The first DASD that is set online for a specific logical control unit
has to do certain setup steps on the storage server to make full use
of it, for example it will enable PAV.
The features and characteristics reported by the storage server will
depend on this setup, so all other devices on the same LCU will need
to wait for the setup to be finished.

Most of the error conditions reported by a FICON storage server
indicate situations which can be recovered. Sometimes the host just
needs to retry an I/O request, but sometimes the recovery
is more complex and requires the device driver to wait, choose
a different path, etc.
The DASD device driver has a fully featured error recovery
for normal block layer I/O, but not for internal I/O request which
are for example used during the device bring up.
This can lead to situations where the IPL of a system fails because
DASD devices are not properly recognized.
This patch will extend the internal I/O handling to use the existing
error recovery procedures.

The DASD device driver needs to explicitly enable the prefix command
on the storage server, before it can be used. Originally we enabled
this command along with others only if we wanted to support PAV.
However, today we require this command for other features like
High Performance FICON as well, so we need to always enable prefix.

When a DASD device is used with the DIAG discipline, the DIAG
initialization will indicate success or error with a respective
return code. So far we have interpreted a return code of 4 as error,
but it actually means that the initialization was successful, but
the device is read-only. To allow read-only devices to be used with
DIAG we need to accept a return code of 4 as success.
Re-initialization of the DIAG access is also part of the DIAG error
recovery. If we find that the access mode of a device has been
changed from writable to read-only while the device was in use,
we print an error message.

There is a race while re-reading the device characteristics. After
cleaning the memory area a cqr is build which reads the device
characteristics. This may take a rather long time and the device
characteristics structure is zero during this. Now it could be
possible that the block tasklet starts working and a new cqr will be
build. The build_cp command refers to the device characteristics
structure and this may lead into a divide by zero exception.
Fix this by re-reading the device characteristics into a temporary
structur and copy the data to the original structure. Also take the
ccwdev_lock.

The DASD device driver reads the feature codes of a device during
device initialization. These codes are later used to determine the
availability of advanced features like PAV or High Performance FICON.
Some very old devices do not support the command to read feature
codes and the initialization routine fails.
As the feature codes are not necessary for basic DASD operations, we
can support such devices by just ignoring missing feature codes.

Currently in the suspend process checksums for the XPRAM partitions are
created and stored. During the resume process it is checked,
if the checksums are still the same. If this is not the case, a kernel panic
is triggered. Unfortunately this prevents XPRAM from beeing used as suspend
device, because in this case after the checksum has been created, the
memory image is written to XPRAM and therefore the contents of the suspend
partition is changed. In order to allow XPRAM to be used as suspend device,
this patch removes the checksum validation.

To set a dasd online dasd_change_state is called twice. The first
cycle will schedule initial analysis of the device, set the rc to
-EAGAIN and will not touch the device state any more.
The initial analysis will in turn call dasd_change_state to increase
the state to the final DASD_STATE_ONLINE.
If the dasd_change_state on the second thread outruns the other one
both finish with the state set to DASD_STATE_ONLINE and the device
refcount will be decreased by 2.
Fix this by leaving dasd_change_state on rc == -EAGAIN so that the
refcount will always be decreased by 1.

Introduce the power management callbacks to the dasd driver. On suspend
the dasd devices are stopped and removed from the focus of alias
management.
On resume they are reinitialized by rereading the device characteristics
and adding the device to the alias management.
In case the device has gone away during suspend it will caught in the
suspend state with stopped flag set to UNRESUMED. After it appears again
the restore function is called again.

Some functions called as a late_initcall depend on completely
initialized devices. Since commit
f3445a1a656bc26b07946cc6d20de1ef07c8d116 the dasd driver uses the
new async framework and relies on the fact that synchronization is
done in prepare_namespace which is called after the late_initcalls.
Fix this by calling async_synchronize_full at the end of the related
init functions.

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.

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.

There are many [__]blk_end_request() call sites which call it with
full request length and expect full completion. Many of them ensure
that the request actually completes by doing BUG_ON() the return
value, which is awkward and error-prone.
This patch adds [__]blk_end_request_all() which takes @rq and @error
and fully completes the request. BUG_ON() is added to to ensure that
this actually happens.
Most conversions are simple but there are a few noteworthy ones.
* cdrom/viocd: viocd_end_request() replaced with direct calls to
__blk_end_request_all().
* s390/block/dasd: dasd_end_request() replaced with direct calls to
__blk_end_request_all().
* s390/char/tape_block: tapeblock_end_request() replaced with direct

The dasd driver can automatically online detected dasds, which
especially important for finding the root device. Currently,
it will wait for each online operation to finish individually,
which may take long if many dasds need to be onlined. When using
the new async framework, these onlining operations can run in
parallel and presence of the root device is ensured by the fact
that prepare_namespace() waits for all async threads to finish.

Setting ->owner as done currently (pde->owner = THIS_MODULE) is racy
as correctly noted at bug #12454. Someone can lookup entry with NULL
->owner, thus not pinning enything, and release it later resulting
in module refcount underflow.
We can keep ->owner and supply it at registration time like ->proc_fops
and ->data.
But this leaves ->owner as easy-manipulative field (just one C assignment)
and somebody will forget to unpin previous/pin current module when
switching ->owner. ->proc_fops is declared as "const" which should give
some thoughts.
->read_proc/->write_proc were just fixed to not require ->owner for
protection.
rmmod'ed directories will be empty and return "." and ".." -- no harm.
And directories with tricky enough readdir and lookup shouldn't be modular.
We definitely don't want such modular code.
Removing ->owner will also make PDE smaller.
So, let's nuke it.
Kudos to Jeff Layton for reminding about this, let's say, oversight.

never larger then 15, so 12 bits of the head number can be redefined
to be part of the cylinder address.

Permission is now granted to the subsystem to format write R0 with:
* an ID = CCHHR, where CC = physical cylinder number,
HH = physical head number, and R = 0
* a key length of zero
* a data length of eight
* a data field containing all zeros

In dasd_device_set_timer and dasd_block_set_timer we interpret the
return value of mod_timer in a wrong way. If the timer expires in
the small window between our check of timer_pending and the call to
mod_timer, then the timer will be set, mod_timer returns zero and
we will call add_timer for a timer that is already pending.
As del_timer and mod_timer do all the necessary checking themselves,
we can simplify our code and remove the race a the same time.
