Merge branch 'for-3.20/drivers' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block

2015-02-12T22:30:53Z

Pull block driver changes from Jens Axboe: "This contains: - The 4k/partition fixes for brd from Boaz/Matthew. - A few xen front/back block fixes from David Vrabel and Roger Pau Monne. - Floppy changes from Takashi, cleaning the device file creation. - Switching libata to use the new blk-mq tagging policy, removing code (and a suboptimal implementation) from libata. This will throw you a merge conflict, since a bug in the original libata tagging code was fixed since this code was branched. Trivial. From Shaohua. - Conversion of loop to blk-mq, from Ming Lei. - Cleanup of the io_schedule() handling in bsg from Peter Zijlstra. He claims it improves on unreadable code, which will cost him a beer. - Maintainer update or NDB, now handled by Markus Pargmann. - NVMe: - Optimization from me that avoids a kmalloc/kfree per IO for smaller (<= 8KB) IO. This cuts about 1% of high IOPS CPU overhead. - Removal of (now) dead RCU code, a relic from before NVMe was converted to blk-mq" * 'for-3.20/drivers' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block: xen-blkback: default to X86_32 ABI on x86 xen-blkfront: fix accounting of reqs when migrating xen-blkback,xen-blkfront: add myself as maintainer block: Simplify bsg complete all floppy: Avoid manual call of device_create_file() NVMe: avoid kmalloc/kfree for smaller IO MAINTAINERS: Update NBD maintainer libata: make sata_sil24 use fifo tag allocator libata: move sas ata tag allocation to libata-scsi.c libata: use blk taging NVMe: within nvme_free_queues(), delete RCU sychro/deferred free null_blk: suppress invalid partition info brd: Request from fdisk 4k alignment brd: Fix all partitions BUGs axonram: Fix bug in direct_access loop: add blk-mq.h include block: loop: don't handle REQ_FUA explicitly block: loop: introduce lo_discard() and lo_req_flush() block: loop: say goodby to bio block: loop: improve performance via blk-mq

block: Simplify bsg complete all

2015-02-04T16:57:52Z

It took me a few tries to figure out what this code did; lets rewrite it into a more regular form. The thing that makes this one 'special' is the BSG_F_BLOCK flag, if that is not set we're not supposed/allowed to block and should spin wait for completion. The (new) io_wait_event() will never see a false condition in case of the spinning and we will therefore not block. Cc: Linus Torvalds Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

sched/wait: Introduce wait_on_bit_timeout()

2015-02-04T06:52:32Z

Add a new wait_on_bit_timeout() helper, basically the same as wait_on_bit() except that it also takes a 'timeout' parameter. All the building blocks like bit_wait_timeout() and out_of_line_wait_on_bit_timeout() are already in place so the addition is rather simple.

sched/wait: Remove might_sleep() from wait_event_cmd()

2015-02-03T11:14:25Z

The patch e22b886a8a43 ("sched/wait: Add might_sleep() checks") introduced a bug in the raid5 subsystem. The function raid5_quiesce() (and resize_stripes()) uses the 'cmd' part to release and acquire a spinlock (so we call the sleep primitives in atomic context), and therefore we cannot do the might_sleep() check. Remove it.

sched/wait: Reimplement wait_event_freezable()

2014-11-04T06:17:45Z

Provide better implementations of wait_event_freezable() APIs. The problem is with freezer_do_not_count(), it hides the thread from the freezer, even though this thread might not actually freeze/sleep at all.

sched/wait: Add might_sleep() checks

2014-10-28T09:55:23Z

Add more might_sleep() checks, suppose someone put a wait_event() like thing in a wait loop.. Can't put might_sleep() in ___wait_event() because there's the locked primitives which call ___wait_event() with locks held.

sched/wait: Provide infrastructure to deal with nested blocking

2014-10-28T09:55:15Z

There are a few places that call blocking primitives from wait loops, provide infrastructure to support this without the typical task_struct::state collision. We record the wakeup in wait_queue_t::flags which leaves task_struct::state free to be used by others.

SCHED: add some "wait..on_bit...timeout()" interfaces.

2014-09-25T12:23:57Z

In commit c1221321b7c25b53204447cff9949a6d5a7ddddc sched: Allow wait_on_bit_action() functions to support a timeout I suggested that a "wait_on_bit_timeout()" interface would not meet my need. This isn't true - I was just over-engineering. Including a 'private' field in wait_bit_key instead of a focused "timeout" field was just premature generalization. If some other use is ever found, it can be generalized or added later. So this patch renames "private" to "timeout" with a meaning "stop waiting when "jiffies" reaches or passes "timeout", and adds two of the many possible wait..bit..timeout() interfaces: wait_on_page_bit_killable_timeout(), which is the one I want to use, and out_of_line_wait_on_bit_timeout() which is a reasonably general example. Others can be added as needed. Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) Signed-off-by: NeilBrown Acked-by: Ingo Molnar Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust

sched/wait: Document timeout corner case

The timeout may elapse without 0 being returned, such as when waiting on an unused queue. Document this possibility.
