Pull device mapper fixes from Mike Snitzer: "Apologies for not pressing this request-based DM partial completion issue further, it was an oversight on my part. We'll have to get it fixed up properly and revisit for a future release. - Revert block and DM core changes the removed request-based DM's ability to handle partial request completions -- otherwise with the current SCSI LLDs these changes could lead to silent data corruption. - Fix two DM version bumps that were missing from the initial 4.2 DM pull request (enabled userspace lvm2 to know certain changes have been made)" * tag 'dm-4.2-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm: dm cache policy smq: fix "default" version to be 1.4.0 dm: bump the ioctl version to 4.32.0 Revert "block, dm: don't copy bios for request clones" Revert "dm: do not allocate any mempools for blk-mq request-based DM"

This reverts commit 5f1b670d0bef508a5554d92525f5f6d00d640b38. Justification for revert as reported in this dm-devel post: https://www.redhat.com/archives/dm-devel/2015-June/msg00160.html this change should not be pushed to mainline yet. Firstly, Christoph has a newer version of the patch that fixes silent data corruption problem: https://www.redhat.com/archives/dm-devel/2015-May/msg00229.html And the new version still depends on LLDDs to always complete requests to the end when error happens, while block API doesn't enforce such a requirement. If the assumption is ever broken, the inconsistency between request and bio (e.g. rq->__sector and rq->bio) will cause silent data corruption: https://www.redhat.com/archives/dm-devel/2015-June/msg00022.html Reported-by: Junichi Nomura Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer

Pull core block IO update from Jens Axboe: "Nothing really major in here, mostly a collection of smaller optimizations and cleanups, mixed with various fixes. In more detail, this contains: - Addition of policy specific data to blkcg for block cgroups. From Arianna Avanzini. - Various cleanups around command types from Christoph. - Cleanup of the suspend block I/O path from Christoph. - Plugging updates from Shaohua and Jeff Moyer, for blk-mq. - Eliminating atomic inc/dec of both remaining IO count and reference count in a bio. From me. - Fixes for SG gap and chunk size support for data-less (discards) IO, so we can merge these better. From me. - Small restructuring of blk-mq shared tag support, freeing drivers from iterating hardware queues. From Keith Busch. - A few cfq-iosched tweaks, from Tahsin Erdogan and me.

block: add blk_set_queue_dying() to blkdev.h

We export this function and NVMe wants to use it, but for some reason it was never added to the block header. Do that. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

writeback, blkcg: restructure blk_{set|clear}_queue_congested()

2015-06-02T14:33:35Z

blk_{set|clear}_queue_congested() take @q and set or clear, respectively, the congestion state of its bdi's root wb. Because bdi used to be able to handle congestion state only on the root wb, the callers of those functions tested whether the congestion is on the root blkcg and skipped if not. This is cumbersome and makes implementation of per cgroup bdi_writeback congestion state propagation difficult. This patch renames blk_{set|clear}_queue_congested() to blk_{set|clear}_congested(), and makes them take request_list instead of request_queue and test whether the specified request_list is the root one before updating bdi_writeback congestion state. This makes the tests in the callers unnecessary and simplifies them. As there are no external users of these functions, the definitions are moved from include/linux/blkdev.h to block/blk-core.c. This patch doesn't introduce any noticeable behavior difference. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo Cc: Jens Axboe Cc: Jan Kara Cc: Vivek Goyal Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

writeback: separate out include/linux/backing-dev-defs.h

2015-06-02T14:33:34Z

With the planned cgroup writeback support, backing-dev related declarations will be more widely used across block and cgroup; unfortunately, including backing-dev.h from include/linux/blkdev.h makes cyclic include dependency quite likely. This patch separates out backing-dev-defs.h which only has the essential definitions and updates blkdev.h to include it. c files which need access to more backing-dev details now include backing-dev.h directly. This takes backing-dev.h off the common include dependency chain making it a lot easier to use it across block and cgroup. v2: fs/fat build failure fixed.
