

2020-07-01T13:27:24+00:00

generic_make_request has always been very confusingly misnamed, so rename it to submit_bio_noacct to make it clear that it is submit_bio minus accounting and a few checks. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

tcp: add tcp_sock_set_cork

2020-05-28T18:11:45+00:00

Add a helper to directly set the TCP_CORK sockopt from kernel space without going through a fake uaccess. Cleanup the callers to avoid pointless wrappers now that this is a simple function call. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

block: move the part_stat* helpers from genhd.h to a new header

2020-03-25T15:50:09+00:00

These macros are just used by a few files. Move them out of genhd.h, which is included everywhere into a new standalone header. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

drbd: fifo_alloc() should use struct_size

2020-01-30T04:03:33+00:00

Switching to struct_size for the allocation in fifo_alloc avoids hard-coding the type of fifo_buffer.values in fifo_alloc. It also provides overflow protection; to avoid pessimistic code being generated by the compiler as a result, this patch also switches fifo_size to unsigned, propagating the change as appropriate.

crypto: shash - remove shash_desc::flags

2019-04-25T07:38:12+00:00

The flags field in 'struct shash_desc' never actually does anything. The only ostensibly supported flag is CRYPTO_TFM_REQ_MAY_SLEEP. However, no shash algorithm ever sleeps, making this flag a no-op. With this being the case, inevitably some users who can't sleep wrongly pass MAY_SLEEP. These would all need to be fixed if any shash algorithm actually started sleeping. For example, the shash_ahash_*() functions, which wrap a shash algorithm with the ahash API, pass through MAY_SLEEP from the ahash API to the shash API. However, the shash functions are called under kmap_atomic(), so actually they're assumed to never sleep. Even if it turns out that some users do need preemption points while hashing large buffers, we could easily provide a helper function crypto_shash_update_large() which divides the data into smaller chunks and calls crypto_shash_update() and cond_resched() for each chunk. It's not necessary to have a flag in 'struct shash_desc', nor is it necessary to make individual shash algorithms aware of this at all. Therefore, remove shash_desc::flags, and document that the crypto_shash_*() functions can be called from any context. Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

drbd: introduce P_ZEROES (REQ_OP_WRITE_ZEROES on the "wire")

2018-12-20T16:51:31+00:00

And also re-enable partial-zero-out + discard aligned. With the introduction of REQ_OP_WRITE_ZEROES, we started to use that for both WRITE_ZEROES and DISCARDS, hoping that WRITE_ZEROES would "do what we want", UNMAP if possible, zero-out the rest. The example scenario is some LVM "thin" backend. While an un-allocated block on dm-thin reads as zeroes, on a dm-thin with "skip_block_zeroing=true", after a partial block write allocated that block, that same block may well map "undefined old garbage" from the backends on LBAs that have not yet been written to. If we cannot distinguish between zero-out and discard on the receiving side, to avoid "undefined old garbage" to pop up randomly at later times on supposedly zero-initialized blocks, we'd need to map all discards to zero-out on the receiving side. But that would potentially do a full alloc on thinly provisioned backends, even when the expectation was to unmap/trim/discard/de-allocate. We need to distinguish on the protocol level, whether we need to guarantee zeroes (and thus use zero-out, potentially doing the mentioned full-alloc), or if we want to put the emphasis on discard, and only do a "best effort zeroing" (by "discarding" blocks aligned to discard-granularity, and zeroing only potential unaligned head and tail clippings to at least *try* to avoid "false positives" in an online-verify later), hoping that someone set skip_block_zeroing=false. For some discussion regarding this on dm-devel, see also https://www.mail-archive.com/dm-devel%40redhat.com/msg07965.html https://www.redhat.com/archives/dm-devel/2018-January/msg00271.html For backward compatibility, P_TRIM means zero-out, unless the DRBD_FF_WZEROES feature flag is agreed upon during handshake. To have upper layers even try to submit WRITE ZEROES requests, we need to announce "efficient zeroout" independently. We need to fixup max_write_zeroes_sectors after blk_queue_stack_limits(): if we can handle "zeroes" efficiently on the protocol, we want to do that, even if our backend does not announce max_write_zeroes_sectors itself.

drbd: Convert from ahash to shash

2018-09-06T21:12:24+00:00

In preparing to remove all stack VLA usage from the kernel[1], this removes the discouraged use of AHASH_REQUEST_ON_STACK in favor of the smaller SHASH_DESC_ON_STACK by converting from ahash-wrapped-shash to direct shash. By removing a layer of indirection this both improves performance and reduces stack usage. The stack allocation will be made a fixed size in a later patch to the crypto subsystem. The bulk of the lines in this change are simple s/ahash/shash/, but the main logic differences are in drbd_csum_ee() and drbd_csum_bio(), which externalizes the page walking with k(un)map_atomic() instead of using scattergather.

block: Add part_stat_read_accum to read across field entries.

2018-07-18T14:44:16+00:00

Add a part_stat_read_accum macro to genhd.h to read and sum across field entries. For example to sum up the number read and write sectors completed. In addition to being ar reasonable cleanup by itself this will make it easier to add new stat fields in the future. tj: Refreshed on top of v4.17.
