2008-07-04splice: fix generic_file_splice_read() race with page invalidationMiklos Szeredi1-4/+13
If a page was invalidated during splicing from file to a pipe, then generic_file_splice_read() could return a short or zero count. This manifested itself in rare I/O errors seen on nfs exported fuse filesystems. This is because nfsd uses splice_direct_to_actor() to read files, and fuse uses invalidate_inode_pages2() to invalidate stale data on open. Fix by redoing the page find/create if it was found to be truncated (invalidated).

2008-07-04cdrom: revert commit 22a9189 (cdrom: use kmalloced buffers instead of ↵FUJITA Tomonori1-181/+93
buffers on stack) The commit 22a9189fd073db3d03a4cf8b8c098aa207602de1 (cdrom: use kmalloced buffers instead of buffers on stack) is introduced to use kmalloced buffers for packet commands to avoid stack corruption on non coherent platforms. SCSI cdrom uses blk_rq_map_kern, which properly avoids DMA on the stack by using the bounce buffers. IDE cdrom also has the mechnism to avoids DMA on the stack. So we don't need this extra complexitiy in cdrom.c, such as allocating just 8 bytes. The lower layers can handle it.

2008-07-04block: blk_rq_map_kern uses the bounce buffers for stack buffersFUJITA Tomonori1-0/+5
blk_rq_map_kern is used for kernel internal I/Os. Some callers use this function with stack buffers but DMA to/from the stack buffers leads to memory corruption on a non-coherent platform. This patch make blk_rq_map_kern uses the bounce buffers if a caller passes a stack buffer (on the all platforms for simplicity).

2008-07-04block: add blk_queue_update_dma_padFUJITA Tomonori3-5/+23
This adds blk_queue_update_dma_pad to prevent LLDs from overwriting the dma pad mask wrongly (we added blk_queue_update_dma_alignment due to the same reason). This also converts libata to use blk_queue_update_dma_pad instead of blk_queue_dma_pad.

2008-07-03Add bvec_merge_data to handle stacked devices and ->merge_bvec()Alasdair G Kergon7-29/+60
When devices are stacked, one device's merge_bvec_fn may need to perform the mapping and then call one or more functions for its underlying devices. The following bio fields are used: bio->bi_sector bio->bi_bdev bio->bi_size bio->bi_rw using bio_data_dir() This patch creates a new struct bvec_merge_data holding a copy of those fields to avoid having to change them directly in the struct bio when going down the stack only to have to change them back again on the way back up. (And then when the bio gets mapped for real, the whole exercise gets repeated, but that's a problem for another day...)

2008-07-03xen: Avoid allocations causing swap activity on the resume pathIan Campbell4-10/+11
Avoid allocations causing swap activity on the resume path by preventing the allocations from doing IO and allowing them to access the emergency pools. These paths are used when a frontend device is trying to connect to its backend driver over Xenbus. These reconnections are triggered on demand by IO, so by definition there is already IO underway, and further IO would naturally deadlock. On resume, this path is triggered when the running system tries to continue using its devices. If it cannot then the resume will fail; to try to avoid this we let it dip into the emergency pools.
