genhd: Rename get_disk() to get_disk_and_module()

2018-02-26T16:48:42+00:00

Rename get_disk() to get_disk_and_module() to make sure what the function does. It's not a great name but at least it is now clear that put_disk() is not it's counterpart. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

block/floppy: Convert callback to pass timer_list

2017-11-15T03:10:35+00:00

In preparation for unconditionally passing the struct timer_list pointer to all timer callbacks, switch to passing in the timer pointer explicitly. Calculate the drive from the offset of the timer in the timer list.

floppy: consolidate the dummy fd_cacheflush definition

Only mips defines this helper, so remove all the other arch definitions. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Reviewed-by: Robin Murphy

block: replace bi_bdev with a gendisk pointer and partitions index

2017-08-23T18:49:55+00:00

This way we don't need a block_device structure to submit I/O. The block_device has different life time rules from the gendisk and request_queue and is usually only available when the block device node is open. Other callers need to explicitly create one (e.g. the lightnvm passthrough code, or the new nvme multipathing code). For the actual I/O path all that we need is the gendisk, which exists once per block device. But given that the block layer also does partition remapping we additionally need a partition index, which is used for said remapping in generic_make_request. Note that all the block drivers generally want request_queue or sometimes the gendisk, so this removes a layer of indirection all over the stack.

Merge branch 'misc.compat' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs

2017-07-07T03:57:13+00:00

Pull misc compat stuff updates from Al Viro: "This part is basically untangling various compat stuff. Compat syscalls moved to their native counterparts, getting rid of quite a bit of double-copying and/or set_fs() uses. A lot of field-by-field copyin/copyout killed off. - kernel/compat.c is much closer to containing just the copyin/copyout of compat structs. Not all compat syscalls are gone from it yet, but it's getting there. - ipc/compat_mq.c killed off completely. - block/compat_ioctl.c cleaned up; floppy compat ioctls moved to drivers/block/floppy.c where they belong. Yes, there are several drivers that implement some of the same ioctls. Some are m68k and one is 32bit-only pmac. drivers/block/floppy.c is the only one in that bunch that can be built on biarch" * 'misc.compat' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: mqueue: move compat syscalls to native ones usbdevfs: get rid of field-by-field copyin compat_hdio_ioctl: get rid of set_fs() take floppy compat ioctls to sodding floppy.c ipmi: get rid of field-by-field __get_user() ipmi: get COMPAT_IPMICTL_RECEIVE_MSG in sync with the native one rt_sigtimedwait(): move compat to native select: switch compat_{get,put}_fd_set() to compat_{get,put}_bitmap() put_compat_rusage(): switch to copy_to_user() sigpending(): move compat to native getrlimit()/setrlimit(): move compat to native times(2): move compat to native compat_{get,put}_bitmap(): use unsafe_{get,put}_user() fb_get_fscreeninfo(): don't bother with do_fb_ioctl() do_sigaltstack(): lift copying to/from userland into callers take compat_sys_old_getrlimit() to native syscall trim __ARCH_WANT_SYS_OLD_GETRLIMIT

take floppy compat ioctls to sodding floppy.c

all other drivers recognizing those ioctls are very much *not* biarch. Signed-off-by: Al Viro

block: don't set bounce limit in blk_init_queue

2017-06-27T18:13:45+00:00

Instead move it to the callers. Those that either don't use bio_data() or page_address() or are specific to architectures that do not support highmem are skipped. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

block: switch bios to blk_status_t

2017-06-09T15:27:32+00:00

Replace bi_error with a new bi_status to allow for a clear conversion. Note that device mapper overloaded bi_error with a private value, which we'll have to keep arround at least for now and thus propagate to a proper blk_status_t value. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

block: introduce new block status code type

2017-06-09T15:27:32+00:00

Currently we use nornal Linux errno values in the block layer, and while we accept any error a few have overloaded magic meanings. This patch instead introduces a new blk_status_t value that holds block layer specific status codes and explicitly explains their meaning. Helpers to convert from and to the previous special meanings are provided for now, but I suspect we want to get rid of them in the long run - those drivers that have a errno input (e.g. networking) usually get errnos that don't know about the special block layer overloads, and similarly returning them to userspace will usually return somethings that strictly speaking isn't correct for file system operations, but that's left as an exercise for later. For now the set of errors is a very limited set that closely corresponds to the previous overloaded errno values, but there is some low hanging fruite to improve it. blk_status_t (ab)uses the sparse __bitwise annotations to allow for sparse typechecking, so that we can easily catch places passing the wrong values.
