block,ide: simplify bdops->set_capacity() to ->unlock_native_capacity()

2010-05-21T18:01:02+00:00

bdops->set_capacity() is unnecessarily generic. All that's required is a simple one way notification to lower level driver telling it to try to unlock native capacity. There's no reason to pass in target capacity or return the new capacity. The former is always the inherent native capacity and the latter can be handled via the usual device resize / revalidation path. In fact, the current API is always used that way. Replace ->set_capacity() with ->unlock_native_capacity() which take only @disk and doesn't return anything. IDE which is the only current user of the API is converted accordingly.

block: Rename blk_queue_max_sectors to blk_queue_max_hw_sectors

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

The block layer calling convention is blk_queue_. blk_queue_max_sectors predates this practice, leading to some confusion. Rename the function to appropriately reflect that its intended use is to set max_hw_sectors. Also introduce a temporary wrapper for backwards compability. This can be removed after the merge window is closed. Signed-off-by: Martin K. Petersen Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

ide: fix memory leak when flush command is issued

2009-07-22T03:23:46+00:00

I'm using ide on 2.6.30.1 with xfs filesystem. I noticed a kernel memory leak after writing lots of data, the kmalloc-96 slab cache keeps growing. It seems the struct ide_cmd kmalloced by idedisk_prepare_flush is never kfreed. Commit a09485df9cda49fbde2766c86eb18a9cae585162 ("ide: move request type specific code from ide_end_drive_cmd() to callers (v3)") and f505d49ffd25ed062e76ffd17568d3937fcd338c ("ide: fix barriers support") cause this regression, cmd->rq must now be set for ide_complete_cmd to honor the IDE_TFLAG_DYN flag.

ide: BUG() on unknown requests

2009-06-15T20:16:10+00:00

Unsupported requests should be never handed down to device drivers and the best thing we can do upon discovering such request inside driver's ->do_request method is to just BUG(). Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz

ide: preserve Host Protected Area by default (v2)

2009-06-07T11:52:52+00:00

From the perspective of most users of recent systems, disabling Host Protected Area (HPA) can break vendor RAID formats, GPT partitions and risks corrupting firmware or overwriting vendor system recovery tools. Unfortunately the original (kernels < 2.6.30) behavior (unconditionally disabling HPA and using full disk capacity) was introduced at the time when the main use of HPA was to make the drive look small enough for the BIOS to allow the system to boot with large capacity drives. Thus to allow the maximum compatibility with the existing setups (using HPA and partitioned with HPA disabled) we automically disable HPA if any partitions overlapping HPA are detected. Additionally HPA can also be disabled using the "nohpa" module parameter (i.e. "ide_core.nohpa=0.0" to disable HPA on /dev/hda). v2: Fix ->resume HPA support.

ide-gd: implement block device ->set_capacity method (v2)

2009-06-07T11:52:52+00:00

* Use ->probed_capacity to store native device capacity for ATA disks. * Add ->set_capacity method to struct ide_disk_ops. * Implement disk device ->set_capacity method for ATA disks. * Implement block device ->set_capacity method. v2: * Check if LBA and HPA are supported in ide_disk_set_capacity(). * According to the spec the SET MAX ADDRESS command shall be immediately preceded by a READ NATIVE MAX ADDRESS command. * Add ide_disk_hpa_{get_native,set}_capacity() helpers. Together with the previous patch adding ->set_capacity block device method this allows automatic disabling of Host Protected Area (HPA) if any partitions overlapping HPA are detected.
