block: implement and enforce request peek/start/fetch

2009-05-11T07:52:18+00:00

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.

[ Impact: block request issue API cleanup, no functional change ]

paride: dequeue in-flight request

2009-05-11T07:52:16+00:00

pd/pf/pcd have track in-flight request by pd/pf/pcd_req.  They can be
converted to dequeueing model by updating fetching and completion
paths.  Convert them.

Note that removal of elv_next_request() call from pf_next_buf()
doesn't make any functional difference.  The path is traveled only
during partial completion of a request and elv_next_request() call
must return the same request anyway.

block: convert to pos and nr_sectors accessors

2009-05-11T07:50:54+00:00

With recent cleanups, there is no place where low level driver
directly manipulates request fields.  This means that the 'hard'
request fields always equal the !hard fields.  Convert all
rq->sectors, nr_sectors and current_nr_sectors references to
accessors.

While at it, drop superflous blk_rq_pos() < 0 test in swim.c.

[ Impact: use pos and nr_sectors accessors ]

block: replace end_request() with [__]blk_end_request_cur()

2009-04-28T05:37:36+00:00

end_request() has been kept around for backward compatibility;
however, it's about time for it to go away.

* There aren't too many users left.

* Its use of @updtodate is pretty confusing.

* In some cases, newer code ends up using mixture of end_request() and
  [__]blk_end_request[_all](), which is way too confusing.

So, add [__]blk_end_request_cur() and replace end_request() with it.
Most conversions are straightforward.  Noteworthy ones are...

* paride/pcd: next_request() updated to take 0/-errno instead of 1/0.

* paride/pf: pf_end_request() and next_request() updated to take
  0/-errno instead of 1/0.

* xd: xd_readwrite() updated to return 0/-errno instead of 1/0.

* mtd/mtd_blkdevs: blktrans_discard_request() updated to return
  0/-errno instead of 1/0.  Unnecessary local variable res
  initialization removed from mtd_blktrans_thread().

[PATCH] beginning of methods conversion

2008-10-21T11:47:32+00:00

To keep the size of changesets sane we split the switch by drivers;
to keep the damn thing bisectable we do the following:
	1) rename the affected methods, add ones with correct
prototypes, make (few) callers handle both.  That's this changeset.
	2) for each driver convert to new methods.  *ALL* drivers
are converted in this series.
	3) kill the old (renamed) methods.

Note that it _is_ a flagday; all in-tree drivers are converted and by the
end of this series no trace of old methods remain.  The only reason why
we do that this way is to keep the damn thing bisectable and allow per-driver
debugging if anything goes wrong.

New methods:
	open(bdev, mode)
	release(disk, mode)
	ioctl(bdev, mode, cmd, arg)		/* Called without BKL */
	compat_ioctl(bdev, mode, cmd, arg)
	locked_ioctl(bdev, mode, cmd, arg)	/* Called with BKL, legacy */

[BLOCK] Get rid of request_queue_t typedef

2007-07-24T07:28:11+00:00

Some of the code has been gradually transitioned to using the proper
struct request_queue, but there's lots left. So do a full sweet of
the kernel and get rid of this typedef and replace its uses with
the proper type.
