block: unify request timeout handling

2008-10-09T06:56:13Z

Right now SCSI and others do their own command timeout handling. Move those bits to the block layer. Instead of having a timer per command, we try to be a bit more clever and simply have one per-queue. This avoids the overhead of having to tear down and setup a timer for each command, so it will result in a lot less timer fiddling. Signed-off-by: Mike Anderson Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

allow userspace to modify scsi command filter on per device basis

2008-07-03T11:21:14Z

This patch exports the per-gendisk command filter to user space through sysfs, so it can be changed by the system administrator. All users of the old cmd filter have been converted to use the new one. Original patch from Peter Jones. Signed-off-by: Adel Gadllah Signed-off-by: Peter Jones Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

block: Block layer data integrity support

2008-07-03T11:21:13Z

Some block devices support verifying the integrity of requests by way of checksums or other protection information that is submitted along with the I/O. This patch implements support for generating and verifying integrity metadata, as well as correctly merging, splitting and cloning bios and requests that have this extra information attached. See Documentation/block/data-integrity.txt for more information. Signed-off-by: Martin K. Petersen Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

block: ll_rw_blk.c split, add blk-merge.c

block: continue ll_rw_blk.c splitup

2008-01-29T20:55:08Z

Adds files for barrier handling, rq execution, io context handling, mapping data to requests, and queue settings. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

block: split tag and sysfs handling from blk-core.c

2008-01-29T20:55:07Z

Seperates the tag and sysfs handling from ll_rw_blk. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

block: first step of splitting ll_rw_blk, rename it

2008-01-29T20:55:05Z

Then we retain history in blk-core.c Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

[BLOCK] Only include the compat ioctl code if CONFIG_BLOCK is set

2007-10-12T10:50:41Z

Add an extra CONFIG_BLOCK_COMPAT that we can use in the Makefile Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

compat_ioctl: move common block ioctls to compat_blkdev_ioctl

2007-10-10T07:26:00Z

Make compat_blkdev_ioctl and blkdev_ioctl reflect the respective native versions. This is somewhat more efficient and makes it easier to keep the two in sync. Also get rid of the bogus handling for broken_blkgetsize and the duplicate entry for BLKRASET. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe
