2009-09-16writeback: separate starting of sync vs opportunistic writebackJens Axboe2-3/+3
bdi_start_writeback() is currently split into two paths, one for WB_SYNC_NONE and one for WB_SYNC_ALL. Add bdi_sync_writeback() for WB_SYNC_ALL writeback and let bdi_start_writeback() handle only WB_SYNC_NONE. Push down the writeback_control allocation and only accept the parameters that make sense for each function. This cleans up the API considerably. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
2009-09-16writeback: use RCU to protect bdi_listJens Axboe1-0/+1
Now that bdi_writeback_all() no longer handles integrity writeback, it doesn't have to block anymore. This means that we can switch bdi_list reader side protection to RCU. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
2009-09-16fs: Assign bdi in super_blockJens Axboe1-0/+1
We do this automatically in get_sb_bdev() from the set_bdev_super() callback. Filesystems that have their own private backing_dev_info must assign that in ->fill_super(). Note that ->s_bdi assignment is required for proper writeback! Acked-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

Fixed up trivial conflicts: - arch/x86/include/asm/socket.h converted to <asm-generic/socket.h> in the x86 tree. The generic header has the same new #define's, so that works out fine. - drivers/net/tun.c fix conflict between 89f56d1e9 ("tun: reuse struct sock fields") that switched over to using 'tun->socket.sk' instead of the redundantly available (and thus removed) 'tun->sk', and 2b980dbd ("lsm: Add hooks to the TUN driver") which added a new 'tun->sk' use. Noted in 'next' by Stephen Rothwell.

2009-09-14vfs: Remove generic_osync_inode() and sync_page_range{_nolock}()Jan Kara2-9/+0
Remove these three functions since nobody uses them anymore. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>
2009-09-14vfs: Introduce new helpers for syncing after writing to O_SYNC file or ↵Jan Kara1-0/+3
IS_SYNC inode Introduce new function for generic inode syncing (vfs_fsync_range) and use it from fsync() path. Introduce also new helper for syncing after a sync write (generic_write_sync) using the generic function. Use these new helpers for syncing from generic VFS functions. This makes O_SYNC writes to block devices acquire i_mutex for syncing. If we really care about this, we can make block_fsync() drop the i_mutex and reacquire it before it returns.

2009-09-14vfs: Rename generic_file_aio_write_nolockChristoph Hellwig1-2/+4
generic_file_aio_write_nolock() is now used only by block devices and raw character device. Filesystems should use __generic_file_aio_write() in case generic_file_aio_write() doesn't suit them. So rename the function to blkdev_aio_write() and move it to fs/blockdev.c. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>

2009-09-14block: use blkdev_issue_discard in blk_ioctl_discardChristoph Hellwig1-3/+6
blk_ioctl_discard duplicates large amounts of code from blkdev_issue_discard, the only difference between the two is that blkdev_issue_discard needs to send a barrier discard request and blk_ioctl_discard a non-barrier one, and blk_ioctl_discard needs to wait on the request. To facilitates this add a flags argument to blkdev_issue_discard to control both aspects of the behaviour. This will be very useful later on for using the waiting funcitonality for other callers.

2009-09-14Make DISCARD_BARRIER and DISCARD_NOBARRIER writes instead of readsDavid Woodhouse1-2/+2
The commands are conceptually writes, and in the case of IDE and SCSI commands actually are writes. They were only reads because we thought that would interact better with the elevators. Now the elevators know about discard requests, that advantage no longer exists.

2009-09-14Seperate read and write statistics of in_flight requestsNikanth Karthikesan1-7/+14
Currently, there is a single in_flight counter measuring the number of requests in the request_queue. But some monitoring tools would like to know how many read requests and write requests are in progress. Split the current in_flight counter into two seperate counters for read and write. This information is exported as a sysfs attribute, as changing the currently available stat files would break the existing tools.

2009-09-12V4L/DVB (12275): Add two new ioctls: DMX_ADD_PID and DMX_REMOVE_PIDAndreas Oberritter1-0/+2
DMX_ADD_PID allows to add multiple PIDs to a transport stream filter previously set up with DMX_SET_PES_FILTER and output=DMX_OUT_TSDEMUX_TAP. DMX_REMOVE_PID is used to drop a PID from a filter. These ioctls are to be used by readers of /dev/dvb/adapterX/demuxY. They may be called at any time, i.e. before or after the first filter on the shared file descriptor was started. They make it possible to record multiple services without the need to de- or re-multiplex TS packets. To accomplish this, dmxdev_filter->feed.ts has been converted to a list of struct dmxdev_feeds, each containing a PID value and a pointer to a struct dmx_ts_feed.
