block: Use pointer to backing_dev_info from request_queue

2017-02-02T15:20:48+00:00

We will want to have struct backing_dev_info allocated separately from struct request_queue. As the first step add pointer to backing_dev_info to request_queue and convert all users touching it.

block: bio: pass bvec table to bio_init()

2016-11-22T15:57:21+00:00

Some drivers often use external bvec table, so introduce this helper for this case. It is always safe to access the bio->bi_io_vec in this way for this case. After converting to this usage, it will becomes a bit easier to evaluate the remaining direct access to bio->bi_io_vec, so it can help to prepare for the following multipage bvec support. Signed-off-by: Ming Lei Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig Fixed up the new O_DIRECT cases. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

block,fs: use REQ_* flags directly

2016-11-01T15:43:26+00:00

Remove the WRITE_* and READ_SYNC wrappers, and just use the flags directly. Where applicable this also drops usage of the bio_set_op_attrs wrapper. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

bcache: use op_is_sync to check for synchronous requests

2016-11-01T15:43:26+00:00

(and remove one layer of masking for the op_is_write call next to it). Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

block: export bio_free_pages to other modules

2016-09-22T13:48:03+00:00

bio_free_pages is introduced in commit 1dfa0f68c040 ("block: add a helper to free bio bounce buffer pages"), we can reuse the func in other modules after it was imported.

block: rename bio bi_rw to bi_opf

2016-08-07T20:41:02+00:00

Since commit 63a4cc24867d, bio->bi_rw contains flags in the lower portion and the op code in the higher portions. This means that old code that relies on manually setting bi_rw is most likely going to be broken. Instead of letting that brokeness linger, rename the member, to force old and out-of-tree code to break at compile time instead of at runtime. No intended functional changes in this commit.

block, drivers, fs: rename REQ_FLUSH to REQ_PREFLUSH

2016-06-07T19:41:38+00:00

To avoid confusion between REQ_OP_FLUSH, which is handled by request_fn drivers, and upper layers requesting the block layer perform a flush sequence along with possibly a WRITE, this patch renames REQ_FLUSH to REQ_PREFLUSH.
