of: Remove duplicate fields from of_platform_driver

2010-05-22T06:10:40+00:00

.name, .match_table and .owner are duplicated in both of_platform_driver and device_driver. This patch is a removes the extra copies from struct of_platform_driver and converts all users to the device_driver members. This patch is a pretty mechanical change. The usage model doesn't change and if any drivers have been missed, or if anything has been fixed up incorrectly, then it will fail with a compile time error, and the fixup will be trivial. This patch looks big and scary because it touches so many files, but it should be pretty safe. Signed-off-by: Grant Likely Acked-by: Sean MacLennan

of: Always use 'struct device.of_node' to get device node pointer.

2010-05-18T22:10:44+00:00

The following structure elements duplicate the information in 'struct device.of_node' and so are being eliminated. This patch makes all readers of these elements use device.of_node instead. (struct of_device *)->node (struct dev_archdata *)->prom_node (sparc) (struct dev_archdata *)->of_node (powerpc & microblaze) Signed-off-by: Grant Likely

block: make Open Firmware device id constant

2010-01-11T13:31:27+00:00

The match_table field of the struct of_device_id is constant in so it is worth to make ace_of_match 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

Remove multiple KERN_ prefixes from printk formats

2009-07-08T17:30:03+00:00

Commit 5fd29d6ccbc98884569d6f3105aeca70858b3e0f ("printk: clean up handling of log-levels and newlines") changed printk semantics. printk lines with multiple KERN_ prefixes are no longer emitted as before the patch. is now included in the output on each additional use. Remove all uses of multiple KERN_s in formats. Signed-off-by: Joe Perches Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

block: Do away with the notion of hardsect_size

2009-05-22T21:22:54+00:00

Until now we have had a 1:1 mapping between storage device physical block size and the logical block sized used when addressing the device. With SATA 4KB drives coming out that will no longer be the case. The sector size will be 4KB but the logical block size will remain 512-bytes. Hence we need to distinguish between the physical block size and the logical ditto. This patch renames hardsect_size to logical_block_size. Signed-off-by: Martin K.

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.

xsysace: dequeue in-flight request

2009-05-11T07:52:15+00:00

xsysace already tracks in-flight request using ace->req. Converting to dequeueing model is mostly a matter of adding dequeueing call after request fetching. The only tricky part is handling CF removal which should complete both in flight and on queue requests. Convert to dequeueing model. While at it, remove explicit blk_rq_cur_bytes() and use __blk_end_request_cur() instead. [ Impact: dequeue in-flight request ] Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo Cc: Grant Likely Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

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.
