block, sx8: fix pointer math issue getting fw version

2012-03-19T15:57:58+00:00

commit ea5f4db8ece896c2ab9eafa0924148a2596c52e4 upstream. "mem" is type u8. We need parenthesis here or it screws up the pointer math probably leading to an oops. Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter Acked-by: Jeff Garzik Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

block: Consolidate phys_segment and hw_segment limits

2010-02-26T12:58:08+00:00

Except for SCSI no device drivers distinguish between physical and hardware segment limits. Consolidate the two into a single segment limit. Signed-off-by: Martin K. Petersen Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

block: make PCI device id constant

2010-01-11T13:31:26+00:00

The id_table field of the struct pci_driver is constant in so it is worth to make the initialization data also constant. The semantic match that finds this kind of pattern is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // @r@ disable decl_init,const_decl_init; identifier I1, I2, x; @@ struct I1 { ... const struct I2 *x; ... }; @s@ identifier r.I1, y; identifier r.x, E; @@ struct I1 y = { .x = E, }; @c@ identifier r.I2; identifier s.E; @@ const struct I2 E[] = ... ; @depends on !c@ identifier r.I2; identifier s.E; @@ + const struct I2 E[] = ...; // Signed-off-by: Márton Németh Cc: Julia Lawall Cc: cocci@diku.dk Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

block: implement and enforce request peek/start/fetch

2009-05-11T07:52:18+00:00

Till now block layer allowed two separate modes of request execution. A request is always acquired from the request queue via elv_next_request(). After that, drivers are free to either dequeue it or process it without dequeueing. Dequeue allows elv_next_request() to return the next request so that multiple requests can be in flight. Executing requests without dequeueing has its merits mostly in allowing drivers for simpler devices which can't do sg to deal with segments only without considering request boundary. However, the benefit this brings is dubious and declining while the cost of the API ambiguity is increasing. Segment based drivers are usually for very old or limited devices and as converting to dequeueing model isn't difficult, it doesn't justify the API overhead it puts on block layer and its more modern users. Previous patches converted all block low level drivers to dequeueing model. This patch completes the API transition by... * renaming elv_next_request() to blk_peek_request() * renaming blkdev_dequeue_request() to blk_start_request() * adding blk_fetch_request() which is combination of peek and start * disallowing completion of queued (not started) requests * applying new API to all LLDs Renamings are for consistency and to break out of tree code so that it's apparent that out of tree drivers need updating.

block: convert to pos and nr_sectors accessors

2009-05-11T07:50:54+00:00

With recent cleanups, there is no place where low level driver directly manipulates request fields. This means that the 'hard' request fields always equal the !hard fields. Convert all rq->sectors, nr_sectors and current_nr_sectors references to accessors. While at it, drop superflous blk_rq_pos() < 0 test in swim.c.

block: implement and use [__]blk_end_request_all()

2009-04-28T05:37:35+00:00

There are many [__]blk_end_request() call sites which call it with full request length and expect full completion. Many of them ensure that the request actually completes by doing BUG_ON() the return value, which is awkward and error-prone. This patch adds [__]blk_end_request_all() which takes @rq and @error and fully completes the request. BUG_ON() is added to to ensure that this actually happens. Most conversions are simple but there are a few noteworthy ones. * cdrom/viocd: viocd_end_request() replaced with direct calls to __blk_end_request_all(). * s390/block/dasd: dasd_end_request() replaced with direct calls to __blk_end_request_all(). * s390/char/tape_block: tapeblock_end_request() replaced with direct calls to blk_end_request_all().
